Box64 is a powerful Linux Userspace x86_64 emulator, specifically designed for ARM64, RV64, and LoongArch Linux devices. This software has recently been updated, bringing enhancements that retro gaming enthusiasts will appreciate.Quote:
This version introduces DynaCache, a disk cache for the generated native code. It’s not enabled by default for now (but it will use a cache file if present). It can dramatically speed up the load of programs (try it with Linux Factorio, for example). This version also improves the handling of volatile metadata. There is a massive compatibility improvement for box32 and on all dynarec in general, too. And a few more function wrapping… => DynaCache for faster loading of programs, and to avoid runtime hiccups
=> Better box32 compatibility (much less “Out of Memory” errors)
=> Unity3D games on Wayland are working now
=> Volatile Metadata fully supported and handled, making games like Starfield just work.
=> More work on AVX support for RV64 & LA64. LA64 is almost there, while RV64 has Scalar-only support (no hardware vector support yet for AVX)
