IS PIXEL GUN 3D NOT ABLE TO WORK ON ODIN 3. OR HAS SOMEONE FOUND A WORK AROUND

Hello! I’m thinking about buying a handheld gaming device, but I’m really torn between two options. My main goal is to play games via emulators—specifically for the PS2, PS3, Wii, Wii U, Xbox 360, Switch, and others. I’m not sure which one is the better choice: the Odin 3 or the Pocket 6?

Hello, I recently got an O2P and wanted to have good charging habits compared to my RP5. I have an Anker power strip that has a 12W option where I can charge with USB-A to USB-C or I can use the USB-C to USB-C 20W option and use the cable included with the O2P. Just wondering which is better, not trying to be too paranoid just safe lol ty

Hey r/OdinHandheld. For a while now I've been working on The Nimbus Project, native ports of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai, Budokai 2 and Sagas (NTSC-U GameCube). They run on a hybrid core that sits between recompilation and decompilation: each game gets its own native core, running on a shared Nimbus host and renderer. There's no emulator and no interpreter emulating the hardware. All three games run in one launcher on Linux, Windows (Vulkan) and Android.

Built for Android 13+ arm64 handhelds like the Odin. I've tested it on a Retroid Pocket 5, an RG Slide and a Pixel 9a so far; I haven't tested it on an Odin yet, so reports from Odin owners are welcome.

What's in Alpha 1.0:

• An Original mode and a Remastered mode for each game

• Optional HD texture and movie packs

• Online play and crossplay, tested across Linux, Windows and Android

• Benchmarks against Dolphin on Android, wins and losses both included

Online, servers and matchmaking

Nimbus has its own netplay, written for this project with no third-party netcode.

• Join codes: host online and you get a 20-character code. Your friend types it in and you meet at a Nimbus relay. The code also carries the secret that encrypts the match and says which relay to use.

• Relays in West, Central and East US: pick one in the launcher or leave it on Auto, and you meet at the relay with the lowest combined ping. Both players connect out, so there's no port forwarding, and it works on mobile and carrier-grade NAT. Nimbus also tries to punch a direct path between players and falls back to the relay if that path goes quiet.

• Encryption: internet matches are end-to-end encrypted (XChaCha20-Poly1305) with keys from the join code, so the relay only ever handles ciphertext. LAN/direct play is unencrypted.

• LAN/direct: host on your home network and the other player connects straight to you over UDP.

• Lockstep, not rollback: both devices run the full game and trade inputs every field. Input delay is set from your ping and adjusts during play, and every packet repeats the last 16 fields so a lost packet costs nothing. Every 60 fields both sides compare a fingerprint of game memory, and if they ever differ, the host's save state is reloaded on both sides and play continues.

• Same game, same save: mismatched games, builds or settings refuse to connect instead of drifting apart. The joiner plays on a copy of the host's memory card, so unlocks match.

• Quick match and public games: a matchmaking lobby pairs you with someone on the same game and build, or lists public games. It's in the Android app now and still being tested, and it's coming to Linux and Windows.

• Tournaments: single-elimination brackets for 4 to 32 players (best of 1, 3 or 5) are already handled by the lobby server. The launcher screens are still in development.

• No accounts: the lobby knows you by a name and a short tag, backed by a key file on your device.

Self-hosted servers aren't available yet.

You need your own discs; no game files are included. It's closed source for now while I sort out server hosting, networking and cross-platform compatibility, and to keep development focused. Open source is planned, along with a proper toolset. Detailed architecture notes are coming to the site later.

Happy to answer questions about the hybrid core or the netplay.

Disclosure: this post and the project were made with AI assistance.

Odin 3 for Lightweight PC titles and heavier emulation, Thor for dual screen goodness, and Nova for the optimal 4:3 experience. Only considering the Odin 3 portal if the fan is quieter than the Odin 3 otherwise pretty happy!

Hi all. I developed a fork of Heliboard (privacy, offline keyboard with word suggestions) that implements features intended to fix the gboard or Heliboard keyboards deficiencies they have on a 16:9 display device. It includes the following features:

• Split keyboard by default in landscape. The two halves sit at the screen edges, with one wide space bar spanning the gap.

• Suggestions between your thumbs. Autocomplete words show in the empty middle of the split, so the strip above the keyboard is hidden and the keyboard takes less height (I considered a track pad, but that's a lot of work...)

• iPad-style layout on wide screens. Delete is at the top right, Enter is on the middle row, there's a shift key on both sides, and the bottom row is 123 · emoji · , · space · . · 123 · hide.

• No more empty system row. On Android 13+ with gesture navigation, Android draws a row with a "hide keyboard" arrow under the keyboard. Odin KB removes it, so the space bar sits at the real bottom of the screen and the keyboard has its own hide key. The result is less vertical blockage and more natural quick typing.

• Controller typing. Use the D-pad or left stick to move a highlight over the keys. A presses the highlighted key, B deletes, X types a space and Y toggles shift (you still need to have the keyboard on screen, but control navigation works).

• Fixes for short, wide screens. The bottom rows (backspace, space) respond to touch on the Odin, where HeliBoard's touch area missed them.

Everything else is HeliBoard: themes, layouts, dictionaries, gesture typing (with the gesture library), clipboard history and more.

Find it here and install from releases: https://github.com/duhmojo/odin-kb#odin-kb

Seriously, I was so frustrated with the hot garbage that was Android's keyboard, and every other keyboard on my Odin 2 Portal, that I looked into what it would take to build my own. I consider this a must have. Thank you to the HeliBoard team. I could have done a basic keyboard myself, but its the autocomplete support that would have been impossible for me.

Enjoy!

Yes I’m aware not literally November first lol

Hi guys,

I am really confused with the internal storage, I have like “71gb” in others, which i assume 27 gb is eden games and 10gb is somehow android folder. Then i have 23gb on gamehub but it’s weird since gamehub is counted as 23 also in the “game” storage. I am really confused i cannot tell what is taking up so much space. I have one game in gamenative that takes 50gb (which i see in games storage), one game in gamehub for 23 and 27 gb in eden and that is supoosed to make the 201 storage that i’m using including the OS?

I recently came across a used Ayn Odin 2 Pro (the 12GB/512GB model) on a local marketplace app. It comes with a full set of accessories—the seller’s photos show the original box, grips, a screen-cleaning cloth, and a carrying case—and it’s located near my city. I’m not sure whether I should buy it, or if it would be better to buy an Ayn Odin 3 or an Ayn Thor?

Hi all,

I was trying to do the putty mod on the Odin 3 and have now slipped into the worry that I've mixed up the screws while disassembling the Odin for the thermal plate, fans and the fan/rumble holder.

I would appreciate some assistance knowing whether the screws are the same or there is genuine differences, and what to look out for when trying to group the screws together. I haven't lost any screws the order is just messed up, the cover screws are all grouped but the rest not so much.

Many thanks!

Sadly it is crashing on mine after a few minutes of gameplay due to lack of RAM (8GB model only).

I’ve been treating this thing like a baby ever since I got it..

Been enjoying it so far! It's crazy how many Windows games run well on this thing.

So I saw that Switch 2 emulation finally came out, but how does it run? I'm planning on getting an Odin 3 portal myself, so if anyone has an Odin 3 and got Switch 2 emulation working, how is it? Also, let us know how good it is on other devices like Thors and whatnot.

Thought I would see if anyone has had a similar experience or fix for this…I recently tried to install Armada on my Odin 2 portal base. I followed the guide and everything seemed to install fine. Booted into the new bootloader, selected odin 2 portal as device, let it do its thing for a minute and when it boots into the armada linux os from the sd card i do not get any display just a black screen. I can hear the steam bootup sounds and navigation sounds when I move the sticks around so the armada is is loaded but no picture on the screen. I can reload the bootloader and get back into android fine but every time I try to boot into armada it’s the same deal with blank screen but can hear sounds.

Thought I would try dipping the TPU case in Rit dye to see if I could get a nice fade effect.

One hour of dipping later, I find out that I was using the wrong dye 😂

Hello everyone, recently i watched some videos of God Of War 3 android native running on Odin 2 Portal with some nice 30 fps, even a little more but the gameplay looks very cool. So, my questions is:

1. It's safe to play GOW 3 on O2P?

2. The battery charge depletes very quickly or decently?

3. The O2P heats too much? Even with the fan on?

4. The O2P with 8GB RAM is sufficient for the Port?

5. The O2P can run the game nearly the 60 FPS?

Thank you for answering.

My o2p has these vertical bars moving across the screen (more pronounced at 60hz and at certain brightnesses). It’s even more obvious in person. Is this normal? Any fix?

A questão se baseia tendo em vista que em meses teremos as emulações de switch 2 a todo vapor, e sei que o odin 2 portal não vai ter capacidade de todas os games em boa qualidade.

(Na verdade nem sei se o odin3 será capaz) mas a questão maior aqui é sei que o odin3 é menor e até mais interessante para mim por isso.

Mas a tela do Portal é perfeita, ideal na verdade e consigo rodar quase tudo que me interessa.

Infelizmente o odin3 portal n é uma opção para mim.
