JIT & Save States
For newer devices, it'd be really cool if iNDS would support JIT emulation (iOS 14.2+), similar to how it's implemented in UTM or DolphiniOS. Also, being able to import save states (from 3rd parties), so you don't have to redo the entire game if you switch to a new device would be sweet!
Thank you,
Anthony Wu
Regarding JIT: We already have a thread open about this #16. Unfortunately (and I'm going to post this on the thread now), it looks like JIT was removed in 14.4 and therefore it doesn't really make sense to support it at this point. It was a dream come true during 14.2, but alas it looks like that was just a dream too.
Regarding Save States: What do you mean by "third-party" save states. iNDS already supports importing save files or save stats (though the latter is not recommended due to possible incompatibility issues) through a file explorer, iTunes/Finder, or through Dropbox sync.
A direct example for me is Ace Attorney Investigations 2. By patching the rom and importing into iNDS, I was able to play on my iOS device. Yet, when I deleted the app, all my game progress was gone (btw, this game progresses in cases Case 1-Case 2-etc.), so I'd have to replay the first two cases over again to continue at case 3. I wanted to import a .dsv file for a case 3 save state (Which works in Desmume) into Dropbox yet it had no effect and began from Case 1 as normal.
To Replicate: Follow this https://gbatemp.net/threads/ace-attorney-investigation-2-prosecutors-path-final-release.367451/ And try to import these save states: https://www.mediafire.com/file/m353oyn9caair5d/gk2_saves.7z/file
Sidenote: I cannot thank you enough for the development of this app. It can use touchscreen unlike Delta.
btw, I know you guys are busy so you can download the patched rom from https://youtu.be/tLzqlJpsF50
