I left this out when porting the collapse toggle, on the grounds that ARMSX2 found docking alone did not answer the complaint. That was right about docking being insufficient and wrong about it being unnecessary -- the two cover different halves of the same problem. Collapse answers 'I cannot select what is under you in the first place'; docking answers 'I have selected it and now you are sitting on top of it'. Selecting a widget in the top half moves the panel to the bottom, and back again otherwise. Halves rather than real overlap maths, on purpose: a panel that darts about as rectangles graze each other is less predictable than one that is simply never on the side being worked on. The stored drag offset means 'away from the anchored edge', so it flips sign with the anchor. ARMSX3 anchors the panel top-centre and offsets downward, so while docked to the bottom a +dy the user had nudged in would otherwise push the panel straight off the screen. Note for testing: this is only visible when selecting a widget in the TOP half. Most on-screen controls live in the lower half, so selecting a face button correctly leaves the panel where it is -- which is indistinguishable from nothing happening. Use a shoulder button.
ARMSX3
Uses the latest RPCS3 upstream code (the recent ARM64 improvements included).
Building
arm64-v8a and armv8.2 is supported. You need the Android SDK with NDK r27 or newer, CMake 3.30 or newer, and a JDK 17. Android Studio ships all of these.
Clone with submodules, then fetch the two third party checkouts that are not submodules:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX3.git
cd ARMSX3
git clone https://github.com/SnowflakePowered/librashader 3rdparty/librashader
git clone https://github.com/bylaws/libadrenotools android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/cpp/libadrenotools
Build the core. This is the long part and produces an unstripped library of around 1.3 GB:
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
cmake -B build-android -G Ninja \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$ANDROID_HOME/ndk/<version>/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake \
-DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-31 \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
cmake --build build-android --target rpcsx-android -j8
Strip it and put it where the app expects it:
llvm-strip --strip-unneeded build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so
cp build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so \
android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/jniLibs/arm64-v8a/
Then build the app:
cd android/armsx3-ui
export JAVA_HOME="/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jbr/Contents/Home"
./gradlew :app:assembleRelease
The apk lands in app/build/outputs/apk/release/.
Note that the core library has to be rebuilt and copied again whenever anything under rpcs3/ or android/src/ changes. Gradle does not build it for you.
The Discord Social SDK is proprietary and is not redistributed here. Get it from Discord's developer portal and drop it in app/libs/ and app/src/main/cpp/discord_sdk/ if you want that feature. The build skips it otherwise.
Running it needs PS3 firmware, which is not included. License
