We happily accept monetary donations or donated games and hardware. We centralize the translation work there, and periodically upstream translations. If you want to contribute to the user interface translation, please check out the citra project on transifex. You should also contact any of the developers in the forum in order to know about the current state of the emulator because the TODO list isn't maintained anymore. If you want to contribute please take a look at the Contributor's Guide and Developer Information. It's also where our central repository is hosted. Most of the development happens on GitHub. Need help? Check out our asking for help guide.įor development discussion, please join us on our Discord server or at #citra-dev on freenode. Please read the FAQ before getting started with the project. (Playable here means compatibility of at least "Okay" on our game compatibility list.)Ĭitra is licensed under the GPLv2 (or any later version). It is written with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows, Linux and macOS.Ĭitra emulates a subset of 3DS hardware and therefore is useful for running/debugging homebrew applications, and it is also able to run many commercial games! Some of these do not run at a playable state, but we are working every day to advance the project forward.
An emulator without a community to enjoy it is a sad sight, so we are ecstatic that we have such an incredible community surrounding Citra.BEFORE FILING AN ISSUE, READ THE RELEVANT SECTION IN THE CONTRIBUTING FILE!!! CitraĬitra is an experimental open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator/debugger written in C++. We appreciate your continued support and patience.
We are actively looking for a dedicated Android developer to step up and focus on Android specific improvments, but in the meantime, our developers are doing the best they can to eventually reach feature parity with the Desktop version. Google seems to arbitrarily reject our updates and this has caused weeks of delays in the past, but we’re doing our best to work around these issues and push out builds that have new features, improved stability, and better performance.Ĭitra Android also greatly benefits from most improvements to the Desktop version of Citra. We would also like to address any concerns regarding a slowdown in development on Citra Android.ĭue to the nature of the Google Play Store, we are only able to release updates when enough improvement warrants a new release. Remember to create normal saves occasionally to prevent loss of progress in the event the save state becomes corrupt or incompatible with a future version of Citra. Reminder: Do not rely on Save States entirely.

Today is no different, we are happy to announce another update to Citra Android featuring support for Save States. We have now released around a dozen updates in the past few months, with each one bringing us closer to that goal. This is an absolutely incredible achievement and your enthusiasm is a big factor in what drives development of the app.Īt the time of release, we said that we would put our efforts into bringing feature parity between the desktop and Android versions. App InstallsĬitra Android has now reached 500,000+ installs on the Google Play Store! We wanted to take this opportunity to make an announcement and answer a few questions many of you have had. It’s been a few months since our Android version released and its reception has been absolutely wonderful.
