* Install <code>libshacccg.suprx</code>, follow this [https://cimmerian.gitbook.io/vita-troubleshooting-guide/shader-compiler/extract-libshacccg.suprx guide]
** Some games rely on 3D states (such as Pokemon Diamond), they will get stuck at titlescreen.
* It's recommend overclock your vita, by default they are unchanged
* No saves.
* Create the folder ux0:dsvita and put your roms there
* Incomplete 2D rendering:

=== '''Known limitations and issues''' ===
== Installation ==
# '''No 3D support:'''
Grab the latest vpk from [https://github.com/Grarak/DSVita/releases releases].
#* Games that rely on 3D rendering (such as ''Pokémon Diamond'' ) freeze at the splash screen because 3D states are not implemented.
 
# '''No save game support:'''
Install <code>libshacccg.suprx</code>, follow this [https://cimmerian.gitbook.io/vita-troubleshooting-guide/shader-compiler/extract-libshacccg.suprx guide].
#* Currently, the emulator does not support saving game progress.
 
# '''Incomplete 2D rendering:'''
It's recommend overclock your vita, by default they are unchanged.
#* 2D graphical representation is not fully implemented, causing potential visual problems in games.
 
# '''No Alpha Blending:'''
Create the folder ux0:dsvita and put your roms there.
#* Transparency effects do not work, which may affect the visual appearance of some games.
# '''Crash on unimplemented drawing modes:'''
#* The emulator may crash if you try to use unsupported drawing modes.
# '''ARM7 HLE (High-Level Emulation) limited:'''
#* Most games do not work properly with ARM7 HLE emulation. It is recommended to disable it if certain games do not launch correctly.
