Azahar will no longer offer Anbernic-specific support after the manufacturer promoted AzaharPlus. Earlier interviews with OpenSauce and PabloMK7 offer context.

The two developers behind Azahar have announced that they’re dropping official support for Anbernic retro handhelds, following the company’s decision to promote its upcoming 3DS-esque dual screen RG DDS using AzaharPlus, an unofficial fork of the 3DS emulator.

I spoke at length with Azahar’s two lead developers, OpenSauce and PabloMK7, some time ago for a separate interview, and looking back through their answers, I realized a few were particularly relevant to what’s happening now. I’ve included some of those comments in this article, alongside a look at what prompted the decision, the differences between Azahar and AzaharPlus, and what it might mean for Anbernic owners.

Again, this is a much, much shorter ‘article’ than my usual work, so it is on my NeoCities page/experiment this time, rather than my usual site :)

    Speaking of Citra.

    Does anyone know a place to download “Citra-Nightly-1782.AppImage”?

    It is the last version that supports OpenGL 3.3 and the Linux binary won’t run without outdated libraries that are themselves difficult to obtain. But the appimage bundles its dependencies.

    This archive.org page has copies of every release except the AppImage. :|

    This page links to the AppImage but the link is dead.
