• If you want get more FPS and stability, use root version (you need root rights on your device)

Configuring

You can choose to use environment variables, there are 3 files, DXVK_D8VK.conf, Box64Droid.conf and DXVK_D8VK.conf. These files are created and found in the /sdcard/Box64Droid/ folder after the first Box64Droid run.

Known issues

• Error when updating Termux packages. Clear Termux data will help.
• Android 12+ can kill Termux, you may get [Process completed (signal 9) - press Enter], to fix run this command in adb shell: adb shell "/system/bin/device_config put activity_manager max_phantom_processes 2147483647"
• "Control" menu in Wine (in Wine Proton 8.0-2 working fine) shows nothing. You can just open control using "Run"
• Box64Droid can exit after start. This is a TFM issue, no have idea why and how to fix.
• Winetricks runs a long of time when Proton installed (non-root version)

Things to note

Some issues/instabilities can happen when using Box86 and Box64 in proot environment, so it's not recommended to use Box86 and Box64 in proot as debug/testing environment, there are better options for that
