Description

Parallel plugin itself is not available on Android x86. I see a Linux x86 version, but not Android.

I understand Mupen64plus is available but old Parallel core is the only one that provides playable speed on my devices.

I've tried many different configurations of Mupen64plus but none provide the smooth playable speed of Parallel.

Is it possible to build for x86 Android, or provide an old build, if it was ever designed for x86 Android?

Use case is x86 Chromebook with Android.

Thank you.

Research direction

Begin by locating the existing Linux x86 build and any Android target configuration, then compare how the Parallel core is built for each platform. Confirm whether an Android x86 target is feasible and whether an old build exists; completion would require a working x86 Android build or a documented conclusion that it cannot be provided.
