Darkos is a project designed to run Windows x86_64 applications and games in Termux native GLIBC. It utilizes Box86 and Box64 to run Wine on android.

Installation:

Install Termux, Termux-X11 and Input Bridge v0.1.9.9 or Input Bridge v0.0.7 or X input Bridge for using game controller (Bluetooth/ usb) inside wine.

Open Termux and paste the following command:

curl -o install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmad1abbadi/darkos/main/installOS.sh && chmod +x install && ./install

Darkos will automatically start after installation is complete. Remember each time you open Termux, Darkos will auto-start.

To exit Darkos and use Termux normally, press '1' within the first 4 seconds. Otherwise, Darkos will start and run Wine + Termux-X11.

Features:

Native Gstreamer support, which is required for games like:
- resident evil 7
- devil may cry 5
- amid evil
Dedicated configuration app
Many games will work without altering box64 dynarec settings

And many more, you can discover by your self.

Configuration:

Box64/Box86 Configuration + Dynarec

The configuration can be easily done from the Darkos configuration app. Simply modify the Box options, click "Apply," and then "Reboot" to apply the changes.
