Vita Moonlight Alpha 6, more bug fixes
Developer d3m3vilurr is back at it with another Moonlight update that fixes quite a few bugs with is one of my favourite applications for the Vita. After doing some testing myself I can report that all the issues I had with Vita Moonlight and the GeForce Experience 3.x builds seem to be all gone: first I wouldn’t get image, then my Vita refused to pair with my computer and would crash every time during the pairing process. Now I think it’s safe to tell any users who were on the fence with GFE 3.0+ that you can update freely and still enjoy your PC games on your Vita, whenever you feel like. This update also brings back the analog sticks for Vita 2000 users, as well as fixing some memory leaks and issues with control remapping.
What is Vita Moonlight?
Moonlight is an open-source implementation of the nVidia GameStream client that allows you to stream your Steam games (and some non-steam ones) to a mobile device of your choice. It allows for high-quality streaming with minimal to no input lag of your PC games. Originally the GameStream system only allowed to stream to nVidia Shield devices, but Moonlight allowed people to stream to their favorite devices and now we can use it on our Vitas too. You can check is your GPU is supported here.

I take it that GFE is required to run this?
YES, Nvidia Graphic Experience is needed, even your graphic card need tobe supported nvidia game stream too
If your graphic card not supported like me Nvidia 750M, you can go to nvidia community search for the patch to enable nvidia game streaming, kinda running some script run some python patch to verify that your graphic is OK to nvidia server, then the service will be enabled, now my Nvidia 750M support game stream tho~
So it didnt work for AMD Card user?
It won’t.
First to say fist!!!!!
-_-
Most useful homebrew on the Vita for me.
i will try this!
The link to the Gpu requirement s misleading, nvidia game streaming tech is in fact only supported by 600 series and up, too bad for my gtx 460:(
I see nothing wrong – the requirements page is accurate (this article links to it). In fact, not just ‘600’ series or higher, but must be GTX-class too (thus GTs like GT730 are out).
Its only supported by GTX series cards. not GT series
The GTX 460 is part of the GTX series….
