There are other Android emulators out there and they all have their quirks. This one seems to be the most stable with the tools needed to use Pathbuilder 2e well. MSI App Player is a stripped down and more compatible version of BlueStacks. It creates a Sandbox virtual PC and runs Android in it, with full functionality of a Galaxy S9. So you can't save or load files from you PC into the box unless you go through a virtual drive, like drop box or google drive. Since google drive is native to it, it's the easiest to use. Plus it allows you to retrieve it at other locations. If you have an AMD chip instead of Intel, it will give you some warnings about VT and so forth. Just ignore them. If you get the VT warning on an Intel chip, don't worry about it, as its not needed for Pathbuilder. You do have to log in with your google
account like you would if setting up a new smart phone, but non-google
data doesn't go anywhere but in the sandbox the program creates. Having an AMD processor has its drawbacks. On Intel processors is works like a champ! In fact on my old i3 quad-core with 4gm memory it works fantastic. You can change settings and so forth on a non-AMD chipset just fine; very stable. It's stable on the AMD chipset so long as you don't try to change the settings our use speed boost; then it just shuts off without warning - the standard setting work just fine, so it shouldn't be an issue if you have an AMD chip like I do on the home theater PC.


Where on here it drops is also a concern... want to find it and get it printed out for all my players, as well as digest it, before the next game session.
