Hey Guys,
After having to ditch my old version (1.8.10 RC16) because of the CoC update, I decided to give Memu a try, since BS1 had been giving me some problems, being a memory-hog, opening dozens of icons in my systray, etc. Well I installed/uninstalled Memu 5 or 6 times, but can't get it to load CoC. It either freezes during Memu startup, or freezes during CoC startup, never got any further than that. I saw someone mention an emulator called Nox, and it looks almost identical to Memu as far as its GUI goes, what's under the hood, I couldn't begin to guess. But it works on my setup, where Memu won't.
As I expected, when I try to run CF with it, CF says "Could not find suitable Android emulator." No surprise there, but thought it was worth a shot.
I'm going to give BS2 a try. And if that doesn't work, I'll reinstall BS1. But once all the work on the Beta is over, which I realize might be a while, it might be a good idea to see if you can get CF working with Nox. It looks a million times better than my old BS1 does graphically, and seems to run (CoC at least) at perfect speeds. That's probably the case with Memu as well, but I'm sure I'm not the only person it won't work for.
Edit: actually Nox appears fairly buggy on my system as well. When I just tried to shut it down, it hung and had to be forced closed. Back to BlueStacks for me it seems.
