Read the selected release
PGO vs MSVC vs Standard
Decode the build names before you choose. PGO describes an optimisation method; MSVC names a compiler, so a package can be both.
MSVC
Built with Microsoft's compiler toolchain. Check this release's notes for any package-specific dependencies.
Standard
A package without a PGO label. Read its own build notes to see which features and dependencies apply.
Notes for build-83
Read the package-specific details for this release before installing.
Linux packages include standard and PGO builds for x86_64 and aarch64. The PGO builds are recommended; they use profile-guided optimization.
The Linux AppImage is self-contained and requires glibc 2.39 or newer. The Linux tar.gz uses system libraries, including Qt 6 and the usual libraries.
The Windows standard MSVC zip is suggested if graphical issues occur on other builds. The PGO zip is built with MinGW clang, bundles its own DLLs, and does not require the Visual C++ redistributable.
The macOS ARM64 package requires macOS 15 or newer and is not notarized.
Performance and compatibility vary by game, scene, and hardware; the successful Ocarina of Time perf9 test is not a cross-game performance guarantee.
The newer Frizti performance ports, FSR3 frame-generation fixes, Bananza bitmap optimization, and Dark's Ocarina Dynamic FPS patch are not included.

How to Install After Downloading
Extract, then launch
Extract the selected archive into a stable folder, keep its companion files beside it, and launch lichii.exe from that folder.
Run the published package
For an AppImage, make the downloaded file executable before launching it. For a tar.gz build, extract it with its companion files and check the release notes for any required system libraries.
Linux setupMove the app bundle
Open the published macOS package, move the .app into Applications, then verify the official release source before the first launch.

Download FAQ
Download FAQ
How do I share my exact build selection?
Choose your filters, apply them, and copy the address bar. The link includes the build, OS, architecture, and build type.
What if the file I downloaded has a different name?
Check the file against the asset on its GitHub release page before opening it. A familiar-looking name alone is not enough to identify a package.
Does this site host the downloads?
No. Download buttons link directly to official GitHub release assets.
Should I update over a build that already works?
Keep a copy of the working application and back up your saves and configuration before trying a new release. See the setup guide for installation steps.
The download was interrupted. Can the verifier repair it?
No. Download the file again from its official link, then check the completed file. The verifier compares files; it does not repair them.
