Suggestions for ports #4

[ExarKunIv]

Ports

there are a few that are marked as doesn't work that might. i cant test them since my job has anything game related blocked. So that's why they don't have a check mark.

if they work for you please let me know.

after more testings i will go back and see about doing a recheck on my Pi4 and then work on getting the ones that don't work on the Pi5 working. if possible

@ExarKunIv Hi,
I have a new suggestion for a port, which I stumbled over some days ago:
https://github.com/ZDoom/Raze
As the Github suggests, it's based on the GZDoom backend, which allows a lot of finetuning.

It's an implementation of nearly all Build games (especially Duke3d, Shadow Warrior, Redneck Rampage, Blood, Nam, Exhumed). The upside is that it supports Vulcan, GL and GLES renderer, the downside is that it's mainly made for Windows. I managed to compile and run it on my RPi5. But it was a pita to set up. Also the mouse seems to stop working on some games at some time. It still works in the menus but not in-game.
I'm still in the exploring phase, and the development of raze is ongoing, but I think it might very well replace all the other ports at some point in the future.

[ExarKunIv]

@ecto i have come across this before also. i think i tried it once way back, but i just never well looked much more into it after that
hope you can figure something out with it. it would be a nice add to the collection

[DTEAM]

@ExarKunIv

Could it be useful to use this (for3ds - OpenGL?):

https://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/compile.html

https://discourse.glfw.org/t/glfw-and-mesa/176

[ExarKunIv]

@DTEAM it could, not sure if that would have a effect on anything else or how to have 3ds just it. thats a little above me

[DTEAM]

@ExarKunIv

I found this :

@ExarKunIv

Hi ExarKunlv, I'm chating with the guy from borked3ds. He seems to be interested to run 3DS on a Pi5. it will be appreciated to have people with computer science skills on that chat. I don't feel I'm the good guy to answer to all his questions. I can do some tests but i'm limited.

https://github.com/Borked3DS/Borked3DS/issues/330

[ExarKunIv]

@DTEAM yes come Monday I can give it a crack and see what I can help with

[DTEAM]

@ExarKunIv

We have a working 3DS emulator for Pi5!!!! (it works but it's in develloppement at an early stage)
https://github.com/Borked3DS/Borked3DS/issues/330

WIP Shellscript . You can't load a game direcly, you must go by the UI for now.

I updated MESA and Cmake to run it, see here (Post #4)

[ExarKunIv]

@DTEAM nice. amazing work on getting this to work.

we just need to have a script that will update mesa and cmake and we are all set. lol

[ecto]

@ExarKunIv Today I messed around with some ports, and like to share my findings:

• Perfect Dark: runs very well, but the install script needs a little more love: The checksum you need to calculate for the ROM file is a md5, not a sha1. Also, the rom file needs to be renamed. After some fiddling in the pd.ini (needs to be created first) the game plays very well. Thanks for that!

• rtcw: is as easy to compile as typing make. An aarch64 compatible binary is compiled and it runs very well.

• sstse: I can't get this one to run. It starts and I have a menu, but as soon as I start a new game it crashes to a black screen. Hmmm.

[ExarKunIv]

@ecto said in Suggestions for ports #4:

Also, the rom file needs to be renamed. After some fiddling in the pd.ini (needs to be created first)

guess mine is the right name since it worked just fine for me out of box. not sure about the ini since again it worked fine for me

The checksum you need to calculate for the ROM file is a md5, not a sha1.

i didnt work on that part, that was someone else. so i will have to revisit that

rtcw

i just updated the script yesterday to account for the issue of it not liking the file name

sstse

sounds like more a issue on the backend and something that would have to be looked at by the dev.
i have not gotten to that just yet. still working on the R's lol

Here is the link for Unreal Tournament :

https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTournamentPatches/releases/download/v469d/OldUnreal-UTPatch469d-Linux-x86.tar.bz2

[ExarKunIv]

@Nash what's this for

[Nash]

@ExarKunIv if I remember correctly, I replaced in the install script

local dl_url="${base_url}/releases/download/v${version}/${dl_file}"

by

local dl_url="https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTournamentPatches/releases/download/v469d/OldUnreal-UTPatch469d-Linux-x86.tar.bz2"

to avoid error 404

UT installed and run successfully on Pi4 and Pi5.

[ExarKunIv]

@Nash yes that will work if we want to just stick with one version.

But we are more looking for a way to have to future proof so I don't have to go in and edit the script when a new version gets pushed.

But thanks for finding a version that works. Might change it out for the time being since you tested it on a pi4 and pi5

EDIT
If you have a account you can also post this on my GitHub
