[StreaK]

From StreaK's last year's port-chest


D2X - A Descent 2 Engine. And no.. its not the same as Pickle's port of D2X ReBirth

- D2X is configured with 2 profiles:


+ Mouse/Nub profile


+ Touchscreen profile [plays awesome ]

So his doesn't support gles rendering, like pickles?

 

[StreaK]

Nope. Pure Vanilla DOS Descent 2 feel


BTW. mcobit, chk yr PM box

 

[mcobit]

Already answered your pm

 

[StreaK]

thx.


+Added a YT video with D2X to 1st post

 

[mcobit]

Does this have joysticksupport for the nubs?

 

[StreaK]

You mean set external Joystick/Joypad to play D2X?

 

[mcobit]

No, just use the dual nubs as joysticks for x/y and throttle.


Maybe something like:


Left nub: forward, back, up down


Right nub: turn like with the mouse/touchscreen


Left shoulder: hold to strafe


Right shoulder: fire


Edit even better:


D-pad: strafe


Left shoulder: change weapons / missiles


Edit2: I think you have to set the nubs into joystickmode in the startupscript. As an example, see mupen64 or rrootage pnd.


Also you will have to set the first joystick to js1 instead of js0 in the source, if not more than one joystick is supported by the game.

Wow, since nobody else seems to be saying it: Thanks! I'll hopefully try this out tonight.

 

[mcobit]

Yeah, thanks!

I downloaded this and got a dos like command menu after pressing ctrl and esc as instructed.


I was a bit confused.


the pnd was placed in Pandora>menu>games where my other working ones are and a i also noticed the empty folder in appdata.

 

[StreaK]

are you talking about CLI_Love Package?

 

[Phelsumania]

Amazing thanks for the upload, this ones kinda caught us off guard. You posted on the 4th floor page that you were taking a break from porting to the Pandora?


Love your still hard at it you've realeased so many pnds over the last month, seems like a pnd every other day do you ever sleep?

 

[birdswithskirts]

are you talking about CLI_Love Package?

Is there any benefit of using this over D2X ReBirth? Just curious I'd try it myself, but my Pandora is still in the Land of the Evil Dragons.

D2X is for You, only if you're a fan of vanilla editions [for example: if you like cocholate doom more than doom legacy]

Fair enough, I do sometimes like going back to the original look of Doom.. so cheers for this addition.
