Just me?

No, it's not just you,it's a bit slow, especially if you are not on a Gigahertz model. It's running using DosBOX, and it's borderline playable.

Hi all,

@ptitSeb : slightly unrelated, but do you think Wasteland (Fallout's spiritual precursor from 1988) would run well on the Pandora ?

https://www.gog.com/game/wasteland_the_classic_original <-- not sure this version will run correctly with DosBOX though...

The original DOS one will probably run fine on DosBOX on the Pandora. But the GoG version I'm not sure. It seems it's not a DosBOX packaged version anymore.

@ptitSeb : according to GOG.com, inXile Entertainment (the team behind Wasteland 2) is responsible for the Windows / macOS / Linux port of Wasteland 1 available on their site. May I try to contact this team regarding a possible port of the Linux version to the Pandora ?

What would be even better is to have the GoG version having the ".sh" installer hosting x86, x86_64, armhf, aarch64 and pandora architecture, and the installer to automatically detect the correct architecture to install the correct binaries/libs (or build a PND with embedding the data for the Pandora). If the dependancies and system requirement are not too high crazy, that might be possible and not overly complicated. That would mean that all RasPI 2; 3 Odroids, Pyra, Pandora, and other various FruitPI support, that can expand somehow the userbase.

When i looked into the enhanced version of wasteland there was the source code for the modified dosbox.
But I think it forced a resolution higher than the pandora's so I just went with playing the original.
