I am not able to work on this because of an unannounced trip. I will be back in a few days to post it. I apologise for not delivering. I felt so bad that i went online here to post this.

 

[ZoxFox]

awesome news that this great flagship project is kept on tweaking.

 

[skeezix]

Okay thanks for the update my friend

Wow! I'm excited to see this running.

I have never finished BG1, so this is a perfect reason to play it through once I get my Pandora.

Thank you for porting this!

The start position for BGT should work fine for GemRB 0.6.1. The other issue with bgt is the starting experience, which can be fixed by editing clskills.2da in the gemrb override.

We are definitely interested in getting GemRB working on as many devices as possible, and are ususally fairly quick at fixing things as they come up. Come visit us at #gemrb on freenode.

WOW! This surpasses my wildest dreams for the Pandora! BG1,2 and IWD1 are some of my all-time favorite computer experiences! THANK YOU! I can't wait for the pnd!

Will this also play planescape torment?

if so then

 

[Maltanar]

*worship worship*

Now I can be back to my TeamBG days (rings a bell, anyone? ) any time, any place once I get my hands on my Pandora.

Much, much appreciated!

Maybe someday. Do your cheerleading at the GemRB forum instead.

GemRB supports Planescape Torment, since it originally used the infinity engine.

Just adding my compliments on you people working on this. Keep up the good work.

So I created an alpha stage PND file for BG1 on GemRB 0.6.1

You can download it here:

http://drop.io/epqnufo

It requires your bg1 data files to be extracted to /media/mmcblk1p1/bg1.
The guide to extract the data can be found on: http://gemrb.sourceforge.net/wiki/doku.php?id=getting_started

I used the unshield method to extract mine.

Remember, there is still a lot to be done for this pnd (not even the icon of the pnd works yet ), but it should give you an impression of what bg1 on pandora could be like.
And if someone feels like working on this pnd, please do so because I have next to no time (i'm typing this with one hand and a sleeping baby in my other)

Good luck and let us know how it works out.

EDIT: haha, yes there is still a lot wrong... I can't seem to kill the dude in the top house in candekeep, I can only knock him unconcious but he gets right up.

You need a weapon to kill him, bare hands only knocks people down

If only I had my Pandora yet, I would make a pnd for this, BG2 and PS:T. I'll do it if it hasn't been done when I get it

Aah, I completely forgot about that. I feel a little bit of shame.

It requires your bg1 data files to be extracted to /media/mmcblk1p1/bg1.

You might want to change that to a relevant appdata ASAP. Otherwise this PND will be broke with the next hotfix.

I tried copying an existing windows bg1 install to my sd but when i run the pnd nothing happens

Can you check if your file/directory layout is like this?

The location of the files is very important. I had to move dialog.tlk to the root. It could be that you have to copy some files from you cd.
The thing is I used unshield within linux so i have no idea what a clean windows install looks like.

Maybe you can post your directory structure within bg1?
