Medal of Honor: Allied Assault War Chest on Pyra/OpenPandora?

[gbudny]

Hi

I want to inform you that Smallmodel keeps working on this project.

The most noticeable change is that you now see images before you load levels from the Load/Save section of the main menu. It works with quick saves (F5) and saves games created from the main menu.

@ptitSeb

Did you encounter any other issues that could prevent you from releasing OpenMoHAA for OpenPandora?

I think about bugs reported earlier by OpenMoHAA users, or maybe you noticed issues no one reported.

Please share your opinion about it.

I'm in holyday for now, I'll have a look at that next week. I did updated the source code 2 weeks ago and it build without issue. I'll update and start debugging next week.

Hi

I know that Clang Is available for Pyra.

Can you tell me if Clang is actively maintained for OpenPandora?

I hope this decision doesn't make it more tricky to port OpenMoHAA to OpenPandora.

Clang (an old version) can be available on the OpenPandora, but I don't really maintain it anymore... Why would Clang be needed?

Thank you for the answer.

I encountered the issue with GCC, which existed only in a release mode, which was weird.

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

Interestingly, I didn't have this problem in debug mode:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DDEBUG_DROP_ASSERT=1 -DDEBUG_MEMORY=1

This is the answer from Smallmodel, but later, he fixed this bug:

Anyone can use whatever compiler they want, but must be aware of stability issues when enabling optimizations with GCC

I suspected that OpenPandora is one of the platforms where GCC is more common than Clang. In this case, I had to ask you about Clang on OpenPandora.

Hi

I want to inform you that OpenMoHAA 0.70.0-alpha is available for Linux, and the list of changes is below:

Release v0.70.0-alpha · openmoh/openmohaa

What's changed This version introduces a lot of bugfixes and stability fixes compared to the v0.61 release. Overall, the project has become more stable, with the engine almost fully implemented, ma...

The most important change is the new sound system that uses OpenAL instead of SDL. I hope this game part will work on OpenPandora and not cause any issues after compiling it.

Hi

I want to inform you the new OpenMoHAA version has new debug options that were useful to sort out some issues on MorphOS with displaying static models:

Big Endian PPC 32 bit ( client side - MORPHOS platform ) · Issue #332 · openmoh/openmohaa

So far I managed to make the client side work for ppc 32 and that could help other ports. Still some issues. First of all R_LoadLump (tr_bsp.c) crashes when called. My "fix" is right at the beginni...

I know there were some problems with Pyra. Maybe this additional information is displayed on Pyra/OpenPandora and can help you sort out some of these issues.

In the unstable version 0.7.1 movies work in Spearhead/Breakthrough and the intro is displayed, but only in MoHAA at the moment.

Hi

It's a tidbit, but the most recent version of OpenMoHAA can be played on Macs with the M (and Intel) processors. This project already supports ARM processors, and it's one of them.
I don't know if it would be helpful for you to port OpenMoHAA to Pyra/Pandora.

Cowcat released OpenMoHAA for MorphOS, which is cool because this project has started to support more systems. Smallmodel helped him to fix a few bugs in the PowerPC version.

In this case, more users can play Medal Of Honor Allied Assault War Chest on their favorite platforms.

Unrelated, but Microsoft published an ISO for their Win11 ARM release. So you can now try to install this OS on your ARM platform. Which might help to play some games also.
