My first impressions of the Pyra

[Silent-Hunter]

Has anyone tested PPSSPP yet in Pyra? It is in the repo but nobody commented on the forums about how well it runs.

It just gives a black screen. Wally has said he will fix it soon.

I wonder how good the Performance of the PSP Emulator might get, could be we get even 3D Games, GTA Vice City Storys on a Portable Console ? This will be cool and on cheap SD Cards, not on these over expensive PSVITA Memory Stick Pro Duo Successors..
And there is a cool Metal Slug Collection..

How would I even check that? X3

I don't need questions, I need results!

Count the frames for x seconds. Then devide the count by x.

I just wanted to tell you how much I really enjoy your posts. Deep insights, helpful feedback and cutting perspectives no one has ever considered or heard before.

Absolutely terrific content. We are all the better for it.

Great.

Now that you have shared with us your wisdom, what next? What do we do with all of this rich and valuable feedback of yours?

lol y so mad. I'm talking about a device not about your mother lol

Based on what you say, you have to share your "wisdom" every time you speak. Ok. So where's yours? BTW, you have just confirmed what I said: "Hey, if you don't like something don't say it. Only good things are welcome here".

Thank you.

I wonder : how many of you first few Pyra owners carry your Underpowered, Ugly, cheap made and too expensive Mini Computer in your Pocket of the Pants like I dit whit the Pandora and do whit the Pyra?

Edit: I forgot „many „

I'm going to carry it on my person, but probably not in my pants.

Homeoffice is where my Pyra is ^^
It’s quite practical although it’s needs the right work environment: whe are more leger dressed so, even Work Jeans whit big pockets aren’t an Issue..
The most of the time, I’m on the counter of our Store, and i don’t make that though Work so the Pandora and now the Pyra where quite save ..
let’s say I would make some other work , like on the construction side, maybe I wouldn’t carry the Pyra.. and there are also some other jobs whit Dresscode..
but as I’m free to decide my Clothes, I can pocket carry my Homeoffice..

Using the lanyard hole you can carry it around your neck. Maybe I'll do that, I can put it below my shirt and just pull it out when I need it.

 

[matzesu]

I carryd some of my MP3 Players this way, but they where a lot smaller and lighter than the Pyra..

Hi people! How about dreamcast emulator?

 

[matzesu]

Hi people! How about dreamcast emulator?

Not yet but I expect it some time in the next few months, whe have N64, DS and PlayStation allready, and the Pandora got allready Dreamcast, so it will work..
although the Emulators I showed maybe not run that good ^^

 

[EdenR]

Where i can download these emulators when Pyra will be mine? Thanks

There's a link in the Pyra section of these boards labeled Pyra Repository.

Tip of the day: Shovel Knight runs fullspeed via Box86 and gl4es on the Pyra. Plays perfectly fine too. There may be a little bit of vsync oddity here and there though (not that Pyra output is vsynced in the first place). I think using legacy vsync mode in the game's settings is a bit better, but I haven't played a lot after trying that to say for sure.
So no big surprise, huh. Here's the tip part: The game won't launch unless you specify LIBGL_NOES2COMPAT=1 (or LIBGL_FB=3, but that gets you 10 fps), meaning your command line should look a little bit like this

LIBGL_NOES2COMPAT=1 gl4es box86 ShovelKnight

For reference, I used the latest 32-bit Linux build from the Steam version of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove (it's DRM-free, I don't have Steam running on the Pyra).

I have a lot of faith regarding box86 and indie games in Pyra.

I wonder if we can hack the pyra and replace it with a capacitive screen from my not-used-any-more Galaxy Note 4.

I swear we had a discussion about such a possibility earlier on in this (or very similar) thread...?
