Find here a port of Out of this Word, the fabulous game from Eric Chahi.

preview1.png


This port used the "Fabother World" engine, itself based on RAW 0.1.1

It currently support only Out of this World data files, the Another World data files will not work.

The key mapping is:

DPad to move
B/X is action key

Y is UP (but you can use DPad's UP too)

C to enter a code
P to pause
Alt X / ESC : to quit
Alt . : next scaler
Alt , : previous scaler
Ctrl . : next save slot 
Ctrl , : previous save slot
Ctrl S : save game state 
Ctrl L : load game state
Ctrl F : toggle fast mode

Out of this World isn't supposed to be a renaming of Another World ? Or maybe on a different support ?
 
Ok, so it's likely to be a translation or fixed bugs differences.
 
Out of this World and Another World are the same game, different names for different markets, but the datafiles are slightly different, and only Out of the World load for now. So you have to use US version for now.
 
Ah, shucks. The GOG version is "Another World", so I will be unable to test for the time being.
 
I used the "out of this world" version and place Bank files and memlist.bin files in the data folder but it still gives me an error when it launches... anything I may be doing wrong?
 
Normaly, just putting BANK0 to BANKE and MEMLIST.BIN is enough. There should be named in all capital letter.

Maybe there is some interesting output in the PND_Out.

When Datafiles are not the supported ones, you have some error message about an Assertion not verified in Bank1 most of the time (if i remember correctly).

I have the same problem as ekianjo

I tried two different versions of Out of this World. I have noticed that both have files BANK0 to BANKD (not BANKE). Are you sure the BANK files rank from 0 to E?

Yes, sorry, it BANK0 to BANKD + MEMLIST.BIN

Here is snapshot of my data folder...Sans titre.png

So, once again, I added a missing libs in the PND.

It should start now !

Also added "Y" button as "up" (the "UP" in the DPAd is still UP, don't worry), so now you can jump with a button.

Build 02

----------

  • Added a missing lib, so the PND start.
  • Added "Y" button as UP.
