Hi all

@sebt3 : I'm sorry to report this DBP doesn't work on my brand new Pyra, and leaves no logs in /tmp/dbpout.

What am I doing wrong ?

Cheers, Magic Sam

Some of the older Games on the DBP Repo might got ported to a different Pyra Kernel Version, so they don’t work..
same as Stella,
I can report that at least the Emulator and Games after the first Pyra Release for the Normal customers work, so everything from January 2021 on should work...

as matzesu said, this is kind of unsurprising. this dbp is about 4 years old.
I plan on having a modern (this one is very old) version up and running once my proto is back home

Having the old dbp as an other name still somewhere ?
What does say :

dbp-run supertux_sebt3 supertux.sh

 

[matzesu]

I tried the new supertux 2 dbp you uploaded today,

Edit after I typed it in this happens

It runs, but only over the terminal, which is strange, but lucky the terminal can remember the commands so I just have to scroll to it

Indeed I have the same issue. It's a packaging one. No clue how to fix this... yet...

 

[matzesu]

But it’s runs quite good, there is always room for improvement but I’m happy to have one more game ^^

It was always available

sudo apt install supertux
gl4es supertux

This dbp is only if you dont want to clog your system with over 200M of stuff
Most debian games I tried this way works. There's already plenty games available

 

[matzesu]

Yeah, but this would waste my internal 32 gb storage over time, so I prefer the DBP , ^^
I mean there are allready software on the internal but games shall be on sd cards ..

issue fixed...
"Package Entry" have to go after "Desktop Entry"... geez...
I have updated my "a journey" thread. And some doc on the wiki.

Hi all

Thanks @sebt3 for updating your package, really appreciated !

What's the performance like on your end ? I edited the config file to display the FPS counter in-game, and it varies from ~10 to 15...

Are you on the latest OS? I've not tried it yet, but from what I could follow on Discord, this one should use GLES... so I'd expect it to run fullspeed.

 

[ptitSeb]

I wouldn't be so sure. Last time I checked (ok, that was on the Pandora), the game was not "Mobile GPU" friendly at all! (with gazillon of non-batched draw call, many state switched, and alpha test on sprite IIRC). So fullspeed, maybe not (even if it's "simple" 2D game). But 10fps is still a bit slow.

 

[matzesu]

I ditnt had the time yesterday evening to test the new version which runs from DBP direktly, but i will try this out maybe this evening

Hi

Yes I'm running the latest version of the OS, just ran "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" before installing the DBP.

Oh, I thought it was running decent on the Pandora... but could be my memory is hazed

 

[matzesu]

Maybe it ditnt run good on the Pandora, but whe had ignore this because whe had in mind its had only 700 mhz, so everything that run was fine ^^
