Shattered Pixel Dungeon

[azure current]

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a traditional roguelike dungeon crawler that's simple to start but hard to master! Every game is a unique challenge, with five different heroes, randomized levels and enemies, and hundreds of items to collect and use.

I have tested on Rocknix and it works,also have to manually install the java runtime for now until it added to the repo again.

Controls are right stick mouse R2 left mouse button and L2 right Mouse button! I did not set that 🙂

Left stick to move

Currently using default control layout.

On smaller screens select your class type and then class icon with mouse and left mouse to start.

Menu options for scaling etc available once you complete the first task ie read the first book on first screen.

Other that I have played no further. So need assistance from people that now the game.

To help test on x86_64 please install RetroDECK https://retrodeck.net/

Then install PM for RetroDECK https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-GUI/releases/download/2024.04.12-1452/retrodeck.portmaster.zip by unzipping in ports folder

This is a very popular open source games and forms a big part of me sticking with the x86_64 process in an AARCH64 heavy project 🙂

@azure current i think we need a dedicated x64 testers group

i think out of the 40 testers or so 2-3 have a device

[fierce raven]

oeeeh, more roguelikes!

That's why

😄

Undo ping please

^^

[rose cape]

There is a port master for steam deck ?

[paper hinge]

Do we need one for mainline too?

[merry harbor]

Not since rocknix

almost all devices of prejelos are now on mainline

[azure current]

As part of RetroDECK yes.

[paper hinge]

All of them now with x55 i think 🙂

[merry harbor]

Exactly

[paper hinge]

Good point, enough testers for mainline

[azure current]

Just done. I hear you have the power to create new groups 🙂

[merry harbor]

done

I was not fancy with a new name

just <@&1229421030007771229>

unless you have a fantastic idea 😄

[azure current]

I like simple names. It suits me 🙂

Anyone who wants to join feel free to shout

[rose cape]

Must try getting that working again I tried last week and it would load anything just kept kicking me back to the menu

[azure current]

If you use a Linux Desktop also work on that too 🙂

[gaunt badger]

windows but im getting a new harddrive soon so might put it on that

[rose cape]

Yeah I know but wanted to set it up on steamdeck so can have my gaming handheld on one device lol

[azure current]

That's how I started. Hardly use windows now 🙂

[azure current]

My steamdeck hopefully arrives today 🙂

[rose cape]

Well if you get retrodeck running drop me a message as for some reason I loads finds the roms and and any I select drop me back to menu , bios are the same I always use on other devices and nothing lol

[merry harbor]

I also ahve a steamdeck

[rose cape]

You do ?

[merry harbor]

just in the drawer for the last 6 months or so

or year

😄

[azure current]

Will do. They also have a discord group https://discord.gg/YfVx6dcU

[rose cape]

Love me steam deck

[azure current]

I can get PM running without RD but for now and to keep things simple it is better to support just RD for key mappings etc. As RD also runs via Steam on Desktop for key/controller mappings etc

[rose cape]

Just installing retrodeck again see if I can get it working this time lol

[merry harbor]

It's just in pre-alpha 😄

[azure current]

Try not installing any bios files initially just roms.

Which devices are you wanting to emulate?

[rose cape]

Yeah that's what I'm going to do this time , my own fault I just dumped all the bios files over in one hit , I tried SNES N64 GC and megadrive last time

[azure current]

This cooker release should hopefully get released on flathub in the next few days

https://github.com/XargonWan/RetroDECK-cooker/

Try the cooker build

I have needed no bios files for thse systems 🙂

[rose cape]

Will check that out lol ironically it's just installing the flat pack one now lol

[merry harbor]

@azure current did you try this game on the other platforms by any chance?

We have OpenJDK runtime

could be tried with #1217905865135231036 curious if it would work

it will prboably work with rocknix

[azure current]

I will try with the java version.

I am bit lost with rocknix and my RGB30 🙂 I think mainline might work now?

Will try with Weston too.

[merry harbor]

yep

All rocknix are mainline

comepletly

[azure current]

Great will try it. I think my replacement RGB30 is a v2 but that is fixable like last Jelos release

[merry harbor]

Thing is we had java for over 2 years now

but it will always wanta display server

j2me retroarch core has its own backend so they used that in combination with java

but all other java can't work with kms

I did not play around with rocknix yet but things like that should work

and hopefully with #1217905865135231036 all other devices too

[azure current]

There is a java release file without the linux libs so it might work? Will try it. As it is very popular game.

I am more of boomer shooter 🙂

[azure current]

We may have a first java port to test on aarch64 (Rocknix) RGB30

Anyone want to help out with this as could also work via Weston libs and other devices(CFWs)

[azure current]

The x86_64 is using a compiled exe to run the game if java not on the machine

For now I am manually installing java on my rgb30 and running the game. It is possible to create a new exe for a platform as well.

https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeon/blob/master/docs/getting-started-desktop.md

[merry harbor]

Why not use the runtime? It's already in the repo

Just like Godot / mono & co

[merry harbor]

How did you do it in the end?

[azure current]

I didn't know there was one 🙂 Thanks that will be easier

[merry harbor]

#1229419900821569596 message

[azure current]

I can take little credit there was a jar file release

https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeon/releases/tag/v2.3.2

I then install java manually and just ran it! It even new about the controls itself just like on x86 with a controller plugged in

It's going to need a lot pf play testing as quite a big game with lots of options. It sort of fits on my RGB30 too 🙂

It has multi arch java files as part of the package

[merry harbor]

Feel free to post your wip for rgb30 then we'll figure it out 🙂

And how you started it 🙂

[azure current]

I think I might be able to make it a multi arch single port but will change to WIP either way if it needs a separate package. The java files in the x86 version also seem to work on aarch64. Just need to double check that

Also a 32 bit version 🙂

[azure current]

Can't see java in runtimes? https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-New/tree/main/runtimes

[merry harbor]

Uhoh

Was never used lol

https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-Runtime/releases

@marble cargo seems we forgot to add that one. Do we just copy it over to the new repo?

@azure current in the old runtimes repo

[azure current]

I will manually add it to my local PM for testing 🙂

[azure current]

It works with the java runtime 🙂 Will do a PR to add it back 🙂

The sh file needs simplifying some.

In theory we could also run the x86_64 from the runtime which will tidy things up a lot too 🙂

Will create a new zip now

[merry harbor]

❤️

[merry harbor]

You need to link or pin what needs testing

Users won't scroll through the thread finding the package to test ^^

Also wip is normally not tested with the whole Navigators group but single individuals

Since it's wip

[azure current]

We need the runtime too. I've deleted the ping post for now. I've also put a post in the dev section about the runtime

This is the zip that needs testing if java runtime installed

rg351v amberelec output

[merry harbor]

Yeah he didn't mention only mainline 🙂

[azure current]

Thanks for testing. It might work via the Weston libs. I will try that too

[azure current]

It does work with Weston gl4es script. Have you been testing that? As I can share the script if you want to try it.

[fierce raven]

don't know what we're expecting at this stage, but I had to do

elif [ -d "$HOME/retrodeck/roms/ports/PortMaster/" ]; then
  controlfolder="$HOME/retrodeck/roms/ports/PortMaster"

in the sh to have it set the control folder to where retrodeck/PortMaster lives on ChimeraOS on my Aya Neo Air, but after that it runs fine

Seems on par with the version from flathub (ChimeraOS has a webinterface that can install from a bunch of sources, including flathub)

[real hull]

@azure current is gone?

[merry harbor]

Looks like it

[sinful stag]

Dang shame, was hyped for a moment there

[fair pond]

I also messed with this game long ago (before the WestonPack) and then I learned about display manager 😄
@merry harbor Is it ok if I continue the port? it least we can release it only for rocknix

[merry harbor]

Sure

RG351P ROCKNIX
the game displays image and sound,
control does not work.
exit via select+start works.
the script could not detect controlfolder so I had to specify it manually "/storage/roms/ports/PortMaster"

USB mouse control works

[uneven grove]

shame it doesnt work on other distros, this one is quite a fun, and is especially nice on Ace as it works well with touch screen for inventory controls etc

also works nicely on 353VS / Rocknix

[merry harbor]

If it didn't detect the control folder your setup is broken

[real hull]

it seemed to find it in $XDG_DATA_HOME/PortMaster/ but it was empty there.

[merry harbor]

Old portmaster?

[real hull]

I used the latest release of rocknix , after installation I did an update in portmaster gui

[real hull]

Creating a configuration for gptokeyb solves the problem a bit in management.
But the game has built-in gamepad support which doesn't work.

[fair pond]

Do you have working controls in other games with native gamepad support? And this controlfolder detection is standard and the same as in other ports. Very likely your setup is broken

But that is cool it is possible to disable native, I will try to do it and use gptk, because the standard schema is poor (at least for me) I can't even move normally with my stick caps (the game doesn't always detect because of full range) and when you unbind gamepad mappings the game restores it to default

[sinful stag]

Powkiddy RGB10 Max 2 ROCKNIX
the game displays image and sound,
control does not work.
exit via select+start works

[sinful stag]

what is this controlfolder you're mentioning?

[fierce raven]

# Below we assign the source of the control folder (which is the PortMaster folder) based on the distro:
#!/bin/bash

XDG_DATA_HOME=${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}

if [ -d "/opt/system/Tools/PortMaster/" ]; then
  controlfolder="/opt/system/Tools/PortMaster"
elif [ -d "/opt/tools/PortMaster/" ]; then
  controlfolder="/opt/tools/PortMaster"
elif [ -d "$XDG_DATA_HOME/PortMaster/" ]; then
  controlfolder="$XDG_DATA_HOME/PortMaster"
else
  controlfolder="/roms/ports/PortMaster"
fi

basically, because we start the game via an SH, we detect where portmaster lives by checking if one of those directories exist, in order (first one wins)

This does mean if you have a directory that matches that doesn't have your portmaster install listed first, the rest of the script will break as $controlfolder won't be set correctly. for example in the next line already uses it:

source $controlfolder/control.txt # We source the control.txt file contents here
# The $ESUDO, $directory, $param_device and necessary sdl configuration controller configurations will be sourced from the control.txt file shown [here]

[sinful stag]

Ah dang. I'm not deep enough to understand this. I don't even know what SH is. I'll just wait till it's completed, thank you for the reply tho, I appreciate the effort.

[fair pond]

I think I will check what is wrong with .sh on that week
Just don't have a lot of time lately

[sinful stag]

It's aight man, take your time

[real hull]

If the game lags every 2-3 seconds, try adding launch arguments

java -jar $launch_file be replaced by ```java -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:G1NewSizePercent=20 -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=50 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=32M -jar "$launch_file"

[tall hedge]

Is this working on muos v11 portmaster or rather is it possible?
