Homebrew Official EasyRPG 3DS - RPG Maker 2000/2003 Player for 3DS

@Rinnegatamante: Thanks for the update; it fixed a lot of things for me on New3DS + 10.7.0. However, now I'm getting a black screen (after a few lines of debug text). This is using the debug game you provided:


Some log lines:
Debug: Sound initialized successfully!
Warning: BGM playback is unavailable with DSP
Debug: Initializing sound cache (Dim: 5242880 bytes)

...then both screens go black. Left on for 5+ minutes, nothing happens.

When you extract Yume NIkki on a European PC you get Mojibake but it will still work.

You can workaround this by adding

[EasyRPG]
Encoding=1252

to the RPG_RT.ini. If this doesn't work try "932"

When i extract it, on my PC i get random wrong characters cause i probably don't have the right encoding, don't know if it's what you were referrring to:
ƒ}ƒCƒVƒXƒeƒ€a.xyz this is an example of filename

I think svchax is reliable with cia build

Linux Loader running on N3DS packed as CIA + using svchax/memchunkhax2.1 on 10.6 emuNAND
http://gbatemp.net/threads/linux-lo...svchax-memchunkhax2-1-on-10-6-emunand.418205/

svchax is pratically useless on a CIA build since you can give whatever serviceaccess you need by just editing the workaround.

If you are trying from PC did you install it from an exe?

I'm trying it on 3DS.

I've tried a bit dsp audio service on my O3DS and it worked fine for me. Are you sure you're using the last commit on my repository?

Yepp just copy-paste that garbage filenames ("Mojibake") on the 3DS and set the encoding manually in the ini, should work...

Here is a script to change the random characters to Japanese. Somefiles might need you to convert with IE manually(copy the name to a text file, open it with IE and change encode to Japenese)

The permanent solution forever is to change the region& language to Japan.

Even the translated (Englsih) version of Yume NIkki uses these Mojibake filenames btw.
The reason is that the official engine (RPG_RT) is not unicode aware. So when you give the files japanese names they can't be opened anymore

(EasyRPG doesn't care of course)

 

[Rinnegatamante]

@sorlok_reaves i found what causes the problem, if you open easyrpg player first time, then return HBL and then try to re-open it, that black screens get triggered. I'll investigate where could be the problem causing it

Tried with both encoding you suggesyed but they've not fixxed the problem.

Well，I can run yumenikiki,all that I have done is to extract the lzh on a windows PC with Japanese non-Unicode charaters supported,
copy the patch file and rpgmaker 2003 RTP to the same folder， and move the full folder to my MicroSD card.

Yeah, communication error.
I meant that this works with the English translation of the game, not with the japanese original.

I wanted to give a try to framerate but it seems pretty enjoyable from your screenshots.

Acturally it's not as high as the screenshots shows, when I press home to snap the screen,
the number went high, it works like at 45FPS on new 3DS

I have added BGM supports even on dsp :: DSP wrapper so now libsvchax is unneeded and you'll have full audio support with any setup.
Since dsp:: DSP BGM musics support is experimental, i need reports about this so here you are a new test build.
This new build has also experimental support for OGG musics (but it is probably broken) and an improved sounds decoder for WAV files (it should load wav sounds faster).

Oh, since i need dsp:: DSP reports, this build has been compiled with FORCE_DSP flag so csnd:SND check is skipped at all.

I'd like to see if someone wants to take some video footages to see general speed of the interpreter and what it supports or not.

New build runs fine on both n3ds and o3ds regardless of which firmware I load on both sysnand and emunand. YN loads consistently in 5m43s, and plays most sounds fine (you can see in the video a few BGM are in unsupported formats). Let me know if you'd like any additional footage or a different game tested.

Here's the video

 

[sorlok_reaves]

Runs great, thanks so much! Fixes my problem from before, too:


Sometimes the audio gets really loud on Sounds (not Music), but not in this video. I'll try to make a simple test case.

HOLY SHIT WE CAN PROBABLY PLAY THIS! Super Mario RPG: The Seven Sages

This is legit one of the best RPG maker 2003 games that I ever played!

 

[Merrx]

I'm using a N3DSXL with updated sysnand, so I had to reinstall a backup of my emunand 9.2 for testing.
english rtp at /data/rtp/2000 is recognised.

emuNAND 9.2, easyrpg-player from post #90
So I get to select a game in the HB menu (Mario Kart 7) and the test rpg starts fine to the menu.
There it says, unsupported music format (./Music/Opening2.mid), so no bgm is played.
Menu sounds are good (44100 sampling rate).
BGM ingame also failed, same warning.
Ingame events are fine. 60FPS

emuNAND 9.2, easyrpg-player from post #132
same as above

updated sysnand 10.7, easyrpg-player from post #90
Freeze at "Debug console started"

updated sysnand 10.7, easyrpg-player from post #132
no selection of game title in HB menu
else is the same as emu 9.2, post #90

In latest testbuild :
- Cutscenes seems to be fixed in legend of zelda links awakening.
- Framerate however didn't change and musics are considered invalid format.

I'm going to leave this forum until a solution will be taken for the current situation about spam and shitthreads (so cause staffs never cared about, i'm probably going to leave this community forever).

Thanks for your reports, if you want to continue to help me with tests just register on EasyRPG forum and report all your tests, issues and so on in the 3DS port development topic here so that i can work on them: https://easy-rpg.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=625&p=1568#p1568

I'll also start using only EasyRPG forum for test builds releases.

 

[UltiNaruto]

I'll make sure to be there then.

EDIT : Almost registered. Damn anti spam measure is complex xD.
EDIT 2 : Finally registered!

That's fine, but you shouldn't expect less in April Fools day That's why devs/people usually disconnect until the next day
