Homebrew [Release] DevilutionX for 3DS

[MyJoyConRunsHot]

Contrary to popular belief, new 3DS does have an overall stronger CPU than vita, as comparable emulators have shown time and again.

Ot, but where do these two sit on the home console spectrum in terms of CPU power. More or less powerful than the Broadway in the Wii?

Turns out the full game is running fine as-well.
To use it, compile source, and copy over DIABDAT.MPQ.

After character creation it will give an 'out of memory' error.
Reboot, load existing character and the game starts without error.

Edit: Fixed small oversight, should not encounter error at all now.

I love this game. I own the GOG copy on PC and have the new 3DS with custom firmware and FBI. I have been trying to learn how to compile but it is beyond my smarts! I do not understand how to compile. Can it be compiled and shared? Can you help me get the full version onto my 3DS?

No it can not be compiled and shared, that would be illegal and against the forum rules I bet someone could help you how to compile it though.

Cool port! Any chance we could get 800px mode support? I'll be waiting for a 3dsx build though. I tend not to use CIA format homebrew.

 

[Wizerd]

hmmm

 

[Wizerd]

Man, I don't know how to compile this stuff. Can someone do it for me?

The latest commit's go largely untested, but if you do want to build and try it, here how:

Assuming you have devkitARM setup with the 3ds libraries. (libctru 2.0, sdl-3ds 2.0.12 with all it's dependencies)

- Install 'devkitpro-pkgbuild-helpers' using dkp-pacman.
- From the devilutionX-3ds source folder run:

cd build && cmake .. -DBINARY_RELEASE=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/devkitpro/3ds.cmake && make

- Built binaries are located inside the 'build' folder.


I'm not really sure why i'm not allowed to share compiled binaries, as you still have to provide your own game assets.
My apologies if i broke any rules, since the links to github also provide older compiled binaries.

If anyone needs any help compiling, let me know.

i very much need help compiling this, i got cmake and everything but i dont know where in the cmake build window to put the: DNIGHTLY_BUILD=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../CMake/ctr/devkitarm-libctru.cmake && make

ive never done anything like this before, so any help would be appretiated.

 

[Wizerd]

I really want this on my 3ds

 

[sharrenskunk]

it keeps saying it cant find the diabdat.mpq and it should be in lowercase but the file is a .MPQ

 

[Zense]

it keeps saying it cant find the diabdat.mpq and it should be in lowercase but the file is a .MPQ

And you have tried renaming it to lowercase .mpq?

 

[sharrenskunk]

And you have tried renaming it to lowercase .mpq?

i have but it wont stay lower case >.<

 

[Zense]

i have but it wont stay lower case >.<

Are you trying to rename it on your SD card? Try renaming it before transfering to the sd card.

 

[lone_wolf323]

i have but it wont stay lower case >.<

You would likely need to add another letter, say yes to the extension change, and then re rename it back to the lower case extension again.

 

[sharrenskunk]

yeah i had to add a 1 before because windows has recognition issues, thanks for the help

Hi does the hellfire needs the `hellfire.mpq` file??

 

[havocdrake]

Yes, its required.

I've added it to the list. Thanks.

Would it be theoretically possible to do this type of thing for any pc game of that era such as hearts of iron?

This port comes as a result of a tremendous amount of work done by coders to effectively reconstruct the source code used by Diablo. I think it came about as a result of some debugging tools left in certain commercial releases of Diablo in the 90s and a massive amount of work by a few coders. Basically a lot of work and some good luck.
