Nevermind me, dumped the dsp again and it worked out just fine. Sorry for the double post!

OH MAH GOSH IT'S A DREAM COME TRUEEEE!!!! THAANK YOU!

Fixed the 3dsx version adding an xml file for target title selection (like retroarch and ScummVM do).

You need the youtube app (or one of the other comon target title supported by retroarch) tu run the 3dsx.

Noe I'm going to update the packages of Meritous and Xrick too.

I can't progress past the high scores screen when it appears. Using version 1.0 CIA build

I'll try to remove the highscore screen Without the keyboard it's not possible to in put a high score name.

 

[nop90]

@Kubba : removed the screen for inserting the name of the highscore, now I'm using a const string.

Please try a new highscore and let me know if it's ok, I can't test it.

Hey, I like this. I already played it as a homebrew for the DS
I hope, porting Kobo Deluxe could be an interesting project for you. It was one of my favourites on the Wii.

Kobo Deluxe also needs SDL 1.2. Thank you!

I installed the latest 1.1 version .CIA with the high score fix but when I exit to the home menu it still reboots the system. I have an o3DS with AL9h+Luma 11.3. The bottom screen says warning can't find opentyrian.config or something along those lines in game. Would that have something to do with it?

 

[nop90]

No ir's unrelared and I'm aware of the problem.

Yoir conf file is misssing because you never changed soneting in the config menu screen.

OpenTyrian is a port of the DOS shoot-em-up Tyrian. Jason Emery generously gave the OpenTyrian developers a copy of the Tyrian 2.1 source code, which has since been ported from Turbo Pascal to C. The port uses SDL, making it easily cross-platform.

Original game was developed by World Tree Games Productions and published in 1995 by Epic MegaGames.

Tyrian is an arcade-style vertical scrolling shooter. The story is set in 20,031 where you play as Trent Hawkins, a skilled fighter-pilot employed to fight Microsol and save the galaxy.

--------​

3DSX Users: Currently, the 3DSX build needs to utilize a large app installed on your 3ds. If you have used any of the similarly large RetroArch emulators or ScummVM 3ds, you have nothing to worry about. The easiest target to use is the Youtube app, so if you have that installed, you're ready to go.

CIA Users: You will first need a DSP dump on your SD card.
This is a one-time process and is needed for all homebrew CIAs that use DSP audio.

The source code of my port is on my github (https://github.com/nop90/Opentyrian-3ds).
The compiled game (3dsx and CIA format) is released on github (https://github.com/nop90/Opentyrian-3ds/releases).

The original source is here: https://bitbucket.org/opentyrian/opentyrian/wiki/Home

OH SHIT, didn't expect you to actually take my suggestion! Thank you, I'm seeing this late, but I appreciate you following through, can't wait to play this.

random crash under Luma3DS 8.1 / B9S 1.2 (v1.1 cia-version)

 

[Deepdivered]

The xml file is missing from the 1.1 zip. I got it from the 1.0 when I tired to exit though it did not go back to homebrew. Loving your stuff!

 

[Kubba]

Heya.

I'm not sure if anyone has done this yet, or if there was already a way to access the alternate game modes on the 3DS version, but here's a handy save file that includes the following:

Story Mode: Lord of Game
Story Mode: Impossible
Engage

(all of these have normal difficulty)
Uship
Stormwind
Techno
Weird
Stealth
NortshipZ
Unknown

Just drop this file in your Opentyrian directory.


On a separate note, I've been experiencing random crashes in OpenTyrian here recently. Anyone else getting them after an update or something?

 

[pintcat]

Hey everyone,

tried this for the first time and so far it runs and looks magnificent except the exit to the home menu. Any progress on that issue?

 

[flaccidbagel]

Firstly wanted to drop by and say thanks for the work on this. Its great being able to play Tyrian on the go. I did want to ask if anyone happened to have the save file that was referenced earlier. I think it'd be great to be able to play the extra modes as well. If not, no big deal.
