This is awesome. Thanks
In the old days, we just carried our Apple 2e's around with a generator, and called that portable. Joking... We couldn't afford the Apple 2e or the generator. I played this at school as a kid.

 

Mine is not working for some reason...
Instal the vpk... put the prince folder in ux0/data folder.... i get the loading phrase for a quick second than it disappears but the game does not load.

 

Can you list the content of your ux0:/data/prince in a pastebin link or whatever ?

Just to be sure there is nothing missing...

 

thanks usineur0 btw, how hard would it be to remap the jump button to O instead of up on the dpad? its a pain to play like this
EDIT: Never mind, got used to it. But it would be nice to create something like a button config.

 

I just release a new version: https://github.com/usineur/SDLPoP-Vita/releases/tag/vita-1.1

Main changes: loading time is deeply reduced and the game is displayed in real fullscreen now

Done.

 

It's a bug on my side. Latest commit fixes the problem.

 

well thats an interesting game

 

It is. But don't let you take off from the tight time limit (at least it's tight if you play it the first time).

There is one here: https://github.com/usineur/SDLPoP-Vita/releases
Direct link to vpk: https://github.com/usineur/SDLPoP-Vita/releases/download/vita-1.1/SDLPoP-Vita.vpk

 

Just passed the game on second attemp with first version. There a some very small timing glitches, espacially when fighting their guards (did pass PoP approx. 100 times within all these years). Unfortunately i can't enter any name in the lack of a keyboard. Softkey feature of the Vita would be nice.
However mate, let me tell you, your work is awesome... i allways loved this game and playing it on the vita now feels just incredible. Thank you very very much!

appendix... on the original PoP... if you have trap plates which would fall off... making them shake three times would cause them to fall. Didn't compile SDL PoP for linux anyway, so i can't tell if this issue is with your Vita Port or if it is SDL PoP related.

 

I will add this feature soon. In fact, the code is already written, but I need to refactor it.

Thank you. The main work is due to NavyD, he deserves all the credit for the engine.
I just made the Vita port and a little enhancement for the music support.

I don't know the original behaviour, but I'm pretty sure it comes from the SDLPoP engine. Take a look at the doc/Readme.txt file into the repository, maybe you could find informations about this.

The latest commit I just pushed on my github fixes that problem. Thank you to point me this problem, I didn't see it.

I will make a new release when the keyboard support will be definitively integrated.
