Dingoo A320 forum

Hey guys,

just managed to get hexen running thanks to fanoush who pointed out that sdl can convert 8 bit pixel data to 16 bit pixel automaticly.

i basicly chaged only this :

8 bit to 16 bit conversion (thanks to fanoush for pointing out that sdl can do this by itself)
added the putenv("SDL_NOMOUSE=1")
centered the game screen on the dingoo screen since the game normally runs in 320x200 mode.


You will need the hexen.wad file (the 1.1 version of the wad) and have to put it in the same directory as you put the binary. The hexen.wad file is not included !!!

the first time you run the game do not forget to setup the keybindings. strafing using L/R does not work though since i wasn't in the mood to change the keybindings since it basicly works out of the box and one can use a button (like Y + dpad which i use to get strafing).

it also needs a writeable filesystem if you don't want to change the keybindings everytime you run the game. (it will write a configuration file at exit). the sources are included so feel free to change anything you'd like

As usual since it's staticly compiled it should run on any root file system.

Awesome news! Hexen is probably my favorite "old skool" FPS after Doom. Great job, joyrider!

Thank's

NICE ONE!

i played hexen a ton back on my ps1. i remember when it first came out, and needed an entire memory card just for one save game, but it was worth it. probably the best 2d FPS ever.

Great! I love this game. Is it for linux or can I just put it on my dingoo (with the .wad)?

it's for dingoo linux yes, forgot to mention that sorry (thought it was obvious)

also staticly compiled hheretic. Which i believe is the sequel to hexen. It's needs the heretic.wad file which is not included/

sources + static compiled binary availible here :

i'll make a video of both of them running so you guys have an idea

update:
here it is, the static is again from my microphone on my webcam that i can't lower it's sound volume off, so it can't handle loud sounds, sorry about that

Nice game! I used to play this game a lot, haven't seen it in a while. Good job!
