[Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I spent this day compling Residual for N900. I wanted to see how would Grim Fandango run on my N900.

Here's a video and description:

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Do you have a video gameplay? Sounds great to play that on the N900.

What about "Brocken Sword"?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I know a number of people would be very excited to see that made into an installable package. In any case, i think this warrants its own thread.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

This is brilliant. I just discovered residual the other day and was thinking of doing this myself. How does it run?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

There's a debian folder in dists.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Hmm, isn't the beginning of the game shown on the video just a FMV? And the real 3D starts after that?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

No gameplay yet.

Yes. I didnt take the video from gameplay since it doesnt work (yet)

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

can't wait to see this project go live. playing grim fandango would be.. wait for it... awesome!

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Tried gameplaying by fixing that small SDL bug.

Manny moves but is very, very slow. Loads got very high while playing. If you want to try it yourself, comment out residue\backends\platform\sdl\sdl.cpp line 477 SDL_WM_SetIcon and compile it. HW rendering would really improve gameplay.

Someone really should make this a project. I think that using work from ScummVM maemo port would help a lot. I don't have expertise to do this any futher since I'm not a app developer.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Oh my :eek:

Grim is without a doubt my favourite game of all time..

This news is making my heart beat very fast indeed :)

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

when i launch it from terminal with "./residual", my 900 returns: "permission denied"...i tried with root or ssh root@localhost but nothing..

why?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

chmod 777 residual

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

thank you :)

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Isn't that doable with ScummVM rather than Residual?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Wow. I've never had the time to finish grim Fandango on the PC...Maybe i will finish it on the N900!

Now, could you think about making a package and placing it into extras-devel/testing? :D

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

broken sword is a scumm game and works with scummvm....

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

"Viva la Revolución!"
:)

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Gameplay video:

Its playable but needs some bindings (no esc button so no saving, inventory exit, bindings...) I think I can do something about it.

I'm working on that. Maybe it will appear there in next couple of days ;)

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Kinipyon: seriously, you're the best. I really wish you luck with this and can't wait to try it.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Same here. I've played this a lot back in the days. I like these kind of adventure style games. Keep us posted on the progress!

Can anyone at least also be so nice as to post a little bit of information on how to get this game to run for this who aren't all familiar with the xterminal?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

omg, actual gameplay...

I might finish this game again.. on my phone!

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Ah, the best adventure game of all time (of course, I'm excluding Monkey Island and similar classics)... Re-played it last year for the n-th time... Viva La Revolución!

I'm going on my long awaited vacation in couple of weeks, I'll gladly jump in to help with it :)

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

holy.... Grim Fandango is my top favorite game when companies still knew how to make adventure games and when people still understood what is good game rather than just keep shooting and kiling people.

Very sad there are not more good adventure games now

Very, very sorry about bad english.
Updates on this project will be posted there in future.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Have a look at Telltale Games, they make episode-based games, they made the new Sam&Max in 3D, and "Tales of Monkey Island" (same engine), which are both great in my opinion.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Still nobody who can give a brief explanation on how to get this installed and running?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

wow to play Grimfandango on my n900, that would be amazing

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

need port to OpenGL ES... This is complicated...

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I was playing Monkey Island on my old WM5 phone, just before I got my N900 and had to set it aside (Monkey Island). Now it would be great to resume playing it! :D

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

You can play Monkey Island franchise just fine on the N900 - ScummVM works pretty much ok.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I've been playing Monkey Island absoultely fine through ScummVM... who'd have thought a rubber chicken would come in so useful eh?!

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

any news?

Anyone? no .deb package?

good work though.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Residual site seemed to of had a update, wonder if this will help this long forgotten thread

gav

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Heres hoping!

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Bump for pure awesomeness that is grim fandango.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I uploaded residualvm version 0.2.0 (development snapshot) to extras-devel.
Keybindings added for maemo:
ctrl+shift+m access menu
ctrl+z Skips cutscenes

The game runs a bit slow on my n900, but I think is playable.

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

Still no OpenGLES? Want some help with it when I finish with Armagetron (I'm currently trying to port that one)? :P

edit: and are you now developing or maintaining it or just uploaded kinipyon's sources to repository?

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I'll see what I can do about OpenGLES, of course any help is welcome :). I downloaded the sources from residualvm site and ported to maemo (I discovered this thread later).

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

It works very well, at least in my N900, the only problem I noticed it´s that the bottom of the screen it´s missed so when you speak with someone cannot read the last option..

It should be upload to extras-devel, I´m sure more people are willing to try this version and replay, or play for first time, that great game which Grim Fandango is.

Thanks for this port!

Re: [Maemo 5] Residual (Grim Fandango engine) [WIP]
 

I've already uploaded residualvm to extras-devel, if you install that version, in fullscreen mode you can see the whole screen.
