It installs libsdl2.0-0 which is needed by the N64 emulator.

Apparently, you can also get it by installing DrNokSnes.

Wow, this is running on software rendering? If so imagine how it would run with GPU acceleration!

PORTABLE VAPORIZERS

Is it so hard to implement GPU acc ?
Would be so great with acc :/

Alright... wow 5 pages of stuff in 6 hours..

Solved the issue as libsdl Try again (I really shouldn't type up from memory... should copy paste these things.) it should be libsdl-ttf2.0-0.

Also a fair few other things in the guide that are wrong. Fixing them up now. Wrote the thing up at 1.30 am can you blame me? For anyone having issues with config.. I'd suggest re-reading the second post as I used an incorrect path x.x

I'll try and answer some questions starting from the back:
Javispedro and cpusjaste are the only people I'm aware of that have gotten the source (older code however) to compile. Efforts made in an earlier thread by smokku got to the same place you are. Perhaps a post on the GP32 forum may present some.. they are fairly nice and Adventus seems to answer questions easily enough.

This was the real aim for this thread.. so I can only hope you have some success.

It has GPU acceleration... thats the only reason I desperately want this picked up. It isn't, however, anywhere near as optimized as it CAN be.

Thanks bud! Added to the first post. And hang on... Perfect Dark starts for you? I'd prefer a couple more functional videos first :P Eg. Lylat Wars and Banjo Kazooie. As I'd doubt Perfect dark would get over 1 fps.

Hmmm.. does anyone know is youtube code on this form?

Read my second post now. My old instructions were wrong.. but it should work now.

My second post was messed up... follow it again to replace the conf file... it will work perfectly then.

The PS3 controller doesn't work through the keys its mapped to. It works as buttons, like a regular gamepad. This means the 2 sticks work much better as they have sensitivity. I've disabled keymaps for my PS3 controller so they don't interfere.. but you shouldn't need to as the second conf file will only pick up button presses.

Appears to be all the un-answered ones. Just to clarify however, you NEED to navigate to where your rom files are for it to be able to pick them up. For example if they are in games folder:
cd home/user/MyDocs/games
mupen64plus mariokart.z64

To see what roms are in the directory you are in type 'ls' also if it is a long difficult name, type the first couple of letters then hit the onscreen Tab button.. it will autocomplete it.

Sorry about the duplicate thread, IzzehO. Just got a bit excited.

Here's the link for StarFox running full speed, full screen, and with sound:

And here's a new one of Goldeneye running full screen, but with sound disabled to help it run faster (my N900 is Overclocked to 950 Mhz):

EDIT: Here it is with sound. Turns out Goldeneye runs just as fast with sound enabled. This video also contains some game play footage:

any way this can be made into a .deb file instead of having to use lines of code and xterminal?

Afraid not killerjay. However, installation with xterm is not difficult to do. Dive in.. nows as good a time to learn as any.

Noticed you didn't bother to get in to gameplay. I don't blame you.. its even slower :P Try putting frameskip up to 5-6... game runs full speed.. but you don't see much. If you are after a FPS to trial: Duke Nukem 64 seems to work really well. Another fun game is Dual Heroes (my first 64 game) and it runs full speed.

is there any plans of making this into a .deb with a gui like psx4all and such? i just dont feel safe using the xterm..... or would using a .deb lower the quality of gameplay?

I think I already have libsdl installed how can I tell?

Just type this into a terminal (don't even need to be root):

dpkg -l | grep libsdl-ttf2
