Infos

Tyrian clone derived from original sources and enhanced (SDL support, bugs correction...). It is working quite well on 8bpp framebuffers; for 16bpp one, a bug has to be corrected in i.MX framebuffer (ongoing). OpenTyrain is integrated in Armadeus Buildroot. It needs SDL & SDL_net. Video was taken on the 7" LCD. Runs at full speed in 640x480 in 8bpp mode (APF27 and APF51).

Install

• Launch Buildroot configuration:

 $ make menuconfig

Package Selection for the target  --->
    Games  --->
        [*] OpenTyrian

Activate OpenTyrian package (it will autoselect SDL and SDL_net). Then, exit and save your config. Re-Build your rootfs:

$ make

and reflash it

Launching

• If you have a Chimei display (800x480):

 # /usr/games/opentyrian

• If you want some sound be sure that ALSA is running, with OSS emulation loaded.

Troubleshots

• If SDL is complaining because it can't find any mouse (Unable to init SDL: Unable to open mouse) then, before launching the game, do:

 # export SDL_NOMOUSE=1
