Holy smokes! BeWorld has ported Space Cadet to MorphOS! Just found out when visiting MorphOS Storage a few minutes ago. I love pinball games and this one is a nice classic for sure. Keep up the great work! Donation has been sent.

Anyone else tried Space Cadet on MorphOS yet?

Unfortunately I do not get it rnning here on my X5000...only a black screen.
And yes, I have installed the latest 'SDL_2.0.16_Libraries.lha'.

@BeWorld

Does the game require a special gfx card...?

Thanks!

To be sur, i test SpaceCadet with QEmu (no GFX Card) with SDL 2.0.16 and SDL 2.0.14...
All seem working here... so i dont have any idea why black screen.

Are you test others games ?

Hi Primax,

Does the same happen (black screen) with both versions (software and hardware renderer)? Do you get a window or does it go full screen? Hope you'll get it working.

Sorry, it is a white, not a black screen...;)

But nothing happens. Except: After a few seconds the window gets the name:
*** Application is meditating ***

I also checked my libraries because first I thought I had downloaded the latest sdl2-archive but have not installed it. But it seems I did: sdl2.library v53.4, sdl2_mixer.library v53.5.

Do I need anything else? Any library?

Thanks!

I have the same problem on my sam460ex.
Makes me wonder if the game uses altivec.

I'm using a Radeon x1550 on my sam460ex. It has full 2D/3D support.
And I'm having the exact same problems.

edit: I've tried the following games:
OpenTyrian: works
Cannonball:works
Super Methane Brothers:works
OpenTTD: doesn't work , same problem as pinball space cadet.

@mozzerfan
Altivec... look at any SDL2 window in the menu : Misc / system info
But i dont think Altivec is the cause, because some games working and other not...

Have you try with SDL 2.0.14 ?

Possible to have a screenshot of GraphicsBoards utility ? (to check Pixels formats...)

pity that I do not have a sam or X5000 to test and check where is the problem.... :(

The X5000 and the sam460ex have no altivec, so that would explain it.

edit: will post screenshot later.

It is most likely related to the unavailable AltiVec engine:

You can try yourself by adding NOALTIVEC to the boot arguments if you develop/try on a AltiVec-capable machine in order to test with disabled AltiVec engine.

i found a bug

@primax mozzerfan

You can find SDL 2.0.16 with fix here : https://www.morphos-storage.net/upload/test/SDL_2.0.16_Libraries.lha

Can you test before i put it in real morphos storage ? thanks

@cyfm

Detection Altivec seem good but for some reason, SDL2 crash.

HasAltiVec return 0 in all SDL2, so it's good. (i test with NOALTIVEC in boot)

the crash is here :
https://github.com/BeWorld2018/SDL/blob/MorphOS/src/core/morphos/SDL_cpu.c#L148

but when HasAltiVec=0, this code isnt execute (normal) but CRASH...
if i comment this code into condition then WORKING....
I dont understand why....

To fix the bug, i only delete all call of SDL_CopyAndSwap16/32 in SDL2/SDL2_Mixer/SDL_Image
I think it's not necessary to have that, in original version of SDL2 is not present, i add that why time to optimize... but it may not be a good idea to do this.

I can confirm it! Both games start and work.
Only issue I have for both: I cannot correctly quit them. If I 'exit' via the menu, then they freeze...

You basically can not call functions with code containing AltiVec instructions on a non-AltiVec CPU, even if you have some HasAltiVec check in there at the very top.
Typically, it will already execute some AltiVec specific code in the prolog.
