[GAMES] Doom 3 BFG bad ass game XD

<< < (3/4) > >>

MPC7500:
On Alpine Linux it's available on ppc64le. On ArchPOWER it's even available on ppc/ppc64.

When I have time, I'll try it on Chimera Linux.

yes this was my experience, I was able to load random maps and some i could play through them fully, try something like map game/mars_city2 for example. Another thing I had messed with was image_cachemegs as that sometimes would prevent crashes when set to a few GB or something. I posted my initial crash reports here https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/508
When I have a PPC machine again I'm going to explore getting Half Life 2 to compile

I did not run into such issue,

```

# build dxc
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler.git
cd DirectXShaderCompiler
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -C ../cmake/caches/PredefinedParams.cmake
make dxc -j
sudo make install-dxc
# build the shared library
make dxcompiler -j32
# install it
sudo make install-dxcompiler
# then update the library cache:
sudo ldconfig


# build game
git clone https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG.git
cd ./RBDOOM-3-BFG/
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build && cd build
export DXC_CUSTOM_PATH=/usr/local/bin/dxc
../neo/cmake-linux-debug.sh
cd ../build
make -j32
```

pkubaj:
Thanks, that indeed fixes the build issue for me. But I'm still getting the same runtime issue as before - a segfault after loading the first level.
