Applications and Porting / Re: [GAMES] Quake 3 source port with Vulkan renderer (vkQuake3)

I'm pretty sure he's referencing to your own feature request.

its mainly on the discord. The main dev is in ukraine so deals with bombings.

I should add quake3e as it is can compile just fine on ppc64le (after one guy made some hacky build instructions to slap on it), and it performs better than ioquake3 and the like still.

all of the engines currently still use an interpreter for QVM (which means really bad performance, noticeable in the mod CPMA), quake3e plans on having native support for ppc64le eventually.

Great
How many FPS?

Not the greatest. I need to try to compile with some optmization CFLAGs, it can vary from over 80 to down to 20~30 something depending on whats going on.

as an update, didn't do much but i think this is mostly due to the render and engine rather than PPC64LE, can always benefit from a power dev though.

Awesome! I actually just found a LuaJIT fork modified to compile for ppc64le a little while ago and was going to try and compile it this weekend, but it looks like the community beat me to it. Is this the main branch of the project that now compiles for ppc64le? If so, I will try to do that in the next week instead.

No, and it was more than just LuaJIT. PR is being submitted and waiting to be added to the main branch. Engine could use some more optmizations for PPC64 but the opengl renderer is bad on any platform until they have vulkan implemented.

STALKER now runs natively on IBM POWER thanks to openXray and porting progress over a few months. Performance isnt the greatest so far but its been stable with no crashes and perfectly playable

doesn't work for me on fedora 38 or opensuse tumbleweed, worked fine on opensuse leap 15.4 and 15.5, the RPMs that is, but the binary builds dont work either

 If you have capacity, please give it a try to see if we have to patch anything for F38

I don't, or I would, and I'd probably be porting more stuff to opensuse if I did. I'm only on fedora right now because of the lack of libs and packages for opensuse on ppc64le. Idk how big endian tumbleweed is.

I should also mention that online multiplayer with xash3d functions fine. CS 1.6 is also in progress
