A fully functional Quake is available in Preware.
This one is courtesy of dtzWill and myself. Video is at YouTube - webosinternals's Channel ... The wiki page is at http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Application:Quake including a nice diagram of the keymap from jack87. -- Rod

Most awesome, it works rather well too!
From a technical standpoint, what's stopping it's playability right now? I noticed that it crashes upon starting a new game, so perhaps it's something to do with the initialization for loading the intro map or the player control mechanics? Or even the teleporter particles being too much for it to handle, any ideas? /ramble

Note: I'm dtzWill who did the porting work.
The crash on level start has already been fixed, I'll push it after I get some sleep sorry .The keybindings presently are the biggest issue, and it seems to be non-trivial (see sdldoom's keybinding situation). And, of course, there could be all kinds of other things since being unable to move makes testing difficult .

this is what I was waiting for since doom was made public. Awesome. Getting it playable would be a great leap forward. Framerate drops are noticeable but nothing too big. Goodwork though. C:

well done guys. Now if only we could get O2 to pull an all nighter and get 1.3.5 out to the rest of the world I could try it.
very exciting times in the pre world. |

I think, this is not the GL-Quake version. It's the software rendered version displayed with the SDL-Libary (2d-acclerated). If they manage to use the OpenGL drivers we will see a huge improvment. But for now it's really impressive :-)

Not sure how helpful this is, but the maemo/beagleboard guys have gotten Quake 1/2/3 working HW accelerated by using the nanoGL wrapper contained in the source packages here. Might be worth a look.
Edit: Wow it's nearly impossible to find source code or documentation for a lot of this OpenGL -> OpenGLES porting stuff. Last edited by Leathal; 01/02/2010 at 11:06 AM. |

I'm curious how we'll even be able to control the game with the Z-axis. Doom is easy since it is only really 2-D gameplay.
Don't think FPS is going to be the Pre's strong suit unless we can play in portrait mode with two thumbs.

It seems to have come out fairly well on the iPhone, and seeing as we have a real keyboard I think we have something of an advantage. Perhaps strafe and jump mapped to the keyboard and aiming/ shooting mapped to sliding/tapping the touchscreen?

Yeah... Right handed users would have the a/s key for strafing for example...
While left handed users would have the L and the backspace key for strafing. Would be great to see keys customized well for this. |
