@Heromachine Heromachine released this 24 Aug 03:43

Early, incomplete release. See the README for known issues before playing.

Fixed in 0.2.0

  • Saved games are found again. The game could report no saved games even with valid saves on the card. The card layer signalled completion by setting a status flag instead of calling the handler the game had registered, so the game waited forever and gave up. Confirmed at the engine level — saves are enumerated and read — but not yet seen listed in the in-game load menu, because the loading-screen hang blocked reaching it.
  • Crackling and popping in the CGI. CD audio sectors were fed to the decoder about three times faster than the drive would deliver them, so the buffer wrapped and dropped samples.
  • Two internal correctness fixes from a code review, with no visible effect on play.

Still broken

The loading screen can hang before the main menu, with the bar empty — restart if it has not moved after a minute. One airlock door may not open. See the README for the full list.

Running it

Download the AppImage, mark it executable, and run it. You need your own copy of the game as a disc image with a .cue. No .NET install required.

v0.1.0

@Heromachine Heromachine released this 20 Aug 01:22

First release. Early and incomplete — playable, but expect problems. See the README's
Known issues
section for the full list (progression-blocking door bugs, occasional freezes on level transitions,
corrupted menu graphics, missing cutscene audio, ~4% fast timing).

Downloads

  • AppImage (recommended) — chmod +x, double-click, done. No separate .NET install, no
    extraction, no terminal required for normal use.
  • .zip — the same self-contained build as loose files, for anyone who'd rather not use an
    AppImage (e.g. no FUSE available).

Requirements

  • Your own copy of Alien Resurrection (USA), serial SLUS-00633, as a .cue + .bin disc image.
  • Linux x86_64. (Windows/other platforms not built yet.)
  • No PlayStation BIOS required — the engine is HLE by default.

Nothing here is redistributed game content — see the README for the full explanation of what this
project does and does not ship.
