C-Dogs SDL Vita Preview 1

Unofficial PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV port of C-Dogs SDL.

This preview includes the completed Vita/PSTV port, controller support, LAN multiplayer, and Vita-specific rendering and performance optimizations.

Installation

  1. Install C-Dogs-SDL-Vita.vpk using VitaShell.

  2. Extract C-Dogs-SDL-Vita-data.zip to:

    ux0:data/

  3. The resulting game data directory should be:

    ux0:data/cdogs-sdl/

    It should contain:

    ux0:data/cdogs-sdl/
├── data/
├── dogfights/
├── graphics/
├── missions/

└── sounds/

  4. Launch C-Dogs SDL from the Vita LiveArea.

LAN Multiplayer

LAN multiplayer is supported between Vita/PSTV systems running compatible builds of the port.

Systems must be connected to the same local network.

Known Issues

  • The Wolfenstein campaign has produced a crash after player death in at least one test where Wolfenstein was started after exiting Cyberdogs early. The exact reproduction conditions are still under investigation.
  • Local multiplayer with four AI-controlled players can produce substantial performance drops during heavy combat.
  • Extremely particle-heavy or effect-heavy scenes can still fall below the target frame rate.
  • Performance varies depending on campaign, number of actors, particle density, and visible effects.

Data Files

The separate data archive is required in addition to the VPK.

Install it so the final path is:

ux0:data/cdogs-sdl/
