Builds P3P3DS from your own Persona 3 Portable (ULUS-10512) ISO. Windows: P3P3DS-Builder-0.2.8.zip (wizard). Linux x86-64: P3P3DS-Builder-0.2.8-linux.tar.gz (console, ./P3P3DS-Builder --iso <iso>). Both need devkitPro with the 3DS packages.
Changes since 0.2.7
- Faster battles: the 3DS renderer does much less CPU work per draw. GPU state is only sent when it changes, and consecutive model draws with the same state are merged into one GPU draw (about 2 million game draws became 55 thousand). In the first battle in Azahar: 5.8 -> 9.9 fps (19 % -> 33 % of real time). Not yet measured on hardware.
- The bottom-screen report shows where battle time goes per draw step (
draw:line) and how many draws were merged.
Known issues (maintainer's New 2DS XL / Azahar)
- Battle: still slow (about 10 fps in Azahar). Next target: 20 fps at full speed.
- Field: 21-30 fps at about 90 % speed; saves work; no sound; opening movie skipped.
