Thanks for the reviews on v0.1.0. This release goes through them.

Speed

  • Much faster in missions. The launcher no longer pins the game to a few "fast" cores, which was costing 12 to 14 points of speed on laptops.
  • The runtime was rebuilt so the CPU and GPU threads stop fighting over shared data, and it skips mod lookups that were done millions of times a second.
  • On an Intel i7-1355U laptop (plugged in), the opening mission now runs at about 90 to 100%, up from roughly 65%.

Sound

  • Sound effects should all play now: Accurate audio (Dolphin's DSP LLE) is on by default. The faster HLE drops sound effects in this game. You can switch it off in the settings window for about 5% more speed.

Movies

  • Fixed the vertical stripes in the FMVs (Dolphin's "Manual Texture Sampling" for the game's VP6 videos).

Install and launcher

  • The first run asks where to install the game files.
  • A settings window opens before each start: resolution, graphics (D3D11/Vulkan/OpenGL), fullscreen, widescreen, accurate audio, the speed display and reset controls, plus change disc, rebuild and open folder. Tick "Don't show this window" to skip it; hold Shift to get it back.
  • Setup shows progress and time estimates. A full build takes about 20 minutes on a plugged-in laptop.
  • .ciso disc images are accepted now, as well as .iso/.gcm and Dolphin-extracted discs.
  • Updating from v0.1.0 does not rebuild the game. New default settings are added and your own are kept.

Controls

  • Keyboard and mouse: WASD, mouse look, left click to fire, right click to aim, E action, Space jump, R reload, wheel for weapons, Esc to pause. Xbox-style controllers work as before. If you changed the controls in v0.1.0, press Reset controls in the settings window.

v0.1.0

@goodshepherd23 goodshepherd23 released this 02 Nov 18:58

First release: a build-from-disc kit for Medal of Honor: Frontline (GameCube, USA, GMFE69).

Unzip it and run MOHFrontline.exe. The first run asks for your disc and builds the game on your PC,
which takes 30 to 60 minutes. You can give it a .iso or .gcm image, or the files\Moh2RelGC.elf
inside a disc extracted with Dolphin. No game code or data is included.

  • Native recompilation with DolRecomp's C backend: direct cross-chunk calls, fast floating point and
    a PGO profile recorded in the first mission.
  • ModernGekko runtime on Direct3D 11, with the widescreen hack on (16:9 3D view; menus and HUD are stretched).
  • Keyboard and Xbox-style (XInput) controller both mapped.
  • Settings and saves are kept in %LOCALAPPDATA%\MOHFrontline-Recomp.

Missions run at roughly two-thirds speed on a 15 W laptop CPU (i7-1355U); faster CPUs do better. See the README.
