@tmcleroy tmcleroy released this 11 Oct 05:06

Fourth beta of an unofficial native port of Muscle March (WiiWare) for macOS, Linux, Steam Deck
and Windows.

You need your own copy of the game (Muscle March (USA) (WiiWare).wad) and your own Wii's
common key. No game files or keys are included or linked here.

What's new

  • Video page in the launcher. The internal resolution (Native, 2x or 3x: up to 1920 x 1344) can
    now be picked in the launcher; before it was only in settings.ini and the F10 menu. Changes
    made in the F10 menu while playing now show in the launcher afterwards instead of being
    overwritten at the next start.
  • The internal resolution stops at 3x. It went to 6x, but above 3x the menus ran below full
    speed even on fast graphics cards. A higher saved setting is drawn at 3x. Higher scales may come
    back once the renderer is faster
    (plan).
  • Faster drawing at 2x and 3x. The main pixel shader no longer copies its register arrays on
    every helper call. The picture is unchanged.

Third beta of an unofficial native port of Muscle March (WiiWare) for macOS, Linux, Steam Deck
and Windows.

You need your own copy of the game (Muscle March (USA) (WiiWare).wad) and your own Wii's
common key. No game files or keys are included or linked here.

What's new

  • Android, from source for now. The game builds as an arm64 APK with touch controls: the stick
    guides sit at the sides of the screen and are the sticks, with a pause button, and taps work in
    menus. There is no launcher on Android yet, so there is no APK to download here; building one
    needs a checkout and your own game files
    (docs/BUILDING.md).
    It runs below full speed on the one phone tried so far.
  • Nothing changes in how the desktop builds play; they are rebuilt from the same code.

Second beta of an unofficial native port of Muscle March (WiiWare) for macOS, Linux, Steam Deck
and Windows.

You need your own copy of the game (Muscle March (USA) (WiiWare).wad) and your own Wii's
common key. No game files or keys are included or linked here.

What's new

  • Windows: races no longer drop to 30 fps and half speed
    (#1). Thanks to @VGEsoterica for the
    report.
  • Key bindings saved by an earlier build that still equal an old default become the current
    default, so W/A/S/D and the arrow keys work on existing installs. Bindings you changed are kept.

Highlights

  • Plays the whole game natively, at any resolution, with a gamepad, keyboard and mouse, or real

    guides, pause with Start, and skippable start-up screens. Pure mode plays exactly as on the
    Wii.
