Raspberry Pi Zero - 7 dollar computer 55 FPS

Post by netpipe »

https://netpipe.ca/?p=4648

Irrlicht compiled with gl4es replacement GL.so https://github.com/ptitSeb/gl4es renamed it back to GL.so after making into libs folder.

I used codeblocks to do the linking using hardpath to the lib GL.so then did same in example.cbp and ran the example to see it going as fast as the minecraft examples.

smooth mouse movement, getting 55 FPS in windowed mode on 04.Movement demo.

Irrlicht works great on the Raspberry Pi, I've tried Irrlicht on the RPI3 and now RPI4 and the build process is painless.

next step is to see if we can get rpi0 in bulk prices. I have not herd of many being able to yet. would be nice to find a place that just says 10 dollars per unit free shipping then it would be easier to make business plans rather than only being able to order 1 at a time unless it has the header kit installed for 20 dollars.

Luna Game Engine - RaspberryPi 4 Edition.
Image says 29 fps because of vnc
https://www.mediafire.com/file/bvtvz4tr ... i4.7z/file

hopefully it turned out good mediafire has resume so i tried it , 700 mb for file


----------------------------
extract 7zip to /home/pi/dev or was it Dev folder then

sudo apt-get install synaptic launch it then read in the list of packages and it should download them "my-selections" is the filename

run luna.sh and it should start the game

you'll need these too for extra fun and development about 1 gb download or 4 gb uncompressed

tinycorelinux version https://github.com/netpipe/TCLinux i have some files here for the raspberrypi zero 2 . in the 13x/arm7/ folder.. i was able to make the movement demo have 40 FPS but it was with burnings renderer. for some reason the video drivers are not working as well as stock pi os.

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-d3d
gpu_mem=128

adding these 2 lines to the config.txt for boot folder seemed to help
going to be trying bullseye next and seeing what kinda numbers can be gotten from the pi zero 2.

https://github.com/ssvb/xf86-video-fbturbo maybe this helps later

the latest testing on bullseye for raspberry pi zero 2 are dissapointing i can only get 1 fps with opengl and minecraft demo is unplayable

update : it was 32 bit not 64 bit going to give the 64 bit version a try. it was armhf i needed so i looked for older version

2021-10-30-raspios-bullseye-armhf.img this yeilded 60 FPS on the Movement demo and 15 FPS on the castle demo which seemed very smooth still with GL4ES.
