After years of waiting, finally Bomberlink leaves the world of game programming with the best Bennu Game/Remake ever created!!!
Months of fun are waiting for you in your Gp2x Wiz, Wii, PC, and Linux machines xDDD



Gp2x Wiz version is coming soon, very soon

[jlenoconel]

Played the game and its awesome. SORR contains elements from all three previous SOR games.
Bombergames.net has the game there. There will be a Wiz, and I think a Wii port, but not sure about Cannoo (hopefully we will just be able to use Ginge, but there's not telling). Super excited by this!

The game is suspended by imposition of SEGA, there is no more oficial download, so let's wait to the final veredict

If Sega end up suspending this project indefinitely and cause almost 10 years of hard work to be for nothing, I will never forgive them. I won't be buying another Sega product and I will think they are the most petty assholes that ever existed. Why didn't they stop the project, say, 4-5 years ago!?!

SEGA you better not mess this up for everyone.

Afterall, people have still been buying the originals despite all the other Beats of Rage type games that are out there.

Besides, you currently haven't announced doing anything new with the IP in a very long time.

In fact, if anything this should be good advertisement for the series, and you should support, but more importantly try to do better than this fan game, (with an ACTUAL sequel).

If Activision can allow for fan games, and even use that to relaunch the IP, then you definately can!

(Don't make me hate you SEGA. I want to play this on my Caanoo goddamnit!)

[Popcorn Dave]

Aw, shit. Not massively surprising though, IP laws are cruel like that.

[trickytree]

This shouldn't have been posted in the Wiz news section until the Wiz version was actually released.

There's some instructions on how to get the game working on the Wiz over at GP32 Spain, http://www.gp32spain.com/foros/showthread.php?t=81909&page=8
It's the last post at the bottom of the page.

Not sure if it works or if anyone has even tried, damn Google Translate.

I´ve been fast enough to download the PC-version, but i´d really love to see that on my Caanoo(via Ginge).

I got the PC one, trying to understand spanish now ;-)

Failed miserably,

Tried the following,

followed translated notes on that page -

run on pc to get past 1st time config, set bgm to none and exit.

in mod folder edit system.txt set system to

// OFFICIAL PORTS : PC, WIZ, WII
// UNOFFICIAL PORTS : HANDHELD, XBOX, PSP
system = WIZ;

// LOADING TYPE : POST, REALTIME
loading = REALTIME;

downloaded bgd-bgd-1.0.0RC23(r244)-openwiz.tar.gz and extracted to sd card, includes pacman and galaga which I ran to check it worked.

copied sorrv5 to /sor folder

created a gpe with the following code as per the site:

#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:../bgd-runtime
PATH=$PATH:../bgd-runtime
echo 2 > /proc/cpu/alignment
bgdi SorR.dat
cd /usr/gp2x
exec /usr/gp2x/gp2xmenu

Just get stuck at now loading :-(

Oh well, maybe someone smarter or better at spannish will have more luck :-(

Used notepad, could that be the problem

[pepppe]

Used notepad, could that be the problem

LoL, me too and failed have I.

I'm searching for converter software...

[Damian IW]

I got it working !

http://yfrog.com/h4letfaj [url="http://yfrog.com/h4letfaj"]link[/url]

Damn notepad! used ultraedit and now it's good

[list]

[*]Get Bennu for Wiz - Extract it so the bgd-runtime and bgd-galaxian are in the root of your SD card, check galaxian will run on your WIZ, this tests your Bennu is working :-)

[url="http://www.bennugd.o...g/node/2"]Bennu Download Link[/url]

[*]Get SoRr v5 for PC and extract to sor in root of SD card (you're on your own here!)

[*]Open /mod/system.txt file and edit to look as below:

// OFFICIAL PORTS : PC, WIZ, WII
// UNOFFICIAL PORTS : HANDHELD, XBOX, PSP
system = WIZ;

// LOADING TYPE : POST, REALTIME
loading = REALTIME;

[*]Run Game Once on PC - Leave Video as Normal, in Audo Set BGM to NONE

[*]Copy the sample galaxian bgd-galaxian.gpe to your 'sor' folder on your SD card and rename it something like sor.gpe edit to the following ! don't use Notepad or Wordpad use something like UltraEdit but don't convert it to Dos

#!/bin/sh
unset OS_ID

## Is important set first bgd-runtime folder
LD_LIBRARY_PATH_BAK=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
PATH_BAK=$PATH

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../bgd-runtime:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
PATH=../bgd-runtime:$PATH

### For use Wiz games on Caanoo uncomment the next lines
#OS_ID=8
#export OS_ID

echo 2 > /proc/cpu/alignment

bgdi SorR.dat

sync

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH_BAK
PATH=$PATH_BAK

cd /usr/gp2x
exec /usr/gp2x/gp2xmenu

[*]open the new sor.gpe with notepad it shouldn't show carriage returns, if it does it wont work on your WIZ

[*]Put SD card in Wiz and enjoy, I'm going to have a go at a pollux_set script now to enable overclocking - never used pollux_set before though!

[*]I'm guessing reading the notes in the galaxian script this may work on caanoo, I don't know why the Wiz won't handle the sound, I'll play with downsampling the oggs when I get time or hopefully bomberlink will get permission from sega to launch it ;-)

[/list]

This was achieved through persistence and google translate and the people here:

, if I'm allowed to I'll upload these modified files here if the site supports it.
