Re: Xbox 360 wireless controller - can't make it working correctly

I cannot tap the device, as it is an Amazon Fire TV that is attached (via HDMI cable) to my TV. ;) I will try without specifically using the controllermap app and simply use the gamepad settings within RVGL. And thanks for your explanations! PS: Worth to note is that the controllermap app works perf...

Load and add missing assets in one batch automatically?

Hi everybody, Somewhere there are instructions to not overwrite files of the basic RVGL installation when manually adding missing game assets (as far as I correctly remember). Why should we not simply overwrite files? Are the ones from the additional assets older than the ones that come with the ins...

Re: Xbox 360 wireless controller - can't make it working correctly

And what does this app need full network access for? I would like to have RVGL and the controllermap apps completely offline for the kids. Is that possible or will there be undesired side effects when being offline? Is there a way to have internet/WAN traffic blocked on the device, while retaining l...

Is the updated (test) controllermap under this link? (or is this the old one?)

Oh, this will indeed be very interesting. While I have no great coding skills, I would like to help. My kids (and myself ;)) are also good testers. :D

Re: Problem with cloning rvgl-base/core (--recursive)

Not yet, but I will do and let you know how it runs on the Fire TV. I am also curious about your update of the mapping app - thanks for both! :)

Re: Problem with cloning rvgl-base/core (--recursive)

Thank you! Please excuse my lack of knowledge, but I have a question about master vs. tag. Is the following correct to check out?

Code: Select all

git clone --depth 1 --branch 20.0430a https://gitlab.com/re-volt/rvgl-base.git --recursive
(assuming that I can simply ignore the error message for the core)

Auto-update GameControllerDB from GitHub?

Hello,

Is the GameControllerDB in RVGL static? If yes, maybe it could in the future be auto-updated from there:

Re: (Suggestion) Splitscreen on android?

Yes, RVGL runs great even an Amazon's Fire TV. Splitscreen mode would be wonderful indeed. :) A question/proposal: Will it be possible somewhere in the future that 2 devices can offer splitscreen mode for more than 1 player and - at the same time - connecting them via local LAN? I.e. could 4 players...

Re: RVGL on Android

Yeah, it is really :cool: And it also runs on the old Amazon's Fire TV stick, surely even better on the 4K stick. But even without 4K, it plays very decently with all GFX settings set to max. And the Fire TV stick is available for less than 30 bucks (depending on special offers and the like). Until ...

A sidenote about SuperTuxKart

Hello, please forgive me my noob questions: Could RVGL eventually become a kind of "engine" for similar games? Are you aware of SuperTuxKart? (see GitHub , forum , and a Youtube video of STK 1.2 ) STK is - besides RVGL - my favorite kart racing game. :D Both are quite different, but there ...

Re: RVGL on Android

Ah, thank you! :) And the core RVGL source? Is it not public? Are there any plans to publish/make it open, too? Please accept my apologies if I have overseen any such earlier announcements or expansions.

Back to the Android update: I understand that I should wait a few days, right?

Re: RVGL on Android

Can the full source code (with assets for Android) be obtained from somewhere, or is it not fully open? I would like to build RVGL for Android (and Fire OS/Amazon's Fire TV) myself. I assume that for building for Android, some specific assets for Android are needed, right?

Thank you so much! I can test this also on Amazon's Fire TV with 4 controllers (from 2 different makes, each), connected via Y-cable. Until now, splitscreen is not yet available for Android.
