Anyone here have a Vita?

[Dakangel]

so if this 3rd party release of vita port is stable should it become a official port ?

I would say no. This would mean more work for the very few devs we have here. Plus, that version is not official and we offer no support for it.

We are more droping ports rather than making new ones. Honestly speaking, if I was in charge on this, I would just let windows, android and linux only ports.

To tell the truth, the only port which widths the trouble is the android one.

Vita is one of thr case of non official port that people het an old official but not released build, fix some things and release it, not giving the the right credits.

Plombo what is this bug?

Im glad that you are not in charge here (or in mugen comunites also) and just a mere "moderator"; only the coders of the builds has the rights to answer that question and since openbor is a mess and open source engine everyone can put their knowledge to improve and make ports to several machines.

I dont think if you know the significance of porting, isn´t only the ability to play the paks on different enviroments and saturing their Ram memmories; is adapt certain core parts for the specified hardware to function in the relative same way on diferent platforms and keep a common functioning code for all the engines.

You said the same for the dreamcast port...... "we not offer suport"......we? i dont remember you apporting nothing to the source code. 
If "i was in charge" , i separate the video, audio and controller code and keep a common engine source just like snes9x and be thankfull that everyone else is aware of the use of the engine above every others out there.

rgb222,  rgb555, rgb565, rgba8888 modes and 4bits, 8bit- 16bit, 24 and 32 bit mages types would be managed in the respective consoles or machines to port and not in the common code, the common code needs tileset integration.

MangeX in fact, I am one of the persons in charge here - I am an administrator, not a "mere" moderator. Damon Caskey , who is the boss here, had made me so.
Even though I was only a "mere" moderator, my opinion would still be taken into account, both by my knowledge in general and by my contribution to the engine. I'm not better than anyone, but I'm no less or a user who comes out of nowhere and comes attacking that is contributing to the engine.

This is the official position of the dev team - Dream Cast port was officially drop more than 1 year ago. WE offer no support for discontinued ports, as you could easily read at the official repository if you wanted to https://github.com/DCurrent/openbor#discontinued

The same goes for non-official ports, like Vita, Raspberry Pi, Switch, etc. And yeah, I am listed at the source code. Nothing too fancy, but hey.

By your words, you can see that you came from Mugen communities. There is only one problem: this kind of childlike keyboard warrior behavior is not tolerated here. Many rules of this forum were rightly made thinking of this type of childish behavior that is very common there.

If you are here to contribute, be welcome. But if you came to cause problems, your stay will be very short - specially when you can the engine "a mess". I will not give you another warning.

No, it is correct. The Vita port on his GitHub is absolutely based on my work. It's clear from the git history. Maybe he had a port of his own at some point, but the one that people are distributing is based on mine. Though as K4Thos pointed out, it's actually someone else distributing the port and attributing all of the credit to him, so I don't think he deliberately took credit for my work.

Oh I wasnt aware of that - I stand corrected

Oh. Guess we might as well release it. I was already thinking about it...

Go for it

Thats why some people gets corrupted when given power and comes from nowhere, im in the openbor community since original lavalit days, and even since senile days.
i love read plombo and demon caskey answers because they always had been aported and supported the engine code, you are a ruler adult/child like with your mandatory behavior and know you because i love experiment with another engines, belive me im not married with any game maker........

Im very glad that plombo itself is doing a vita port and hope there are more like that to enjoy.

If you are here to contribute, be welcome. But if you came to cause problems, your stay will be very short - specially when you call the engine "a mess". I will not give you another warning.

the engine code is a really mess and demon caskey itself has admited, is constantly updated and not well documented  and he even is making his chronocrash engine to solve atrocious problems.
But my stances here are very short in all these years just as many many users worlwide.
i give you the credit (your ego loves been credited) to be the someone for it's not fun to be here anymore .

And done. Enjoy
Keyboard warriors...they never grow up.

MangeX, you're getting personal. That will not be tolerated under any circumstances. I know you've already been muted. Hopefully you can cool off and come back with a better attitude. In this forum, we don't always agree, but you will show O Ilusionista and everyone else (including yourself) respect or you don't get to stay here, simple as that.

As for the mess part - there is nothing wrong at all with OpenBOR's functionality. It has a share of bugs natch, but far fewer than any other app of its kind I've ever heard of, commercial or otherwise. By "mess" I mean that it has a lot of overlap and contributions from dozens of coders through the years, many of whom were not careful with what they were doing. It works, but it can be hard to read and debug. I can say that because for a time I was one of them. It's why we recently had to remove a developer - he was adding in code without any regard to engineering and when asked to stop flipped me the proverbial bird.

Point being, the mess is slowly but surely cleaning up, and for that very reason (along with many others) I'm loathe to add any official ports. The rest of what you said... well, to be frank you just don't know what you're talking about. No shame in that, until you decide to tell the rest of us we don't know any better. Take some time and we'll see you in 30 days.
