Might be a silly question but do you think Mythruna might be do'able on a Pi?

"The Raspberry Pi's GPU boasts 1 Gpixel/s, 1.5 Gtexel/s or 24 GFLOPs of general purpose compute power and is OpenGL 2.0 Compliant."

Cheesy I Got a RPI for Christmas and would LOVE to see Mythruna on it. Even if it can only be an optimized pre-alpha type build. Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

Theoretically if it can run Java and OpenGL then it's possible.

The nice thing is that when I'm ready to play with this sort of thing the hardware will be further along. Smiley

I bet by next year the $35 Pi will be rocking a dual core processor with a gig of RAM.
Just make sure to keep it in the back of your head for next year. Wink

Think of that and multiply it by 2 for next year.

Hey guys =)

I've tested mythruna on the raspberry pi with the raspbian image.
But i cant start the game, it shows "unsupported architecture: arm".

Any ideas?

There has been no effort to port to this platform.  I have no idea what changes will need to be made.

Which distribution were you trying to run and how were your trying to run it?  I didn't even know the Pi had Java on it.

you just answered your own question. The game was not designed to run on an ARM architecture so even if it uses a Java VM it still wont function.

you can get Java 6 for the RPi through one of the repos.

Yeah, actually now that I think about it... this must be an error related to the LWJGL libraries.  Mythruna (and other jme apps) only ship shared native libraries for a handful of platforms and I think ARM is not one of them.  I don't know if there is an lwjgl for ARM or not.

Something to play with another time, I guess.
