FHeroes2 port for PS Vita
Building
Prerequisites
- libSDL2 (libSDL1 works, but performance is far superior with second one)
- libSDL2-mixer (optional, but sound is corrupted without it in libSDL2 build)
- libSDL2-image (optional)
- libSDL2-ttf (optional, but required for translations)
To build the game just run
make -f Makefile.vita
Original data
FHeroes2 requires data files from the original Heroes of Might and Magic 2.
Copy HEROES2.AGG and HEROES2X.AGG (if you own Price of Loyalty expansion) from the original games DATA folder to the ux0:data/fheroes2/data and everything from MAPS folder into the ux0:data/fheroes2/maps.
Data from GoG version of the game is working nicely. Files from the demo version should work too.
Music files in OGG format should be placed into the ux0:data/fheroes2/files/music/ folder.
In order to get music working with audio from GoG release, some file renaming is required (at least with my version of the game).
