Changelog

v1.6

Added support for internal .mid BGM tracks. No longer required to enable Autoload and supply external tracks for correct BGM playback.
Added support for GRPs in SSI format.
Added support for BAT scripts to fastly launch GRPs with custom arguments.
- Example of a working .bat script (BloodCM is not supported, this is just an example):
- eduke32 -game_dir ux0:data/EDuke32/BloodCM -grp ux0:data/EDuke32/BloodCM/BloodCM.grp -cfg ux0:data/EDuke32/BloodCM/bcm.cfg
Improved cache size detector and made so that it adjusts cache size accordingly to GRP request.
Fix for savegames. Now it's possible to overwrite an existing save as it should.
Increased engine timer accuracy.
Minor fixes that could lead to memory corruption.

v1.5.1

Reduced memory available from 330 MB to 300 MB to prevent crashes with some GRP files.
Added sceIme keyboard for inputting savegames names (Thanks to rsn8887).
Fixed autoload feature crashing the game on certain setups.

v1.5

Updated to a newer build of the engine (r6862).
Fixed autoload support. Now it works as intended. (Remember to set NoAutoload to 0 in eduke32.cfg).
Fixed graphics glitches with sprites and mirrors. Now they're correctly rendered.
Sprites are now rendered in higher quality.
Added a launcher on boot that allows to select what GRP to load.
Added a way at boot to launch the engine with custom commandline arguments for mods and special GRPs support.
Increased available RAM for the engine from 192 MB to 330 MB.
Added bilinear filtering to the final rendered framebuffer.
Fix for log file not being generated. Now it's correctly filled in ux0:data/EDuke32/eduke32.log.

-EDuke32 Vita is a port for PSVITA of EDuke32, a Build engine source port allowing you to play Duke Nukem 3D. Hopefully next updates will fix the known bugs (read the specific section) and will bring also better renderers support (Polymost renderer support is the first planned feature for next updates)
+Port of EDuke32, a Duke Nukem 3D source port, for PS Vita. It supports also add-on packs, mods and all other EDuke32 regular features.
-==Why porting it==
+==Installation==
-Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition is available for PSVITA so why porting it?
+Install the VPK on your homebrew enabled PS Vita or PS TV.
-# Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition is no longer sold cause of copyright issues
-# Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition requires you to re-buy the game if you already own Duke Nukem 3D while with EDuke32 you can re-use your own game files.
+Extract EDuke32.zip into ux0:data.
-# EDuke32 has several cool settings that Megaton Edition doesn't have.
+For add-ons installation, [https://wiki.eduke32.com/wiki/The_Official_Add-on_Installation_Guide take a look here].
