This is a port of xsystem35-sdl2 to the PlayStation Vita. xsystem35 is an open-source implementation of AliceSoft's System 3.x game engine.
Installation
Create a subdirectory under ux0:data/xsystem35/ and copy all .ald and .ain files from the game directory into it.
For BGM, you must rip the CD audio from the game disk and create a playlist pointing to the files (see the section on BGM here).
xsystem35-vita defaults to looking for a file named playlist in the game directory so it is not necessary to create a .xsys35rc file.
File placement example:
ux0:data\xsystem35\
|-Kichikuou Rance\
| |-bgm\
| | |-kichiku_2.mp3
| | |-kichiku_3.mp3
| | |-...
| |-KICHIKUGA.ALD
| |-KICHIKUGB.ALD
| |-KICHIKUSA.ALD
| |-KICHIKUWA.ALD
| |-System39.ain
| |-playlist
where the file playlist contains:
(The first line in this file is ignored.) bgm/kichiku_2.mp3 bgm/kichiku_3.mp3 ...
Known issues
Startup time for some games (especially KR) is really bad. This is caused by the game rendering a bunch of invisible text at startup (TTF font rendering on Vita is pretty slow).
The game looks ugly/blurry. The Vita has a vertical resolution of 544 pixels, whereas System 3.x games usually run at a slightly lower resolution (400 or 480). Slight upscaling like this inherently produces a lousy result. You can run games at their original resolution if your eyes start bleeding: just hit the Start button to open the menu and switch fullscreen off.
