DXX 3DS

Template:Infobox 3DS homebrew

Github: https://github.com/RossMeikleham/DXX-3DS Release: (Only .3dsx, no .cia yet :():https://github.com/RossMeikleham/DXX-3DS/releases

Port of Descent 1 & 2 of aagellag's DXX-Switch, which is a port of DXX-Rebirth

I've only tested this on my 2DSXL, might not run at the full 60fps on the O3DS/2DS models

Install instructions D1X Switch

Create the folder /3ds/D1/
Copy descent.hogand descent.pig to the same directory. These files are included with a purchase of the game. Tested with Descent I from Steam.

D2X Switch

Create the folder /3ds/D2/
Copy descent2.ham, descent2.hog, descent2.s22, and all *.pig files to the same directory. These files are included with a purchase of the game. Tested with Descent II from Steam.

Music

The 3DS is unable to play the hmp converted to midi files in the Descent games
On first run of D1X/D2X, midi files from the respecitive game will be copied to/3ds/D1/midi/ and /3ds/D2/midi/
These midi files can be converted to WAV though a program such as Timidity with Fluidr3 soundfonts See here
Also GoG version apparently comes with MP3 versions of all the music files for each game, these should be able to be copied to /3ds/D1/mp3/ and /3ds/D2/mp3/ if the filenames match the midi names for each sequence/level
Descent1/2 will attempt to first play music from /3ds/D1/wav and /3ds/D2/wav, then /3ds/D1/mp3 and /3ds/D2/mp3
The names (not including the file extension) need to match the names of the midi songs but can be replaced with your own music if desired

Known issues and missing features

Unable to get a working .cia version (I think his is due to the large amount of stack space used by DXX Rebirth (around 4-8MB), default 3DS stack space is 32KB. Setting __stacksize__ to 8MB works fine with loading the 3dsx version through the homebrew browser, but .cia builds automatically crash) This might also be due to me not having a correct rsf file. The repository currently�has a build script which creates the .cia builds with banners, icons, and jingles working but crashes on running.
Multiple save files don't work (currently hardcoded to player.plr)
Only tested with the Descent files from Steam; GOG and CD-ROM releases have not been tested
Enable the original HUD
Network/Multiplayer is not enabled
Level Selection menu doesn't work (no way to input a different level)

D1X

End of level "sequence" is skipped, was causing a segfault/crash

D2X

Movies disabled, these were also causing crashes
