box64 VS Cataclysm-DDA

In the video, they mentioned they can't run steam on RISC-V because box64 doesn't support 32bit apps. In the README of box64, it is mentioned:

I see it can do more now, already tried some stuff. But see it is now more mature than months ago. Will try factorio again https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/issues/665

Also, in the discussions of box64 is this thread: https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/discussions/524 My guess is that you have to install both box64 and box86, the latest mesa drivers with vulkan support. And then try to launch the game with proton. There is also this issue that shows factorio running on a Rock 5B: https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86-compatibility-list/issues/284

In Box64, which is an emulator+JIT recompiler, and thus likely pretty slow?

macOS runs x64 executables just fine through Rosetta so I don't see why Wine couldn't make use of that hardware acceleration.

It's also possible to only simulate the entrypoints through Rosetta and then execute native aarch64 code from there. On Linux https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64 does exactly that, for example. However, with the performance Apple has been able to squeeze out of Rosetta, I'm not sure of that workaround is even necessary.

Recently, I got a server from Oracle Cloud, having 4 cores and 24GB of RAM. Then, using a software called Box86 and its 64 bit version called Box64, I succeeded in running Factorio! Unfortunately, 1.1.80 ran at 3 UPS! I went through each major version, testing each individual one down to 0.12. Here are my results!

You could try https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86 and https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/ , I believe they allow you to emulate x86_64 on aarch64, though I have no experience with them, so cannot say for sure.

git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64.git

If you have time and patience take a look at box86 and box64. These are basically like translation layers that allow x86/x86_64 applications to run on ARM. I personally haven't use them yet, so I can't provide a guide or vouch for game compatibilities. But by the look of the progress made by them so far it looks promising.

You can follow progress of this on https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64/issues/635

And that sucks! I really wish being Huge (or Tiny, but I haven't tried that personally) felt more distinct than it does. You really shouldn't be able to operate holdout pistols, but you should be able to stuff a thanksgiving turkey in your coat pocket.

If you look in the jmath.json file (https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/blob/master/data/mods/MindOverMatter/jmath.json) under the matrix awakening odds and portal storm awakening odds, change the Return to "return": "0 * _0". That should set the odds of awakening to 100% regardless of how many paths you have.

Are you sure? I checked the initial PR and couldn't find any mention of an anvil, and I checked the current files, and also couldn't find any mention of an anvil.

There is not, but it was mentioned as a desired feature in the original PR introducing Electrokinesis so it will hopefully be added eventually.

Must be the newest experimental. Static hordes were added back to worldgen, the hordes option now only toggles dynamic hordes.

It currently works as of: https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/releases/tag/cdda-experimental-2023-12-09-0323

[default 3D field of view was reverted|https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/69940] because there were some bugs in the tests due to it

That said, I recommend Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, which offers something like this.

Each power has a different set of thresholds leading into different powers. You can check the JSON files for each class on github to see which powers lead into eachother at what level.

Yeah, I ran into a similar issue working on craftable bone spike spears. https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/57447 There is some decent research on the topic but it’s not open access which didn’t leave me with evidence to support my argument besides basically metadata. For the record I think this is reasonable, it’s just frustratingly difficult to find accessible modern research on these interesting topics
