openmw VS SDLPoP

OpenMW - The Elder Scrolls Morrowind clone. C++, OpenGL

I downloaded the build via openmw-0.48.0-Linux-64Bit.tar.gz, it runs very well, but whenever I add the game as a shortcut to steam, the performance fumbles, I get around 25-30 fps at best, and I tried to experiment a bit and search more on the internet for a solution before posting in here, but nothing have helped as of yet. If there's someone who worked it out, please share it with us.

They haven't been great at announcing progress lately, but it is ongoing. The GitHub page is showing plenty of commits still coming in: https://github.com/OpenMW/openmw/commits/master

It's open-source and anybody can take a look at the code. Trading and Speechcraft changes are detailed here and here, respectively.

There's also a fan made open source game engine recreation for it called OpenMW that makes it a dream to play on anything from an android phone to a Mac to a PC.

On the main openmw config, there's different files listed https://github.com/OpenMW/openmw/blob/master/files/openmw.cfg

Download this .dmg and install this version of OpenMW. I pulled it straight from their GitHub and it is the same one I use. Try the process with this see if it helps?

SDLPoP - Prince of Persia clone based on DOS disassembly. C, SDL2

I love the original Prince of Persia, and the SDLPoP fan remake plays beautifully on the Deck (just add the Windows/Linux version from here as a non-Steam game).

SDLPoP is an open source port of the original Prince of Persia using the sdl library. Yes, I've also gathered that it's a standalone application that doesn't run through RetroArch. The documentation for the particular Retropie port of it is a bit sparse, but from what I've been able to gather apparently if one has control issues they should use that gamecontrollerdb.txt file and configure it correctly, but it's just that I couldn't get it to work. Whether I'm doing something wrong or there's something wrong with the port itself given the hardware, I don't know, that's why I'm asking for help here. For reference, here's some of the information I've already gone through : https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

There's a source port to run the game on modern systems: https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

This is a good way to play this: https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

This is great and I also enjoy https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP where my favourite feature is the ability to take a screenshot of the whole level... which usually fits well within my 4K display.

Oh, and playing at 3840x1200 means that every original 320x200 pixel is ... 144 pixels!
