Lindbergh VR ports v0.2.6

on GitHub

Sega Lindbergh arcade games in VR, for Meta Quest 3, Quest 3S and Quest Pro:

The games themselves are not included. Each APK holds a port: the game's
code recompiled to run natively on the headset, the VR host, and its
libraries. You need your own copy of the arcade game.

New in v0.2.6

• Dual wielding in all four games: turn on Dual wield in the settings
  panel (it is saved). The gun hand is player 1; the other hand is player 2,
  with a blue laser and a red dot. Each hand's thumbstick click is that
  player's Start. Player 2's gun goes through the cabinet's JVS, as on the
  arcade.
• Gun models: The House of the Dead 4 and The House of the Dead 4 Special
  put a B&T TP9 in your hand; Ghost Squad Evolution a model of the cabinet's
  own gun controller. The red-dot sight is a slim reflex sight in every game.
• Performance on the Quest: The House of the Dead 4 does its GL work on
  its own thread; the games' own GLSL shader programs are cached on disk, so
  scenes start with less stutter after the first run; gl4es builds shader
  text faster; The House of the Dead 4, Let's Go Jungle! and Ghost Squad
  Evolution are re-translated with the current lifter (faster game code);
  viewport and scissor reads no longer wait for the GL thread, nor do
  client-array batches or glXMakeCurrent (in The House of the Dead 4, from 52
  waits a frame to none); queueing GL calls is cheaper.
• The settings panel's last row (Close) is no longer cut off.
• Let's Go Jungle! is still experimental (a bit buggy), as in v0.2.5.
• Installing over v0.2.5 keeps your settings (same signing keys). As before,
  bring your own game files: the APKs contain no game data.

Install

1. Enable developer mode on the headset and install the APK with
   SideQuest or adb install -r <apk>.
2. Copy the game to the headset's shared storage (over USB, allow file
   access in the headset: Internal shared storage; SideQuest's file browser
   works too):
   • Ghost Squad Evolution: your whole vsg_l folder as
     GhostSquadEvolution/vsg_l, so the executable is at
     /sdcard/GhostSquadEvolution/vsg_l/vsg
     (adb push vsg_l /sdcard/GhostSquadEvolution/).
   • The House of the Dead 4: the game's elf, fs and drv folders
     into HouseOfTheDead4, so the executable is at
     /sdcard/HouseOfTheDead4/elf/hod4M.elf
     (adb push elf fs drv /sdcard/HouseOfTheDead4/).
   • Let's Go Jungle!: lgj_final and its data, shader and
     extraShader folders into LetsGoJungle
     (adb push lgj_final data shader extraShader /sdcard/LetsGoJungle/).
   • The House of the Dead 4 Special: the game's elf and fs folders
     into HouseOfTheDead4Special, so the executable is at
     /sdcard/HouseOfTheDead4Special/elf/hod4M.elf
     (adb push elf fs /sdcard/HouseOfTheDead4Special/).
3. Start the game from Unknown Sources. The first time it opens the system
   screen to allow access to all files: allow it, then start the app again.
   (Or grant it from a computer:
   adb shell appops set --uid <package> MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE allow, with
   org.lindbergh.gse.vr, org.lindbergh.hotd4.vr, org.lindbergh.lgj.vr
   or org.lindbergh.hotd4sp.vr.)

Each port only runs the exact game version it was built from:

If the game is missing or a different version, the app closes and explains
why in Android/data/<package>/files/HOW-TO-ADD-THE-GAME.txt.

Updates install over the previous version and keep the game files, settings
and saved cabinet data.

Play

Trigger fires, grip reloads (or pull the trigger pointing off the screen), a
thumbstick click is Start, and coins are automatic; in The House of the Dead 4
Special, shake the gun to reload. The left controller's
menu button opens the settings panel: sights, laser, gun model, gun hand,
dual wield, resolution, display rate, recentring, and Reset game. With dual
wield on, the other hand is player 2, and each hand's thumbstick click is its
player's Start.
