To install devilutionX, just copy the __init__.py to a newly created folder under /home/cpi/apps/Menu and run it from the menu. The folder then symbolizes the devilutionX icon. From this menu, you can press 'X' to clone the git repository for devilutionX and compile the code. Dependencies are installed automatically (cmake and SDL development packages). Once installed, 'X' pulls the updated code and does the compiling. Note that any changes made locally to the source are reverted before pulling.
When the compile is finished and the diabdat.mpq is in place at '/home/cpi/.local/share/diasurgical/devilution/', you can play the game.
- To run the Diablo: Hellfire expansion you will need to also copy hellfire.mpq, hfmonk.mpq, hfmusic.mpq, hfvoice.mpq.
- For Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text support download https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionx-assets/releases/latest/download/fonts.mpq and add it to the game folder.
- For the Polish voice pack download https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionx-assets/releases/latest/download/pl.mpq. Enjoy!
For ClockworkOS v0.5, buster-backports are required to have updated libraries: https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
When the game is compiled and the mpq files are in place, you can press "A" in the devilutionX menu to play.
The following key mapping is in place. Unfortunately, the mapping is not trivial as devilutionX and GameShell use their own not(yet) compatible shift mechanism. The mapping is based on the standard GameShell keyboard layout, devilutionX uses the Nintento mapping.
