TWoM Vita

This is a wrapper/port of This War of Mine and This War Of Mine: Stories - Father's Promise for the PS Vita.

The port works by loading the official Android ARMv7 executables in memory, resolving their imports with native functions and patching them in order to properly run.

Notes

This port, as specified before also, can be used to run This War Of Mine: Stories - Father's Promise as well. Check the Setup Instructions paragraph to understand how to set it up. There also is support for all DLCs of base game (Season Pass and The Little Ones). You can find more information regarding this contents in the DLCs Support paragraph.

Setup Instructions (For End Users)

In order to properly install the game, you'll have to follow these steps precisely:

Install kubridge and FdFix by copying kubridge.skprx and fd_fix.skprx to your taiHEN plugins folder (usually ux0:tai) and adding two entries to your config.txt under *KERNEL:

  *KERNEL
  ux0:tai/kubridge.skprx
  ux0:tai/fd_fix.skprx

Note Don't install fd_fix.skprx if you're using rePatch plugin

Optional: Install PSVshell to overclock your device to 500Mhz.
Install libshacccg.suprx, if you don't have it already, by following this guide.
Obtain your copy of This War of Mine legally for Android in form of an .apk file and one or more .obb files (usually com.elevenbitstudios.twommobile.obb located inside the /sdcard/android/obb/com.elevenbitstudios.twommobile/) folder. You can get all the required files directly from your phone or by using an apk extractor you can find in the play store.
Open the apk with your zip explorer and extract the file libAndroidGame.so from the lib/armeabi-v7a folder to ux0:data/twom.
Rename com.elevenbitstudios.twommobile.obb to main.obb and place it inside ux0:data/twom.
Optional: The vpk supports This War of Mine: Stories - Father's Promise as well. In order to install and play it, open its relative apk and place the file libAndroidGame.so from the lib/armeabi-v7a folder inside ux0:data/twom renamed as libAndroidGameStories.so.

DLCs Support

DLCs for This War of Mine can be enabled by editing a config file named settings.cfg located inside ux0:app/TWOM00000. We strongly encourage to enable support for these contents solely if you possess these contents on your Android device. Sadly, we have no way to propose a license check on Vita against your purchased in-game contents on Android, so show respect and support 11 bit studios first before proceeding. Open the file ux0:app/TWOM00000/settings.cfg and change enable_dlcs=0 to enable_dlcs=1.

Build Instructions (For Developers)

In order to build the loader, you'll need a vitasdk build fully compiled with softfp usage.
You can find a precompiled version here: https://github.com/vitasdk/buildscripts/actions/runs/1102643776.
Additionally, you'll need these libraries to be compiled as well with -mfloat-abi=softfp added to their CFLAGS:

mpg123

Apply mpg123.patch using patch -Np0 -i mpg123.patch.

autoreconf -fi
CFLAGS="-DPSP2 -mfloat-abi=softfp" ./configure --host=arm-vita-eabi --prefix=$VITASDK/arm-vita-eabi --disable-shared --enable-static --enable-fifo=no --enable-ipv6=no --enable-network=no --enable-int-quality=no --with-cpu=neon --with-default-audio=dummy --with-optimization=3
make install

openal-soft

cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=${VITASDK}/share/vita.toolchain.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-mfloat-abi=softfp .. && make install

libmathneon
- ```
make install
```
vitaShaRK
- ```
make install
```

kubridge

mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. && make install

vitaGL

make SOFTFP_ABI=1 SAMPLERS_SPEEDHACK=1 SAMPLER_UNIFORMS=1 NO_DEBUG=1 install

After all these requirements are met, you can compile the loader with the following commands:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. && make
