Versions supported

All known versions supported.

Data setup

You are expected to get a clean set of data from a prestine drive. Ensure that the game version matches one of the supported versions listed.

You need two main folders:

data
settings

Data folder

Contents of the folder:

game: The binaries of the custom "AMFS". File names must be lower case.
lib: Put any libraries (especially older versions of libraries that can't be installed anymore using the package manager) the game uses and aren't installed on your system in here.
piu: The piu executable

Settings folder

The contents of the folder are auto generated if the files don't exist. Otherwise, this folder contains:

PIUPRIME.INI
RANK.DATA

log_file_path=/tmp/pumptools.log
log_level=3
enable_file_monitor=0
enable_io_monitor=0
piuio_emu_lib_path=/pumptools/lib/piuio-emu.so
piuio_exit_test_service=1

Run the game

Ensure you are running an X screen. Otherwise, you have to start one along with the game. Various library/system-calls require root privileges. Make sure to run the game as root or with sudo (otherwise you get various sorts of errors, typically permission denied). Use the included run.sh file to start the game on a desktop environment.

Further notes

Vsync

The game is required to run with vsync on.
