Overview

This is my Vita and Switch port of Cannonball, an enhanced Outrun engine by djyt.

Thanks djyt for writing such a great program and making sure it is easily portable.

Thanks to ScHlAuChi for testing.

Thanks to my Patreon supporters: Andyways, Count Duckula, Jesse Harlin, Thomas Luten, Matthew Machnee, Mored4u, Ibrahim Fazel Poor, RadicalR.

NOTE: Arcade roms for Outrun Version B are required to run this engine. The roms are NOT included in the download (see installation instructions).

A detailed Manual and FAQ are here:
https://github.com/djyt/cannonball/wiki

Switch Installation Instructions

Arcade roms from Outrun version B are required to run this homebrew, they are not included.

  • Extract the contents of cannonball_switch.zip into the folder switch/ on your sdcard. You should have a folder switch/Cannonball_Switch/.
  • Obtain the arcade roms for Outrun Version B and extract them into switch/Cannonball_Switch/roms
  • Launch the .nro file using your favorite homebrew launcher, enjoy Outrun in almost perfect 60 fps.
  • This version of Cannonball is called "Cannonball_Switch" to distinguish it from Lantus' port

Switch Controls

Note: Buttons can be re-mapped in menu

Minus = insert coin
Plus = start
Y = gas / OK in menu
B = brake
X = change gears
L = change in-game camera
R = menu
Dpad = menu navigation and digital steering wheel controls
Left stick = analog steering wheel if analog is set to ON or WHEEL ONLY, otherwise this is digital.
Right stick = analog gas/brake if analog is set to ON

Vita Installation Instructions

Arcade roms from Outrun version B are required to run this homebrew, they are not included.

  • Install the .vpk
  • Extract the contents of data.zip into ux0:data/ (it is just two folders and an info file for roms)
  • Obtain the arcade roms for Outrun Version B and extract them into ux0:data/cannonball/roms
  • Launch the bubble, enjoy Outrun in almost perfect 60 fps.

Vita Controls

Note: Buttons can be re-mapped in menu

L = insert coin
Square = start
Triangle = gas / enter letter on hi-score screen
Circle = brake
Cross = change gears
Select = change in-game camera
R = menu
Dpad = menu navigation and digital steering wheel controls
Left stick = analog steering wheel if analog is set to ON or WHEEL ONLY, otherwise this is digital.
Right stick = analog gas/brake if analog is set to ON

Notes about Vita version

  • Default difficulty is set to easy, but can be changed to normal or hard in the menu.
  • The game runs at full speed with almost constant 60 fps. The exception is some slowdown at the beginning of the race. That slowdown can also be eliminated by turning of widescreen mode in the menu, but then the picture is a bit smaller. The high-resolution hack should not be enabled, it causes too much slow-down.

Build Instructions

Cannonball needs some boost header-only libraries. To prepare compilation:

  • Download and extract boost_1_66_0.zip from here
  • copy the subfolder boost from that archive to $VITASDK/arm-vita-eabi/include/boost for Vita, or to $DEVKITPRO/portlibs/switch/include/boost for Switch
  • you should now have a file $VITASDK/arm-vita-eabi/include/boost/version.hpp, or $DEVKITPRO/portlibs/switch/include/boos/version.hpp and hundreds of other Boost header files.
  • Now that boost is installed, proceed to compile cannonball:
cd cannonball
mkdir build
cd build

then, for Vita:

cmake -DBUILD_PSP2=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../cmake
make Cannonball.vpk -j10

or, for Switch:

cmake -DBUILD_NX=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../cmake
make Cannonball_Switch.zip -j10

Note: The Vita source depends on FrangarCJ's Vita2d fbo branch with shader support here: https://github.com/Cpasjuste/vita2dlib/tree/fbo
and FrangarCJ's vita-shader-collection gtu branch here: https://github.com/frangarcj/vita-shader-collection/tree/gtu
Those are both included as binaries and linked automatically.

Overview

This is my Vita port of Cannonball, an enhanced Outrun engine by djyt.

Thanks djyt for writing such a great program and making sure it is easily portable.

Thanks to ScHlAuChi for testing.

Thanks to my Patreon supporters: Andyways, CountDuckula, and Sean Ritzo.

NOTE: Arcade roms for Outrun Version B are required to run this engine. The roms are NOT included in the download (see installation instructions).

A detailed Manual and FAQ are here:
https://github.com/djyt/cannonball/wiki

Notes about Vita version

  • Default difficulty is set to easy, but can be changed to normal or hard in the menu.
  • The game runs at full speed with almost constant 60 fps. The exception is some slowdown at the beginning of the race. That slowdown can also be eliminated by turning of widescreen mode in the menu, but then the picture is a bit smaller. The high-resolution hack should not be enabled, it causes too much slow-down.

Vita Controls

Note: Buttons can be re-mapped in menu

L = insert coin
R = menu
Square = start
Triangle = gas / enter letter on hi-score screen
Circle = brake
Cross = change gears
Select = change in-game camera
Dpad = menu navigation and digital steering wheel controls
Left stick = analog steering wheel if analog is set to ON or WHEEL ONLY, otherwise this is digital.
Right stick = analog gas/brake if analog is set to ON

Installation Instructions

Arcade roms from Outrun version B are required to run this homebrew, they are not included.

  • Install the .vpk
  • Extract the contents of data.zip into ux0:data/ (it is just two folders and an info file for roms)
  • Obtain the arcade roms for Outrun Version B and extract them into ux0:data/cannonball/roms
  • Launch the bubble, enjoy Outrun in almost perfect 60 fps.

Build Instructions

Cannonball needs some boost header-only libraries. To prepare compilation:

  • Download and extract boost_1_66_0.zip from here
  • copy the subfolder boost from that archive to $VITASDK/arm-vita-eabi/include/boost
  • you should now have a file $VITASDK/arm-vita-eabi/include/boost/version.hpp and hundreds of other Boost header files.
  • Now that boost is installed, proceed to compile cannonball:
cd cannonball
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../cmake
make Cannonball.vpk -j10

Note: The source depends on FrangarCJ's Vita2d fbo branch with shader support here: https://github.com/Cpasjuste/vita2dlib/tree/fbo
and FrangarCJ's vita-shader-collection gtu branch here: https://github.com/frangarcj/vita-shader-collection/tree/gtu
Those are both included as binaries and linked automatically.
