Duke Nukem 3d - Sansa Fuze - SDL problem

[dar02]

Hi
I am trying to run Duke3D on my Sansa Fuze.
I am using last dev build (03718bd-181115).
When I am trying to run the game, after loading GRP and CON files I am getting "BUILDSDL: Failed to set 220x176 video mode!"
220x176 is the native Sansa Fuze LCD screen resolution.
How to fix this problem?

[__builtin]

Is there any more to that error message?

[dar02]

No, after this error message it quits.
The error message appear only for about 1 or 0.5 second.

I attach pictures.

And just before error message:

[__builtin]

Hmm, I think I might know the cause. The Atomic GRP is pretty big. Could you give the shareware demo a try?

EDIT: Also, does it say it's caching the GRP completely or partially?

[dar02]

The same problem using 1.3d shareware.

It says "Not caching large GRP (10777KB)"

[__builtin]

I can't verify it currently, but I'm still suspecting a memory issue. I'll look into this further when I have some time.

[__builtin]

It indeed looks to be a memory issue, at least in the simulator (Fuze has 8 MB). I'll try and find some way to scrounge up some more memory, but it won't be easy.

EDIT: ...more like nearly impossible. Duke uses 11 MB on ipod6g without caching.

I have same error. how to fix this???

[__builtin]

The game simply uses too much memory to run on the Fuze, which has only 8MB of RAM. I'll have to disable it for all targets with insufficient memory.

The same issue obviously applies to Quake. Doom is highly unstable.
