My first test with llama-server, so you can use llama.cpp with a WebUI. You can start it with --host 0.0.0.0, to make it available on the network.

I tried to get llama-tts (text-to-speech) working on RISC-V, but I got an error. I downloaded llama.cpp 0.4.0 for ARM Linux, and I can generate an audio file with llama-tts and Qwen3 TTS 12Hz 1.7B Base.

Testing ARMSX3 0.9.6 Android PS3 emulation on my Samsung Flip 6. I still haven't found good settings for God of War 3, but Super Stardust HD is playable.

I wanted to test The Dark Mod with idTech4A++ with Waydroid. It crashes on my Radxa Dragon Q6A, so I tried with my Phytium D2000 and AMD Radeon RX550. Looks like you do need a capable GPU.

Someone asked me if it possible to run idTech4A++ with Waydroid (Android container for Linux). I have tried building it directly for Linux, but I ran into some issues.
But this is an easy way to play several games (Doom3, Quake4, Serious Sam and more) on ARM SBCs.

Testing the new optimised OpenGL ES 3 renderer for Yamagi Quake 2 on the SpacemiT K3 RISC-V SoC.
At 1080p I didn't see it drop below 100 fps.

Playing the id Tech game Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory on Android with idTech4A++, and also playing Serious Sam.
Looks like you need the full game files, as Doom 3 didn't work with the demo game file.

Someone on my Fluxer channel asked if it possible to emulate Super Nintendo (SNES) on RISC-V. You can build it from source and I tested the free game Super Boss Gaiden.

Someone reported that it is possible to play Doom 3 on RISC-V with D3 Web Assembly (D3WASM). Unfortunately I only have the demo, and I got an error message about a missing animation. It does work on ARM with the demo (Raspberry Pi 4 in this case).

Someone showed me how to get Quake 3 running on the VisionFive 2 RISC-V SBC with OpenGL ES.
Runs pretty nice, but I'm really bad at this game.
