THPS Again …. Bits and Betas

Thursday 17th May, 2012 - By, - Categories: Emulation, Gaming - No comments

I used to muck around with Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater (THPS) 1 & 2 way back when; it was a fun scene. Lots of hacking and learning about the games went on during this period over on the Delphi Forums.

Recently I updated my Lucid (10.04 LTS) mythbuntu install to Precise (12.04 LTS). Along with it came MythTV 0.25 and XBMC 11.0 (Eden) and a raft of other issues. We have used XBMC as our MythTV frontend (with varying degrees of success) for a number of years. Unfortunately the XBMC shipped with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS does not talk to MythTV 0.25.
