Games Compatibility

Games which are known to be buildable and playable on Power9 Raptor systems, potentially with necessary tweaks needed in order to run.

Title	Compatibility	Hardware Tested	Software Tested	Notes
Minecraft	★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01?	Void Linux	Cannot use the native game launcher, text to speech as they are built for x86. multimc from repos, openjdk 8 or 11, default 4kB page kernel, getting >60fps easily regardless of the resolution (rx 5700 xt), works out of box. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,118.0.html

Minetest	★★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.2	Works without issues.
Trigger Rally	★★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.2	Controller/joy input must be enabled in ~local/share/trigger-rally/trigger-rally-0.6.6.config with "<joystick enable="yes">".
Flightgear	★★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.2	Flightgear handles the audio device independently, switching between Blackbird's onboard and a GPU's audio output must be done in-game.

Xonotic	★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.6	Infrequently locks up the desktop session requiring a hard reset. I have yet to determine the cause.
Veloren	★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.6	Fails to build on nightly rustc due to packed_simd. (error[E0635]: unknown feature mmx_target_feature) Awaiting packed_simd_2 with the 0.3.4 Veloren release.
Stunt Rally	★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 10.6	Some maps segfault at load time.
Barony	★★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 11.3	DOPENAL_ENABLED=ON when building, in order to have audio. But this is also true on x86 platforms.
Aleph One	★★★★★	Talos II (T2D9P01?)	Fedora 35	https://www.talospace.com/2022/03/tonights-game-on-openpower-aleph-one.html
Anarch	★★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 11.2	Works without issues. Building on Debian requires libgbm-dev and libdrm-dev be installed along with the repo's listed dependencies.
Vega Strike	★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Debian 11.3	Build fails at ~/engine/src/gfx/background.cpp. Add -Wno-narrowing to compiler flags ~/engine/CMakeLists.txt to workaround. Game runs but skybox rendering is distorted.
Tremulous	★★★★★	Talos II (T2D9P01?)	Fedora 35	Single player works, multiplayer untested. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,355.msg2828.html#msg2828

Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete edition (VCMI client)	★★★★	Blackbird C1P9S01	Fedora 32 (rawhide)	There are some quirks with video/graphic which seems to be only related to Fedora. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,104.msg936.html#msg936
