I Played TES II: Daggerfall on the PlayStation Vita in text form:
OpenMW allows gamers to take the classic RPG on the go with them, playing Morrowind in places once thought impossible.
With Daggerfall Unity supplying a modern engine for The Elder Scrolls 2 then, can the same be done for Daggerfall?
No, not with unity anyway. As of the release of this video, there isn’t a mobile release of Daggerfall Unity, but you don’t need Unity to play DOS games.
Via emulation, you can use DOSBox to play the original version of Daggerfall on most Android phones, made even easier via Retroarch.
This was the conversation that started over on the discord (link in the description), which lead to a question - if Daggerfall can be played on phones, can it be played on the 2011 flagship handheld console?
This is how I got The Elder Scrolls 2 to play in the most cursed way possible.
Daggerfall on the Vita
Our story starts when a member over on the discord, started the adventure by installing Daggerfall on his phone, they then graciously tested whether this would be possible on a Vita by using an emulator - after many hours, they had found that it was possible.
However, you would not be able to utilise any of the easy-loading configuration files that you can normally benefit from with Retroarch.
What do I mean by that, well, look at install Arena onto the Vita. I take the install files from my PC, drop them into the Vita file system, boot up Retroarch, scan for games - and done! Arena is now there to be played.
Daggerfall isn't that easy, so it’s back to classic command line instructions to get anything working. That discord user successfully got the game running, but warned that an overclock would be needed - and so, it was my turn. - Hry

This was a fun little video that I just wanted to experiment with. Have no fear, I am still hard at work on the Arena analysis, which is shaping up to be over 2 hours long and so so so much better written and deeper than I ever got with the Daggerfall video.
Looking forward!
The PS Vita was such a gem
@GreenTea💚 piracy and homebrew gives it a new, alternate life, its still got a lot of great games and ports like Ninja Gaiden. Short of getting a high end android gaming machine, it's the best way to play retro games via emulation on the go.
I love the vita a lot, I actually have 2 of em lmao. Plus once you hack the vita all the games are free and the trophies even sync, it's nuts.
yeah it's sad how it was treated by Sony, I loved it. And it's true that with emulation it's just amazing. Mine actually died not long ago, I should try to repair it or just get a new one. I got a steam deck in the meantime but it's not the same... it's too big lol.
Ain’t got nothing on a RED GOD OF WAR PSP
@@noots_central1082 considering you can play all the psp games on it with a second analog stick, yeah it does. I do love the PSP though. It's crazy the graphics it was doing back in the day, the games still look great.
Love the "kill me master" noises your Vita Does at first. And realistically, I expect a speedrunner community growing on Daggerfall Vita Runs, thanks to your video. Some people needs suffering just to feel something.
A sadistic experiment, straight from the torture chambers of some Daggerfall dungeon XD
I truly hope that someday we will see Daggerfall Unity ported over the the Vita and 3DS.
I don't think anybody is putting any effort into it, but I really think it could be possible.
The Vita absolutely has enough power for a proper port of Daggerfall. The original 3DS probably doesn't, but I think the New 3DS absolutely could. Especially since the New 3DS has native Unity support.
I could imagine the combination of Daggerfall Unity's overhauled controls with the original interface being touch controlled on the bottom screen as the best possible way to play the game on the go.
I would kill to play Daggerfall Unity at a good 24-30 FPS on 3DS.
I don't think anybody is ever going to take up a project like that though.
I want this playable on the Switch so bad.
bethesda released basically the entire TES catalogue on steam so it's not entirely out of the realm of possibilty.
@@queuedjar4578 it is
Getting niche into a niche... What a quality content!
woah! the editing is so cool!
cant belive you snuck in sojac near 5:00!
feelsbadman 🤣
I was talking about this with some other fans recently since I got a new vita after my last one broke, this is awesome, this is great.
Congratz on 20k btw! ❤️
Thank you!!
@@Jwlar better pick out a spot for that play button! It'll happen sooner than you think 😉
Wow, I'm really looking forward to yours TES: Arena analysis!
It's gonna be a good one :)
your dedication to this one game is amazing to watch. Thank you
Thats crazy, id like to see this revisited.
I’d love someone more knowledgeable to try and improve the fps. I tried all I could with the Retroarch Dosbox cores, but nothing helped.
Been looking forward to this since the reddit post :)
Unity projects can be ported to Android and iOS devices, not to mention all of the modern consoles (those require dev licenses of course)
I'm guessing the limitation isn't power but instead code optimization for the platform...
The fact that it dagger fall unity runs battery smooth on a steam deck is a dream come true
the ending was like a post credits scene in a movie
😂
I would love to see this as a port for the Vita given we have Fallout 1 and 2
Is there any way to get Daggerfall Unity on Mobile?
I successfully natively emulated Morrowind on my LogicTech G Cloud (Android device) with mods enabled.
I would really love to get my hands on Daggerfall Unity specifically. Or, i guess the dos version woukd be serviceable too. I guess.
love the thumbnail
Need a vita 'halt' speedrun. Fastest halt you can muster
dont know anything about the emulator you are using, but i saw that you tried running arena at 3000 cycles, which for that and daggerfall is incredibly low, cant you increase that like you can with dosbox? i remember running daggerfall at around 50,000 cycles and battlespire at 300,000
Yeah, unfortunetly, running anyting above 4000 cycles tanks the Vita. It seems that the emulator cannot use the Vita's CPU efficiently, which is a shame.
The VITA aims the best handheld , I own a switch and a steam deck , this thing is a true handheld , it fits in your pocket and it’s battery life is awesome
It’s so great. Emulation beast too.
Just not in this one case sadly.
And this, my friends, is what emulating an x86 3D game running in software mode on an ARM processor looks like! :D
My man loves daggerfall
Me trying to load it to a 2ds brought me here. still haven't been able to get it to work on the 2ds
I'd love to see you review some 'Wayward Realms' content when there's enough of it :)
For sure! The day it releases will be a good day
@@Jwlar There's a relatively significant info drop tomorrow I think.
This would have been my dream... before the steam deck arrived
It might be possible to build daggerfall unity for vita with the leaked unity vita stuff
somehow being told the Vita is a decade old hurt more than anything else
Someone should make a mobile/console port through a browser emulator
Someday. I keep dreaming for the impossible of Deus Ex on the best handheld ever.
My vita died a few days ago, now I'm sad I don't get to try this.
Rip
So, I suppose it's pointless to ask if daggerfall would run on a 3ds, right?
No chance, not through dosbox anyway.
Damn, thats the question ive asked my self literally two days ago. ;p
Is posible on psp?
Dude said “ free hundred ferty free”
Was going to try to play daggerfall on retroarch for xbox didnt work 😂
Who needs a face cam when you've got reflections😂
🤣
Look close enough in the reflections and you'll see that jwlar is still just bosmer_sprite_3.jpg
Epic 😁
Nice I can’t even get it to run on my steam deck still lol I’m so bad with computers and technology
It was tough, no way I would be able to do it without the help of the Discord
@@Jwlar oh forget about it I’d never be able to do this. My father is almost 68 and I call him for computer advise, than again he was in the computer business since the late 80s doing graphic design but working on soft ware also. Yeah I followed in his foot steps and went to art school with a degree in graphic arts I passed with a 3.8 and graduated but music was always my forte. Being in dyslexic I can’t read music and play by ear so I’m stuck in my own private hell loving pc gaming not being good at PCs having a degree in bad at and having a passion and talent for 10 instruments I play I can’t use. Sorry for the story lol just pissed I can’t get it to work on my deck!
wonder how it would run on a John Deere
Impressive! I wonder what the bottleneck is, though. I thought for sure the Vita would be more powerful in every way compared to the computers of Daggerfall's era, but maybe I'm wrong.
Definitely DosBox is the limiting factor. It isn’t using the full power of the Vita - I mean, it ran Borderlands 2 (at 20fps), so it can certainly run this.
@@Jwlar The vita can run borderlands way better once you hack it and raise the clockspeed.
Yes dosbox is designed to one thread application it can use one CPU core. Basically only use 1/4 of ps vita capabilities.
Absolute madlad 😂
COME ON WHY NOW??? This video comes 5 years later for me :\
I hope daggerfall unity can be played on android
im so cool i played arena on psp
Linkin Park lol 6:01
Honestly wish i knew how to hack my vita. Amazing vid man
I used this: czcams.com/video/312ooVtXAMM/video.html
It's pretty time conuming, and you have to buy that SD card thing, but it's worth it for me. I have all the PSP and Vita game I could want all on the one card.
@@Jwlar danke
Please make a guide to make it work on Android. I would legit play it.
You can try this: czcams.com/video/iQRJd3MRLcs/video.html
Good luck :)
Wouldnt DF be kinda insufferable to play without a keyboard? You need quite a few buttons to play the game properly right?
You can play with just the mouse (right analogue) and the WASD (left analogue) and then using X and O for left and right click and ▣ for spacebar. It works, but it isn't ideal.
Would've been somewhat playable with a higher FPS I think.
Should be easier on a Steam Deck
For sure! People have even got the Unity version running!
Ok NOW I want a vita 😂😂😂
Where arena analysis
Being editied. It's longer than expected, so it's taking longer than I thought, but is on it's way.
:3
You will love the outro with that username 😉
This isn't 8 hours long, what gives??
Nah I'm kidding
The long vids are coming back 😉 I just like to sprinkle some fun ones inbetween haha
@@Jwlar I'm just teasing! This video was very wonderful to watch!
@@TheStoodUpKid Thank you :)
Fake
I wish, wouldve saved me the time of doing it haha
