NotEye

[koctyxa]

I've got the GOG version of ADOM 3.3.3 on Linux. I'd like to play in the good old ASCII mode. I tried the Expert settings "plain ASCII only" graphical mode, "old software renderer" (non-openGL), "economy mode" and "limit CPU to 5%".

Is there a better way to tune the game to be more battery-friendly and have the ASCII mode feel and look? ADOMSage was the desired way of making an ASCII overlay output over ASCII input.

I tried executing ./start.sh -N --ascii, but that crashes NotEye.

I can see https://www.adom.de/forums/showthrea...-ASCII-version, but that thread doesn't answer the question whether it's possible to tune the NotEye properly.

The best I could get with NotEye is editing my config file $HOME/.adom.data/config-adom.noe and have following inside:

picknumber("maxcpu",1)
picknumber("maxframe",4)
consoleout_curses()

With that I've got constant ~4% CPU usage which is still high but better than previous thing.

pickbool("economymode",true)

does bad things.
