@All

So what games are open source and what games could be ported the amigaos 4 ?

@Phantom

lol....now THAT would be awesome

@Phantom

I just think it would be really cool to play this on my miggy

Hi all do you think it would be possible to play this game on the sam or would it be to hard to port and would it be to slow ? all thoughts and subbestions welcome

@freddix

Yeah ive ran the demos but how do i actually run the AmiDARK program so i can start making my own games?
Do i go through the SDK to access it ?

@freddix

I thought i would need something esle as i can not see anything in theAmiDARK folder that lets me run the program. will download the SDK from there site and give it a go.

Do i need some kind of SDK to go with the AmiDARK?

@Shadow

yes i am a complete beginner ive had no experience what so ever but would really like to get into it and give something back to the amiga community. so really need to start from scratch

@carvedeye

WOW......so many to choose from, AmiDARK Engine looks pretty cool will give the Alpha Version a go hope it is not to complex for a noob like me

Hi all does any one have any info/recommendations on software coding for beginners as i am wanting to get into coding games on my SAM440EP.

TIA

@ChrisH

chris many thanks you have been a big help and it is very much appreciated will give those suggestions a try and report back soon

@ChrisH

the only resolution that works is 640X480 ohter games sort of work for eg..

wipeout 2097 (but shadows are squared and then crashes to workbench)

heretic 2 (plays very slow and has chunky graphics)

payback demo (plays very slow cant configure joypad)

@all

Should i just get a pci card or can my gfx problem be fixed?

@ChrisH

@ChrisH

Yeah im using the onboard gfx, where would i be able to buy a readon 9250 that is compatible with the sam440ep board?

@all
