New Games possible?

@all


For now game start to works somehow (thanks to Fab who help me to fix some stuff), but at moment there is still some problems:

1. right after you start a mission, you have "mission failed". (i was lucky to catch the start moment, and make screenshots)

2. It crashes heavy on start on SDL_SetCursor function, so, i comment it out for now.

I think "mission failed" can be because of some endian issues ..

@all

With help from Fab all the problems fixed, and there is video in action

Its version 2.0.8rc1 (2-3 years old). I choice it because that version was ported to morphos, so i assume that better start with that one. Will do some more tests today/tomorrow and if all will be ok will upload archive tomorrow. Will try to build more newer versions later.

@kas1e

Off course, i never intended to working on it alone, you know i'm learning atm and maybe this is not the ideal project from a beginner, aniway thanks for the port and for your explain

@kas1e

Nice work as always Kas1e, like the other great ports you are bringing out I look forward to including them on AmigaOS.net.

You are choosing great games to port which highlight what AmigaOS is capable of now in 2010 and fit in perfectly with the ethos behind AmigaOS.net.

I commend you on your efforts, you, me and everyone else will be looking forward to native Gallium/Mesa 3D support in AmigaOS and I trust and hope this will spear you on so that when that day arrives you can revisit some of the older games that you wanted to port, but could not due to sdk, graphic and whatever other limitations AmigaOS currently possesses.

Good job kas1e!

not a game, but a ahx/thx tracker clone that seems kind of nice:

http://kometbomb.net/2010/11/29/klystrack-1-5-is-approaching/

it's written using SDL so a port should be fairly straight forward.
it's more advanced that AHX, it could be fun to tinker with.
a tunenet plugin for music playback would be cool too.

@spotUP

Screenshots looks absolutly un-modern :) Like just zx-spectrum graphic. With those ugly rare-font looks :( Or maybe there possible to set aliasing/scaling to make looks of programm modern and not retro-related ?

Nods at @kas1e.

Psst. replied to your post on AmigaOS.net news item.

@afxgroup

Looks nice , sadly that only video and not actual speed of how menu / game works :) But i check the other vids on youtube of BG2 , and game are nice ! Emulator have some problems for now ? Or its all already playable and so on ?

@kas1e

it seems full playable.. except few things i must check

@afxgroup

:-O

It is really an emulator ?

@afxgroup

Time for release ! :) What about Icewind Dale 2 and Planescape: Torment ? They also looks pretty nice.

@kas1e

I'll release it soon. i must fix two small problems

@afxgroup

thanks for this great game and your effort

@afxgroup
Cool

this is not a game but an emulator that allows to play a lot of other games like baldur's gate & co

@afxgroup

Btw, it use opengl or not ? How fast it works anyway ?

@kas1e

it seems really fast on my A1 and is not using the opengl but the plain SDL

@afxgroup

Looks fascinating, worth me checking out. :) Feel free to post a few games that work through this 'emulator'. I assume its like a ScummVM, but for a different breed of games.

@afx

the colors of the site page remind me the guru of the amiga.. in particular way the top index..

how does it run on sam?
