Hi, i just registered because i have a problem running dynamite on MorphOS.

First time i tried it asked for identify.library v13 so i downloaded the 68k version v37 (is there a native MOS version?) and put it into my sys:libs folder. Now when i try to start dynamite i get an error like "Unable to create MUI application". SnoopDOS tells me that dynamite can't find libs.catalog (fails)?!?

I'm using Morphos 3.5.1 on a Powermac MDD, 1,25 GByte of RAM and a Radeon 9000 with 64MByte VRAM.

I'm fairly new to MorphOS and haven't been in contact with something Amiga-like since 2002. I hope someone can help me out with that.

Just FYI, there's now a similar game with support for online matches for MorphOS and other operating systems:

http://www.goldencode.de
http://www.goldencode.eu

(requires the data from the commercial game release)

I'm guessing, but you may be missing a MUI .mcc somewhere.

Confirm you have:

BetterBalance.mcc
BetterString.mcc
BetterString.mcp
Busy.mcc
Busy.mcp
HotkeyString.mcc
Lamp.mcc
Lamp.mcp
NBalance.mcc
NBitmap.mcc
NFloattest.mcc
NList.mcc
NListtree.mcc
NListtree.mcp
NListview.mcc
NListviews.mcp

You'll also need guigfx.library and render.library. I don't know if these are still packaged with MOS (they were needed by MysticView), so if you don't have them get them from aminet.

On my UAE image of Workbench, guigfx.library 20.0 (26.04.2003) and render.library 30.0 (24 May 99) were needed to get ANR and DynAMIte to run, but as I say MorphOS may still come with better versions packaged.

Dynamite works still on MorphOS. And when checking the MUI classes, check first if you have them already in SYS:MorphOS/Classes/MUI/ and only install if you don't have them there. And of course the 3rd party classes go into SYS:Classes/MUI then, not there with the provided system files. guigfx and render libraries are provided by default too, so no need to check them.

Dynamite is commercial or i can upload on MorphOS-Storage ?

Oh yes, dynamite is great!
I love this game.
Is there any Linux Server?
I can host a server for online Gaming then.

BTW It runs perfectly here.

DynAMIte was written in AmigaE, so there's not much chance of porting the server to other platforms even without a GUI.

Perhaps a guiless version of the server could be ported to windows with PortablE?
Dynamite is a nice game.

Answered for the sake of anyone else having problems with DynAMIte on MorphOS, as I missed the original thread. Hopefully google will lead them here.

Andreas really needs to cut out the thread necromancy though and get a hobby.

It was FYI with the 'Y' meaning the plural pronoun, i.e. for everybody interested in online/networking games similar to dynAMIte, especially if they cannot get it to work for whatever reason.

It would be missing some sort of punchline then :-)

This doesn't matter much, I think, because I couldn't help him with his dynAMIte issue anyway, and the online/networking feature was added to Atomic Bomberman just recently.

Your helpful answer wouldn't be in this thread if it wasn't for my thread necromancy, would it? :-) Anybody who was led here before by Google in search for help left none the wiser.

Work here but joystick don't work and impossible to have the game in fullscreen or change windows size...

Any idea ? Thanks
