Hi there,
I just wanna ask if anyone is going (or already working) on a MorphOS port!?
If you don´t know what warsow is: www.warsow.net

It´s a standalone Egoshooter based on Qfusion engine (modified QuakeII engine)! It´s a great game that is played at e-sports scene! The Linux port of it is using SDL (I think).
It´s too bad that I´m a total noop at programming!

This game could make the MorphOS Platform a little bit mor attractive for gamers and others, too!
I think if it were ported it would run well (if you don´t use the bloom effect), because it´s based on QuakeII engine and QuakeII works on MorphOS!

Are here programmers who can try to port it?

The only thing I can do is changing some textures (everyone can do that ) and other stuff like that!

Greetz,
Tobibrocki

Note: I have no Pegasos and MorphOS (I´m waiting for my one, hope it will come soon) this time!
Only damn shitty Windows!
A reason for this thread: I don´t like Windows, but I wanna play my alltime favourite game! I think I´m not the only person here who would like to see a port, or am I!?

Welcome to the community. Where or who did you order your peg from?

Thanks, I ordered my one on Vesalia.de ! They say that it will come in july, I hope they´re right! It´s really bad to wait!!!

I´m sorry if my english is not so good, I´m from Germany!

I just got done playing with the MacOs X version of this game, its very good. I hope we can get it over to MorphOS.

Also, welcome to the site. I hope you get your Pegasos soon. You will love it. Your English is fine, and we also have plenty of other Germans here.

Thanks, to you, too! Are there people with the ability to port it? Or are there some who work on a port this time?

How did you get the MacOSX port, it´s not out this time, istn´t it!?

Greetz,
Tobibrocki

I just did a google search for it and found a link.

Doubt it.

Quote:

Well, it at least seems to have a lot of Quakeworld's physics and movement.

Quote:

Eek, Quake 2... Guess it's quite ugly, then (the code).

Quote:

Have you ever tried Quakeworld? :)

Quote:

I know what is implied by this sentence, but may I once again remind people that the part that SDL covers (and doesn't cover too well) is the smallest part of porting such a thing. If you're wasting time actually porting a game, you might as well invest those few hours more and get it done right.

Quote:

How about Quakeworld? :)

Quote:

OK, that's the strangest logic I've seen on here in a little while :)

Have you ever seen Dark Places Quake? It's based on Quake 1, and Quake 1 runs on MorphOS... Yet Dark Places doesn't exactly boast a high FPS count on MorphOS :)

Quote:

Dunno.

Quote:

Play Quakeworld? :)

Bigfoooooooot, you make my gaming heart sing!!!!! This is so pretty cool!!!!!
How much percent of the port are done, and how much time did you need to for a first downloadable alpha version?
Thanks,Thanks,Thanks,..... for that!!!!!!

Greetz,
Tobibrocki :))

PS:: What did you do to get it working!?

That's entirely dependant on the pizza supply.

Created the needed MorphOS-specific code, then fixed the nasty bugs in the game.

great stuff bigfoot! I hope you can bring it very soon

[ Edited by analogkid on 2006/7/9 18:25 ]

Bigfoot: Are you planning to release it at all?

acill

bigfoot would not post the screenshot if he didnt intend to release it..

Quote:

No, I'm gonna do like with Quake 3 and never release it! Murhahahaha!

@bigfoot:

>Have you ever seen Dark Places Quake? It's based on Quake 1, and Quake 1 runs on MorphOS... Yet Dark Places doesn't exactly boast a high FPS count on MorphOS :)

Well, I would really like to see Dark Places released... but... last time I asked you where to deliver the pizza you said that you would be not in Denmark for a while...

How many FPS do you get with Dark Places on the starting scene of that game with all eyecandy enabled on a Peg2 g4/1000 with MOS with a r200 based gfx card? More or less than 15 FPS?

[ Edited by Schlonz on 2006/7/9 23:16 ]

Just look how easy is to get new ports / stuff for MOS!
Tobibrocki asks for a port of a game in 2006/6/29 and about three days after that bigfoot presents the first results of his work!
Isn't great?

Why MOS Team isn't so fast?


[ Edited by r-tea on 2006/7/9 23:28 ]

bigfoot is part of the morphos team and you delayed 1.5 by three days :-)

The Speed you are working in is great bigfoot!
I hope you will release a playable version soon! At this time, please, give us more screenies showing you progress and tell us the current state of the port!
You´re doing a fantastic work, keep it up!!!!! :)))

If you do a release, could you make two versions please! One complete package (contains the game and all changed files), and a smaller package(contains only the changed/ported files), because I have a really bad connection here (56k), so, it would much easyer for me to replace the files than downloading the whole game again, that was pure stress, even with this connection(the Download breaks 3 times)!
But if you do a complete package, it´s ok, too!

Greetz,
Tobibrocki

Keep up the good GOOD (very good)work!!!!! :))

Hi,
I made a thread on the official war§ow website:
Warsow thread!

I hope it´s ok, that I made this thread!

Well, probably won't be long now.

Quote:

Currently? Probably around 2FPS. VNC is fun :)

But OK, tried launching DP on my laptop, a 1.6GHz Core Duo with Radeon X1400. Ran it in 640x400, with just Q1 data files, started a new game, enabled realtime world lightning and I got about 4 FPS... I guess that should give you an idea :)

Quote:

Lack of pizza is the main problem, I believe.

Quote:

The current state is that I'm out of pizza and nothing has been done :)

Quote:

I can't distribute data files without the agreement of the copyright holder(s), which I at the current time don't have. Judging by the interest in the bugfixes I've posted to them, don't hold your breath.

Ehe, I see you took the 62.234215% a bit too seriously :D

@ Henes
bigfoot is part of the morphos team and you delayed 1.5 by three days

Oh... does June not counts 31 days? But, does it a matter? The matter is that bigfoot is faaast

bigfoot is part of the morphos team

I meant the whole team as is. If they all would be as fast as bigfoot...
They're fixing ft2.library (broken italic and underline) IIRC since over three years...

Maybe if they would eat less of pizza and drink more juices instead of it ...

Quote:

We're doing no such thing .. no clue what gave you the idea that this was something to be fixed either. :P
