    From this day on, the usage of words "port" or "ported" is prohibited from you :-)

    Asked that in Aachen (allmost 2 years ago), answer was something like "we found it to Windows-dependant, has been put on back-burner".

    So "canceled" seems the right word atm.

    The problem for Epic is to find a experienced coder who is able to do the MorphOS Version. Earth2150 has some really trouble making code parts. Especially its own script language for Level creation and AI purpose combined with an ingame compiler. Not to mention the DirectX and DirectPlay parts. So if there is a coder who thinks that he is able to fullfil this job just contact Epic.

    But MorphOS actually don't has OpenGL, and using the Warp3D wrapper is crap, no? :-P

    MorphOS needs latest OpenGL and good hardware support from ATI (ATI is more "cool computing" than nvidia and actually are doing the things better related to hardware...).

    Hum, Windows DirectX is not a real problem. A MacOS version exist, so this mean bring this game to other platform is NOT impossible.

    Some day ago someone explain me becose this game don't exit for MOS: Epic want put in market but the developer don't want make it for MOS (or don't want put this version on market).
    So, simply, we can't have this game becouse no-one want and can sell it.

    And if they has the source code of the windows version and can do it but the mac version is ported by others and they has the rights on these version or something? :-P

    Let's see what occour...

    I think that doing reverse engineering on Earth 2150 is very difficult, reading all those complex things...
