    Descent II for MorphOS

    There is Descent II port for MorphOS available: DescentII.lha (about 6.5MB)

    It defaults to 1024x768 fullscreen and it seems some systems may have problem with that. If you get black screen in the game press F2 and select smaller screen or remove -fullscreen option from the startup script.

    Screenshot

    Edit: It seems old PowerSDL doesnt work very well with Descent II port. I have made PowerSDL 11.4 update available. Archives are available here.


    APool-GL for MorphOS

    There is APool GL port for MorphOS available: APool-GL.lha (2.2MB)

    It is bit slow but playable.

    The pool game is very slow on my machine. Strange that
    something like Shogo or Quake 2 can run reasonably quick
    but a simple game of pool brings the system to a halt. ;)

    I guess it's because of all the dynamic shadows it calculates.

    try http://axon.umcs.lublin.pl/~zukowski/foobillard.lha

    this is old version from sdl.innoidea.hu but it works pretty fast and has better gfx imo than ApoolGL

    i've heard that new version will be available in two weeks (or one week) :)

    @realstar

    APool GL probably needs G5 to run properly ;-)
