Did I get your attention?
 There are opensource movements to get a WarCraft II clone. (I wasn't sure which forum to put this in)
This thread is for discussing that. It is a break-off from the http://www.zaurususergroup.com/index.php?n...er=asc&start=15 thread. Here's the last comment I made in that thread. Anyone want to try recompiling FreeCraft (now known as Stratagus) for the Zaurus? http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/tmp/wargus/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/stratagus/ http://www.happypenguin.org/show?FreeCraft http://www.bebits.com/app/2994 http://packages.debian.org/unstable/games/freecraft <-- Already compiled for ARM? http://stratagus.sourceforge.net/screenshots.shtml etc.. Also: http://sourceforge.net/search/ (search for "stratagus") This is the open-source version of "War Craft II". Anyone else drooling over the idea of having War Craft II (rated the best computer games for a number of years) on their Zaurus? |

OK, I don't know if it's ever going to be playable in 240x320 (but thanks, lucho, for at least letting me try!), but I can scroll around the map, select units (but can't see the actions menu to make them do anything!)...at this point, the screen is the biggest handicap, closely followed by memory:
QUOTE # free
total used free shared buffers Mem: 29876 29024 852 0 152 Swap: 32764 25640 7124 Total: 62640 54664 7976 lucho, if you happen to compile another binary, a 480 x 640 mode for the SL-6000 folks who might want to play in portrait mode would be the only added touch I can suggest...
