Title: Descent (d2x) On Zaurus Possible?
Post by: xamindar on February 04, 2006, 04:33:55 pm

I was thinking that Descent would make a fun game for the c series zaurus sense we are able to attach mice and joysticks.  Has anyone attempted to compile it?  It is now open source in the form of d1x (descent1) (http://d1x.warpcore.org/) and d2x (descent2) (http://icculus.org/d2x/).  D2x now also supports the descent1 data files so it would be a better port I think.


Someone compiled d2x (http://icculus.org/d2x/)  for pocketPC (http://offload1.icculus.org/d2x/images/d2x-pocketpc-demo1.jpg) a while back so it doesn't seem that impossible.

Any takers?  When I get some time I want to set up a cross compiler and might try myself.

Sounds cool. D2 was a fun game. It would be a bit of a show piece
for Z users. Hope someone can get it working.

I tried recently compile d2x for pdaxrom and compiled OK runs ok till actual game starts, then I got segmetation fault. It needs some more skilled developer than me
:-)

I tried d2x out last week and I had exactly the same problem as merli. It compiles OK, it shows the menus and finds the descent maps/data files but crashes when the game should start.

d2x runs on the GP2X so it must be possible to get running on the Z- I'd love to play Descent under pdaXii13!

I think to use right flags for alignment of structures will help.... align on 32 bit etc ...
