00:15:02 | [57th]cneal|afk | mk |
00:21:14 | [57th]cneal | woohoo |
01:59:12 | [57th]cneal | hey bake |
01:59:21 | [57th]cneal | Hows the OS going? |
02:04:44 | cronotrg | yay |
02:05:14 | [57th]cneal | woohoo |
02:07:08 | [57th]cneal | vgh |
02:36:04 | cronotrg | zoltan? |
02:37:10 | cronotrg | hrm... I remember a zoltan from when Zophars Domain first started |
02:38:21 | [57th]cneal | Hows the flyer going cronotrg? |
02:38:44 | cronotrg | good... I guess. |
02:38:53 | cronotrg | it'll be updated real soon |
02:38:57 | [57th]cneal | Ok |
02:39:19 | cronotrg | there were a few grammatical errors that I fixed up and some other stuff. |
02:39:29 | [57th]cneal | So far I got 50 flyers sent out last week to my school, and one of them gave me a thumbs up on it |
02:39:35 | cronotrg | nice |
02:40:05 | [57th]cneal | oh |
02:40:09 | [57th]cneal | check this game out |
02:40:20 | cronotrg | I am getting paid this week on wednesday, so after I get that cashed, a few will be placed around town and other random stores |
02:41:31 | [57th]cneal | http://www.agdsoft.com/frameset.htm says that it will come out late 2002 when tuxbox will be out and it goes along with our stats + they are thinking about porting it to linux as well. Says it will be easy to port to different OS |
02:42:30 | cronotrg | now, most of the games wont be open source, unless ported from GPL or a similar licence? |
02:43:09 | [57th]cneal | The ones at sourceforge I think will be open source unless the project files are not hosted on the site |
02:43:35 | [57th]cneal | or I think they have to be |
02:44:14 | [57th]cneal | but I'm not quite sure, maybe if no one finds out then it dosent have to be open source? |
02:45:01 | cronotrg | sounds good, cause a friend of mine, http://www.dcvision.com/crt0 , is thinking, after the tuxbox is fully released to get Wolfenstien 3D and/or Doom to the tuxbox, as it wont be hard/done otherwise, he doesn't want it to be opensource, so that's good |
02:45:02 | [57th]cneal | I'm just worried about OS being open source because thats where all the power comes from, so a game is not open source, that does not change anything, just find one that is and play/ edit around with that :) |
02:46:06 | cronotrg | yea.. try to refrain from that |
02:46:34 | cronotrg | that game looks really nice. |
02:47:00 | cronotrg | * http://www.agdsoft.com/frameset.htm |
02:47:21 | cronotrg | well... im gonna rush for a minute, be back in a half hour or so. |
02:47:44 | [57th]cneal | heh, now I feel like playing wolfenstien :) |
02:48:22 | [57th]cneal | Does he have the sourcecode to wolfenstien? |
03:22:52 | cronotrg|away | yea\ |
03:22:53 | cronotrg|away | bah |
03:23:11 | cronotrg|away | yea.. its opensource, or the loading executable of wolfenstien |
03:24:02 | cronotrg|away | the files, wl1 or wl6, based on if its shareware or regestered, arent open though, but you wouldn't need those files to port the game to another system |
03:24:25 | cronotrg|away | you would need the files, but not the source of the files. |
03:28:12 | [57th]cneal | There are some requirments at http://www.tuxboxproject.com/software_specs.php that he might check out |
03:29:23 | [57th]cneal | just how save paths should be done etc |
03:30:04 | cronotrg|away | hes already checked it out, and since he has already rewritten the source from win32 to sh-4 arm, its just a few more switches to get it to the tuxbox, but he will add another spash screen and modify the menu and it will be tuxbox exclusive, sorta |
03:30:31 | [57th]cneal | cool :) |
03:31:01 | [57th]cneal | Can he add a split 4player screen? |
03:31:11 | cronotrg|away | ... not really, |
03:31:17 | [57th]cneal | oh ok |
03:31:18 | cronotrg|away | not for wolfenstien |
03:31:27 | cronotrg|away | cause it never has been multiplayer |
03:31:35 | cronotrg|away | but doom might work. |
03:31:41 | cronotrg|away | *might* |
03:31:50 | cronotrg|away | _might_ |
03:31:58 | cronotrg|away | "might" |
03:32:01 | cronotrg|away | .. |
03:32:03 | cronotrg|away | heh |
03:32:53 | [57th]cneal | oh |
03:33:31 | [57th]cneal | I never had internet anyway those days no phone line, no nothing |
03:34:37 | [57th]cneal | Will the game have different levels or will it be the original? |
03:35:10 | [57th]cneal | nm, cant edit wolfenstien levels :P |
03:35:17 | cronotrg | it would be more net based, since doom legacy, for online multiplayer, is open(source) and he was thinking of porting over a version of that, but it would have to be gpl 2.0. but he doesn't know, he was just pulling from his head as quick as he could type when I asked him about it. probably the original, but it is real easy to modify the games. |
03:35:19 | cronotrg | no |
03:35:30 | cronotrg | wolfenstien is real easy to modify |
03:36:02 | cronotrg | erm lemme try to find this.. |
03:36:36 | [57th]cneal | I think there is a quake project |
03:36:43 | [57th]cneal | hold on |
03:39:44 | cronotrg | projekt:vertilung : a modified wolfenstien 3D game using entirely tools outside of the source: http://www.geocities.com/grindmachine2000/ |
03:40:13 | cronotrg | *vertilgung |
03:40:44 | cronotrg | http://www.geocities.com/pgwolfenstein/ another |
03:40:51 | [57th]cneal | I see quake2 sourcecode that is looking to have someone do something with it on the tuxbox sourceforge site |
03:41:54 | cronotrg | yea I saw about that. its kind of neat, although a doubt we will go anywhere with only 1st person shooters. |
03:42:45 | cronotrg | I mean, its great to have ports of games, but we need games that are really eye catching, not FPS' and ONLY on the TuxBox |
03:43:53 | [57th]cneal | That looks near |
03:43:53 | [57th]cneal | neat |
04:06:03 | [57th]cneal | Is there only one level? |
04:09:43 | cronotrg | I think so for projekt vertilgung, since they probably only release the shareware version, so save their butt from idSoftware. |
04:10:17 | [57th]cneal | oh |
04:11:04 | cronotrg | you can find the original shareware nearly anywhere anymore, and if you search hard enough, you can get the original registered version, im not gonna stop you from pirating 11 year old software, but it is _illegal_ |
04:12:45 | [57th]cneal | Hear about the new wolfenstien? |
04:12:51 | cronotrg | yea RTCW |
04:12:59 | cronotrg | got it laying next to me, |
04:13:18 | [57th]cneal | Totaly different game from the original |
04:13:33 | [57th]cneal | Pretty neat too |
04:14:28 | cronotrg | yea. I can rememebr playing Wolf3D on my old 286. good lord that thing ran like a charm. it took a truck to make that thing freeze and stop.. |
04:15:01 | cronotrg | now on windows or some crappy os, I can get explorer to fubar in 3 seconds |
04:15:07 | cronotrg | heh |
04:15:28 | [57th]cneal | They got a non interactive version of space craze 3D for the tuxbox |
04:15:40 | cronotrg | ^_^ |
04:16:30 | [57th]cneal | Only thing it has right now is the ship models |
04:17:10 | [57th]cneal | but it would be cool when they get them to fly |
04:17:29 | cronotrg | 8^] |
04:17:49 | cronotrg | that's real cool. |
04:18:48 | [57th]cneal | I'm hoping when nTrap gets developed that they might make a version for tuxbox |
04:20:16 | cronotrg | yea... |
04:20:20 | [57th]cneal | When we get more people we should all go and write the company and say hey, look over here, our system runs on the same stats that your game runs maybe you could make us a version :) |
04:20:41 | cronotrg | those games screens look real nice |
04:20:50 | [57th]cneal | That would be cool, be just like the halo for xbox |
04:22:25 | cronotrg | since I live in SLC, I should look up all the game and software developers here, since there are a few of em, and see if they would be interested in doing it... since it is all free to develop for it, a quick port and it will be huge for us |
04:23:41 | cronotrg | my boss at a chocolate store that I work at for the holladays used to work for acclaim, I should see what his friends can do |
04:25:20 | cronotrg | even if they don't want to do anything for it, it will be nice to get the word in the commercial side of video games R&D |
04:31:16 | [57th]cneal | alexsatti and blackspark are the ones working on the spacecraze 3d |
05:25:38 | Snake | heyo all |
19:30:21 | LooRiS | handheld rulez! |
20:44:37 | [57th]cneal | vgh |
