know you well, I don't know how to take you comment. Can I ask why you
moved to C? Was it the lack ot jobs in the TP / Object Pascal market or
some other reason?
I am a huge Delphi fan and also have Kylix for Linux and that is why
I have a site dedicated to creating games with Delphi/Kylix @
http://www.DelphiGamer.com The site also contains up to date news of
happenings in the Delphi Game programming community , a database of
Delphi written games ( Though I'm sure there are probably more TP ones
out there ) and lots of other stuff. Hence the reason for trying to
revive the original TP source code and maybe port it to Linux and make
the source and game available on Linux.
I have managed to compile your 3.1 souce code successfully but have run
into a couple of runtime issues when it creates the Main window.
This is probably due to the fact that Delphi has sheltered me from such
low level issues. But I'm sure I'll get it working.
also ran on OS/2?
I also plan to start a another game project based on LT and submitting
it for the Indie Games festival ( http://www.indiegames.com ) and the
game will run under both Windows and Linux and if Borland bring out a
MacOS compiler it will run on there as well.
If you would like to know more about the new game and re-use your TP
skills let me know.
Sincerely,
Dominique.
