lol. Well the demo you downloaded is probably the least-playable. Did you try the one at http://arrakis.dune2k.com ? (version 0.92). Its a lot more playable, but has no intro.

Also, the version (demo) you saw (with intro) is even not the one i am talking about. I am completely rewriting it and its looking very nice so far. And its very nostalgic. No new stuff, just nicer gfx, here and there a bit more fancy gfx and sound (MT32 sound blaster recorded music as MP3) etc. I just want to relive the dune2 experience, but then in a more modern/nicer looking way

Heh yeah I just tried that 'BENE VERSION' thing...

With 0.92 the mouse doesn't work

/me reads ini file...
/me remembers the old days when modding C&C Series

[stefanhendriks]

yeah, i love those days

ini files are cool. It also makes 'balancing the game' a lot easier

edit:
perhaps mous edoes not work because you use WINE?

eventually i hope to compile it for Linux and Mac as well

Yeah I guess its wine...though its pretty weird
What are you using for graphics/input/sound? DirectX? Or dos interrupts?
If you use something like OpenGL for graphics porting shouldn't be too hard.

i use a library: Allegro. Which supports Windows, Dos, Mac, Linux, etc.

I don't know if it will compile straight away on a linux machine, but if someone wants to help me with it when the time is there, i'd be glad

Ow also beta-testers are needed.

Ah cool
Well just gimme the src and I see what I can do

[stefanhendriks]

when the time is there to convert it to other os's iw ill surely keep that in mind. For now, just look at http://www.allegro.cc

VLC is a free cross-platform media player.

It supports a large number of multimedia formats, without the need for additional codecs
It is available for almost every OS
It needs little CPU power

VLC can also be used as a streaming server

VLC can use a large number of input devices
It features extended streaming features (video on demand, on the fly transcoding, ...)

Note: If you want to try this (especially if you are using Windows), download it quickly as if a (stupid) proposed law (which may put a ban on free software) get passed in France this project will likely to be dead.
