I made an actual thread for this, since we are still yacking about it. To bring the others up to speed:

"Some of us weirdos have been kicking around the thought of making a community edition of Enemy Territory (the FIRST one). I suggested the Cube 2 engine might be a good base...

This would be a straight port of ETPro gameplay to a standalone open source game, using new 'HD' assets. Nothing too fancy, just better graphics and netcode are what we would be looking for."

#253: ..

on the OS X thing, just having a universal binary will solve everything (intel and powerpc, as well as 32bit or 64bit, for leopard anyway, i suppose if you have 64 bit tiger your kinda screwed...)

#254: Re: Mac

I'm not sure you are understanding the problem. We are talking about the VM bytecode, not the executable.

But luckily the Lua VM source code is very clean and easy to understand, so customizations are a piece of cake. A couple of #ifdefs and it should work fine.

#255: progress update

by ezombie on 02/19/2008 23:37

Weeee!

We got OpenGL working from the VM now. Here is the beginnings of our radar:

function client:drawradar(x, y, radius, alpha)
gl.Color({1, 1, 1, alpha})
sauer.settexture("data/radar.png", false)
gl.Begin('QUADS')
gl.TexCoord({0, 0}); gl.Vertex({x - radius, y - radius})
gl.TexCoord({1, 0}); gl.Vertex({x + radius, y - radius})
gl.TexCoord({1, 1}); gl.Vertex({x + radius, y + radius})
gl.TexCoord({0, 1}); gl.Vertex({x - radius, y + radius})
gl.End()
end

Still hammering away at porting the reference fpsgame classes over to Lua - one method at a time. This last inclusion should make things go a bit faster. Once enough is in the VM, our script guys can take over much of the logic coding and I can focus on internals again (like adding triggers).

#256: Further Progress?

by Brianv on 04/02/2008 21:13

Is there any further progress on this? I\'ve checked out both this thread as well as the website and SF page, and things seem to be dead since late February.

Hope this is still rolling, sounds like a great idea!

That's less than two months of inactivity, so I would not worry about this project being dead. Not intended as sarcasm, I know how projects of this kind often seem to be developed in bursts of activity interleaved with more "calm" periods.

But yes, I also hope it keeps going.
