Saga 1.7 for AROS
« on: August 08, 2011, 02:41:30 PM »
Hello all,

Saga 1.53 was ported to AROS ages ago and I only found out a few days ago. That version is bug-ridden.
  The current version is V1.7 which I have just released. I merged the AROS changes into the mainline source code.
  So this version is ready for an AROS port, it should just be a matter of typing "make" (AROS makefile is even included). If someone could do this and eg. send the resulting executable to me for release on Aminet, I'd be very grateful.
  It is at http://amigan.1emu.net/releases/Saga.lha and the email address is amigansoftware@gmail.com

Regards

James Jacobs

There aren't many AROS developers here.  I suggest you post here instead:  http://aros-exec.org/

That site is crawling with AROS devs working on quite a few projects.

Revised source is attached but still might not work.
  If you could tell me what errors you are getting I can fix it...

No, it seems the AROS community is happy using obsolete versions of software :-(

No, I'm not happy. I haven't looked at it because someone else already is trying to port it and I'm busy with Scalos.

OK, I'll give it a try this weekend.

Game will soon appear on Aminet and aros-exec.

Reason for most errors was that the deprecated types SHORT und USHORT aren't available in the AROS SDK. Solved by "typedef..." in one of Saga's headers.

Saga 1.7 has now been kindly ported to AROS by Matthias Rustler and has now hit Aminet. Many thanks!
