Please stop copying Starfighter.

It's a pity that you have to deal with this. I hope that you can get these people shutdown. One way to help that is to advertise the free download as much as possible.

Most people on the other sites probably visit this one too occasionally. It's already been posted as a news item at amigans.net (with a link to your thread here). There's also amigaworld.net which is more geared toward Amiga OS 4.0, but there'll still be people interested in starfighter.

You could also try morphzone.org. It's about Morphos, not Amiga OS, but it's an Amiga OS 3.x compatible OS, so they're also Amiga enthusiasts. Finally, there's aros-exec.org for AROS, which is also based on the Amiga OS API (but not binary compatible).

I can't think of any other places.

I think that you'll still find a larger number of Amiga OS 4.0 users at aw.net than here; a lot more talk about OS4 (well, more about the darn court case at the moment), and less about classic stuff. Anyway, there's also amigaweb.net, which I think is supposed to be a news site for any Amiga or Amiga-like system.

Thanks for the interest everyone.  I'm not trying to make a fuss - just go out and enjoy the game.  I hope to have a new version of Starfighter for people to play soon.  I expect a tech demo ready by December.  Though it will be PC I want to port it back to the Amiga later.

Are you using OpenGL or DirectX in the graphics engine for the new version? Using OpenGL should make porting it to Amiga OS 4.0, Morphos and Aros much easier. Classic Amigas would be much harder due to lack of 3D graphics hardware.

Aren't Piru's instructions for the windows version of lha?

BTW, any progress with getting the (unfinished) Amiga OS 4.0 port of Torque?
