In Response To: Re: Volunteers Expanded: By Committee (treellama)

: May as well give a status report: Aleph One SVN can read Marathon maps, and
: lets me run around in them. It doesn't understand glue/glue
: trigger/superglue. It doesn't know what devices map to which textures, and
: it gets all the scenery wrong. Monsters, weapons, and ammo are placed
: correctly, and the lighting is correctly inferred from the polygon
: floor/ceiling (Loren figured this out a long time ago).

: It can read Marathon's shapes file, and renders the scene--textures and
: sprites--from that. I don't intend to bother with the HUD shapes, just use
: Hopper's plugin.

: It can read the Marathon physics file, and lets me fire my AR. Projectiles
: work, the alien AI appears to work. Dual magnums and fusion are broken.
: The physics will be an approximation at best--using M2's physics code with
: Marathon's settings.

: I haven't touched the sounds files or terminals yet.

: Progress is slow. Real life is extremely time consuming. But, it's forward
: progress.

Yup real life really gets in the way. Thanks for the update.

Cheers
Hamish
