Guest Ulvain Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 -*BAD WORD*-o everyone, I'm not a programmer. I have no idea how to program or what making a client represents. But i aksed around, and I've heard that making a mac OS X client (os x being based on unix) wouldnt be that complicated in itself... Anyone got any idea if there's any chance whatsoever to magage to ever get it? I was actually thinking ss is the kind of fun, simple and free multiplayer online game, Apple might like to be able to include in the OS (like the chess game). Forgive me for being a dreamer... -Ulv
Yupa Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 it'd probably be easy for Priit to do it, but it's been years now and hasn't happened doubt Apple would pick up a game almost completely ripped from a game owned by someone else, too
Bargeld Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 It would basically be a 'nix client, which has been in the spotlight a couple of times, but has never been completed and released. Try using a Windows emulator... continuum shouldn't be too heavy on the CPU to work like this. Sysop - SSCX Alpha West SVS
ExplodyThingy Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 I thought that due to all the anti-debuging stuff and the directx stuff prevented adequate display on those systems. Last I heard, people couldnt get it to run at all on any other system aside from windows. ~ExplodyOnions3:MikeTheNose> I use my own insanity to communicate
Yupa Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 I think Dark Aqua once posted that someone she knew got Continuum to work on a Mac using some elaborate emulating... just par!@#$%^&*ion your HD and install Windows
Fluffy White Bunny Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 I've run cont. on a mac using an emulator...the game itself runs fine but the time sync is horrible which makes you lag like crazy and really piss off mods. I was using ConnectX with windows 98SE.
Guest Ulvain Posted October 24, 2003 Report Posted October 24, 2003 Hmmm... I'm using an iBook G3, and running virtual PC is already much for the poor thing... In itself, cont isn't too heavy, but with the emulation, yea, i'm pretty sure it'd lag or be very slow... It's frustrating ! grr...

madhaha Posted October 24, 2003 Report Posted October 24, 2003 I've heard people getting Continuum running on an Xbox. I think it works on VirtualPC but that costs money and you need a good Mac. Solution? Bye a cheap PC from a school! You can probably get a low end Pentinum 2 or something now for £10.

ExplodyThingy Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 Ive gotten much more than continuum running on an XBox. You are aware that the XBox is simply a stripped down PC, right? Allow me to enlighten you: http://xbox-linux.sourceforge.net/ ~ExplodyOnions3:MikeTheNose> I use my own insanity to communicate
Bargeld Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 There is a kit for the PS2 for linux, also. The basic purpose is for custom game design.http://www.us.playstation.com/peripherals....x?id=SCPH-97047 Sysop - SSCX Alpha West SVS
madhaha Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 2 minor corrections. I meant the ps2 (everyone knows the xbox is basically an out of date PC) and I meant buy not bye.
