more games converted for mini linux laptop?
« on: February 15, 2009, 12:37:29 PM »
hi all,
okay doom is converted for the mini linux laptop but if doom can be converted for this laptop than games such ass duke nukem 3d or blood can be converted to? Maybe a handy linux user can do this? i actually dont understand a lot of linux (i use only windows pc's ) i only got an mini linux laptop running 3mx . But maybe somebody can do this ? Doom is originally just a dos game and duke nukem 3d also , so maybe its possible . Can somebody tell me if this is possible?  8) Thanks!

in answer to the original question ......................
as far as i am aware playing 3d games requires a 3d graphics card usually installed on a regular pc
i would certainly be surprised if games of this type was possible on a normal laptop let alone one of these machines
my advice is to buy yourself a games console if you really want to play these games

Duke3d will never be ported.

The reason why Doom was able to make it on the laptop is because id software released the source code.  (They did the same with Quake and Quake 2)

So if you're looking for games that will play on this, look for emulated games, flash games, or open source games.

Some compilable candidates are

Descent 2: http://icculus.org/d2x/

Liero: http://openlierox.sourceforge.net/

frozen bubble: http://www.frozen-bubble.org/

LinCity (SimCity clone): http://lincity-ng.berlios.de/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

There are also quite a few crazy game data updates and changes for Doom: http://www.doomwadstation.com/main/tc.html

Are you sure about that ? I downloaded the source and there's no indication that it can be run on anything but an x86 processor.  ???
