The current situation with all sorts of patches and "standalone" code dumps seems to be getting untenable. With that in mind, I've started a Google Code project for this and will soon be working on importing the Mac and Windows codebases.

That was something we were hoping to avoid doing, really. I guess it's your prerogative, given the terms of the license, but consulting the community first would have been nice. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I'll close it if people want. I just figured that folks would appreciate having a reliable hosting service for the project. Going back through the past, it seems that there's been a lot of arguement and not much action on getting things into a unified system, so I figured I'd just go and do it. What's your objection to having a centralized development location with proper version control and stuff. As a non-code my ability to contribute in other ways is limited, but i figured that getting stuff into a workable SVN tree would be a valuable contribution for those who DO code.

I know that several people are mysteriously against this, but I think this is a great idea! Only problem is, it has already been done (although it does not appear to have been used yet). Posts: 334 | Registered: Friday, September 14 2007 07:00 |

My suggestion: Upload the OSX version (executable + code) to the project.Upload the Win32 version (executable + code) once the licensing issue is fixed.Get Jeff to put a link to the project here so that everyone knows that this is the "official" project.Continue developing ;)(Since no work has been done, it does not matter which project is chosen as official.)

Well at the moment, *neither* project has anything in the SVN repo. If someone wants to actually get the ball rolling, I'll gladly contribute to any effort porting the BoE code to real object-oriented C++. Posts: 70 | Registered: Monday, April 12 2004 07:00 |

The most recent version for Mac is available here. I think it's a DARCS repository or something like that. :confused: I think there is some work in progress right now, but I'm not quite sure who's doing it. (Maybe *i or Khoth?). The current release for Mac is still not on Google Code, so if you have a mac and you can get madcrow to add you to the project, you could upload it. As for contributing, please do (if you have the time and are willing). If you use a Mac, the source is in the link at the top of the post. For Windows, the source is here. Don't download it from the BoE site as that is now out of date. The versions I linked to have already been ported to OSX and Win32 respectively, but there is a distinct lack of a character editor for both platforms. Perhaps you could help with that?
