On http://www.muppetlabs.com/linux/descent/ ---- Descent/Linux Hackers Wed Jan 28 16:23:21 PST 1998 Big news! Patrick McCarthy just sent me email saying that he got Descent running under Linux. He says: There is no assembly code in it, I used all of the C code from the Mac ver. It compiles (not cleanly) and runs. No speed/optimizations whatsoever, no joystick support, slightly fubared graphics, and it randomly(?) locks the console. But it runs. I was able to get up to level 7 and die repeatedly because I suck ever so much on a keyboard. =) So, later tonight I will be adding his patch to this page and trying to get it working. Once that happens, I will start debugging it and converting things like sound and joystick support to Linux. I'll put the source up in a bit...
