The Mana World Forums

hello all,
just followed a post by Skull i think http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php? ... highlight=
and im quite interested in joining u guys, well, Ive been writing C code for about 7 years now, did some OpenGL stuff and worked with SDL library http://www.libsdl.org/index.php .
hope to hear from u soon
p.s, I work only with linux, its my desktop, but I do have windows 2003 at home so I can help with the windows version too although I hate developing under windows!

Welcome dear tumbak Every help is very useful!
Do you prefer linux? No problem you can do whatever you want, but I think it's better if you talk with Sull who is the Linux version manager.
I have to say that if you contribute with linux version you also contribute with win32 because the 99% of the code is the same. If I'm not wrong Linux version has some more headers to translate some win32 specific commands.

Hope you enjoy!

i was just going through the forums and noticed that u r guys are quite active, I think im gonna need a week or to to understand everything going on, I have exams this week so I wont be able to do much, but afterwards I have quite some free time.
I also noticed that u r using the SDL library for sounds and such, its available to linux and so we might not need alot of work to keep the windows and linux version flowing together.
I wish to say something about the license, I believe GPL is the best for such projects, you might also consider LGPL or even BSD license.
I'll be downloading the source now and have a look at it later tonight, I hope to get to know u guys more so we can increase our productivity, u can add me to ur MSN if u use it: tumbak@hotmail.com
hope to hear from u soon guys

welcome^^

this will help out really alot

linux code is not much different from win32 since its not the api used all are mostly cross-platform code so that wouldnt be problem

seems you much interested in linux, now tmw can also be made easily for linux^^
