Civilisation : Call to power

[washo]

I found out on http://www.libsdl.org/index.php that Civ ; Call to power is available using SDL under Linux so thats mean this is an open source isnt it?
Can someone port this one from sdl linux to sdl GP32 (It seems to be a little different)
See you

Hi !

I know that there is a port for snes. Snes-Emu for GP32 -> Civilization for GP32 ;-)

Greetings

Civilisation CtP is not open source.
The fact that there's a linux/sdl version of it doesn't mean it's open source.
Heck there are linux versions of UT2003, Quake3, Sin, Kingpin, Jagged Alliance 2 etc...
Civilisation CtP is a commercial port done by the company Lokigames who also started the SDL project if I remember rightly. It is neither open source nor is there an SNES port available. Civ1 or 2 was ported to the SNES though I think...

civ1 is on the snes, but seems a bit cut down. atari st version works great on castaway once you get the hang of the controls

ist the atari st version playable without keyboard?
(i dont want to use the virtual keyboard for playing, only for getting started.)
the pc version is not really playable only with mouse...

I dont think the originals ctp source code has ever been released but the ctp2 source code has. It was released a while back.

It can be found here:

An ambitious port by any means

You could also port the slightly smaller FreeCiv alternative, which uses SDL if I remember correctly.

FreeCiv would be cool.

Dont hold your breath.

I always used to love Colonization on the Amiga or PC. I'd love to see a port of that! Did it come out on the Atari ST? If so, perhaps CaSTaway might play it...
