Release Freeserf

[Jones]

Hi,
I have made a pnd of freeserf  just for the lulz. Sadly music and savegames don't work on the pandora, but since the project is still pretty alpha I haven't investigated further. You will need the file SPAE.PA of original Settler 1 / Serf City to play. Put it in the created appdata folder after the first run.

Edit: Music works with Timidity installed

Keyboard controls:

• 1, 2, 3, 4, 5: Activate one of the five buttons in the panel.
• +/-: Increase/decrease game speed.
• 0: Reset game speed.
• p: Pause game.
• s: Enable/disable sounds playback
• m: Enable/disable music playback
• z: Save game in current directory.
• j: switch player

This is great, I'm a big Settlers fan! By the way, the music works perfectly without any issues... I am guessing this is due to having Timidity MIDI instruments installed? 

 

[Jones]

Haha yeah you are right, I thought it was installed, but maybe I forgot reinstalling after last reflash. I updated the pnd, savegames now are supported. On startup it will automatically load the last savegame you did by pressing 'z'. I also found out you can change the player by pressing 'j'. So you are at least able to fight against yourself

Loving this - there's no combat or AI players, which suits me down to the ground

Oh brilliant news! Are you the original author of the Freeserf project?

 

[Jones]

No, https://github.com/jonls'>Jon Lund Steffensen is the original author as far I know.

 

[phi6]

Any plans for any updates? No pressure, just curious!

 

[Jones]

You best ask Jon directly on his blog via comment Surely more interest will motivate him

Already does everything I want it to - totally addicted to this.

thanks ! Have you thought about putting it in the repo ?

 

[Jones]

Have thought about it, but I think I will wait until Jon has implemented a basic AI.

Why did this disappear

Why did this disappear

What disappeared?  The link to the PND attached in the first post still seems to work.. This appears to have never been published to the repo.

Hi all

Sorry for grave digging an old thread, but the link to the PND is dead.

Cheers, Magic Sam

The link in the text is dead for me, but the link in the attachment box just below at least starts downloading an pnd file.

Thanks @levi, you are right
