Hi,

I finished porting my static recompilation of X-COM: Terror from the Deep to Pandora.

Original DOS X-COM: Terror from the Deep is required for playing.

Forum topic for newer releases is here.

Edit (06.11.2011):
X-COM: Terror from the Deep was updated to version 1.2.0 with the following changes:
* MIDI playback using WildMIDI
(old MIDI playback using SDL_mixer can be set in the configuration file)
* show the Readme in the Documentation submenu

Cool :-D
I'll test it right away.

Thx for all the static recompilations. Every time I see a new thead from you, I get grin on my face

May I ask: What is your next target and would "Master of Orion" be feasible?

How the hell do you do it? And what's stopping you from doing certain games?

More awesomeness from M-HT!!!

I just played a game and it is working great.
Thanks again M-HT!

What you are doing here is pure magic. Thanks for that!

One more vote to Master of Orion 1.

Another thank you from myself!

Hey great!
So much to try out these days.

(You got me dreaming... Would it somehow be possible to make such a static recompile that would run a t a decent speed of Frontier: First Encounters? That would be so awesome!)

I have no more static recompilations to port and I'm not planning to statically recompile other games at the moment - I'll be working on other projects.
Master of Orion is not possible recompiling using my approach.

How the hell do you do it? And what's stopping you from doing certain games?

Lots and lots of work. Only certain games are possible to recompile using my approach - generally they have to use dos extender, can't use self modifying code, ...

I see.

M-HT: Do you know if Crusader: No Remorse/No Regret are possible to recompile with your approach? What's the best way to find out if they are using a dos extender?

They seem to have Playstationports, so maybe not worth the hassle, as they can be emulated.

The first game does have a Playstation port, but the 2nd one does not.
