IRIX and Software

Anyone tried building this for IRIX?

I tried a while back, but didn't get very far

I'll give it a shot

Cool! Now i have to find my Marathon CDs!!

Well, it looks like the latest release supports IRIX! I just built it tonight (which is a bloody miracle for a dimwit like me). Ahhh, the memories. What an awesome game. If you'd like to see the predecessor to Halo, give it a shot

More info on open source Marathon can be found here .

Ah.. Aleph One! I saw that again the other day. Would be sweet to have. Since we have neko_SDL now it should be workable...

I built it last night with GCC and FW_SDL. It seems to work fine on my 400Mhz O2. Movement is fluid in Marathon 2. Seems stable. I'd offer to build a Nekoware version, but I really don't know what I'm doing, so I'll leave that to the experts I'm going to have to try it with the high res texture pack. Link to that is on the Marathon Open Source page.

I wonder if it's possible to port the Level editors (Pforte and Anvil)? I think those are opened up too.

Now to see if it runs on my R4400 Indy! Wish I knew where my Marathon Infinity Disk was

zafunk: check your PMs please.

Oooh... I'd be interested in seeing a build of this that'll work on the Indy, that's for sure!

I remember playing the Marathon 1/2/infinity demos from MacWorld CDs on my 7300/200 so-long ago... it would be fun to be able to do the same on the Indy.

Biiiiig bump...

Anybody tried building this recently? I can't get past the boost header dependencies. I put them in /usr/include/boost and /usr/nekoware/include/boost, and even though they are in my include path it still says they (bind.hpp specifically) can't be found.

I'm interested myself.
Has anyone had luck building it on other systems like the Indigo2 or the Onyx?

If your i2 supports mips4 you can use neko_alephone. The package also includes a litte patch.

I wasn't aware that neko_alephone was receiving updates. Looks like it dates back to '05. IIRC, networking didn't work either.

Did they change anything in the last 2 years?

It's updated frequently enough to be annoying when I was trying to get it committed to pkgsrc. I'd just get it submitted for review and a new release would appear.
