Okay now the wacky wheels port is a dumb idea i thought i would get positive things from it but anyways back to another game i think would be amazing and i only offer the best ports the reason why i am asking for this is it is now ported to X-Box and its a arcade style airplane shooter and looks good the source,info, and screenshots are available at:

Dogdgin' Diamond is the shooter, right? Actually, it will work.....I got an older version to work but it would crash as soon as I started the game.

Actually, I was working on this too :) I was slowed down by trying to re-write the 'fscanf' stuff so the reading/writing to the VMU would work. I was also going to add 'digital/analog' control options instead of 'keyboard/joystick'. If you don't mind, would you mind tag teaming on your code?

EDIT: Did you change to channel 1 in line 290 (if I didn't do any modifications/deletions) in main.c? That should get the sound working. Also, I haven't got to it yet but changing some of the screen settings in main.c and timing in engine.c should speed it up.

hrm i already have it all working... other than permission from the author and i sent him an email before i made my first post here asking for it. Until i get permission im just gonna finish tweaking the different menu systems and making the high score work on the DC (rotation style with the letters). oh, and after adding some nice speed compiler settings it runs at what seems to be full speed...

Update: I just got the ok from the author. It is pretty much ready to go. I plan on releasing in conjunction with the port of Shippy1984 (http://www.shippysite.com/manual.html) that i have been working on and one other shooter to release all at the same time. Within the next two weeks.

yea go for it. its easier when i dont have to look myself. but just so you know ive looked through most of the stuff linked to on libsdl.org, and selected the few i thought were definetly portable (lots of C++ out there).

Eric
June 26th, 2004, 05:00

Game playes good quzar when your going to release ito the public. Ive finshed a few times now. Only some little things to do high score table and such.

It's a good game worth you releasing it.

Well, at this point im pretty sure that Im getting my own webspace via Team Screamcast, and have talked to them about hosting this stuff. The only problem so far is that the website is not finished yet. When it is though, it will open with at least 2 ports by me ;D Until then... patience.

well the screamcast site is literally just for hosting screamcast information and releases, not a general purpose website. We're a pretty big team now, plenty of artists, coders, musicians, and others.
