Hey, this is great news!

In fact it is the best news i read on xbox-scene this year ^_^

I remember playing this game on my lowly 386SX-33 and having a complete blast!

YES.
I am one pleased man.

I love you all. So very much.

Let me know if there's any tedious work I can do to speed things along.

Pretty much the only things that are causing major problems are the bits of code to load fonts. Its hard to truly appreciate the game when you can't read the story or use any of the menus but the parts of the game that do work ok (i.e. super melee mode) are very cool running on the xbox.

If I don't get the existing font loader code working by the end of today I will have to consider rewriting it or something.

as mentionned, mad problems with paths in the core engine.

as we're keeping up the good work, Carch helped us with the sound and voila - speech works perfectly

And with speech we can now also see the ugly ones

thx carch

*edit* now, if we can solve fonts, we prolly have a beta.

actually

located the problem, they use the "." dir in directories to check if things is a folder or a file, and since xbox doesn't have those, it "never found" dirs.

afaik, just testing remains

the joker · « **Reply #26 on:** May 31, 2005, 05:31:00 AM »

ok, we have sendt it out to some testers for pre-release testing. In addition to tmauls test-panel, I'm putting some of the testers of avalaunch through it. Few more days and it should be ready to release, unless there's some huge bugs.

One thing that worries me a tad is that it's over 13.000 files

But since probably all of you are using avalaunch and qwix anyway, that's no issue hehe

I have been waiting for this for so long!!!

Perhaps to help with the issue of files, maybe using the .uqm (zip renamed) packs ?

Thanks again

Holy crap! I forgot to check this thread out since I started it, and now there is a working port of Star Control II (aka urquan masters) out!!! Man o man o man...can you send me a private message with an ftp address so I can try it? If not I guess I can wait until your stable official copy is out... So I assume everything is in here, music and all? Can't wait! Thanks!

Music, Speech and 3do intro and ending movies are all there. The controls are setup nicely for the xbox controller and with luck it should be runable from dvd or hdd. All in all the xbox is the perfect machine for some Star Control 2 fun.
