XONOTIC NETRADIANT WONT COMPILE LINUX FULL

The kind of port I'm thinking of isn't a complete replacement! Rather a successor which could be maintained in parallel to the current srb2, while part of the same community. especially the maps, which need to be converted from the weird 2D schematics used by Doom into real 3D geometry. The second reason is that most of the existing content wouldn't be compatible with the new engine. Whenever I play srb2, I continuously tell myself 'this game could be so much more, if only it could be ported to any kind of modern engine'.īefore people yell at me: I'm aware of why this hasn't happened yet! First of all, it's not an easy task to port any game to another engine, which is something I see many projects trying but barely any succeeding so far.

But I hate what you see from the perspective of a developer: An extremely outdated engine struggling to keep basic functionality updated (such as the renderer) while stuck with a 2.5D map format which doesn't even let you customize the full 3D environment. The part I love is everything you see from the perspective of a player: The visuals, sounds, music, gameplay, levels, characters, etc. The reason why I haven't tried srb2 more frequently is that while I really love part of it, I kind of hate another part. I especially wanted to make it since I've been taking a better look at srb2 during the last days, and at the same time playing with various game engines, making the thought recurrent.

Now I heard on IRC that this sort of thing has been discussed in the past, so hopefully the thread won't make everyone go 'uhhh, not this again'.
