1218 Xbat games 2113 Xbat Decent game, but somewhat jumpy on P133 ThinkPad laptop w/ Linux-Mandrake. Not a smooth-scroller. Xevious was a pretty fun game, and this is pretty faithful. Needs a bit more graphics work and some speed tweaking. 1999-08-13 16:08:11 0
1219 Myth II: Soulblighter demo games 325 Myth II: Soulblighte Wonderful game! I've ordered the full version :) Runs very smoothly at 1024x768x16 on my Celeron 333. It'll be nice to see how it goes with Viper 550 3D support... 1999-08-13 19:25:36 0
1220 Xbat games -1 Xbat Great game, only wish it had sounds. Building on RH5.2 wasn't too bad; after running xmkmf -a you have to edit the Makefile and set UNION to 1 manually, then run "make xev" (not just "make" as the INSTALL doc says). Can't wait to see where he takes it. 1999-08-14 08:01:29 0

1222 GtkPool games 1876 GtkPool A VERY promising game. I only have one gripe, but it is minor: GtkPool needs a command-line option to disable sound, or at least better handling on a system that doesn't have sound. I have no sound card setup in Linux, and the game gave me a segfault on startup. This is easy to fix... Just open up application.cc in your text editor, go to line 507 or so, and comment out the open_sound_device(); and configure_sound_device(); lines. You might also need to change "sound = true;" to say "sound = false;" ... Great game, though! 1999-08-14 13:06:23 0
1223 Anachronism games 1876 Anachronism I *really* want to try this game out... But, as many people are complaining, it seems impossible to compile. Does anyone know how to get it working under Slackware? Or at the very least, could someone post a static binary for us ppl who can't compile it? 1999-08-14 13:14:26 0
1224 Quake 3 Arena games -1 Quake 3 Arena I only have a p166 and a Voodoo2, and it works beautifully speedy for me. Are you sure you have your 3d drivers and appropriate glide and something like "export MESA_GLX_FX=f" in your .bash_profile? 2000-03-17 16:16:08 0
1225 Blackbox games -1 Blackbox I tired to go to the homepage, but I get this error: Not Found The requested URL /k~arlb/blackbox.html was not found on this server. Apache/1.3.6 Server at www.linuxstart.com Port 80 1999-08-14 17:06:16 0
1226 Anachronism games -1 Anachronism I think that qt cant be statically linked but I'm not sure. If anyone knows how to do it, please tell me and I will put a binary static version on the web. Nikos Vasiliou, The author 1999-08-14 17:08:20 0
1227 Glasteroids games -1 Glasteroids Bummer! The download links are broken! No fair! 1999-08-14 19:54:18 0
