Bash script to start StarCraft in Linux. |
StarCraft Start is a pretty big Bash
script which starts StarCraft via the
Wine emulator. It searches for
starcraft, and automaticly mounts all
devices, and configures the X Window
System. Very handy.

Announcement for Kirellii SST with description |
2.1.0 |
Multiplayer web-based strategy game |
Starship Traders is a space-based game where players compete over a period of weeks or months using economic, military, and political strategies. Players trade between planets and ports, earning money and acquiring raw materials to build starbases and fighters. Players can form teams or play independently.
<p>
Starship Traders actually refers to several projects. The first was a browser game. Starship Traders II then consists of a dedicated server, currently at version 2.1.0 (released 2003) that could either be accessed through telnet, browser or a 3D client, at version 0.12d (released 2002) plus a fork of the client by Katrina Kirellii (Kirellii SST), at version 0.16/2.0 (released 2002, a version 3 also may have been released) which has vanished from the net but can still be downloaded on a page of the official client with fixes for Linux compilation. The official server at starshiptraders.com is gone now.
</p>
The history as written on one of the pages:<br />
Starship Traders II is derived, through a long and meandering lineage, from The Last Resort, which evolved from Tsarwars, itself inspired by Czarwars. Czarwars was a DOS-based BBS game dating back to December, 1986. Czarwars was inspired by Chris Sherrick's version of Trade Wars, which drew its inspiration from Hewlett-Packard's Star Trader, from The People's Book of Computer Games. |

Linux 3D client for Starship Traders |
<p>A new version of the <a href="http://happypenguin.org/show?Starship%20Traders">Starship Traders</a> multiplayer strategy game. The new version, ST2, has a 3D interface and includes an X-Window-based client program. ST2 is considerably faster than its WWW predecessor and integrates a graphical display and point-and-click mouse controls with a complete keyboard interface. Linux users are needed to participate in the first test game since no other operating systems are yet supported.</p>
<p>The new server is up and running now and a Linux version of the client is available. The client is a dynamically linked Linux x86 binary and requires the Mesa3D or OpenGL libraries -- which should already be installed on most modern distributions. Internet access is also required to play in the test game, of course.</p>
<p>The screenshot shows a sector with a starbase, a planet, a tradingpost, some sector debris, a few fighters, a wormhole, and, if you look closely, a couple of small starships in the lower left quadrant intermixed with the text. This screenshot is with the window at 640x480. For a less cluttered appearance you can click resize -- while playing -- to expand (or shrink) the window.</p> |

A very cool sound and graphics demo for X11 and SVGAlib |
Wow. Until I watched this demo, I hadn't realized how much I missed the productions of the Future Crew, Triton and others a few years back. If you don't know what I'm talking about, a "demo" in this sense is a demonstration of someone or some group's awesome graphics coding power, usually accompanied by music. State of Mind is no exception. It's a very fast-paced, hip montage of 3D graphics, old film footage and really nice film-ish effects. No description will do this demo justice, though. Take the time to download it and you'll understand what I'm talking about. There's a very high coolness factor here. State of Mind won 2nd place at The Party '98 demo competition in Denmark.
<p>
This demo runs under X11 or SVGAlib. If you run it with root permissions in X, it'll run in DGA (fullscreen) mode. |
