Not port requests but things I'd like to work on

Post by toastman »

Some stuff that I would like to work on if I had the time...

RPGMaker type utility, I simply love the one for the PSX
2D platformer in the style of Megaman(x)
an RPG :D
Old school top-down or side-scrolling shooter
DC Duck Hunter w/Light Gun Support :D
IRC client (why the hell not)

I'd love to do all of them, but right now I'm just trying to get one done.

I didn't want to spam up the Programming Discussion forum or the main forum with request.

Maybe we can rename this forum to Porting/Project Ideas?
:lol:

I'm honestly going to enjoy modding this forum...

As for your ideas, I *really* want a light gun game... I picked two up around Christmas for $6 a piece... There are just so many possibilities for a good gun game/shooting gallery (tic-tac-toe using a light gun to shoot your positions.... hmmm)

heh...

Heh, I suppose that would keep stuff like that IRC game people were discussing a few weeks ago out of the main forum. :wink:

Is this forum open now, or did toastman just not get custom metals?

It'll be open soon.

Due to a bug custom medals can't be added at the moment unless the person already had their own rank.

No, you can do & say what you want, but I still think enjoying looking at the things that will be posted in here is slightly disturbing. :P

Some games that I would like to see ported that are open source and would fill the void on the dreamcast of traditional first person shooters would be heretic, hexen, hexen 2, and quake 2. Understandably, noone has been able to port the original quake so hexen 2 and quake 2 would probably take a long time to see; but since crt0 and DC Grendel were able to port Doom, seeing heretic and hexen doesn't sound so far fetched. I am slowly trying to learn C++, and I have MS Visaul C++ 6.0 and MS Visual C++ 6.0 for Windows CE so if noone else is able or willing to make the ports, I might just have to try it out one way or another.

I would really want linux to be useful. I could compile all the little programs I wanted too, and run them easily. But noooo, it has to be sloow. So I am sad. Hopefully, there will be a new release soon (i doubt it), but I will work on this stuff...
