Classic Blades of Exile
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
This project hosts the source code to the classic RPG creator Blades of
|
|
Exile after it was released
|
|
by [Spiderweb Software](http://www.spiderwebsoftware.com/) under GPLv2.
|
|
It is a svn-git transfer from the
|
|
[Google Code Project](http://code.google.com/p/openexile/); all issues
|
|
and trunk code has been ported.
|
|
|
|
The primary purpose of this project is to provide bug fixes to Blades of
|
|
Exile
|
|
so that it can compile and run on modern operating systems. The
|
|
secondary purpose is
|
|
to generalize and extend its functionality while maintaining backwards
|
|
compatibility.
|
|
|
|
If you would like to be added to this project contact
|
|
[Sylae](https://github.com/sylae)
|
|
or one of the other people on the owners list. This is an open project,
|
|
with no strong prerequisites
|
|
for getting commit access. With that in mind, please be careful of what
|
|
you check into the repository.
|
|
Please do not commit any binaries, junk files, or anything that doesn't
|
|
compile.
|
|
|
|
The current task at hand is to merge the Windows code into the current
|
|
Mac codebase, which no longer uses platform-specific APIs for most
|
|
things (a few files would need to be rewritten for Windows).
|
|
|
|
I'd like to consider the Win32/ directory to be considered "frozen" from
|
|
this point on. Apart from minor bugfixes, it should not be altered. The
|
|
src/ directory is to be the official codebase now; as of the time of
|
|
this writing, it only compiles on OSX, but reimplementing a handful of
|
|
files (basically all the .mm ones) should suffice to fix that.
