Hi All,
The next game port will be.... UFO:AI
I initially planned to do VDRIFT (it got 3 votes). I downloaded it and
compiled under Linux. After playing with it, I however decided not to do
the port. There are 3 main reasons:
a) the game has a tendency to stall at random points, even if I get 100
FPS I get sub-second stalls which are very irritating
b) with all details maxed out the game run under 20 FPS on 8300 + NVIDIA
binary driver, taking into account speed difference between Nouveau and
NVIDIA driver, the game would most probably not be playable on AROS
c) the game visual appearance was rather medium and did not meet the "3D
capability showcase" criteria.
Getting back to UFO:AI, again it will just be an executable. You need to
download data files:

Best regards,
Krzysztof
