SDL port
Post Posted: Sun Sep 05, 2010 1:06 pm
I would like to see a port of meka to SDL. This would make more or less any modern platform accessible to meka.
I know that there has been previous efforts to do this but I would like it to be a donate button towards this cause to give Bock the ability to take time to of to make it happen.
Personally I pledge at least 50 euro towards this. More if I get a job.

Hi,

There has been no real attempt to do it AFAIK.
It would be a real great thing to do. I think it could be done in one or two weeks of focused work. I wish I could do it (perhaps when I am out of job) and fix the sound as well to use eg: OpenGL (sound is more of a priority).

Okey, I read that somewhere, well that's the net.

SDL could handle every IO of meka (I think) including OpenGL.

Yes. The biggest problem are the more generic Allegro features that Meka uses, such as the font or datafile system, but nothing too difficult.
