This is an open-source reimplementation of Anachronox, built on top of the Quake 2 engine (which funnily enough is the same engine Anachronox was developed upon). It's important to note that this project is operating to reimplement the game through publicly available documentation and observation, rather than dissassembly, which should hopefully be fine from a legal standpoint. Project Goals - Reimplement Anachronox (duh) - Support for multiple platforms; linux, android and more - Make the game easier to modify - Improved visuals Immediate Roadmap - [ ] Modernise renderer w/ modern OpenGL (i.e. 3.3) - [ ] Finalise MD2 loader - [x] Multiple skin support - [ ] Vertex key morphing (for facial animation) - [ ] MDA specification—ensure all features are supported - [ ] Virtual machine for APE scripts Features It's still in a very early stage of development, so nothing is playable yet. Below is a list of what's been done thus far. - Loading from Anachronox's DAT packages - Engine can initialise itself from the Anachronox game directory - Some preliminary work on loading Anachronox's models - Supports the various texture formats Anachronox uses (e.g. PNG, BMP and TGA) - Respects custom texture surface flags, inc. alpha effects for textures - Extended limits, which is necessary for some maps to load Extras These are additional enhancements introduced here that the original game didn't necessarily feature. - Can target x86, x64 and ARM64 architectures - Support fo","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/hogsy","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/hogsy/chronon/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
