Topic: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

while I playing with Teeworlds on my PC, I thought might be fun to play with my Nokia N900. The Nokia N900's operating system is Maemo 5, based on Debian, has a touchscreen and a QWERTY keyboard, is perfect for hosting Teeworlds! I ask to the developers to think about it! wink

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

This has been suggested many times, not exactly on this platform but on many other mobile systems. Unfortunately the developers don't have the time and resources to do this themselves but you (and all others) are free to play around with this as much as you want. It would certainly be an interesting development if this would become reality.

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

yes, but Maemo is a platform of Linux and porting is more simple that to other mobile system. And this is only an suggestion! but if the developers of this game don't have the time, i think that another developers porting this game on the n900 through the sources of the game available (thank developers for this)!

Thank you for answer! wink

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

Maybe best way is compiling and running it on your own, or buying devs some N900s smile. As you said, it should work.

It's the same with Windws Mobile... (easier to port)

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

I guess, it'll be really unplayable with such a smal screen. Also you aren't really able to react good and to aim good.

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

May be, but it is just 11cm * 6,5cm and isn't that pretty smal?

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

Size of tees and all other should be smaller then on a pc. Now you can use WASD to move [any key] to jump and touch screen to aim and fire. This pretty good smile

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

Did anyone started working on this project?? Because I feel it will be great if we can have mobile version for it. And I am pretty excited. I am a game  developer and animator so if any help needed by me then just tell me.

Actually I already did Teeworlds for N900, sorry for not telling it here sooner (had problems with signing in here).

There's also some video of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9nv8ApFwJg .

It's not really Teeworlds mobile version but pretty much Teeworlds as is. Maemo (N900) port required only changes Opengl ES context creation (Maemo's standard SDL1.2 doesn't support it), changing GL_QUADS to GL_TRIANGLES and changing mouse control to absolute instead of relative.

There's room for improvement too. Especially all the menus all pretty hard to use with such a small screen. N900 players are pretty handicapped against PC players so there could be servers which are visible for N900 (or mobile) players only.

Latest source can be found here http://maemo.org/packages/source/view/f … 2-1maemo2/

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

Hey there. Sounds like a cool project there tongue i tried similar things with android as the OS... however i haven't been lucky yet. I was able to get the GFX part to compile using the hint mentioned above. however, it still fails at the point where it should be linking. apparently, the NDK does that a different way. ( I am using this SDL port for android for a start: http://www.anddev.org/sdl_port_for_andr … t9218.html )
Any ideas? Anyone who wants to pick that up? smile

P.S.: it seems like the missing "glu.h" is causing a lot of problems.... just as a side note... neutral

edit: some key points of the errors (at least i think they are ... )

Re: [GAME] Nokia N900 port

I already have teeworlds on my n900, I found it on the extras-devel repository. Works pretty well though it's hard to play with such a small screen and keyboard tongue
