New Minigolf track
New Zen Garden track
New Subsea track
New Island battle arena
New Suzanne kart
New graphical effects
New weapons 'Swatter' and 'Rubber Ball'
Added Thunderbird as race referee

For X1000 computer with Debian: supertuxkart-0.7.3-linux-glibc2.7-ppc.tar.bz2

So now head to our downloads page, enjoy and give us a lot of feedback on the forum! Our forum: http://forum.freegamedev.net/viewforum.php?f=16

i dont see an amiga download section so do i just download the source?

I think it won't compile with just a brief perusal of the makefile and starting; or at least OS4Depot has 0.6.2a, no 0.7.x. Maybe you meant you want to work on it, though.

How hard is it to port this to os4?

Unless someone can justify why this is posted in the AmigaOS 4 forum, it should be removed. I can't find a download link to an AmigaOS binary for download in the posting.

@Thematic

Latest versions of supertuxkart want IrrLicht library, which os4 do not have (and even more, the very last version of supertuxkart, want the very latest version of Irrlicht).

But anyway, just to add: its just some kind of classic spam kind PR. Starting from 0.7 versions, game not avail not for os4, not for aros, not for morphos, but xeno74 by some reassons posting all of this on all amiga related sites, while he for sure know, that noone here in interest in non-amiga versions.

Maybe he in hope that someone will do the port after that, but Irrlicht is the problem.

@kas1e

Do you know what this irrlicht library is? Know if it's portable at all?

The game looks rather nice.

I not check if for myself, but all what i know, is that Yannick do "half-working" port for aros, but with the 0.7.x supertuxkarts its just crashes. And for the latest version of supertuxkart, need the very latest version of irrlicht, so if someone will do os4 version, still need to do the fresh one.

If anyone in interest, there is aros-half-working port and sources. Can be used as reference (To compile move to source/IrrLicht subdir and type make).

Even 0.6.x version on os4 are very slow. I assume with better graphics and one more deps as irrlich-library, it will be even slower.

@thread

not sure why this would be in the OS4 forum per se, but it might be of note to folks who are X1000 beta testers who are dual-booting debian.

i'd just like to be able to play this on my SAM. works beautifully on my solaris box.

@ xeno74

just a beautiful update that runs amazing on my PC so now I anxiously await the Amiga download

@ kas1e
good to see you posting here again Roman. Hope this means you didn't leave us after all !

The reason of this post is the ppc-linux port of STK for X1000 computer with Debian. We would like to know if this port work.

This is not a spam. STK is open source and we would like to support the X1000 plattform with Debian :)

Good to see this non bit of relevant news has been moved to Free for all.
