Software News : OpenBOR for AmigaOS 4.1 released

Posted by K-L on 2010/10/14 14:10:00 (4359 reads) News by the same author

Beats of Rage is a freeware open source video game and moddable game engine made by Senile Team and inspired by Sega's classic Streets of Rage series. The term "moddable" means that the program allows users to create their own content, and thus their own beat-'em-up game, which is then called a "mod".

OpenBOR is the open source continuations of Beats of Rage and provides additional functionality not available in the original Beats of Rage game. It allows modders to add more moves and combos, amongst other things. OpenBOR is maintained by the lovely people at LavaLit.

The game has been tested with AmigaOS 4.1 and 4.1u2, Sam440 667/800 Mhz and AmigaOne G3/G4.

Huno has once again worked on optimizations and the joypad is even supported. The game can be played with effects (scale2X, bilinear, hq2X ...) and supports new and old PAK (easily found over the Internet).

OpenBor can be downloaded on OS4Depot
The 1st PAK can be downloaded at Senile Team's site

Enjoy !

Give us your good links for great paks unforgettable Thank Hunoppc

If it's here, I would propose Huno as he spends a lot of time on his ports. This is greatly appreciated. Thanks Huno, You rock!

Are you saying GP2X paks are good? I thought you earlier said they were low-resolution? Also, I don't see any Windows PAKs on www.senileteam.com , unless you mean DOS. Are DOS paks any good? PAK downloads for most consoles seem to require registration.

Having trouble finding/downloading paks so far, is it it possible to upload the original pak onto OS4depot, maybe seperate from OpenBOR itself?

Wanted to ask how hard it would be to port something from RuneSoft game collection? I ask, as I am sure they would not mind someone else porting their games that they themselves have ported. Cheers P.S. Is this new version of OpenBOR faster and more feature packed then the original BOR I downloaded ages ago?
