*The Adventurers' Guild

Sorry for lack of updates.

Work got crazy so I had to back burner this project for a bit, but it's still going!

I am going to have a github with public access soon and a location to get builds so people can watch development as it progresses.

I just want to clean up the source code a bit and get ...

I figured out my goof, it isn't bugged.

I'm pretty sure running is bugged if I'm reading the assembly right.

If the monsters have a higher save value than the party, they succeed in running? That seems backwards. It would mean it would be EASIER to run from harder monsters. I guess I'll implement it this way, but I'm not sure it makes ...

Got walking around the city rendering correctly now =)

Gotta get events and stuff setup so I can have the city fully functional. Gotta do dungeon walking around, then there's not many more things to code before it's fully functional and playable!

I'm implementing it with the Bard's Tale artwork for now.

It can be updated to something else after I start enhancing the game =)

Doing the walk around of the city, and I can implement it with the original images, but part of me is considering doing this with actual 3D since I'm using OpenGL anyway.

Making excellent progress, almost 100% done implementing all the Adventure's guild tools. And it works with all the old MS-DOS chars too.

That doesn't dissuade me. Part of the reason for this is to make it open and modding support and the other part is I enjoy reverse engineering. =)

And yes, Open Source is the plan when I'm further along. Just got animations working. Few more art objects to get working then I can focus on the ...

Working on Win32/OpenGL port of the DOS Bard's tale.

I'm still getting the image rendering in order (Does animate the portrait yet and don't have fonts in yet) but I decoded much of the files so far.

Got the OpenGL shaders working nice to simulate palette and indexing. I use OpenGL 3.3.

Progress ...

I played DOS version primarily, and I have background with programming DOS, so that's what I'm working with.

Already finished part of the graphics import, and converted the bit planes to 4 bit pixels. Working on setting up the shaders for opengl to do the rendering now that I got a proper EGA ...

I was working on this as well, come to find yours further along. I am working on creating a C++ remake for a hobby, but was struggling with the Compression algorithm.

Perhaps this will aid.

Turns out they just use Huffman so I was disassembling the compression algorithm for no reason. Good to ...
