Hi,
some of you might remember the game Diablo1 which was released in 1996 for Microsoft operating systems.
The game was a great success for Blizzard and received an Add-on called Hellfire a year later.
In 2018 a project started to reverse-engineer Diablo1 and make it available on other platforms like macos, Haiku aso.,
so we thought it was time to figure out if it was possible to port it to Irix 6.5 too.
So far we built devilutionX and can start it, but we still have some problems with the path to the file that actually contains all of the game-data.
Our 1st effort is also built against SDL1.2 which has some limitations compared to SDL2 which e.g. allows upscaling to higher resolutions.
I will update this thread as we make progress...
