Re: Salvo Beta Test
I already mentioned to Richard that I was interested, but I'll post here also. A very fascinating period of history and of military tactics.

Re: Salvo Beta Test
Me too for the beta, assuming of course its going to work on Linux too  . Used to play Age of Sail too, along with the old Pirates! Gold from Microprose.

Re: Salvo Beta Test
StarTux:
If things go well, there will be a Mac Port – but there are no plans for a Linux Version of Salvo, at least not Salvo 1.
Sorry. However – beyond the immediate future - anything is possible.
How the heck did you get Age of Sail to run on Linux?

Ran Age of Sail under windows when I used to use Windows.
Will the Mac port, if things go well, be OS X native?
Thanks,

Re: Salvo Beta Test

I’m not entirely sure what sort of beast the Mac Version will be. I simply have not looked into it, and Iv been out of the Mac loop for long enough to not be sure what qualifies as “native” in OS X. Grass skirts? I do know that It may require something more than a one button mouse.

You have OS 9, and OS X. OS X is a completely different operating, based on Unix. Some older apps in OS X still have OS 9 type code (classic), also some newer software, which also tries to run in full OS 9 environment has some legacy code in it, but its harder to code from the results I have seen.
Best imho to go fully OS X in that case, Apple are pretty much doing all they can to phase out OS 9...
