Native Android Port

[andwan0]

Where is the sourceforge or github of the native android port?

If there isn't one, does anyone have the patch files to the android port?

I recently tried to resurrect this work and have been picking at it sporadically. I got a new phone and have to maintain my tradition of porting exult to each new phone I get I've gotten a current snapshot of the code to compile and run without link errors, but am not far enough to have anything on the screen yet. My spare time is very limited, so I don't expect to make quick progress on this, but I'll post again when I get something playable. This time I'd like to get the changes pushed into the official repository so that they don't get lost.

Hey Ken, great to know you are working on this again and that it compiles (I think when we fixed indentation and such things all over the code, we probably screwed your old patch).
I think the biggest hurdle last time was that we are extremely understaffed with active developers, especially those that would try to run it themselves on Android.
My suggestion is to make a fork on Github, I'd like that, especially to see your progress and changes you make over time.
There is a recent iOS port on https://github.com/litchie/exult-ios that I'm helping out with little things.
It might be a good place to compare notes and how interface things are being thought through.

Any news on that one? :<

I'm curious as to whether anyone still has a copy of Ken's old work. The Dropbox links in the main (locked) Native Android thread have gone dead (and apparently they're due to kill a whole bunch more next week).

Ping me again in 10 days. I think I saved the patch somewhere

[Bomb Bloke]

Thanks, will do.

Uploaded to the patch tracker *but* it's only the patch not the actual binary file (apk).

(also updated the original thread)

Mark Balfe's updated patch is also in our patch tracker

Thanks, I'll see what I can do with them.
