It would be nice to have native Linux port of this promising roguelike. All well known roguelikes and most of less famous run on Linux. I think it is mandatory for DoomRl to run on Linux to became as succesfull as Dungeon Crawl or Tome, or even as Nethack or Adom.

Yup, Linux binaries are planed for 0.9.9. Aerton was the last to test those :-D

Aerton, I assume you'll be ready to play around with another native linux version? :-D

I'm glad to hear. No need to mess around with emulators then and hopefully I will get sounds too.

Sounds probably yes. As for the music, I am currently only able to add mp3 support, cause I didn't find a way to play the MIDI on Linux.

These MIDIes are of very bad quality anyway, so it isn't a big loss.
Music in the DOOM itself is much better. I had good quality MIDI on an old CD-R, but it isn't readable anymore :( Quick search on the ned didn't succeed either. I think, we shall look for a good .mus->.midi convertor to extract music from the game instead.

To Aerton : I have all the midis converted from mus files for all dooms. I can send it by email to ilyabely_gmail (the one on your homepage).

About the playing of midis - why don't you use alsa? It's not that tough, and all the major cards are now supported.

It is a question for Korenl, as I have no access to the source code. AFAIK, he is using some library for sound, so it might be a limitation of the library.

I'm using FMOD for sound and it states clearly that there is no MIDI support for Linux :-(.

I probably would be happy with native linux version even without music.

I tried running ms win version in Wine without success. Dos version doesn't have sound so i even didn't try it.

try timidity++

its a linux midi synthesizer, as linux doesn't have it's own, unlike win/DOS.

btw. synthesizers are used for soundcards w/o midi ports.

Hey! Me too! Send it to my email at hunterkillr@gmail.com! I'll be hapy to beta-test and propagate it to the ubuntu forums once it's released.
