Demo support? #13

Closed neuromancer closed 2 years ago

neuromancer commented 2 years ago

I'm wondering if it is possible to run the game with the demo files? This will allow users to quickly test the this nice port, even if you don't have the full game.

alariq commented 2 years ago

It should be possible because I did not modify data formats (that was the idea). Though the full game is free AFAIK, so everybody can download it. Also, I have a repo (https://github.com/alariq/mc2srcdata) with original game data files and scripts/tools (written by me) to generate packs from them (or unpack original packs), so it can be useful for modders.

It's great that the game is free, but a small download with the demo files could be nice to people to quickly test the game. It's up to you, of course :smile:

Ah, I see what you mean now. I was planning to make a release package. Maybe I'll make one once I'll have some free time.

alariq commented 2 years ago

So I am closing this one, because we have another issue about making a release build
