Can you please put compiled releases? (different OSes)

leonbottou commented 1 year ago

Which OSs?

This is derived from the original version of Kegs which depends on X Windows. Easy on Linux, possible on Mac, hard on Windows. One would have to replace all the X windows code by the SDL code of more recent version of kegs.

SEGStriker commented 1 year ago

Of course, for all three main OSes :) If it is hard for you to compile Kegs for Windows, just imagine how hard it will be for ordinary users. 99% of them don't even have compilers installed.

Still no releases. Is the project dead? I see no updates for 6 years.

It works. You have to compile from source and provide the ROMS. I have no intention to provide binaries because compiling is not the only obstacle: you also have to get the ROMS. At some point I tried to propose my changes to GSPlus, but never got a reply. Feel free to fork if you find it can be useful.

The rom files are easy to find, even for those who don't own the system. Compilation is not that easy, it is needed to install the compiler and some additional tools and libraries. Most people wouldn't do that.
