Overview:
Amiga 68k port of D1X-Rebirth v0.58.1.
D1X-Rebirth is an enhanced source port of the Descent for Windows, Mac OS,
Linux and AmigaOS. This port is very slow on real 68k hardware because
it's much more demanding than the original PC game (enhanced).
Requirements:
1) An RTG Amiga.
2) 68060 processor or better.
3) 64 MB of RAM
4) AHI installed (see links section below).
5) Music packs for music playback (see links section below).
6) CAMD library installed and configured for native MIDI playback (see links
section below).
7) A copy of the PC/Mac game data files (DESCENT.HOG and DESCENT.PIG).
Features:
* RTG SDL port
* Native MIDI support (CAMD)
* AHI Sound support
* Joystick support
* OGG/WAV/MIDI music support (SDL Mixer)
* Fullscreen and window mode support
Configuration Options:
The tooltype 'closewb' can be used to close the Workbench.
The AHI device used will be the one configured in your AHI Prefs (Unit 0).
If you want to use the cockpit view in higher resolutions then you will
need to use the Mac data files.
AddOns will expand D1X-Rebirth by adding new content and music (see links
section).
Just copy the downloaded DXA-file into the directory where the game content
resides.
To uninstall an AddOn, just delete the DXA-file and you are done.
I have created and included a custom DXA-file for MIDI playback.
You will need to have 320x240 and 640x480 RTG 8 bit screen modes
available to Workbench (fullscreen mode).
The mouse will automatically lock when running in a window (CTRL+m to unlock).
Performance Considerations:
1) If you have a Blizzard you should really be using BlizKick, Apollo users
should be using RemApollo.
2) Fast File System is actually really slow, use PFS3 instead.
3) Stick with v4.18 of AHI as the later versions without the 'FAST' modes are
slower.
4) Playing OGG compressed music on a real Amiga will be very slow, try using
WAV files or MIDI instead.
5) Running in a window with an 8 bit screen mode will be slower.
Limitations:
1) No network or multiplayer support.
2) No CDROM support.
