ZQuestClassic VS openmw

I've been doing some modernization on an old scripting language used by the game engine I work on [1]. Added a garbage collector, simplified how internal symbols are defined, added a VS code extension with some niceties like syntax highlighting, "Go to Definition", and doc tooltips. Also recently added support for websockets and plan to tackle JSON soon.

ZQuest Classic - Engine to play and create games like the original Zelda. C++, OpenGL

Developing a new website for the open source game engine I work on. Nearly finished with it.

https://zquestclassic.com

It's a Zelda-like game engine with some 1000ish games made in it over 20 years. Used to be called Zelda Classic, but we renamed it this year.

Thanks, that was a silly oversight. Your comment is appreciated, as it saved an instruction in my game engine's JIT compilation :)

I found Sentry's crash reporting (which uses crashpad) simple enough to configure into an existing CMake build within an afternoon.

Building Sentry/crashpad from source in a few lines of CMake: https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic/commit/3471...

And a few lines in the main function: https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic/commit/3471...

My hobby is working on a 20+ year game engine. Still occasionally delete DOS-only code in it. https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic

```

The `Hero.{x,y}` properties here are a custom fixed precision number class with some implicit conversions to int, which I suspect being relevant to the crash.

Using it locally too, works great on Mac, but on Windows ccache has some problems caching debug builds. IIRC the embedded debug symbols use absolute paths, so the presence of this particular flag (/Z something...) disables cache eligibility.

i love zelda. if interested in custom quests on pc, go to zeldaclassic.com 100s of custom quests

If you'd like to try custom quests on computer, go to http://zeldaclassic.com

OpenMW - The Elder Scrolls Morrowind clone. C++, OpenGL

I downloaded the build via openmw-0.48.0-Linux-64Bit.tar.gz, it runs very well, but whenever I add the game as a shortcut to steam, the performance fumbles, I get around 25-30 fps at best, and I tried to experiment a bit and search more on the internet for a solution before posting in here, but nothing have helped as of yet. If there's someone who worked it out, please share it with us.

They haven't been great at announcing progress lately, but it is ongoing. The GitHub page is showing plenty of commits still coming in: https://github.com/OpenMW/openmw/commits/master

It's open-source and anybody can take a look at the code. Trading and Speechcraft changes are detailed here and here, respectively.

There's also a fan made open source game engine recreation for it called OpenMW that makes it a dream to play on anything from an android phone to a Mac to a PC.

On the main openmw config, there's different files listed https://github.com/OpenMW/openmw/blob/master/files/openmw.cfg

Download this .dmg and install this version of OpenMW. I pulled it straight from their GitHub and it is the same one I use. Try the process with this see if it helps?
