jfsw (source port of Shadow Warrior first-person shooter game)
|
|
|
|
The aim of this port is to present Shadow Warrior as closely as possible
|
|
to the original game while adding optional features to expand the
|
|
possibilities of the game.
|
|
|
|
To play the game, you will need the sw.grp data file from either the
|
|
full or shareware DOS version of Shadow Warrior. If you want to play the
|
|
shareware version, you can install jfsw_demo_data from slackbuilds.org.
|
|
For the full version, copy sw.grp from the game directory to
|
|
/usr/share/games/jfsw/sw.grp (the filename must be lowercase).
|
|
|
|
If you have sw.grp from the full version of the game, you may also want
|
|
to install jfsw_hires_pack for some graphic enhancements (don't bother
|
|
trying, if all you have is the shareware sw.grp: it segfaults on startup).
|
|
|
|
Note #1: There's no way to enable the mouse from the in-game menus. To
|
|
enable the mouse, you must run the game at least once to create its
|
|
config file (~/.jfsw/sw.cfg), then edit the config file and change
|
|
ControllerType to 1. You probably also want to change MouseAimingOn to 1,
|
|
for a more modern "mouselook" style of play.
|
|
|
|
Note #2: The Ambience setting in the Sound Setup menu is permanently
|
|
disabled, because the ambience code causes the game to crash.
|
|
|
|
Note #3: Multiplayer does work (at least for LAN play). See
|
|
/usr/doc/jsfw-$VERSION/releasenotes.html for multiplayer usage.
|
|
|
|
Note #4 (for Slackware 64-bit users): The source includes x86 assembly
|
|
code, so can't be built for any non-x86 architecture. If you're using
|
|
x86_64, you might (or might not) be able to build jfsw on a 32-bit
|
|
Slackware system and install it on x86_64 along with alienBOB's compat32
|
|
packages and get it to run.
