DF General Discussion / Re: Will Legacy be developed anymore?
« on: November 23, 2023, 11:12:08 am »
Thanks for the reply and I am sorry for the loss of a family member. I wasn't trying to be insensitive, I actually am a fan of Legacy DF (pre-v50) more than I am of the v50++ (am I the only one? lol..) so was just wondering if the 'ancient' versions would ever see the development side of things again.

I have a Windows gaming pc as well as Mac (for work/etc), and I play legacy on my windows pc. But I find the experience more enjoyable on my old mac laptop that is no longer viable. I knew it may be a long shot but I had to ask!

DF General Discussion / Will Legacy be developed anymore?

I know time and resources are quite limited, but I have to ask if DF legacy (ASCII version) will continue to be developed any more? Been waiting on updated mac silicon version but ran out of breath...

If you're still not sure, can you tell us *what it would take* to be able to develop Legacy DF for modern machines? And if you are open to doing so?

I know some had trouble getting it to work properly on M1/2, and I'm not aware if any reliable solution was found. So even for pre-50 versions running the windows version through some compatibility or emulation layer is probably needed on non-intel hardware.

Gaahhh! Darn, thank you for letting me know. I may just convert to linux after all lol! Thanks again

Classic versions of 50+ are also only for windows currently. Porting to Linux and Mac will happen, but it could be a while.

Im sorry i meant **LEGACY**, 47.5 and previous. My fault. Is there any difference in requirements for LEGACY df from intel mac to mac silicon? Thank you for your reply

DF General Discussion / DF Classic -> Mac Silicon?

Hi!

I love DF *EDIT* LEGACY (47.5 and previous for mac/linux) and especially enjoy playing on my mac. Im just wondering, since I am shopping for a new silicon mac, if DF LEGACY will still install the same as on my current intel based mac. Are the wiki install articles for mac still relevant for the new M1/M2's? Ive read wine is necessary for the newer steam/io version but I am only interested in classic.

Thank you for the insight and sorry if this is a silly question.
