Hi Paul,

First of all I would like to let you know that we are sorry for the huge delay you have been facing.

Do you still want your project hosted at GNU Savannah?

Regards,

Stephan

Registration Details


  • Name: libsyndicate
  • System Name:  libsyndicate
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU General Public License V2 or later





Description:

The sources are available at : http://paul.chavent.free.fr/libsyndicate/libsyndicate.tar.bz2
The documentation is available at : http://paul.chavent.free.fr/libsyndicate/doc/

Summary :
This project aims to provide an interface to the Bullfrog Syndicate data files (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syndicate_%28computer_game_series%29). This allow to extract sprites, missions properties, etc. It is written in C++ and compile on unices. This project also provide a documentation written in Latex that describe the format of files.

Origin :
A project named freesynd (http://freesynd.sourceforge.net/) is a free implementation of the game, but the code that access data is obscure, hardly readable and maintainable. So i had the idea to develop a library that could be used by many programs (games, level editors for example), and that could provide a common interface to data.

Usage :
When hobbyist programmer want to develop their game, creating the data part is not a peace of cake. So this library allow them to concentrate on the engine and the implementation of some new features (internet game, fullscreen, etc.).


Other Software Required:

Dependencies:
The code doesn't need no any third party software.
There is sample code for using the library that need SDL and the original game data files to compile and run.
There is a document that describe the format of the data files that need Latex and Dia to compile.
The html documentation of the API needs Doxygen to compile.
