Hi Folks,
I've been mulling over an idea for playing Sam games over a network.
Imagine if you will, a version of the very excellent SimCoupe that acted
as a server which would send the current screen to clients (with VNC
like encoding), and also act on key presses sent by the clients. The end
result would be like multiple people each with a virtual hand on the Sam
keyboard playing a single game. It should be quite feasible over a LAN,
or just a fast net connection.
Anyone considered something like this? Alas, I dont know if I could
devote enough time to work on it. Why must good ideas always require
lots of hard work?! ;)
Regarding SimCoupe, who is currently maintaining it? The only version I
can find on simcoupe.org is 0.81a, but I have version 0.90 beta 10
installed - and I cant remember where I got it from..
BTW. Happy New Year all! :)
Regards,
Will McGugan
