Overview:

Amiga 68k port of OpenDUNE.

OpenDUNE is an open source re-creation of the popular game "Dune II",
originally made by Westwood Studios, and released by Virgin Entertainment.
It attempts to re-create the original game and apply modern technology to it
to allow it to be run natively on most operating systems.


Requirements:

1) An RTG Amiga.
2) 68060 processor or better (PiStorm recommended).
3) AHI installed and configured.
4) CAMD library installed and configured for native MIDI playback.
5) A copy of the PC game data files (must be the correct version!).


Features:

 * SDL based port
 * MIDI support (GM/MT-32)
 * AHI Sound support
 * Fullscreen and window mode support
 * 32-bit scaler support
 
 
Configuration Options:

When running from the Shell you must specify a stack of at least 300,000.
If you decide to use a different game data directory then you'll need to
update the 'opendune.ini' file to match.
You will need to install the CAMD library if you want to use an external MIDI
device.
You also need to enable your CAMD MIDI device using the 'opendune.ini' file.
The mouse will automatically lock (CTRL+m to unlock when running in a window).
You can toggle fullscreen with (ALT+ENTER) during gameplay.


Performance Considerations:

1) Fast File System isn't, use PFS3 instead.
2) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow on real hardware.
3) Image scaling will add an additional overhead.


Limitations:

1) None.
