And to be honest, I'd love to help in any way I could, but I dug up the threads in the LJP forums about CodeWarrior and compiling LJP and realized that it's next to impossible to get everything you need to port to PalmOS ARM code if you haven't already been doing it for years. Even the link to the $400 version of CodeWarrior is no longer a valid link...and after spending 1/2 hour browsing around their site I wasn't any closer to finding the right version. That plus the fact that I'm kinda broke right now anyways - my entire tax refund went toward debt and bills . I suppose we can always hold out for whatever new OS hits the market soon to replace the aging PalmOS. Whether it's ALP or Palm's new Linux based, or whatever, to be honest my next smartphone purchase may depend largely on what Metaview starts using (assuming he switches - eventually) because Tinnus's LJX will supposedly run on just about anything (at least that's the idea). However, if we were to suddenly have a PalmOS port of Stratagus working before we all move on to new platforms, I'm sure there are plenty of us who wouldn't complain

I guess I'll just have to pine for a Strategus port like coder12 does for Clonekeen... *wakes up and looks at screen* lol! I should probably get my old warcraft games and see if they work. Or maybe I could get my fully 3d rendered Starwars jedi knights 2 game to work! J/K (Can't I dream of more than Clonekeen? )

JKII ain't gonna happen on a mobile device, but the first would probably run ok (it still has a software rendering engine, doesn't rely solely on DirectX). Haha, could you imagine trying to control a lightsaber battle with a treo keyboard and stylus?

Well, I was joking about the JK games. But I think I have the first game too, I'll have to check and see if it runs in DOS. It would be cool to say that I've got the powers of the force on my Zodiac if it works. . . Metaview, not to hassle you or anything, but do you know what features will be used/implemented in the next version of PalmDOSBox? Just Curious.

Dark Forces was a DOS game, and may run (very slowly) in DosBox, but Jedi Knight is a Windows game.

Yes, there are several star wars games for Genesis too I believe. And there's even one for MAME.

Actually, there are a few "3d" line figure Star wars games for mame. None are that great though, i like super star wars better.
