Subject: Re: How to get to MM/JSW files?

 

Ho ho ho!


Have you been naughty boys this year? How many JSW games have you created? None?

You're really naughty!


Just kidding :)


Congrats with the upcoming New Year! Merry Christmas (I'm a bit late, forgive me)


Long time no see! Its so great to get email notifications having news from this wonderful group. Daniel, Sendy — what a pleasant surprise :-) Hope you're well.


Not a pleasant surprise, that all the files here had gone — though, I have mostly the whole collection on my mac, but I suppose, I could miss some new games that had been released after 2008. What's up with Andrew Broad website with all the links? Can't find it that easy. A lot of our games could be founded on WOS, but don't you think — maybe we'll have to create a special webpage with list of all the games, like Andrew Broad? Just a common html page with working links, so that anybody anytime could browse them? Would be way more cool if the list could be sorted by alphabetic order, by author, or by date of release. That'd be nice. I suppose I'll can handle it, if somebody would help me to give me the latest and full list of jsw/mm games. Tell me what you think.


Also one question — did anyone happen to launch JSWED on mac? I've read that John Elliott made a link to the source of his latest editor, claiming that it will run on Macos X, but I can't figure out anyway, how to compile that bunch of separated files into an app. I appreciate in somebody would help me with an advice, though I'm not quite sure that it will work on Mavericks.


Hehe, my Zx Heroes were released in 2003 just as a notification to the 20-th anniversary since MM release, and nobody noticed, that it's already 30 years since its creation. These 10 years have passed with the blink of any eye speed :-)

Happy Holidays to everyone and stay in touch!

Sincerely yours,
