Description

OpenOMF is a Open Source remake of "One Must Fall 2097" by Diversions Entertainment. Together with networking support, OpenOMF tries to make it easier to play One Must Fall in its original glory on multiple platforms.

Project goals: * At first, as faithful a game binary to the original as possible. * Better game controller support (new gamepads etc.) * Better networking support. The original game used IPX/SPX networking. * More network game types. For example full Internet tournaments are being planned. * Support for new graphics and audio. The current version of OpenOMF already supports loading alternate music files. Support for alternate sprites is coming after the game is otherwise working okay. * Enhanced tournament mode!

While OpenOMF is open source, the game and its assets are not. Fortunately, the developers released the game as freeware in 1999. It can be obtained from archive.org: https://archive.org/download/OneMustFall2097/OMF21cd-playable.ZIP

DateCommitCreditsLog message
ca3301e25b thfr Update to OpenOMF 0.8.6. NOTE: this changes the system location where the engine looks for the OMF 2097 files from /usr/local/share/openomf to /usr/local/share/openomf/resources. You may need to move the files manually.
It also doesn't seem to support running in a directory with the files anymore. Adjust README accordingly; including hint to use the OpenOMF resources environment variable.
