I'd PAY for Jornada 720 version!!!

[Brian]

This is the fastest WinCE device on the market today, and with the keyboard, ARM processor and 2D graphics acceleration games are simple and fun to play. I'd PAY MONEY for a version of Quake for this system!!<br>PLEASE!!!<br><br>Brian<br>

[Grant]

And so would many other I am sure. This device would make Pocket Quake rock!! Well done, and here's hoping the 720 gets a go at it. Thanks.

[Chris Edwards]

While, I'm sure that since it's now open source that ports will start popping up for all different pocket pc's.

Well actually a lot of guys should have paid the developer but they all lied of course. Before pocketquake was released a lot of guys started saying they would pay the first one to release it.<br>And they didn't.<br>but what the heck.

[Chris Edwards]

Well, if anyone wants to still pay the developer they can. I will set up a credit card payment thing within the week.

Hi,<br><br>Not all lied.  Don't forget me, I'm the one who pledged $200 - and I'm the original person who posted.<br><br>Dan - please let me know when the cheque arrives in the mail.  Please scan it and post it if you'd like <br><br>Thanks,<br>Mark Rejhon

Well, due to the GPL and Quake being copyrighted by id Dan could not legally sell this, but donations to Dan East c/o PocketMatrix.com would be fine

[Dan East]

BTW, my wife continually tells me to quit working on this because I'm not being reimbursed. So if any donations were received, my wife might let me work on Pocket Quake more often. <br><br>Dan East

Actually I could sell it. It is just rather stupid to sell a piece of software when you have to release the source code of it for free (or for a "reasonable distribution cost" ). However, it would have been totally legal for me to port Quake to Pocket PC, while keeping all the Pocket PC specific routines, such as the display, skin code, control input, compression, etc, in a separate library that Quake would depend on. As that dll would not be based on Quake source, I would not have to release it. Thus I could have charged for that DLL...<br><br>Dan East<br>Last modification: Dan East - 03/14/01 at 05:23:54

Hey Dan, what about the $200 check from Mark Rejholieoliaodhfd, or someone. Sorry, I forgot your name.

Ah, but try to explain the broader perspective:<br><br>This is a project that ANY programmer should be happy to have on a resume. How many people can claim they successfully ported Quake to another platform. Now, how many people can claim they ported it to PocketPC?<br><br>My wife an I own a technical recruiting company and we see alot of technical resumes. VERY few make me stop and say "WOW, this person worked on <enter cool project here>?".<br><br>"ported Quake to PocketPC/Windows CE 3.0 (ARM and MIPS)" is something substantial to put on a resume.<br><br>But money is always a good incentive, too.

[Dan East]

I don't need it for a resume, at least not anytime soon. At least my name pops up more often when I search the internet now. <br>I've not received anything from anyone.<br><br>Dan East

[Dan East]

I wouldn't mind id Software providing me with free registered copies of all their software titles for my effort in this project. All it would cost them is the packaging and shipping. <br><br>Dan East

So, mark redjkorn or whoever stiffed you dan? after all those posts about claiming your check. hmmm, it seems fishy to me~
