It was completable since addition to the trunk. :) But I think you could forget about it.</blockquote><div><br>The fact that a game is completable was never the main issue here. Yes, it's cool that you did this automated Assembly to C conversion, but the end result is clearly not C++, and certainly NOT what all of the other engines are. Automated assembly converters are not what this project is about. Our aim is to rewrite original game engines into clean and readable C++... and dreamweb in its current state is not C++, it's pseudo-assembly. The fact that the game is completable doesn't change this.<br>

<div><br>A lot of people have praised you for your idea of this automated conversion script. But, the end result, although better than the original Assembly code (but without comments) is not what is expected in this project. Our "mission" is what makes us what we are... otherwise ScummVM's whole code could be about platform games running on toasters, or it could all be in Assembly... why bother to write everything in C++ when we can just use the original assembly? We have an aim, and we stick to it, otherwise we're not a project, but a big blob of messy code.<br>

<div>Excuse me, but this is blatant trolling and I really don't feel like starting a flame war with you. You have an attitude problem here, and please accept it. We want a rewritten engine in C++, not half-baked Assembly code. Calling other people names really doesn't help.<br>

But clearly, the current state of the engine is far from complete, and no, the MAIN work (i.e. the Assembly -> C++ conversion) has not been done.<br>

</blockquote><div>You lost your motivation? Why? Because we didn't want to have Assembly-like C code in our tree, created by an automated tool? The engine in its current state is not maintainable, and this has been mentioned in the past. You wanted to have the code supported in this state, which can't be done, and then you got bored of doing the actual conversion. It was you who lost your motivation without reason, as you did something and expected everyone else to applaud, pat you on the back and accept it without disagreement. Once you saw that this code couldn't be supported in its current state, you decided not to do anything about it and let someone else do the real conversion. This is what Bertrand has been trying to do, and you never helped him in this at all. <br>
</div></div><br>Anyway, I'm sorry that you felt insulted and decided to leave, but you have an ego problem here, and your attitude here does not help at all. Please try to be more cooperative in the future, and don't assume that everyone will agree to your ideas all the time, otherwise you'll be living in a dream world, and it's time you snapped out of it.<br>
