+Sauron Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Are there any aspiring Lynx developers out there? If so, post here. I'm getting the itch to try my hand and Lynx development again and would like to converse with a few people who are already trying their hand at it.

Songbird Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 I think it would be really cool to make a Lynx game some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sauron Posted March 29, 2002 Author Share Posted March 29, 2002 Hey, nice to see you here, Carl! I'm thinking of springing for some Lynx dev hardware sometime in the near future (after I buy me some BSG and ProSE, of course). Have any suggestions on what I should look for?

Songbird Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 The good news is you don't need a lot of dev hardware. The emulator is phenomonal for the Lynx, and is probably the best/cheapest way to start developing some code. Beyond that, the Champ Rally and SIMIS carts have BLL support built in, which means (with a custom cable which I haven't had in stock for almost a year now) you can download games from your PC to the 64KB of Lynx RAM. This is how I got my feet wet, um, 6 years (!) ago. I do have an Amiga 2000 with the Howard board, but rarely fire it up these days. Everything is on my PC.

+Sauron Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 Thanks for the info, everyone! Can you point me to who builds the custom BLL cables? I think I'm gonna have to place an order sometime soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Unfortunately, no one else does that I'm aware of. I'd like to get some more built, I'll check again soon to see if it's a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazreid Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 Hi guys I'm currently working as a designer on a new Jaguar project and wondered if there was anything similar going on in the Lynx world i could be apart of. The team i am working with is totally international and all of us working collectivly is great - anyone up for starting a similar project for Lynx?

Harry_Dodgson Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Darren: I wish you luck! I've seen many Lynx "group" projects started - It seems only the "individual" ones have actually produced a complete game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
