[REQ] Rollercoaster Tycoon
 
Is it possible to port this game on N900 ?

As i know is now open source (or abandonware - dunno).

Any voulentiers? :)

I really don't know how to do it, but this game can be interesting :)

There's Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe, if you're interested.

i'm not intrested in Transport Tycoon (booring :p ) Couple of years ago i've spent lots of hours playing RollerCoaster Tycoon and believe me, this game is BETTER than TTD :)

Probably not [easily] possible if there's no ARM version (and having played the series and loved them) I doubt there is sadly.

1. I do not believe it is legitimately abandoned, and it is not open source.
2. Even if it was, Rollercoaster Tycoon is famous for having been written entirely in x86 assembly language, so it would have to be completely rewritten.

Even when a software is seen as abandoned by many, there is still the possibility you don't have the right to download it freely according to the law

Abandonware or not, if you have the cd, you could pretty much do it.
( for yourself )
And even though having it, as Chris Sawyer said, 99% x86 and a lil bit C/C++, would be a pain, but not impossible to port, would take rather some time...
I just want to see someone magically having the source code of it...
What would be... a greater pain.
