Trap Runner full source code

[phx]

It took some time, because I wanted to wait until Trap Runner was physically distributed by Amiga Future, and then I nearly forgot about it. But here it is, the release of the complete Trap Runner V1.2 source text, to build everything from scratch. It includes source texts, graphics, music, tools, etc.:
http://server.owl.de/~frank/TrapRunner1_2.lha

As usual for my games, the build process should be portable, so you can build it on many different host systems. Initially the only dependancy is a working ISO-C99 compiler. The rest can be built from source.

Other tools needed (build from source);

• GNU-make
• vasmm68k_mot
• vlink

And the AmigaOS NDK 3.x assembler include files would be good to have. Makefile uses vbcc and Makefile.unix uses gcc to build the tools. The only variable you might have to change in your Makefile is ASINC, which defines the path to your AmigaOS assembler includes.

No license included. But hereby I release everything into public domain!
Have fun! Make Amiga games!

Successfully compiled and tested on OSx

Finished in 17h 03m 58s on the Amiga. Everything went smoothly.

For Windows and compiler w/o extra UNIX trappings:
Since the Solid Gold game some of the C tools have needed tweaking to make STDOUT binary. For encode to work properly STDIN must be made binary as well.

tools/encode 77 < password.bin > password.enc

File password.bin offset 0x16f when 0x1a is reached password.enc will be truncated there. The ADF looks good until going to the options menu. Then the Trap Runner debugger is called. I guess Celtic Heart worked by accident because of no ctrl-z. No appeal to change anything. When I see something that interests or surprises me, I just write feedback about it.

I love how this is so self-contained build-wise.

Thanks a million!

Respect, thanks a lot for sharing !

Oh, yes, I try to refrain from using stdin and stdout in future project tools. Although I never do any development under Windows myself, it hurts my claim that everything is 100% portable for cross-development.

Thanx phx, even though the full source is available for this game I still bought the physical copy. I thought it would be on Cd but I actually got a collectable floppy version which is cool. 3.5 floppy disks are getting harder to find in 2021.

You got this working on macOS?

Yes

From memory did not do extensive testing, but it complied, ran, and the the game started. I guess I ran the game in fs-uae

There are still copies available?

CD would be useless as the game starts out of the floppy disk's boot block using a track loader.

Sure: https://www.amigashop.org/product_in...roducts_id=289 I Should get this also as physical ... Tempting
