Posted version 0.99j, Linux version and SDL Windows version


Post Apocalyptic Petra version 0.99j is now available.

This version completes the SDL support to add audio and fixes wall texture loading under Linux. Also adds two additional Windows executables that use SDL. The sdlpetra.exe executabe might be the smoothest version for modern Windows that cannot run winpetra.exe due to lack of 8bit DirectDraw support.

Since the Linux binaries need a special archive for the executable bit, i have uploaded a separate version of the game as the Petra099jLinux.tar.xz file. This contains the same data files as the other version so if you just want to try the game under Linux you can use that. Note that your distribution must have SDL 1.2 installed since the archive does not include that (distributions may make minor modifications to the library to better work under their environment). If you are using Debian or a Debian-based distribution, like Ubuntu, Mint, elementaryOS, etc, you need to install the sdl1.2debian package.

Sadly this is the first version that the release zip doesn't fit in a floppy disk because of the three extra files (sdlpetra.exe, sglpetra.exe and sdl.dll) :-/. Though if the archive is converted to RAR or 7z it does fit, but then it isn't easy to open it from a DOS machine.
