That's already the case (I didn't mean to imply otherwise). I now develop games completely independent of Zillions. That is to say that I don't need Wed, 30 Dec 2009 20:05:17 GMT Dave http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/584 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/584 Whatever the details; a development process that doesn't require owning or using zillions, or writing any .zrf is desirable.

[if you only had to deal with one language and one runtime.]   Are you referring to the "minimal zrf" (ie. what ends up Wed, 30 Dec 2009 06:10:30 GMT Dave http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/582 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/582 Axiom would be a much more attractive place to start a project if you only had to deal with one language and one runtime. Since the pieces are already in hand, Wed, 30 Dec 2009 00:58:17 GMT Greg http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/581 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/581 The game engine has been officially released for some time and is available as a Zillions submission titled "Axiom Development Kit". The standalone Axiom Tue, 29 Dec 2009 22:37:04 GMT Dave http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/580 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/580 I read the thread for Axiom without Zillions, but it seems to peter out without any release of the standalone engine. These also seems to be a consensus that Tue, 29 Dec 2009 17:28:41 GMT Dave Dyer http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/579 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/579 Thanks, that's all pretty clear. I got here from downloading "Adaptoid" and thinking it looked and acted like a Zillions game. I've owned Zillions for a long Tue, 29 Dec 2009 07:03:43 GMT Greg Schmidt http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/578 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/578 [Can you clarify the run time relationship between Zillions and axiom? ]   Sure.   Axiom began life as a plug-in DLL (axiom.dll) which works with Zillions.  Tue, 29 Dec 2009 05:01:11 GMT Dave http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/577 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/577 Can you clarify the run time relationship between Zillions and axiom? My recollection is that Zillions has a free version that runs some games, but some games Mon, 28 Dec 2009 03:16:39 GMT Greg http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/576 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/576 Hi, I recently finished "Adaptoid", a game created by Néstor Romeral Andrés and it's now available for download. I understand the game was a hit at Essen Fri, 13 Nov 2009 06:41:45 GMT burkemat http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/574 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/574 ... Maybe I'm missing something, but isn't using Vala for the front end a completely separate issue from getting axiom.dll to run under Linux? You'll still Fri, 13 Nov 2009 04:59:36 GMT modnarmai http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/573 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/573 ... Following up on the post of Axiom being able to work without Zillions, I would like to code a version that runs natively under Linux. ... It seems to me Fri, 13 Nov 2009 04:37:56 GMT modnarmai http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/572 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/572 ... More good news. So only the front-end for Axiom needs the .NET system. It is being to look like I am going to able to do this.

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. ZoG runs (or at least, sort of runs) under Linux if you use Wine. But that's not what I have in mind. I don't want to Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:47:41 GMT Greg http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/570 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/axiom-system/message/570 Hi, You are asking a really good question for which I probably do not have a great answer. For starters, I recommend reading the introduction to the
