[comp.sources.games.bugs] Looking for SDI Author: Mark Weiser

I just found a copy of a game I remember being really fun on a sun: SDI.
You know, the one like missle command but you get x-ray lasers and rocks
from space besides bombs ?

Well I am trying to bring up the game on a sun386i under OS 4.0.2. The game
was written for 3/XXX and OS 3.X.X. I am running into problems. If anybody
has SDI up and running on OS 4.X.X or has ported it to a sun386i, let me
know. The version I have is labeled "Version 189 of ballast" I got this
version off of wuarchive.wustl.edu.

I have ported code to the sun386i before and the difficulity may depend on
how "advanced" the programming style is. There are basic problems with
graphics because of little endian vs big endian problems.
