Author:       NovaCoder
Uploader:     novacoder yahoo co uk
Type:         game/strat
Version:      0.96.4.08
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1.0
Distribution: Aminet

Overview:

An open-source remake of Dune II.

A faithful remake of Westwood's 1992 classic. Lead the Atreides, Harkonnen, 
or Ordos across Arrakis with modern enhancements.


Requirements:

1) An RTG Amiga.
2) Workbench must be using a 32-bit pixel format screen mode.
3) 68060 processor or better (PiStorm recommended).
4) AHI installed and configured.
5) CAMD library installed and configured for native MIDI playback.
6) A copy of the PC game data files (version 1.07).


Features:

 * SDL2 based port (my first!)
 * MIDI support (GM/MT-32)
 * OGG compressed audio support 
 * Fullscreen and window mode support
 
 
Configuration Options:

You must specify a stack of at least 300,000.
You will need to enable your CAMD MIDI device using 
the 'DuneLegacy.ini' file and select the xmi music player.


Performance Considerations:

1) Fast File System isn't, use PFS3 instead.
2) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow.
3) If you are using Paula try using the 'FAST' audio AHI modes.
4) Playing compressed audio or video on a real 68k CPU will be very slow.


Limitations:

1) No network multiplayer support.
