Abandoned?

[ghost]

Hey, I'm not a contributor or something like this, I am closer of a potential user.
I am giving a look since months ago and now I realize that the last update was made 8 months ago.
Did you guys abandoned this project? It would be a great loss, the Stronghold series are one of these games that would benefit a lot of an open-source game engine re-implementation.

Don't give up now.

I cannot speak for the creator of sourcehold and sourcehold (you are right, the last commit is from some time ago), but the Sourcehold Maps Project is quite active currently.

@Parnosys The maps project is indeed active. Although understanding the map file format is not crucial, it will be much easier for any (future) re-implementation to get running. I don't know any details about the game engine re-implementation itself, we will have to ask the main devleoper, @metalvoidzz

That's fine, I wanted to be sure there were still living beings on this project. :))
There's still too much open-source projects of this kind that are abandoned as much as time goes on, and that's really pityful. Wanted to be sure it wasn't the case for such an interesting project like Sourcehold.

Will there be support for Stronghold 2? At least in the distant future

[J-T-de]

Well, this project is aimed to recreate Stronghold1, and maybe extending to Crusader1. However, the technology behind the 2D-Titles and the 3D-Titles, like Stronghold 2, is really significant. So I suppose Sourcehold 2 would be a different project...
