What software was used to create the binary translation?

Very playable. I'm close to getting to the final mission. Thanks a lot, M-HT! Just a single suggestion: you need to open the config file to adjust the volume of music versus sound fx. Is it possible to integrate this option into the settings dialog?

Absolutely superb job. I'd give 10 stars if it was possible. Thankyou :)

This works perfectly, and the controls are very smart and customizable too! I like very much how the mouse movements/R&L clicks are mapped! The music works with wildmidi and sdl_mixer. (Even the gold version of the game works well, but without music.) Thank you very much M-HT ! :)
