snowman, you can use archive.org to see the page that Weebo referenced.
Found the following screenshot on that site: http://web.archive.org/web/19980425120927/http://corpheaven.warzone.com/sshot01.jpgI’ll try to see if I have any old screenshots.
Should we look at packaging the server and client separately? May include an installer for ease of use?
I’ve been talking CodeHammer history with Chris Pointon, one of the original CodeHammer employees, on Twitter. I can ask him or James Everard about copyrights on these assets.
Nikita does suggest keeping a record of where assets originate. We could go down this route.
Nikita, any additional info that you can share would be helpful.
Gotcha, I have compiled the sourceforge version and noticed some similarities; however, I noticed that there were some key differences such as SDL and the main menu being displayed through the graphics engine versus our current Windows Dialog box model.
Faix, we have been resolving some of the outstanding bugs and implementing dialogs to allow players to connect to a specified game server.
Contributing has been a pleasure. I have been spending time reviewing the code and hopefully documenting the correct logic. I am hoping that the documentation will lead to further development.
@Deceth, originally, I am a Corporate Heaven player that played very little of Battle City during Codehammer’s reign; therefore, I feel like this is the only connection that I have to former Corporate Heaven community. I have followed the Battle City community as it has attempted to revive the game. My objective for contributing to Battle City is to strengthen my knowledge in the technologies and mechanics surrounding games. Battle City seems like a suitable project that I provide worthy input and code commits meanwhile achieve my objective. If my contributions kindle some player activity then it is icing on the cake.
