Striker StrikerI forgot to check the oil pressure
A few days ago I linked on the forums a blog post about old RTS games, and in that blog post I also talked about Settlers II. I linked to the new open source project, but didn't offer explanation because I couldn't install it.

I now found out how to do it, so for the Settler 2 nostalgics who want to replay the same game from 1996 at a higher resolution, smoother gameplay and on multiplayer with their friends, scroll down on this article.(the last subtitle) Read and follow the instructions. Enjoy ;)!

That means you are not interested. But thank you for your informative comment.

I know YOU are not lecturing me about formative comments, are you? really?!

Anyway, that is your blog?! it looks very nice i must say, though, i don't understand the hating on SC... SC is arguably the best (definitely the most commercially successful) rts of all time, and you totally dismiss?

There was an open source version of Theme Hospital in development that I would love to see completed. Sadly, it seems to have disappeared :(

edit:
oh wait, it seems to be in a playable beta 5!

Yes, that is my blog(since 2008).
I considered writing about starcraft is useless. Everybody knows about it :P.

@Huntey: Is that some kind of Sims?

Nope, Striker is in Europe too.

@Dimbark: It's like Windows themes. You go to a hospital and replace all signs and symbols with new designs and paint the walls a different colour.
