Leoncini Ports Half-Life to Nokia N95 at 30 FPS, Adding Dedicated Servers
1 articles · Updated · Yahoo · Jun 8
Summary
30 FPS gameplay is now running on a Nokia N95, with Dante D. Leoncini saying the Half-Life port already supports all weapons and dedicated servers.
Bluetooth mouse-and-keyboard support is working on the 2007 handset, though Leoncini said some slowdown remains and a fix for the main cause is in progress.
The Symbian S60v2 project is publicly available on Leoncini's website, where users can install the engine, copy original game files, and also play via the phone's own keypad.
332 MHz CPU and 64 MB to 128 MB of memory put the N95 surprisingly close to late-1990s PC specs, helping explain how Valve's 1998 shooter can run on the device.
Full-game compatibility is still being tested, while Leoncini is working on LAN/network play, single-player AI improvements, and further graphical polish.
