Cafu Engine

I was looking at some really old news posts of yours, and I saw that Ca3DE used to run on DOS. I thought it might be fun to have a play around with it in Dosbox. Do you still have a copy of it?

Dear Stephen,

while I indeed have some very old backups (no executables, source code only, even one from 1997 (!), using direct VESA LFB (linear framebuffer) access in C and some assembly, with my own software rasterizer), I doubt that anything from it still works, at least not without serious modifications.
After all, the code was written for different hardware and - above all - different operating systems, and I honestly don't know if with the recent Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / 7, even in compatibility mode, you can still directly manipulate e.g. the VESA hardware registers.

It should have no problems running in DosBox. It's a lot of fun playing old games like Doom and Duke Nukem 2 in it... I thought it would be interesting to see where Ca3DE came from as well.

Hmmm. Ok, when I get to my office today, I'll look what backups I have. Maybe there is even one with executables.
