The Tain

Considering the projectmagma team of developers is currently at its core, 3 people, and considering Myth TFL took a team of 3 coders approximately 2 years to write, it'd probably be 2 years of solid coding. Day in, day out. For free. Yea right. Lol. For free? Where did you get that idea? Who said a...

Still no response from take 2? Getting them to agree with a deal that would see all profit going to them, would probably get us the best result. Are you volunteering to do all the work of porting Myth to iOS to put money into Take2's pockets? Because I'm not. Good lord, that's the worst possible re...

@GodzFire - I'm a 'facilitator' or that's what my job description says which sounds awfully weaselly. I'm a part-time business advisor to the 'digital content' sector here in Northern Ireland which includes a lot of iOS and games cos. I own a couple of businesses and I've made a few decent contacts ...

@Capitol - you'd have to cleanly reverse-engineer everything. Not one shred of code could be used otherwise you'd be liable. You couldn't use the same story, images, sounds. Dwarves wouldn't be throwing molotovs, you wouldn't be able to have Scottish barbarians. @vinylrake - I don't know how much IP...

Hi Vinylrake - oh I'm not disputing that. It's whomever you have to find WITHIN Take2 who will take responsibility for doing something with it. The impression I got from my speaking with them was that they varied from "Do we own that" to "Yes, we own that" and from the latter to ...

Hi folks, Did this go anywhere? I discovered the impenetrable layers of Take2 this time last year when I made an honest attempt to find out who was able to take responsibility for Myth II. I've since 'calmed down' and I'm considering helping put together a Kickstarter to fund the development of a &q...

Aha, let me revive that conversation then.

I've been sidetracked in creating a RTT clone

Hi guys,

I'm not a developer so I reckon my part in this is a bit vague. In essence, I need some estimate - from the people who would know - what the development effort is in putting together a clone. You guys have done it all - built bits and rebuilt other bits.

I'll share what I can find out.

It's the belief of 'permission from Take 2' that I'm interested in.

Did you all see this, posted in January of this year? http://www.soldak.com/forums/showpost.php?p=9612&postcount=26 "Some of these will actually start later in the year or are as I find time doing them (i.e. the Myth Franchise stuff. This is a fan of the franchise pitching his hat in with t...

Hi Myrd, Thanks for the reply. My son (9) loves playing Myth II. I really appreciate the work you're doing. My interest is seeing it on the iPad platform. I've got some friends in the games industry (just not Take2) so I'm going to tap them to see if they can get us a human. My intent was that if it...

My mistake. Still - Classic Mac, Windows and Mac OS X.

I don't think John or Wil would be interested in doing it the "wrong" way.

I think he means you guys.

You're maintaining Linux, Windows and Mac OS X.
