Hello everyone.

I'm happy to announce the release of VPA-Linux, a port of the classic VPA client that runs on any Linux distribution without requiring DosBox/DOSEmu.

It includes a bit-exact PHost combat viewer (replacing the old DOS-only PVCR.EXE), all running natively on X11/Wayland.

It's available for download at https://github.com/promano7/vpa-linux

If you encounter any bugs or problems while running it, please let me know. Thank you.

I also want to thank Stefan for his code to get the PHost combat viewer integrated into VPA-Linux, and for the great help his File Format List provided for programming for VGA-Planets.

Hello. I'm having trouble accessing github, so could you post VPA-linux on another website or this one?

Hi.

I can't attach files to this post, but Stefan can upload it to his site if he wants.

Or send me a private message with your e-mail and I'll send you there.

Do you want the binaries, the source code or both?

Thank you.

We'll work about that, but be patient because I have to vendorize many ptcgraphs units and it requieres time, and we are talking about a program of DOS era with 4:3 monitors and native resolution of 640x480.

Thank you for your feedback!

I've already made the current move in VPA-linux

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
