Free churches chicken software for linux

Scons-chicken adds support for SCons to compile Chicken based projects.

Scons-chicken aims to be as simple as possible and as automatic as possible supporting all possible features of Chicken, like making and using extensions, generating the .setup files, etc.

Scons-chicken is released under the GPL, General Public License.

Crossfire TRT project is an advancement of the crossfire multi-user RPG game. Unlike the original project, it focuses mainly on stability and playability, but also adds modern technology such as map scripting, Perl server extensions, asynchronous I/O, higher resolution graphics, and better client support.
Main features:
- Death is not permanent, and you can get back all lost stats and experience by playing a game in a special place named Nimbus. You are teleported there when you die and you have to play a game (currently minesweeper) to get out.
- Friendly fire is disabled and playerkilling is also modified. You can only kill another player when you and the other player are hostile. To become hostile, you have to visit the church of Gorokh in Scorn and talk to the priest. To become peaceful again, visit the curch of Valriel and talk to its priest.
- Invitation of other players to where you are is possible with the invite command. You have to solve the invitor quest (see below in maps) to be able to use the command.
- You can follow other players with the follow command when you stand next to the player you want to follow.
- Pet monsters and summoned creatures will not stand in the way of other party members, making it bearable to play with summoning skills in a party.
- Map and graphics artists are working on improved graphics and new maps and quests.
- A new currency: the Royalty. Its worth 100 Platinum and is made of paper. (The bank script was completly rewritten in Perl)
- The communication commands have been rewritten in Perl and an ignore command was added.
- Trade shops have been implemented in Perl, which allows the player to trade items when they are offline.
- Big 64x64 faces and tiles have been introduced, which have a higher detail level than the old 32x32 tiles, and can be used with the CFPlus client.
Enhancements:
- optimised event invocation (non-wanted events can now be skipped with 4-5 inlined instructions).
- complete rewrite of town_portal: it now creates a portal to the "nearest" town only, travel is only possible to the town and back, anybody can use it (also removes one of the remaining syncpoints in the server).
- complete rewrite of the range/attack skill slot system: there are now two slots, one for combat, one for ranged attacks.
- introduce the concept of a current weapon (either a ranged or a combat weapon/skill/tool) and switch between them as needed.
- rewrite bow code so bows get more useful: apply damage, attacktype and other stats to the arrows and treat bows as weapons. also rebalance the missile weapons skill so its damage increases with level.
- rewrite the complete player speed logic: weapon_speed now works as documented and there are no unnatural speed boosts.
- implement a utility - cfutil - that simplifies arch and map installation, replacing the old collect scripts and simplying deployment by scaling and cutting faces as required.
- simplify the map protocol extensively by taking advantage of missing bigfaces, speeding up map generation immensely.
- implement inherit keyword allowing archetypes to inherit from other archetypes.
- rationalise archetype, region and treasurelist file format into a single file format and make them reloadable asynchronously.
- make the worldmap, facedata (smoothing, faces, magicmap) reloadable at runtime.
- implement 64x64 faceset support.
- implement fxixsx protocol that saves a lot of bandwidth over the old image/face/smooth packets and allows images > packetsize, incremental and background transfers.
- implement a bandwidth-saving smoothing protocol that works on a face basis as opposed to a mapspace basis.
- the server can now rate-limit image uploads to not exceed a certain (client-configurable) speed while guarenteeing full freedom of movement.
- implement new ex command to request item descriptions.
- implement new msg command for in-game messages with meta information (using xml).
- enforce utf-8 for all text messages.
- added micropather (not used yet).
- many, many bugfixes.

Rascan is a rewrite of Inter7s simscan. RASCAN will provide you with the following:
- Will (optionally) check for virus using ClamAV
- Will (optionally) pass your mail through SpamAssassin
- Will (optionally) add a footer to your messages using altermime
The goals of this project are:
- Make it more runtime configurable, instead of having so many compile-time options.
- Make it simpler, removing functionality I didnt use
- Add a little extra, specifically a chance to add footers to messages using altermime
- Make it use bstrlibs string routines, because programming C I am a chicken.
To use rascan, you need a qmail installation with the QMAILQUEUE and qmail-queue-custom-error patches.

Crystality Plugin consists of XMMS plugin and stdin/stdout plugin. It was written for realtime remastering of sound from mp3 files.
You will need a reasonably good stereo and a good ear to notice quality
improvement, otherwise this is not for you.

This plugin tries to patch mp3 format flaws, not a poor audio hardware! Yes, you should be able to hear well enough (sorry) - for some of my friends plugin is a cool thing, while the others does not hear nothing but echo and stereo expander (well, you will hear every effect if you set it to the maximum, but it will not sound nice).

Crystality was written for 16bit 44.1kHz stereo sound and may give strange results
with other sound formats.

Damian Hodgkiss sent me a quick port for Winamp 2.x. I have not tried it yet, but you can get it (cr-quick-winamp-port.zip).

This plugin does mainly four things (and some minor tricks):

1. Adds some sounds in very high frequency range. Most of the mp3s in The Net are flawed with a 16(15?) kHz cutoff. Even these ones compressed at high bitrates. This spectrum hole is audible and very unpleasant. This plugin helps a bit. Old mp3s made from the vinyl or the magnetic tape may also sound better with these "steroids". For old mp3s youll probably need to set filter to 0.1.

2. Adds some even harmonic distortions (actually nonlinearity), that sounds nice. Valve amps introduce even harmonic distortions (although differnt way) Look at audiophile pages for more info (well, mp3 format is not an audiophile stuff at all, but... welcome to the real world...).

3. Adds simple, but nice 3D echo (concert hall or church like). Most of echo plugins sounds too hard and aggresively for me. This one does not.

4. Extends stereo.

USING:

There are currently two versions of plugin - XMMS plugin and stdin/stdout. Stdin/out plugin is completly independent of XMMS plugin. It even stores its configuration in a separate file (~/.crystalityrc). Stdin/out plugin is alpha code, so some features are missed. You cannot reopen configuration dialog after closing without restarting plugin, there are no "save config", "load config" buttons. Configuration is loaded automatically on startup and saved on exit, either on normal finish or ^C. You can disable GUI with -g option (useful in scripts).

Because this plugin adds some sounds at high frequencies, you will probably need to decrease treble level on your amplifier. Plugin does not perform normalization, so you should slightly decrease signal level in XMMS equalizer (NOT volume slider on the main panel). Setting sliders to the maximum is generally a bad idea (well, except the filter, where that setting is useful).

PERFORMANCE:

It eats about 15% of CPU on my AMD K6-2/400 and optimization is still possible, this is not highly optimized code.

INSTALLATION:

Distribution contains binary version of XMMS plugin library and stdin/stdout plugin executable (Linux i586, glibc 2.1.3). You may copy plugin library file (libcrystality.so) into XMMSs Effect directory and executable (crystality-stdio) to /usr/local/bin or any location you prefer. For default locations simply type:

make install

and thats it.
You may also build crystality from the source.

make buildinstall

typed as root in the source directory should be all you have to do.

This plugin was my first small step in gtk programming, so dont expect any wonders, GUI is actually a quick hack to hardcoded settings. I am not a GUI programmer.

scnANNlib is a Sentinel Chicken Networks Artificial Neural Network Library.

Documentation on what is what can be found in README.files. Currently, the API specification and documentation can only be found in the source of the header files (in lib/), but this will be improved in later releases.

If you have questions about how to use the Makefiles, see README.make.

For more information about the development project, and to obtain newer versions of the library, visit http://www.sentinelchicken.org/ .

Wormux project is free software clone of this game concept. Though currently under heavy development, it is already very playable, with lots of weapons (Dynamite, Baseball Bat, Teleportation, etc.).

There are also lots of maps available for your battling pleasure! Wormux takes the genre to the next level, with great customisation options leading to great gameplay.

There is a wide selection of teams, from the Aliens to the Chickens. Also, new battlefields can be downloaded from the Internet, making strategy an important part of each battle.

Though two human players are currently needed to play (unless you have a split personality) the creation of artificial players and network play are future goals. So, start downloading today, and fight to become king of the garden!
