Free discs unlimited software for linux

Unlimited Simulator project is a general purpose simulator.
Unlimited Simulator is not a game. Its a basis to create whatever simulations you want, from games to scientific simulations.
You only have to worry about physics, controls and how the world looks like. It can be at the same time a car simulator, a spaceships war game, or a scientific simulation.
While you can do these things on their own, Unlimited Simulator provides the ability to do all three at once. It allows interaction of completely different kinds of clients, thus achieving unprecedent realism and complexity.
Main features:
- multiplayer: many players by internet or two in your computer;
- create your own vehicles, tracks, terrains, sounds, objects;
- vehicles may have their own physical simulation functions, and interact with the game, creating new objects, destroying others. They can fly or float or move underwater; they can be animals, or surrealistic creations. You create.
- track can contain structures as loops, bridges, banked curves, and anything you can do with polygons;
- creating a track can be done DRAWING on the terrain (not implemented yet);
- objects can be animated and intelligent!
- everything is modular: this means almost all the stuff is plugable! No need to recompile the code;
- last, but not least: GPLed!
Enhancements:
- big debugging in ulengine/primitives.c. Several allocation problems solved.
- review of network code: structs separated in a new header, shared/net.h, and other improvements in code itself.
- review of client plugin format (what functions, names, etc).
- wrappers for the not-so-standard standard C variable types in config.h.
- cosmetic changes in some places, specially ulengine.h.
- BIG debugging in ulengine/project.c and ulengine/graphic.c. Only a billion or so bugs left.
- improved ulengine/demo.c; tests now include graphic functions.
- fixed two small bugs in drawHLine due to rounding.
- added a new projection system. Not tested yet.
- graphics test phase started: drawPixel, drawHLine, drawLine, drawFlatTri and drawShadedTri are working.
- modified POLY_UL structure: SCREENP_UL *projected field was deleted. This field is really unecessary, and deleting it saves 2*sizeof(int) bytes for each vertex. Projections are not individually saved anymore (why should they be after all?). See ulengine/project.c:projectP() to see how projected points are handled.
- added ulengine/image.c, to handle image operations.
- added ulengine/effects.c.
- textures support implemented.
- several small optimizations in ulengine/graphic.c.
- work in the server communications system.

Intellidiscs is a Remake of Tron: Deadly Discs for the classic Intellivision console. Its also one of the few, if not the first, Tron freeware games that has nothing to do with light-cycles.

Basically, you run around in an arena fighting off bad guys with your disc. There are four different varieties of bad guy, and one of them has three different varieties of disc. More difficult enemies appear as your score increases, with the most difficult showing up if you can reach 1,000,000 points.

Bad guys enter through doors on the sides of the arena. You can jam these doors open by either hitting them with your disc, or by running into them. If you jam open doors that are opposite each other, you can run in one side and come out the other. This is very important to your survival.

If you jam enough doors, eventually a recognizer will be dispatched to fix them. If you can hit the recognizer when its eye is open, it will stop fixing the doors and leave the arena. Plus, you get lots of points for this.

You can take three hits before you die, and every hit makes you slower! You will eventually recover from damage, regaining your speed as well. Touching the recognizer kills you instantly, so dont do it.

Default controls are the familiar WASD to move, and the outer keys of numpad (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, non-Mac users turn Num Lock on!) throw your disc in any of eight directions. If you press one of the throw keys while your disc is in flight, it will return to you. Discs are harmless when returning. If you move away from your disc as it is flying back, it will never catch up to you, you must stop and catch it. All of the controls can be changed from the main menu.

X11 Disk Activity Feedback shows disk activity by animating the X11 cursor.

It provides a visual feedback of local disk activity by changing the default X11 mouse pointer to an animated wheel.

Installation:

Untar and change into the new directory and:

# xmkmf
# make
# make install

As the name already suggests, ncdu is an NCurses version of the famous old du unix command.

NCurses Disk Usage provides a fast and easy interface to your harddrive. Where is your disk space going? Why is your home directory that large? ncdu can answer those questions for you in just a matter of seconds!

Cdwrite is the shell for creation of data and audio disks, including compilations. It allows to use pregaps and recognizes indices.
The shell needs mkisofs and cdrecord for data and cdparanoia, cdda2wav, cdrdao, and -- optionally -- lame for audio.
Enhancements:
- This release allows you to manage not only CD but also DVD discs (writing, erasing, formatting, and blanking).
- It includes a bugfix for the invalid "create data image" option and a man page.
- The RPM package is now better suited to the valid standards.
