EQ on a Z80

[blondeattk]

due to the rise of a new computing platform in europe(primarily)...we are looking to port a version of eq over to it.

This is the resurrection of the humble 8bit computer....https://www.specnext.com

In reality this machine is a 3 processor computer, as it has an interface which connects to a pi zero. Thre is a gui in development for the machine, although it could be 4months before the alpha version emerges.

if anyone has coding exp and wants to help them.....https://www.facebook.com/groups/772267459595751

the initial port of eq would probably look more like might and magic 6, rather than a full blown 3d world. 3d graphics on the next are still rather esoteric and not yetfull understood.

Hope this project isof interest, especially to european members who recall the spectrum.

(the next currently has the same power as a maxed out amiga 1200)

imo a version of eq can be achieved that is equivalent of EverQuest Online Adventures eg the console version.
