Hi all hmm i was wondering has anyone ever tried to possibly build Tribal's source code using lazarus? It saysit'll compile delphi programs to some extent maybe it could be a way of getting it working on linux. dunno though. too bad tribal is dead i really like it wish i knew delphi :)

There is more to it. Tribal IDE uses some toolkits which themselves are not available for lazarus.

I have sucessfully compiled the Tribal IDE code.. it is a complete component spaghetti system.

You HAVE to use Delphi 5, and I think there are roughly 10 different components you have to install, and some of the newer versioins give AVs on the same procedures.

Here is the thread at my version:

I have been recently thinking about taking another crack at it, but have 101 things that I need to finish first.

If there was enough interest, I would certaintlty work on it more.

Yeah i saw that it looks really interesting. I might have to try to buy a copy of delphi 5 somewhere and start learning it. Is there any way i could help with that project?
