Motivated by the results I got at getting EDuke32 to work on OSX PowerPC I thought it would be a nice thing to have this fun game on the IRIX platform as well. To get things done I am using an O2 R12k running at 270MHz with 512MB of main memory and a 18GB Fujitsu drive.

The aim is to get a working EDuke32 binary that runs the built-in Software and OpenGL renderers. Since HRP isn't working on OSX PowerPC yet there won't be any HRP support on IRIX as well.

After a few hours of fighting the source with the Nekoware GCC 4.3 compiler I got this one:

• EDuke32 sources and binary (Version 1.5.0svn 2009-03-13)

Dependancies are libSDL and libSDL_mixer of the Nekoware distribution.

I'll try to make a static binary soon…
