Hi everyone,

I have juste read that article :
http://www.numerama.com/magazine/19967- ... -ipad.html

So i imagine me and my child playing with 3D printer model of Karts from STK on Ipad or Android tablets on STK maps !

For the 2024 roadmap ???

Thanks again for all the work done for this game.

For now iPad is not possible because Apple rejects GPL projects as far as I know For Android this would be difficult too because Android uses Java. But who knows, maybe someone will make a port using Android NDK!

Well, starting from Android 2.3 (or so) you can create apps with plain C++ AFAIK (so, without a Java base).

Ooh - but we'd have to hit version 1 before even thinking about this; but hopefully Android 2.3 will be out then too

It *is* out already... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_%2 ... _system%29

Ohok - the way it was worded confused me. Coolz!

Main problem are the current dependencies, most of the existing code won't be easy to port. Java is not a problem, you can and should use both Java and C++, but I fear that porting all the existing code to the Android platform may be very hard/time consuming. I actually thought about it but never got around to see the existing code and what I need to port to the Android NDK.

The determining point on the feasibility of porting to Android is the port of Irrlicht to Android, which seems to exist in beta stage: http://gitorious.org/irrlichtandroid/pages/Home.
