Lips of Suna has long been abandoned since Summer 2014, except for a brief period when Xenodora showed-up and made some changes in late 2016 (although it's been stalling again for many months since then). I'm still interested though, and I would contribute much to it if I had the coding skills, and believe me; I've tried. I have spent many hours before doing programming tutorials online so that I can contribute, but I had no success modifying the codebase.

I would really love for someone to update the C/C++ side of the codebase to upgrade the OGRE version from 1.9 to 1.10, and the Bullet version from 2.85 to 2.86. There must be someone around here that has done that before in other games.

I'm no longer able to compile it on Manjaro, and it appears to be because of the versions of OGRE and Bullet I have installed are too new. I know I could just download and manually install those old versions, but I feel like Lips of Suna is in need of an update to those versions anyway, to improve performance.

If you're feeling extra generous, you may also update the Blender exporter plugin to support the latest Blender, further upgrade the OGRE version to 2.0 & 2.1, and fix the finicky mouse controls.
