README

Taradino

This is a port of Apogee's 3D action title Rise of the Triad, originally released in 1994. This port duplicates the functionality of the original game on modern operating systems, including Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.

Portability fixes include support for 64-bit and big-endian systems.

This port makes use of the Simple Direct Media Layer, or SDL, and an additional library named SDL_mixer. Optional OPL3/AdLib music synthesis is supported by using libADLMIDI.

Known Issues

  • Demos go out of sync.
  • No netplay support.
