Why has no one pointed out he could code a new client, that doesn't require java?
Would that be illegal?

Wasn't there a client written in LISP (by boshaw?) once ?!?

No. It's just a lot to do. I doubt that anyone would do that for free. But it could be done.Rhakar wrote:Would that be illegal?

Re: Client that doesn't require java
He's usually able to *extend* the client with lisp at least, but I think the base is still Java. I might be wrong though, boshaw is pretty respectable.borka wrote:Wasn't there a client written in LISP (by boshaw?) once ?!?

"A Haven and Hearth experimental client alternative"
This is mainly reference going to a common lisp client from the java. It's not complete and there's no reason to do so at this point. Maybe later down the line with hafen i'll revive it and make it useful.

This one is for old haven. So it still works with the legacy server: http://i.imgur.com/z4nXIFA.jpg. But it's way incomplete to be fully playable. I stopped working on it when hafen was launched.shubla wrote:https://github.com/k-t/SharpHaven

And also, it requires .NET/Mono to play instead of Java.

Re: Client that doesn't require java
Which means even if it would work for hafen you'd still couldn't run it native on chromebook - you'd have to use i.e. crouton and a supported Linux Distri ...marvi wrote:And also, it requires .NET/Mono to play instead of Java.

Re: Client that doesn't require java
The java server can communicate with non-java clients? Interesting, although not surprising I guess. I might have to make a client now since all I know is python
