I was wondering...
Could Slab6 be ported to mobile devices?

The source code is already in the .rar file, so I was wondering if it ould be ported to the android.

Ninja, I don't think it is possible as it depends on the code. Android applications are usually web based like html5 or flash or java based i think slab6 is written in c++and/or C though there are projects which enable using C++ on android it would tough and complicated. I won't explain further as that is what only programmers would understand. And it is a quite old program..

Well, remaking it is always a possibility.
It doesn't seem like a very complicated program, but I don't really know much about this stuff anyway.

Slab6 is hanging out in my Voxlap Port. I plan on rebasing it on voxlap eventually. From there somebody actually could recompile it to run on android. But I am not redoing the UI so touch is somebody else's problem.

C++ Works on Android, Minecraft Pocket Edition is written on C++

It certainly seems possible. I was just wondering this on IRC the other day. It would necessarily even need to be the full slab6, would it? What I mean is that what people seem to be looking for with this would be a simple mobile editor for gun mods that could then be exported to KV6 for use on Ace of Spades right?

It certainly does seem like a neat idea though. You could be somewhat productive while being bored somewhere, like on a bus or a train.

It might be possible considering the fact that Minecraft has been modified for iOS. Although, it would take up a whole crapload of battery.

Why is this in the software/tools section? It should be in general discussion. Software/tools is in my view for stuff that's actually released.

Lensman/duffPaddy said he got removed some windows-only stuff from slab6 and voxed.

For GODS sake please do not re-make slab6.

Reasons:
[*]Really bad rendering[/*]
[*]Only 256 color supported[/*]
[*]Worst pallet tools ever[/*]
[*]Worst Keyboard layout EVER[/*]
[*]Mouse does not work properly if you look straight up or down[/*]

Edit: Nice bbcodes forum guys!

Seriously people, if you have free time, try Unity and make an editor there. The matrices Slab6 makes are really not that complicated.

Every time I use Slab6 I want to stab a pencil in my eye.
