swiki page(s) for Croquet

Whilst looking to improve those screenshot pages on the swiki I found the croquet page (http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2901); not a single one of the external links still works. opencobalt.org and opencroquet.org are gone.

I think the swiki page for 'Croquet on Linux' (http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2904) is redundant too. Is there anything at all still valid for croquet? Has anyone kept it running in current Squeak?

Re: swiki page(s) for Croquet

Hi Tim,

We are using croquet in Immersive Terf: www.3dicc.com and we are in the process of updating to the new version of squeak. It's not open source. David is still developing it: https://croquet.studio/ that too is closed. There may be others that are supporting the base code for open source development.

All the best,

Ron Teitelbaum

Hi Tim,

It looks like Nikolai is supporting it on the new version. http://forum.world.st/ANN-Open-Croquet-for-Squeak-5-2-32bit-release-td5087739.html

All the best,

Ron

Hello Tim,

Yes, I had a success on partly restoring of Open Croquet onto Squeak 5.2 (https://blog.krestianstvo.org/en/open-croquet-for-squeak-6/). Source code is also available on Git, by using Squot https://github.com/NikolaySuslov/croquet-squeak.
So, one can run some of the same demos, that historical screenshots could be found at the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croquet_Project.

As for current Squeak 5.3 release, I'm steel in the process of testing Open Croquet on it.

Croquet has already a long history and I thinking, that it is quit important to keep information for all development stages, it is passed through also. Every Croquet version based on Squeak VM/Image pair has it's own unique features worth of exploration.

Also, there are lot of videos on David A. Smith's YouTube channel with Croquet demos from the "future" (https://croquet.studio/), now and the past, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOZPW8l85eI

Best regards,
Nikolai

Excellent news for both cases.

If either of you could spend a moment to add a screenshot or two to
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2901 it would be helpful. Or email me a few favourite pics and I'll do the edit.

Hi Nicolay

I am interested in porting Croquet to Squeak on 64 bit (I run linux).

I have attempted to install your 32 bit stuff and that did not work.

If you could please point me to where I should start on this task I would very much appreciate it.

Reverse engineering Croquet is a huge task and I don't have the time for it now, but for grunt-work stuff, with guidance, I can get some stuff done.

cheers,
