Trojan LCD Simulator
Here is the Trojan LCD game simulator I wrote. I have it running on PC, OSX, NDS, Wii and the original xbox. I decided to write it using SDL so It would port easliy. OS X was the easiest while the PC and Visual Studio was a big pain in the butt. I didn’t simulate the date or time functions as I was only interested in the game play element. Have Fun.

Hi,
I’ve been looking for this piece of software for decades, and finally it is here!!.
Firstly, I wanted to thank you for your big effort coding it for multiple platforms.
I owned a real TJ (it died). So I just wanted to say that I think there are slight differences on how the buttons work. AFAIK, you couldn’t hold down a button to lower the door *continuosly*, or setting the spear all the time the button is pressed. In fact, I find it a bit complicated and confusing because I don’t exactly know when the button should be released. I think it’s only a matter of timing.
When you click a button, the associated function works during a section of time and then it finishes. For instance, in the real machine, when you clicked the door button, it went down for a small period of time, and then it went up automatically even if you don’t released the button. That period is exactly what we can call “game time-step”. The condition for letting in, or just dropping a guy, depends on the time-step like a boolean condition.
Yes, I know I’ve explained it horribly since my English is not good enough.
Anyway, thank you very much for this!!.
