I am considering porting DarkRadiant to windows arm systems. Currently I am not sure how much does the editor relies on sse instrincs, and how many third party libraries are available in windows ARM.

DarkRadiant's main codebase is not relying on any intrinsics as far as I can recall right now, it's generally kept very close to the C++ standard for portability reasons. Third-party libraries like Eigen might use platform-specific stuff, but I assume they are portable as well.

It all comes down to whether the third-party dependencies provide a port to the platform, these are some of them:

A problem might be the openGL version that is supported on your target platform. There could be some openGL API calls in DarkRadiant that may cause troubles.

DarkRadiant.apk???

 

I'd love to see that, but I fear the biggest issue is going to be UX, and require a much cleverness.  I'm sure this community will give a lot of feedback about that, if that's the idea.

I see, so if I could find windows arm64 version for them, how should I configure the compilation for it?

Sorry, I'm afraid this question is too vague for me to answer. It's all about the VC++ solution, if you intend to use Visual Studio. All the dependencies need to compile against that new platform, the produced binaries can then be linked with the main application and DLLs.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
