What is the goal of JA2 Stracciatella?
The goal is to make Jagged Alliance 2 available to a wide range of platforms, improve its stability, fix bugs and provide a stable platform for mod development.
Why stracciatella?
The name is an allusion to calling an unmodded version the “vanilla” version. The goal of this project is to improve the game without changes that would feel out of place. The end result still looks like vanilla, with some improvements mixed in just like the pieces of chocolate in stracciatella.
Where does JA2 Stracciatella run?
It should run on all little endian platforms that support SDL2. This includes (but is not limited to) BSDs, Linuxes, Android, MacOs and Windows.
Where can I get it?
Detailed installation and compilation instructions are available on the website here. Release and nightly builds are available for several platforms.
What's with the "continued continued" stuff?
As with many open source projects, JA2 Stracciatella had periods of inactivity. Maintainers changed and to keep with tradition, the last revival in 2016 announced itself as a continuation of previous "continued" efforts. It's also a simple way to be able to differentiate entries in the Jagged Alliance History page.
Does it work with 1.13?
No and it's not planned, since it's out of scope.
