Hello! GSoC has officially ended, and I’m in the final stage – submitting my work for the entire summer to Google!
When I first received the acceptance letter in May, I was very much baffled. It was exciting and a bit scary at the same time, because I have never ever worked on a project of this scale. Well, first time for everything I guess :)
Hello! Because I think I am mostly done with the new feature implementation, this week was mostly cleaning up the tree, and getting it ready for a PR!
Last week, I mentioned some special engines which were ported a little differently, so let’s start with those.
Hello! Some very nice progress this week I can’t wait to tell you about. Let’s just jump right into it!
So, last week I shared that even though I had something cooked up that was somewhat correct, it wouldn’t really be suitable as a proper solution. I also discussed briefly on what was the approach I was taking on next. Because the new work would require cleaning up a lot, I just set up a new branch and cherry-picked some of the commits that would be relevant.
Hello! What a busy week it has been, and I have some good things to share. In just over a little 3 days of time, I worked for a lot of time to implement the new idea I mentioned I had last week, and it was actually working quite well! I managed to implement the entire basic structure of it, as well as port over 8 of ScummVM’s 79 engines to adapt to it!
So, what’s the deal with this, and what did I do? The “idea” was just me getting a basic understanding of how things “could” work in a way.
