Hello Steven

The OS2World server implemented a new firewall and some changes on a apache-mod for blocking the bots.

EDM/2 is hosted by Netlabs. Adrian will have to check on that. On my side EDM2 is working with the Dooble browser, I don't know if you want to give it a try. "yum install dooble".

Applications / IRIT - Modeling Enviroment
« on: January 19, 2026, 03:54:32 pm »
Hello

This is a little subject I want to share with you. It is not important as far as I can tell, but I want to let it documented just in case.

"IRIT is a freeform geometric modeling environment that allows one to model general freeform surfaces' based models as well as polygonal objects, and use Boolean operations on both."

The IRIT modeling package is free for noncommercial use and it is copyrighted to Gershon Elber. It is not open source under one of the common licenses.

Long time ago (1997), someone ported IRIT 7 and shared the binaries with the source code. I have the source code that contains an OS/2 makefile here: https://github.com/OS2World/APP-GRAPHICS-IRIT

The modern source code is still available (free for noncommercial use) here: https://gershon.cs.technion.ac.il/irit/irit-sm.zip

I got a request to delete the source code since it is old. (Current version is 13)
-- https://github.com/OS2World/APP-GRAPHICS-IRIT/issues/1

I have to comply to that, since it is not traditional open source software. I will turn the repository private. I'm just notifying this, just in case someone think there is something useful on the source code OS/2 port.

I don't know how to use IRIT, I just can tell it is a command line tool, but it has some PM app to viewing 3D models (I guess).

Hello Dave

I created this repo: https://github.com/OS2World/APP-SCIENCE-XTide
Let me know if you think that way is fine (the program and the library), otherwise, just delete the files and set it as you like it.

Also, a quick tutorial on how it works would be appreciated just to test it out.

Regards

Thanks Steven

What should be the command to modify the stack of a 16bit app to make it run?

How much should I put on the /STACKOS2 ??

When I run it I get this:

In my case it works. But I noticed that it depends on the video. It seems that there some newer format that give some kind of error.

I deleted the ./config stuff of mediadownloader just to see how it was the first run. It gave me:

I did a:

to install bsdtar and the error message was removed about it was gone.

i don't know if we have deno ported.

Hello

Do you think there is a chance to run this poker game in ArcaOS with some trick/hack/mod?
- https://www.os2world.com/games/downloads/native/cards-dice/Poker_Solitaire_1-1.zip
It is from 1989, so it is for OS/2 1.1 or later.

This is the error on popuplog

That is strange. Do you think it is a limitation of our git port? Or is some strange file on the repository.

This is the source I can get from Github desktop (Windows) attached.

Hello

In my case MediaDownloader_5-4-5.zip is working for me to download YouTube Files.

I also have Python 3.13.2. When it runs for the first time, it downloads "yt-dlp" first and I guess it uses python to get it. It also requires ffmpeg to create the video file in your hard drive.

Thanks Dave. It was my mistake, I was thinking that the .exe and /data were supposed to be in the same directory as the older port.

The game works, and sounds fine.  Like you said, fullscreen with alt+Enter traps the program.

Do you think the .exe can be modified to find the data on ./data instead of ../data?
Just to make it easier for the user to unzip and run the exe. If it is not possible, that's ok.

Hello Doug

I have this page about OS/2 and the Mainframe:
- https://www.os2world.com/wiki/index.php?title=OS/2_and_the_Mainframe

I'm linking these videos, it was kind of cool to see a more extended video about "Support Elements" (https://youtu.be/MldoPkd349M?t=421)

Hello Dave

I tried it here, with the ./data from the older binaries. But it tells me it can not find it, even if the file is there.
Is is something that is not recognizing between / and \ ?
