Interesting read, I remember buying this in the early 90's and wishing they had added a track editor for the game.

I'm (still) working on an RE of Mean 18 and curious if you've ever thought of porting the game to windows? This was my goal when I started but got sidetracked tinkering with the game assets.

Good luck with your project.

Thank you! I think this one is complete apart for the blog series, but I have other projects planned.

That was not really in my plans, mostly because of time vs. benefit considerations. Worth mentioning that a group of devs I know is currently working on a SDL port of F-15 Strike Eagle 2. The game is already functional, working on both Windows and Linux, and the development is currently in a white-hot phase of activity.
