Hi Phil,
Thanks for the information. That really helps.
That said, my feeling is the same as yours about rewriting them. Jim
Kitchen has done a nice job on his football and baseball games that it
really isn't necessary to rerite Any Night Football or World Series
Baseball at this point unless someone really wanted those exact games.
I myself am not a huge sports fan so Jim's games are perfectly fine
for me personally. However, I will keep Any Night Football and World
Series Baseball under consideration for the moment.
To be honest when I threw this suggestion out there I thought people
were going to make suggestions like Elite, Facing the Empire, and a
few other Dos games of that sort where there is no Windows equivalent.
I wasn't really expecting to rewrite games like Any Night Football
because there are currently decent alternatives to them in the form of
Jim's football and baseball games.
Cheers!

Hi Thomas,
I have the rights to both Any Night Football and World Series Baseball.
Carl Mickla wrote the football game in C plus plus for DOS and I got all his
source codes, Harry Hollingsworth wrote the baseball game in GW basic, but
he passed away in 2002.
I also have the source code to it.
I wasn't planning to update them to Windows as Jim Kitchin has two good
Windows games already.
In both games, you play the role of manager or head coatch. But both use the
actuall stats of the teams involved.
The baseball game uses the player's stats, while the football game only uses
team stats.
Each year I would compile new stats for the two world series teams and the
all star teams for that year.
Both were turn based and gave you a menu of plays to call.
A random number was generated at each play or pitch and that number was
modified by the stats to determined the result.
Bothe were passive games in which you couldn't pitch or swing at pitches and
catch the ball in baseball, or you couldn't throw passes or run with the
ball in football.
Phil
