: Java

; Which is the minimum Java version required?

: 1.5

: 1.8

; What IDE do you recommend?

: Eclipse (because it is best known by most project members, so you can ask questions about configuration)

; What version system do you use?

: CVS

; Why do you use CVS, it's rubbish?

: Although we know newer version control systems with more features exist, we want to continue with CVS because CVS is very stable, has a long history and is widely supported.

== Stendhal project ==

; I want to translate Stendhal to another language, any hints?

: ''to be filled in (by durkham?)''

; I want to use Stendhal as a basis for my own RPG, can you help?

: Stendhal was written as a test case for Marauroa zone changes. Using it as a base game for an RPG is not advised. You will find a lot to do with our own map, quest, and NPC system is hardcoded. Using marauroa as a framework for your own RPG is what we advise.

; But, I can't write my own RPG, can I use Stendhal as a base and make my own maps?

: Ok, but please follow our conventions as you never know what is hard coded. And you will need to learn Java.

; Is there a FAQ about Stendhal?

: Yes, have a look at [[Stendhal FAQ]]
