    131131 * ''[http://code.google.com/p/nvidia-texture-tools/ NVTT]'' - We don't need any of its fancy features like CUDA support or image-loading tools, just the basic CPU-only compression library, so it should be buildable with no significant external dependencies (though its build system might need fixing).
    132  * ''Spidermonkey'' - Spidermonkey has been ported as part of [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android Fennec]. We can't use Android's native V8 engine since we rely on some complex API features, so porting would be a huge amount of work. !SpiderMonkey isn't API-compatible or behaviour-compatible across versions, so it'd be best to use the same [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SpiderMonkey/1.8.5 1.8.5] release as we use on PCs if possible; I think the standard releases are meant to work on ARM, so that should be okay.

    133133 * ''Enet'' - Compiles natively against the NDK.
    134134 * ''FCollada'' - We use a customised/bugfixed version of FCollada, so a port of the standard version of FCollada probably wouldn't work. Our own version has no significant dependencies other than libxml2.

    163163Google publishes a [http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/index.html Native Development Kit] (NDK), which is a set of tools for building native applications for the Android platform. Unfortunately, the official NDK does not and will not support the `std::wstring` (wide characters) datatype, which is required by the game, so we'll have to use the unofficial [http://www.crystax.net/android/ndk.php Crystax NDK]. This is merely an extension of the official NDK, adding support for wide characters and other features maligned by Google.
