What compiler does the official release candidate get compiled with? I have not had any success with visual studio 2005, and I can't compile SVN with dev-cpp (only the RC5 compiles with devcpp... good sign). I am trying code::blocks now, but I am curious to know what the official windows binaries are compiled with.
Great game so far! Thanks!
Edit: I just tried codeblocks, and it doesn't work either... not sure where to go from here. :( I would love to contribute to this project, but I can't seem to get it compiled.
-
What libraries do I need to install for codeblocks to work? I like the looks of this IDE a lot, but the wiki doesn't say which libraries to install. I'm going to try to go off of the dev-cpp list.
-
i use dev-cpp to compile it - but we recently introduced openal-support - and the windows support is not completed atm. just remove the snd_openal.c, qal.c snd qal_win.c from dev-cpp project files to bulid without openal - "should" work

ok so I should be able to update svn and it will compile with the dev-cpp projects now?
Edit: I just reread what you said. I thought you said that you just removed the files, but I have to remove them. Gotcha. Thanks!

I did notice that qal files were the ones I was having problems with... I hope it works. Currently waiting for the SVN to download again since I wiped it before.

What do you know... it worked :)

well ref_gl.dev, ufo.dev, campaigneditor.dev and snd_dx.dev have some issues under devcc.maybe they get fixed.
other problem is as i know that one packes for the devcc is outdated so there happen some problems.
-
install libpng (see wiki) and add -lpng to project linker flags
-
yea... I instaled libpng already but never thought to change the linker flags... duh!
-
Now to find where to change the linker parameters... any hints? I've never used devcpp before, sorry.
-
Nevermind... I had to right click on the project and go to project options... all compiled. Now I'm going to try to run it :)
-
AWESOME!!!! It runs!!
I had to copy the new library dll files to the game dir, but it runs great! Now I can keep up with the development, and maybe even offer some help when needed :) I'm good with c/c++, so I'm going to try.
-
Hrm... everything compiles fine now, but when I run the game there are some quirky things going on. I setup my first base, and no buildings show up to place. I also don't see anything in the buy/sell list, and I can't go to the options menu at all. I'm sorry if this is all known stuff... just let me know :)
Thanks!

no, this is not known. at least not by me. let's discuss in irc about your problem

Ok... I'm Kainazzzo on freenode. I left my bouncer connected, so I'm on there at all times, but I might not be at my computer. If you say something to me, I can check the logs, though... wouldn't be any different than the forums though lol
How should I be running this? Right now, I have installed RC5, and I've just overwritten the files with my compiled versions. I did that because i didn't see intl.dll at all. How should I do it?
-
Alright... I got it working by putting all the files and dlls in the main directory of the SVN download. It's a bit messy, but it seems to work. The only thing I noticed is that the intro doesn't have any actual story anymore, but it just scrolls:
intro_sentence1
intro_sentence2
intro_sentence3
intro_sentence4
etc...
I know you guys are working on a storyline, so I am guessing that is it.
If I'm not setting up the game directory right for running, please let me know what I did wrong.
Thanks!
