Windows / Prepare for 2.4? Which nightly build to download.......

« on: March 19, 2012, 08:14:57 am »

I downloaded this one "http://ufoai.org/snapshots/ufoai-latest-win32.exe" but it says its 2.5 not 2.4.

Should i have downloaded this one to test -  "http://ufoai.org/snapshots/ufoai-stable-win32.exe"

Thanks

Bugs prior to release 2.3 / Re: r24148 - Actor movement out of sync - server crashed

« on: May 06, 2009, 07:51:13 pm »

just done svn up and recompile

i noted this time that it said do "make pk3" which i hadn't done before - not sure if this is something new -do the web page instructions need updating

anyway - it still crashed on the africa map - though slightly different error (negative TU costs)

just done it again on 24347

i also noticed that it seems to happen after the game switches from full screen to windowed  - it does this itself for no apparent reason

Linux / Re: Save bug (?) In Ubuntu 9.04

« on: May 05, 2009, 05:54:49 pm »

hi geever

sorry but my knowledge of linux is limited

i just followed the svn instructions - basically download and compile then ran ./ufo from the trunk directory - does this count as "installing"?

are you saying that doing this also sets up stuff in the hidden .ufoai directory that synaptic would use

as a matter of interest how do you tell what version you are running from within the game?

thanks

thanks Destructavator

that sorted it

i was not searching but scrolling down - but the files were like libXVID which is why i missed them

thanks geever

i have now installed from svn as well to use the latest version

what was odd was that it didn;t update whats in Synaptic (though i didn;t expect it too)
BUT
when i started the new version all my old saves were there from the synaptic version


is it safe to remove the synaptic version without messing up my svn version?

thanks

Bugs prior to release 2.3 / Re: r24148 - Actor movement out of sync - server crashed

« on: May 05, 2009, 08:09:18 am »

sorry - can't recall

but i was worried about whether i had recompiled maps

prior to the 'svn up' info i posted below i had done another one which i think updated a maps - but nothing happened then either with 'make maps'

so after any svn up i think all i need do is simply:
voteslave@quad:~/ufoai/trunk$ make maps

or am i missing something - like do i need do ./configure and make as well???

I tried to see again in the synaptic package manager and found like theora and xvid  ".dev or -dev"...
just install it....and then try another more installation....now compiling the maps.....hope for success...

Hi

I am having very similar problems with Ubuntu Jaunty - i have looked in Synaptic but there are no DEV files for xvid or theora - do you know what repositories these are in?

many thanks

sorry geever

i am using the version in the repos

a couple of Q's
1) how often do the repos get updated
and
2) is there another way to keep things more up to date than using repos? -

thanks

Linux / Save bug (?) In Ubuntu 9.04

« on: May 04, 2009, 12:59:27 pm »

Hi

I have started 2 games now and had to abandon both (one fairly soon after start and one after several missions) because when i click on the Options button it goes direct to the load screen and doesn't give me an option to do a 'Save'.

I am using this version : 2.3 svn23838 on Ubuntu 9.04
And the latest linux nvidia graphics drivers on a GTX260.

I haven't seen what causes this - it just seems to happen randomly at some point in the game.

Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong, or maybe it restricts saves or something.

thanks

hmmm
just realised that installing those .deb sound packages has stopped all my sound from working - i think it must have uninstalled something

did you have a similar problem and if so how did you fix it?

thanks
