problem with compiling maps (r29501)
« on: April 21, 2010, 02:07:55 pm »
Map "maps/city/citybldl_4x4_2a.map" takes really long to compile (actually, I stopped it before it could finish). The part with "Lighting" takes about 30 min in "FACELIGHTS" from 0 to a 2. Other maps compiled in this section in 30 seconds.

Any advise on that one?

Yeah, well, for a "part-time" tester, this is not the answer I was looking for. Oh well... *compiles*

Though I don't think, this is "tester friendly".

Just for the record:
That map takes nearly 2.5 hours to compile on my i7 :(

Just downloaded latest svn and it is taking more than 2 hours to compile the maps. This is on an i7...

And Duke, you just said it took 2 hours to compile one map...

What sort of time frame am i looking at for all the maps?

(It started going slow around japan/ja_main)

all maps done
complete ufo2map time:   03:00:50
AMD K8 2x2GHZ
using optimized ufo2map (make_UfoAI_win32)

by hand ....
speed up ufo2map.exe over 100% (gcc optimization)

Umpf... actually it was 3.5 hours, but I used the debug version of ufo2map, doh !
With the release verion it's 'only' 40 minutes.

Is it possible to divide debug and release version for the game and ufo2map?

Yes, and that's already the case.

Is there a way to let my video card compile these two maps? My dualcore compiles over 6 hours... Or can I exclude these two maps? 6 hours compiling this stuff is 6 hours more I have to wait, until I can begin this savegame-testing...

It's very frustrating.

EDIT: Sorry, it's one map (but two lengthy compile processes day/night).

You could rename them to sth like *.ma2, but they will come back with every svn update.
