starting self compiled version

Post by DwarfVader »

Hi Guys,

I'm running in some trouble trying to start a self compiled clone of the unv source from within the CodeBlocks IDE.
configure and compile went fine. I also downloaded the needed game files with the provided shell script without problems ( followed the wiki tutorial ), but if I'm trying to start unv from within the IDE it stops due to missing default.cfg file.
Haven't had the poblem last time i selfcompiled. But that was before I used the installation method via the apt repository you now providing for my gaming install. I used the Installer the last time i setup a paralell installation of the game for programming and experimental reasons.
I also noticed during cmake target creation that there are no options to provide an alternative path for the User game files ( still reference to ~/.Unvanquished). My Question are now: Where to put the default.cfg file so that i can launch the game from within my IDE for testing reasons and if you could alter the default cmake.txt to include an option to set an alternative path for the necessary user game files ( Gaming Directory ). the content of the crashlog.txt: Couldn't load default.cfg — I am missing essential files — verify your installation? is also not very helpfully. At least the default search path could be shown to help ( me :-) ) workaround that error.

ok. that was not exactly what i wanted, because i now had to create an extra tool within the CodeBlocks IDE to start the game ( >point it to the compiled binary with the parameter you mentioned ) witch brings me into the game menu but the client crashes upon connection trying to download vms-14 pk3. SO something is still not working/is missing/is there , but in the wrong version ... <- does the git version normaly run on your machine, if the compile went fine? please tell me what adjustments you normaly have to do, to run a compiled version fresh from git. Obviously downloading the game files/maps isn't enough - at least on my setup :-(

Strangely, v0.14.0 did later succeed in connecting. I'm not sure what's going on here…

I have resources in /usr/games/unvanquished/main with symlinks in ~/.Unvanquished/main so that I can run ./daemon without requiring extra parameters. Other than that, more or less stock options (except that I usually do debug builds and link in libopenal at compile time).

hmm, indeed strange. I now have copied over the missing default.cfg from an older saved unv install backup ( 4 months old ). it starts as mentioned but with an empty language select combobox and item messed up in the game browser view( button internet is placed roughly in the center ) - and crashes during connection attempt to any server. Obviously this is due to a version mismatch, but the thing i don't understand is, that i can't locate any default.cfg file within my filesystem, which (should?) has been installed by the version from the repository i normaly use for gaming. - So something is there, i don't understand :-(

I should probably amend the instructions on the wiki to include information about checking for conflicting files and the like, as well as to fix whatever problem you were having with Code::Blocks. When I have the time...
