So a simple run of \'updater\' should do the trick then, you\'re saying?

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game /
« on: April 12, 2006, 06:07:40 am »
I had been trying to install from CVS for a while now and, quite frankly, I just gave up for the time being so big binary here I come! Anyway, I\'m on linux and running (obviously) the (now) older 0.3.013 version. When the update comes in the next few days will \'updater\' update everything or do I have to redownload the whole binary again? (a pain in the butt, as I am currently at school and my torrents get limited, so I download these things at the speed of slow)

No, you\'re right. I had a problem with the patch for cal3d so I just used the ebuild for it (which the cvs crystalspace, cel and planeshift were not happy with).
Realizing that this meathod wasn\'t working, I unmerged the ebuild and took another look at the patch and figured out what I was doing wrong with it. Now, with the correct version of cal3d, I went and rebuild the rest of everything and updated. pssetup runs fine, as does updater, but when I launch the game it crashes. I tried it twice (the first from pssetup and the second from psclient) and the first time the terminal window that I entered the command in didn\'t even show that the program had stopped. A second running, however, gave a segmentation fault (nothing other than that, just a segmentation fault):

Same thing here. I just did a fresh install and update from scratch (successfully) and I get this. Maybe a file is missing from the server somewhere?

Ok, I found the patch for the ebuild (I think that the actual version is newer, but the name of the ebuild never changed, because everything seemed to compile just fine)
Now when I get to running \'updater\' it seems to have a problem finding the lynx server:
\"Trying mirror Laanx...\" {preceeded a ridiculous repetition of the following: \"http://psteam:p1ane@laanx.fragnetics.com/updater_hidden/ver.dat (0)\"}
I checked and I am running 2006-02-26, I know that the newest version is supposed to have problems but this is a few versions back, or so I think. I figured I\'d instead upgrade to 2006-03-06 and see what happens.
At this point everything seems to have compiled just fine and I was successfully able to update (with the --auto option) But I noticed that I had the following warnings:
-----------------
SCF WARNING: 1 unreleased instances of class crystalspace.documentsystem.tinyxml!
SCF WARNING: 1 unreleased instances of class crystalspace.kernel.vfs!
-----------------
And when I try to start planeshift (./pssetup - and then press the \'launch\' button) the loading screen starts and then it crashes. I get the following error:

I just did a clean install of PS from CVS and I still got the error. The workaround seems to work, but I don\'t think it was fixed - unless the howto I used is outdated. (which is very possible, knowing my luck 
)
)

It might be. Again, I am using the stuff in portage.
This is the package name: \"crystalspace-0.99_pre20050823\" I\'ll give that a shot via CVS as well, now that you\'ve mentioned it.

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Planeshift CVS compilation can't find variables
« on: April 07, 2006, 12:10:59 am »
My computer runs Gentoo but there are problems with the current ebuild for planeshift so I decided to try and install it via CVS. I have installed cal3d, crystalspace and CEL through portage (so they are system-wide) so I just jumped to the planeshift portion of the CVS howto, downloaded the stuff and got to \'jam -aq\' and got the following error:
http://cyberneticpitstop.zapto.org/planeshifterror.html
(I wanted to post the full error, which was a bit long for the forum, so I put it on my website for easier viewing - hence the link)
I found a similar post here (but its rather old): http://planeshift.oodlz.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=8879&boardid=23&sid=69250ae7cd449d7e31008c33c44590fd
This one is old, but it was a very similar problem. Unfortunately the resolution for this problem has already been taken care of in the code, so the problem must be something different. To me it sounds like it just can\'t find one of the libraries, so I\'m re-installing them all now and I\'ll see if that helps at all. Other than that, any ideas?

Well, the two variables did not, in fact, set up correctly. While I was looking into the problem, I noticed that I had accidentily installed something in the wrong place (just a bad day, I guess :-/) Regardless, I re-installed the game and the error went away. Now I have the update problem, which I\'m pretty sure I saw somewhere else on the forum so I\'ll just save the space here. Thanks for the tip on where to look.

same issue here. I\'m using gentoo and went throught the help file step by step on the planeshift site. I can\'t run the binary at all (or the setup for that matter either) I get:
bash: psclient: command not found
Still browsing the forum, but any ideas?

« on: April 29, 2005, 07:39:37 pm »
Ok, this is a related post (and my first question, for that matter). I found, downloaded and started playing PS last night.
The sourceforge link is still up for the installation guide and what I downloaded there didn\'t match up with what the guide said I had to do (there isn\'t an updater or a setup executable (currently running in xp, though I\'m going to try gentoo later)) After searching the site, though, the torrent file downloaded and installed fine and matched the installation guide as I had expected. (Just figured I\'d throw that out there first.)
Now, when I tried to setup a character, I first noticed that only the top class (sorry, I can\'t remember the name right now) was available but when I went into the game itself I saw several classes around. Do I have to run the updater more than once maybe to get all of the updates?
Secondly, this might be a glitch but I\'ll post it\'s where appropriate if it is a problem. I went to setup my character, got to the last screen that described the childhood experiences and my cp went over limit (to -5, I think) When I removed that specific experience that pushed me over the -5 remained. Then I went back and reset some other stuff but it kept on removing cp instead of balancing it out like it should (I would add stuff and the cp would go down but when I removed it the number stayed the same). Is this a bug and should I report it as such?
