Updater Available

[Talad]

Hi,
yesterday Daniel compiled the updater app. We didn\'t test it yet, so we need someone with some patience to test it.

You can get the updater here:

http://www.planeshift.it/download/closed28763alpha/PS_Updater.dmg

After getting the file, you should edit updaterconfig.xml file that\'s present in your ps dir.

In that file you should locate the section
and substitute it with this one:

   
        data
        art
        docs
        rules
        root        
        macosx
   

after that, launch the updater and tell us what happens.

It should download a new psclient file (66 Mb) and probably other various art depending on which files you have on your system.

I did as instructed, nothing happens.
I get this in the console :

dyld: /Applications/Planeshift3D/updater.app/Contents/MacOS/updater can\'t open library: /sw/lib/libdl.0.dylib  (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

I tryed the updater.app but crashed immediately...

so I used the same trick as dfryer told us yesterday about psseup.app

... I mean copying all the folder Resources from psclient.app to updater.app

in this way the application starts but crashes anyway after few seconds

error message:

crystalspace.font.freefont2:

It seems a problem of finding a single font file.... could be ?

dfryer, we are in your hands

:-))))

Try to copy this one into data/ttf directory

let me know the results.

Shoot, that dylib file that Vaiyul mentioned is probably a dependancy for libCURL, which the updater uses.  I didn\'t think that the Updater had any more shared libraries than psclient, but it seems like I was wrong.  I will upload the dylib file and people can put it in /sw/lib/ (creating the folders if necessary) or I can mess with the updater and re-upload it.

Sir Peter, is the updater.app & config files copied into the same folder as all your other Planeshift stuff?

Thanks,
Daniel

[Sir Peter]

I changed \'verdana\' font and it seems fixed, now this is
the problem remaining...

its the same happend with pssetup.app

(to dfryer, yes everything in the same PlaneShift folder, of course)

you have to install dlcompat-shlibs.
tha can be done with fink, or download it at sourceforge
