I too will leave my BT client (Azureus) seeding for as long as possible. I\'m at 33% downloaded right now.

The installer is on one of the mirrors:
http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/planeshift/

Also, I\'m now seeding on the torrent dablade created.

The mirror was giving me between 200 and 300 KB/s, I\'m doing between 80 and 100 KB/s total upload.

So downloads should be faster now.

Edit: Sorry, I kept getting NAT errors, so I\'m not uploading on BT.

Good idea.  I am downloading from that mirror at 350 KB/s, and will start seeding the torrent with it as well (in about 4 minutes).

Normally you can\'t beat BT, but when there\'s only 1 seed, it don\'t go so fast.... Fortunately there should be several seeds soon.  Keep seeding people!

Umm, guys, apparently my download from the mirror was bad. (I redownloaded and the file is good now).

Yes, I did share it on BT. Sorry if I cuase anyone else any problems.

So if you have problems with extraction when you run the installer, it\'s just the file, and you should redownload.

like this?

./setup.sh: line 57: dialog: command not found
./setup.sh: line 59: dialog: command not found
./setup.sh: line 113: dialog: command not found


or is that something else?


EDIT: P.S. DaBlade I adblocked the image in your sig. >.> annoying when you try to read a page of comments

Also, my bawx locked up while I was seeding. I WOULD seed more.. but well... OMGBANNED now ;)


EDIT2: Well obviously I installed the \"dialog\" package now, let\'s see what happens

seeding at the moment to the two users that remains....
my upload is not very good but i\'ll last seeding until both of them will be done :D

BT is a very good alternative to mirrors, faster to set up, free of charges and it frees a lot of bandwith from mirrors....

maybe always linux users can we donwload the client via BT instead wainting for a updater or a space for the linux client at the mirrors.

Really good idea.

Pity that i yet  cannot test this client cause im at university preparing an exam, but tonight i\'ll test for sure!

Linforcer: You need the dialog utility installed, it is usually in a base dir or any
Linux distro, since important programs like netconfig use it. Weird that you
have not installed it.

Anyway glad to see you, people, are helping each other in distribution of the
Planeshift installer. Keep the good work!

Not only was dialog not installed, it wasn\'t even in the default sources :O

Ok, well I didn\'t save the strace to a file I just took it from the console. I have 2 kinds.

1:  
Happens sometimes (also happens when built from source)
Client exits after showing the first loaing screen and hearing a second of sound
strace output: http://pastebin.com/288722

2:
Happens whenever I try to join the game
Client exits when done loading the area
strace output: http://pastebin.com/288729

I have problem n?1 and can\'t found a lot of things about this message on the forum except that it might impact performances. But I don\'t really care about performances now... it doesn\'t launch at all. :(

./updater is working fine except the mouse cursor is extremely slow and it says to me \"no update\", which I find rather normal.
./ pssetup is working fine (I read the \"cannot save\" message on exit is meaningless)
./eedit is showing me the worksmith house correctly and I can move in this world, so my engine is working fine.
./psclient is exiting after 1 sec :(

As others above i get error 1; can\'t figure why, but running PS with:

psclient -verbose

just works for me. Maybe some timeout somewhere?

Another problem with install script: when asked for install path, when i press / (slash) the dialog exits (i\'ve IT kbd layout). I had to untar the package myself (im so lazy)

If you have problems with the installer or client itself make a separate thread
on this forum.

Important!

If you are encountering client crashes this is the thing which may help:
Run the updater and remove the file art/effects/flame01.tga.
I got a reports from the numerous Linux client users that it helps so the crash
is probably caused by that corrupted texture.
