Linux source packages
« Reply #90 on: March 17, 2004, 01:57:11 pm »
For those tux worhippers among us who dont want to get the source from CVS and apply the patches because they are lazy I made packages of the sources and the binaries.
For the sources: Just change to the folder you extracted the files, run ./autogen.sh, ./configure and jam. If jam complains about 1 unbuild target, don\'t worry,  it\'s just the server which you will  most propably not need. I wonder why it does  never get built on my machine ?(
For the binaries: extract the files to a  folder of your choice and copy the /art folder over. Adjust your exports and run ./pssetup then ./psclient and voila: have fun :)  

My server (slow):
psmodsrc-linux.tar.bz2 (1.2MB)
psmodbin-linux.tar.bz2 (1.6MB)

Tripod mirror:
psmodsrc-linux.tar.bz2 (1.2MB)
psmodbin-linux.tar.bz2 (1.6MB)

Edit: updated links with binary packages, now  you   don\'t need to compile PS from source :)
Note: the binaries were compiled with gcc 3.3.3 on a  athlon xp, so it could be that they cause trouble on your system. If unsure grab the source packages

Update: removed  the -withart packages and renamed   the -noart packages to -linux

I\'m already using mod, but I\'m not sure if have everythik.

I dowloaded \"planeshift-bin.rar\" and I\'m using it but I see there are other ones:  
planeshift-bin-ps.rar
planeshift-bin-ps.exe
In what are they different from planeshift-bin.rar?

and there are two other ones which shouldn\'t be installed when mods are instaled already, these ones:
planeshift-bin-cs.rar
planeshift-bin-cs.exe
Why they shouldn\'t be installed?

I gues that this was explained somewhere in this topic but I couldn\'t find the answer.
Who can help me?



What you can failure tommorow, failure today.

The planeshift-bin-ps.rar and planeshift-bin-ps.exe, are the same file just in a different format, the rar is smaller, but not everyone can open it. And correct me if I am wrong, but wasn\'t planeshift-bin.rar just renamed to planeshift-bin-ps.rar? And I believe planeshift-bin-cs.rar has the base files that got changed, and then planeshift-bin-ps.rar just copies any newer versions over since not all files are changed in each update and it saves space not having to get the unchanged files with each download, that way it saves LOTS of download time. This was changed from when planeshift-bin.rar was used where all files were downloaded and it took a long time to get the file.
Well I hope I got that right as it is 12:30 am here so I may have that all wrong, and I didn\'t go back through the posts because it is 12:30. :D  :O Well off to play something for bout 5 mins then off to bed. Night everyone. **yawn**

It should be noted that Aineko will not be able to spend much more time in PS for the next while, so unless someone else decides to write a mod, this is it for now.

Seems that a lot of these mods are pretty useful, are they going to make it in the CB official release?

Since the release of CB will mean an entirely new client, there is no point.  But I\'m sure things may be modified at time goes on.  There will be a lot of new gui features in CB so hopefully most of the concepts from the mods will be included.

Intercontinental Ballistic Thermo-Nuclear Macro

RAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!1111elevenoneoneone

The macro to end all macros the, Intercontinental Ballistic Thermo-Nuclear Macro (set)!

Planeshift.Makro.3 = /shout Launching IBTNM...            \"PlaneShift is an open source mmorpg in it\'s PRE-ALPHA state. All you can do is ROLEPLAY, Chat, solve two quests and collect Crystals. You can buy plastic weapons at planeshift.fragnetics.com/merchant but they are useless since you can\'t fight.  The cheapest item is a mug for 500 rubies. Ruby=1 Emerald=10r and a Diamond=100r.  You also can not open doors or crouch. Planeshift is FREE and will always be.  Crystals can be found almost everywhere, especially corners and dark places.  There is no release date on CB (the next version) because work is volunteered.  GM\'s have authority to kick & ban.  Most of the lag is caused by your computer, the engine is unoptimized.  \"/help\" lists all commands.  Some people have aineko\'s client mods, which can be attained from the forums.  They include Macros, a clock, /ignore, unshout, and blue text! ;) CB will contain the first iteration of everything, including crafting and fighting.  If you see a ruby or other crystal floating
planeshift.makro.3b = /shout  ...in the air, please do not take it.  It is probably part of \"Crystal Art\".\"  ...and no french on the /shout channel. :P ...et non francais dans /shout s\'il vous plait. :P  Or any language other than english for that matter.

I decided to try the mods, I installed them, and now PS won\'t load for me : \\
It\'s stuck on Intializing World...
I see no reason why it\'d do this, PS worked just fine before.
I even tried reinstalling PS and the mod, and it\'s still not working...

Maybe I missed something in the installation? From what I understand all I need to do is download planeshift-src.rar, and unrar it into the PS folder... ?(

I even tried running the Updater to go back to the normal PS, but it\'s still stuck on Intializing World! X(

Specs:
Win 2k SP 4
512RAM
Pentium 4 1.8GHz
DirectX 9


Any ideas?

There are two zip/rar/exe (whicever you pick) files you need to download, and you need to make sure you download the binaries, as opposed to source.  Anyway, you need to download both planeshift-bin-ps.rar and planeshift-bin-cs.rar and unzip both of them to your Planeshift folder.
There's a fine line between genius and insanity.

Fortunately, I have good balance.

Nice guide.. I thought I was far not skilled enough to use the PS code.. but when I see these parts of it I know what they mean and what you are doing :P

Btw maybe the mods could make a mods section were everybody can submit mods to PS, than the admins could test it and when its realy good they could post it somewere on a mods section on the PS site.

Is there any chance that you could impliment a repeat feature for when your messages dont go through the first time.
I know i tend to type long messages and when they dont go through the first time its a real pain...
