Linux - very close to successfull compile
« on: February 28, 2004, 07:05:30 am »
Hello all,

I\'ve been lurking and reading for about ten days. Many false starts with different packages, but now almost have a working PS on Slackware 9.1.  I have managed a working, Crystalspace and cel installation. Exported variables are in the system.  

The Planeshift package that I am using is \'planeshift-0.2.010FullSourceAndArt.tar.gz\' so I don\'t believe that there are any files missing. Building Planeshift with jam goes well and ./pssetup works. When I start ./psclient the opening screen has no text and the Blue crystal (leftmost of the three central buttons) is missing, By trial and error I have managed to find that the character creations screen is available by clicking where the blue crystal should be, but once again, no text in any of the entry spaces.

From the console messages I see there is a font that cannot be opened, but I haven\'t been able to come up with a solution. A swift kick in the head may be in order, PLEASE HELP, I would like to try Planeshift.

ken@monster:~/molblue/planeshift$ ./psclient

Mounting maps: dungeon hydlaa tower podium temple.
planeshift.application.client: Planeshift Molecular Blue
