#12183: Team Fortress Mod

What would people think about a team fortress mod for Sauerbraten? I've played other team fortress mods for free games and they became quite popular.

#12186: Why call it Trooper?

by Hapexamendios on 05/26/2009 00:46

I'm just curious. The previous editions names were somewhat self-explanatory; ctf edition has new ctf mode, summer edition was released in the summer... :P
Great job in any case, many thanks go to eihrul, quin, and all others who made this edition of Cube 2 the best one yet.

#12192: Linux noob question

by Dant on 05/26/2009 19:18

Well I've played Sauer in the past on Windows and just recently reformatted and dual-booted with Ubuntu. Any way I can't get the executable to run for some reason.

I didn't put this under bug reports because it's likely my stupidity.

Also I downloaded it 3 times so I know it's not file corruption and I also uncompressed it

Heh - one of the (few) times the topic is actually used ..
you should run the .sh file, probably best from a console (Alt+F1 - 2x Arrow-Up - Arrow-Right - select "Terminal") .. then "cd" to your installation directory .. like "cd /opt/cube/Sauerbraten/Trooper" (wherever you unpacked it) and then type "./sauerbraten_unix".
If it still fails to run - did you really download the linux-package or are you attempting to run the EXE ?!?!
Also : look at http://cube.wikispaces.com/Install+Guide
and http://cube.wikispaces.com/Beginners+Guide as well as http://cube.wikispaces.com/Performance+Guide
..assuming you have installed the graphics drivers required for your hardware.
HTH

Oh, forgot to mention this:
maybe it's a permissions thing - look for the eXecutable bit being set on the sauerbraten_unix script and the binaries inside bin_unix! (use "ls -l" for that - check the first 10 chars of each line for "rwx").

Ok I tried the first suggestion and it said

"./bin_unix/Linux_64_client: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory:

So I'm gonna say that it was either the permission thing or I'm missing files somewhere.

One last thing when I was looking at the sauerbraten_unix script I noticed this at the end of it

"else
echo "Your platform does not have a pre-compiled Sauerbraten client."
echo "Please follow the following steps to build a native client:"
echo "1) Ensure you have the SDL, SDL-image, SDL-mixer, and OpenGL libraries installed."
echo "2) Change directory to src/ and type \"make install\"."
echo "3) If the build succeeds, return to this directory and run this script again."
exit 1
fi"

So as you can tell everything linked to SDL libraries, bottom line:

I installed SDL libraries... now it works fine. Thx for the help anyway.
