Stargus Issues

Post by Salvakiya »

ok so first off...

I downloaded the 32 bit installer for Stargus and Stratagus and installed them

I had an issue with the stargus installer. I got a newer copy of Starcraft from walmart and the installer on the cd is not called installer.exe

So I tried to give the installer my starcraft game directory. It did not take it because it did not have installer.exe in the directory.

so I moved the installer from the cd to the directory and renamed it to installer.exe

the installer worked fine I think?

HOWEVER-

Whenever I try to run Stargus or Stratagus exe files the window will show up and dissappear. The game just does not seem to run. Can anyone help me?

I could be wrong, but to my knowledge Stargus was never completed, and thus possibly it is not playable.

Indeed Stargus is very incomplete in both it's source code and lua scripts. Alot of work has gone into Wargus, and Stargus has been put on the sidelines (for now hopefully and not forever). All that is needed is for someone to take up the project and improve the scripts to get it running stable enough to be included in the next big release milestone.

There's alot of people here that can help you with knowledge if you're enthusiastic about getting it running. I know I'd like to get it running, but at the moment I am concertrating on Wargus interface improvements.
