Re: Stratagus 2.2.8

Post by Kyran »

So the plan is for 2.2.8 to be the last released on SDL1? We'll do some rebranding for Stratagus 3. :)

Who here is able to compile some binaries? I'll try to produce some for Ubuntu 13.04, Ubuntu 13.10, and Raspbian.

I've updated changelog of Stratagus' new release in trunk. There are too many new features and changes, so the next version of Stratagus could be easily called "2.3" :)

I took a look at the changelog, and the changes sound pretty cool :)

EDIT: Are any changes to the Lua scripts necessary for them to work with the new Stratagus version? If so, what would those be?

Your binary doesn't like videos.

I'll push the updates to trunk in preparation of the next version.

I've been playing the Frontier Force campaign on the trunk. I've noticed a few problems.

+ AI gives up attacking when the attackforce's path is blocked after a while. Attackforce's route should be recalculated every so often so the units don't just sit around doing nothing.
+ Melee units freak out when getting attacked from different sides by ranged units, seems to mainly happen around towers. The unit keeps switching targets, walking back and forth in a line.
+ Friendly units no longer attack you when you attack them, except for splash damage units (catapult).

I've been looking at how to get Stratagus into various distros. So far I've found one for Debian. They also have a PPA which would certainly be more popular than our own. Fedora has a less impressive page about their packaging.

DinkyDyeAussie, thanks for compiling those .exes, but unfortunately they don't seem to work for me. When I try to use them with Aleona's Tales, Wargus or Wyrmsun, the game fails to load.

Hmmm. That's weird, I haven't changed my compile routine, and the exe files work for me...I mean I can't load saved games, but starting a new game with the new exe files, it works fine...Maybe you need my SDL.dll file too...I dunno. :oops:

I'm sure if you compile the latest trunk everything will work out.

For me at least.

Try deleting your configuration file, Andrettin.
