No Program in Windows 64 Bit?

Post by travists »

I'm back for a while (I think), got my new Windows 8 "rocket ship" computer for Star Citizen built, and thought I'd grab VS again. SVN'ed the 64bit and can't figure out how I am supposed to launch it. Any help?

Hi travists what's the folder layout look like.Is there a \bin folder if so that is where the .exc should be(what you run).The folder layout should not differ between 32 and 64 bit.

Enjoy the Choice :)

That's what I thought, but when I look in the 64bit all I see is DLL's.

edit: here is the path I found: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/vegastrike/code/trunk/win64
it gives me both the bin and data folders, everything looks like I remember it except no exe neither vegastrike.exe nor setup.exe.

Aren't you able to run the 32-bit version?

AFAIR, the 64-bit build was quite flaky

Don't know fresh Windows 8 (64 bit naturaly) build, so I thought 64 would be the one I want. I'll grab 32 I guess.

To save on bandwidth would there be issues if I Just download the bin folder then migrate the data folder?

edit: Not working so well... getting a fully fresh copy before issuing a bug report.

Not sure it was entirely rebuilt, but from the locations I'm seeing, it looks like the data folder is a separate entity and both 64 and 32 bit pull the same data folder.

It launches now, but I'm stuck with no menu and just a missile sitting on a black background.

Let me know if you guys want this as a full bug report...

Hi !
Have you unzipped the python2.7 rar archive ?
( check if there is builtin inside of folder modules )
if no ," unrar here " ...
That will create a folder "Builtin "under /bin/modules .

Code: Select all

 if (!track.HasWeapons())
            {
                // So what are you going to threaten me with? Exhaustion gas?
                return ThreatLevel::None;
            }

I unziped it, sad to do so in place, I'll check if it is in data or bin.

edit:
No joy, still have the "no rooms defined" missile on start up error. the path seems to be data\modules\builtin

This is ridiculous. I'll see if I can build a zip and fool-proof method for loading them.

Alright, I committed a new set of pyX_modules.7z archives. With any luck, they'll work (I built them in linux, but python bytecode is independent of the platform, and I think I removed all platform-specific bits, so crossing fingers).

Unzip py27_modules.7z in-place in the data folder, that should do the trick.
