I`ve been able to compile the CVS source, but I have a problem.
Well I should say many problems.
I compiled VegaStrike succesfully
with some warning, but those are normal warning...
( signed int conversion and such )
So once I ran the make install.
I do vslauncher and the launcher pop up.
But I`m stuck there.
Any option I choose from there fails.
I can`t start a new game, I can`t even chose option.
When I chose option, it seems to start another instance
of vslauncher. ( if I do a ps ax, I get one more vslauncher
process for each time I click option )
Does anyone ever experienced that problem?
I will follow up on the error I get when I try to launch the
game when I get home tonite.
Here are some info.
Im running RH9
with the stock GL, GLU libs
I have glut-3.7 and I compiled
OpenAL from the creative cvs.
I checked out VS last nite ( sep 4 )
and OpenAL ( sep 4 )
on kernel 2.4.20-20.9 ( if Im not mistaken )
Thanx for the help!

At first they will ignore you,
then they will laugh at you,
then they will fight you,

I think you're supposed to run vsinstall
otherwise type
echo "yoursavegame" > ~/.vegastrike/save.txt
then just run vegastrike by typing
cd /usr/local/games/vegasstrike/data
vegastrike
you need to be in the data dir

After I did a updatedb I ran locate vsinstall
and only found one file which was vsinstall.1 in
the documentation directory.
Also after having run make install
the data file weren't copied.
When I launched vslauncher it complained that
it could not find the data in "insert a list of directory"
so I took one of them /usr/local/share/vegastrike/data
and copied the checked out data4.x directory in it.
The first time I did it, I probably made a mistake in the cp command. I erased everything and copied it back and now it's working.
I'll just update the Wiki with my experience.
Thanx Hellcat V
