Binary in SVN?

Trying to build your own version of Vega Strike and having problems? Unix users, paste your config.log here (stderr output alone is not helpful).

Binary in SVN?

Post by MoonKid »

I have the current VegaStrike sources from SVN.

I found in trunk/win32/bin a file named vegastrike.exe.

Am I right if I say that I don't need to compile the SVN sources because there is a binary in it?

btw: Is there a way to ask the binary for its version or revision number?

Hm... I tried to replace the complete bin-directory with the bin-directory from SVN.
VS starts but there is a unspecific runtime error at the start screen (with the nice gir on it).

Is there anything in the stdout.txt and stderr.txt files that gives any indication of what the engine thinks it is trying to do.

Enjoy the Choice :)

Ah, now I use the "bin" AND the "data" directory for my VS installation.
This work.

I can see the tutorial. Very nice!!!

But my ship is attacked. There are a lot of hostiles around me. ;)

So I am switching back to the current official release and waiting for a new official release. ;)
