MacOsX Version issues

[eleazar]

Here's some binaries for 0.3.11 rev 2793.

Eagerly downloading in order to test...

EDIT:

OK, i tried out the intel and universal binary, and got the same exact error message. I don't know if you assumed the user would be smart enough to do something with the SDK, but that's beyond my current knowledge. Here's what i got:

Thanks for testing.

Hopefully I just missed including one of the libraries. I didn't expect it to need this one, and it's surprising that it doesn't complain on my system about the same thing.

Can you download libgvc.dylib, place it in

/Applications/FreeOrion.app/Contents/SharedSupport/

and try running /Applications/FreeOrion.app again? (shouldn't matter which i386 vs. universal)

We can iterate from there and I'll update the bundles accordingly.

...Can you download libgvc.dylib, place it in

Bingo, that does the trick


EDIT: It seems buggy... i don't know if that's a reflection on the current state of the trunk, or something specific to this binary, or even my computer.

* The game starts with all starlanes and starnames visible... possibly this is just a testing feature?

* fleet movement is unreliable. For random number of turns individual fleets will fail to recognize all or all further away than 1 jump systems as valid destinations. After a while it works again. At one point the fleet icon was drawn in the same place for several turns, and only updated it's icon's position when it arrived at the destination star.

* i can get ships or buildings added to the production queue.

It was already fixed in newer version by tzlaine.

Have these ships fuel? If they don't have and are in supply range, they are refueled.

heh, that would explain it. The last version i had running on my machine was rc6. I theoretically know about this stuff, but i'm not used to seeing it in-game.

Err, i meant i can't get ships or buildings added to the production queue.
I can click on them and get information window to tell me about them, but clicking, double-clicking and drag/dropping won't add anything to the production queue.

First select your colonized planet(for example your homeworld). When planet is selected, it has white
circle around it. Then you can add building or ship(for example Imperial Palace) to
queue.

When your planet is not selected, it has green circle around it.

2nd reply from geoffthemedio (as answer to "bug" 1, I think it's the same as your problem).

OK, that's it. The glowing green circle seemed pretty obviously to indicate selection, so i didn't mess with it.

Updated everything to include the missing lib.

If there's a quick fix, I can rebuild. Since revision 2732 is the "official" 0.3.11 release I could roll back to that if it fixes it.
Else I can start working on 0.3.12, which I guess would also fix it.

It is simple. See this svn change in file universe/Universe.cpp. Change visibility to false.

In 0.3.12 is it already fixed(revision 2807 is 0.3.12 and in this revision is that patch).

Green circles indicate planets that can be selected as production locations, while white circles are the currently selected planet. It's supposed to auto-select one of the possible locations when opening the production screen, but sometimes it doesn't. I'm not sure why.

The all-visible issue is a single-line switch (replace a true with a false) that's used for testing purposes.

[Naesbye]

Works nicely here. Well done, .Id

Will this replace the old 'official' Mac version?

[eleazar]

Thanks .id.

My recent spurt of productivity owes a lot to the fact that i can once again see and manipulate the current version on my computer.

[eobet]

I haven't downloaded the game yet because the download page says that the games includes an installer, and I see that the Windows version requires .NET.

Does this mean that some version of Mono comes bundled with this game, and if so, are instructions on how to uninstall it supplied, or even a proper uninstaller for the entire game and the shared libraries?

[Geoff the Medio]

I haven't downloaded the game yet because the download page says that the games includes an installer, and I see that the Windows version requires .NET.

It only "requires" .NET because anything built with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or later requires .NET, even if it doesn't use any of the .NET / Common Language Runtime features or functionality.

(I don't know the answer to your question, but I thought I'd explain what I could)
