Exult Forum

I was hoping to be able to build Exult 1.2 on an intel mac, but was running into some problems. Configure seems to be okay, but I get the error below during make.

Should be doing something else?

Thanks,
Robby

I *think* Watt from the Pentagram team already reported some issues and found some workarounds (for compiling Pentagram that is, but I *think* (again) that Exult probably suffers from the same problems). See the #pentagram logs at http://www.math.leidenuniv.nl/~wpalenst ... ramlog.php and browse through the last two months. It had something to do with stuff like sdl not all being natively availlable for the intel macs.
Perhaps Willem as keeper of the logs knows more and can quickly locate it.

FWIW, I got sdl from fink. I had run configure before getting sdl and it complained, but after sdl was installed, it seemed fine.

The error message doesn't _seem_ to be about the sdl ...

I also checked the logs for 2005 and 2006, searching for "intel" and didn't find anything relevant.

This build issue with hash_map was encountered before. Is this the same GCC problem someone else was having recently?
I'd ask if you used autogen.sh but you're using 1.2 which I don't think is available from CVS, and I'm not sure if 1.2 is still known to build successfully.
http://exult.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=33401#p33401
http://exult.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=28680#p28680
http://exult.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=27153#p27153

yeah, I missed that it was about 1.2
There have not been ANY fixes for 1.2 in the source so that is something you need to find out by comparing notes with the other forum entries.
BUT I'd suggest trying to build current CVS to see if that is something that got fixed.

Thanks for the tips. I was able to compile it fine with the cvs tar file I found on the website (is there actual cvs anonymous access that I missed somewhere?)

After playing a little bit, I clicked on my character and got the stackdump below.

I'll probably just go back to 1.2 in emulation mode, unless my help would be useful for debugging (if this doesn't happen for you, for example)

Thanks,
Robby

Oh no! I switched back to 1.2 and now it won't let me "journey onward".

When I click on that, it just exits. Below is all of the output from exult, when run in the shell.

Is there anything I can do? It's depressing to start over

Thanks,
Robby

Following up on my most recent post: I was worried about something like this, so I took care not to overwrite my save slot from v1.2. Is there something I can do to get back to at least that position in the game?

Thanks,
Robby

is there actual cvs anonymous access that I missed somewhere?

Try this:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@exult.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/exult co -P ./exult
This comes from the project page (more specifically, from here.

Simply start a new game and then load the game you want; Exult journeys onward to the last game you saved and/or loaded.

you might need the anonymous CVS access (I haven'T looked at your error messages since those don't mean anything to me). We did have problems before when people not on Windows used the CVS snapshot.

Thank you very much for the tip! I did manage to get back to my v1.2 save game.

Thanks also for an excellent job with Exult! I'd bought a copy of U7 a few years ago, but well after it was actually playable on a machine I owned (as I learned after I got it home, much to my chagrin). Now I can give it a spin!



Robby

Any updates in this area?

I'm about to buy a MacBook or MacBook Pro, and I'd like to continue playing U7 using Exult.

Is there a Unviersal Binary build for exult? If so, has anyone had success compiling from source? If so, could you detail step-by-step instructions?

I'd like to play with the nightly builds, but I don't know how to compile on an Intel Mac.

Thanks for any information.

One of my planned projects for this weekend is to try to build Exult on my Intel iMac. I'll be sure to put up a note on how it does (or does not) go.

I would of course be pulling from CVS, as I could not imagine playing 1.2 at this point.

Sounds great. Let us know how it goes. I'm anxious to get Exult working on an Intel system.

If you do successfully compile, perhaps the resulting binary could be hosted on the Exult website? Since Apple is finished with the Intel transition, more people will find this useful.

Thanks again.

I don't think hosting a single CVS snapshot is a that good idea. Since there could always be the chance that just that one snapshot is the very bad one that breaks all kinds of things. That's why it is so neat of Kirben to provide daily snapshots (if code actually changed). Detailed instructions on how to compile Exult on Intel Mac and a Exult 1.2 package would be much more usefull.

Dominus,

I didn't think of that, but you're right. If we could get the "Dummies Guide to Compiling Exult on Intel Macs," that would be best. (I say "Dummies Guide" here because I know next to nothing about compiling software from source!)

I haven't been following Exult's progress lately, but I take it there has been substantial improvements in the daily snapshots. However, I'd love to see a 1.2 Universal Binary as well.

Yes, I'd love to see some guidance on this as well!

Initial news: I'm having a bit of trouble with SDL-Mixer. I had been using Darwin Ports to provide a lot of the libraries.. This isn't working out so hot; it appears that the version of sdl-mixer source that Darwin Ports pulls doesn't like OSX 10.4. Is most antagonistic about it, so far.

I'll look into other options for this later, such as fink (which is suggested in the docs).

I'm not certain how darwin ports and fink would interact, though. That has the potential to get messy.

At the moment, fink has one of their core servers down. I don't feel like futzing around with their documented workarounds, so this will have to wait until later. I have too much of a headache right now for that. :p

So you know, if I get this working, I have absolutely no objection to producing a 1.2 Universal Binary package, and if someone can assist with tools to do so, I wouldn't mind producing snapshots of CVS at some interval. Probably not daily, but bi-weekly certainly, possibly weekly.

It's not on Intel Macs there's a problem making Exult. I have the same troubles on my PowerBook. At first it would just complain of missing this or that library or whatever but eventually I got everything (apparently) required through Fink but the make process still ends with errors. Possibly I'm just an idiot but I have no problems at all in Fedora 5, so I suppose I can't be completely stupid. If there's anyone who is able to successfuly make Exult from CVS source code on a Mac regardless of processor, it'd be nice to hear from them because I'm stumped.

OK. This is weird. I had another go with the latest snapshot and it worked. I didn't do anything different so I have no idea why it worked this time and not the last time.

It worked this time because there was a (recently added) compile problem which was fixed in the last snapshot or so.

MeddlingMonk,

Can you give a step-by-step guide how to compile from CVS? Sounds like you're on the right track!

Cheers.

Especially I'd like to know what differs from the steps that are described in ReadMe.MacOSX

I'm not sure I can give any step-by-step instructions, mostly because I haven't been very methodical in what I've been trying. I would try to get it to work, get annoyed and leave off for a while and then try again and sometimes it'd be so long between attempts I could forget what I tried before. I should have kept notes.

But I think I can give some pointers. I should say I'm using OS 10.4.7 and Fink. At first I would get errors about not finding libraries it needed and eventually I figured out that I needed to modify the path. There are a couple of ways to do that and which you do would depend on what you're using specifically for your terminal. And if you want to cover your ass you can do both (like I did).

For the first way, in terminal first you should gain admin rights by typing 'sudo -s' and entering your password, then change directories to /etc and use whatever text editor you want to use (I use pico) to open the file profile (in other words type 'pico profile'). I edited the path so it reads:

PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sw/bin:/sw/share:/sw/lib"

For the second way, the file to modify is csh.login. So same as above but type 'pico csh.login' and I ended the path to read:

setenv PATH "/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sw/bin:/sw/share:/sw/lib"

After doing that I had better luck but make was always ending by saying it was missing a package or library. I would then get that with Fink but then make would say it was missing something else. It would only complain of missing one thing at a time and there may have been close to half a dozen things I had to get that aren't mentioned in the OSX readme. The problem here is I didn't keep a list of what all it was asking for so, EmuBite, you may want to make a list and share it here so Dominus or whoever can add it to the readme along with my path-editing stuff.

Now, after finally getting it built (oh, btw, the part in the readme about 'make Exult_app' still doesn't work for me) I just the U7 original game data and also the digital audio files. I should say first I had no issues with the files gotten from the Ultima Collection CD. I know some say you have to go to the trouble of installing with DOSBox but I'm not sure that's necessary. However, I didn't put the game data on my Mac direct from the CD. I had already been using Exult on my Fedora box and when I had made Exult on the Mac I just made a samba connection to the other computer and copied the files over, and the only reason I'm bothering to describe all this is I have a vague memory of having altered the permissions of all the files and folders for BG and SI after I had copied them to the Fedora box. I think the only thing necessary, really, is to be sure that you have read and write permissions for each file and folder for BOTH owner and group.

Since I was wanting to use the diginal audio, I ran into a tiny problem because of the ogg format but that was easily solved by going to http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/ and getting XiphQT. After the package is installed you have to restart your computer. And that brings me to a final thing, which is before that restart I could not switch to fullscreen mode but could afterwards.

Oh, and one other thing. It would be very nice to have aspect ratio correction added at some point. A problem of sorts I've found on *nix systems (Fedfora first and then OSX) is that the graphics in Exult are vertically slightly squashed. Instead of filling the entire screen at the default resolution the image stretches all the way from left to right but not top to bottom. Now on the Fedora box that was easily corrected by adjusting my monitor's height and width controls but there's nothing like that available on my PowerBook. I can choose the next-higher resolution and that will fill the entire screen but it does nothing for the vertical compression.

nevertheless your not-quite-step-by-step gives at least some (vital) pointers as to where to expect culprits. Thanks for that.

hmm, that is strange indeed

And here's something else. The problem of copying files directly from the CD v. installing with DOSBox is definitely about permissions. When you just copy the files (and this would be an issue for any *nix OS) the permissions for owner are read and write but for group they are read only. The group permissions also need to be read and write. That needs to be changed for every file and folder for BG and SI but fortunately that can be done for batches. In OSX it's as simple as copying to the hard drive the folder for BG and SI, selecting both folders and bringing up the info, then go down to Owership & Permissions, expand Details, change Access under Group from read only to read and write and then click on Apply to enclosed items. And of course it would be similar using KDE or Gnome except that with Gnome you can only change permissions one directory level at a time.

Just one more thing (I seem to be channeling Columbo today), the error I get when I try to do make Exult_app is "make: *** No rule to make target `Exult_app'. Stop."

I'll take a note of the permissions thing and will add this to the "Installation" section as a separate point to make sure that is set correctly.

That's because you need to say 'make bundle', and not Exult_app.

Thanks. README.MacOSX doesn't say that.

I'm not sure if Macs are any different, but on Ubuntu-Linux, CHMODing everything to 755 seems to work fine for me as far as permissions go.

This may or may not have been useful, but I hope the former

It's probably the same or close enough. But most Mac users are GUI. Some are gooey but we won't go there.
