If you use "stratagus-run" from X Terminal, do you get any error messages?

Unfortunately the update is just the bare stratagus application. It doesn't include the extra warcraft graphics needed for the N900 resolution, and doesn't even include a desktop file, so you'll have to run it from the command-line. I've currently blocked the update, though I do plan on looking at what's needed to make a separate "Warcraft II" package, which will depend on stratagus and contain the extra graphics, etc.

You can change it by editing the .desktop file. Unfortunately I think the location is also hard-coded into the application as it copies the N900-specific graphics over after startup, so changing it may not work properly. Also, as the media card is using FAT32, the directories are not case-sensitive, so you can install into Games or games and it should make no difference.

thanks but it is case sesitive and the .desktop file only tells it where the app is not the data files. :(


thanks anyways :)

Oh, sorry - it's the stratagus-run file that contains the path. And it certainly shouldn't be case sensitive - I can do "cd /media/mmc1/GAMES" or "cd /media/mmc1/games", and both work without any problems.

I just updated, all of a sudden Stratagus 0.1-4 is gone and Wargus finally runs, why can't I have both???

So I have to choose between Starcraft and Warcraft 2?

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
 
Tried all advice on here, looked through every post and have done all that is needed.

Downloaded wargus for the windows PC as the instructions for use on my ubuntu desktop, are less than uselsss. It talks of using a CD and requiring a separate download for stratagus if you follow the readme. So went with this forums instructions. (which is a shame as my asus 1000 could really do with some games but installing on that is a no no with current instructions. What exactly is ./build? What kind of instruction is that?

Anyway I digress.

Copied the CD files after extracting using wargus on windows PC. did it for both expansion and basic files.

Copied onto phones MMC in the correct path.

Installed wargus using the app manager, clicked download and because it uses the extras devel' had to wait the extra half an hour because it always turns my N900 into an etch a sketch.

FINALLY was able to then click on icon. Takes five seconds of black screen and drops to desktop.

I haven't got sudo gainroot as I haven't enabled RD, so at the moment it is just files ripped from the original CD and the wargus app downloaded.

Anything other ideas that doesn't include massive amounts of command line editing?

I thought all N900's were the same phone, the same hardware. Seems odd so many people have difficulty. Anyone got it working after downloading from the extras-devel repository. Or most people using .deb files, which I just can't get my head round installing from. On a PC or the phone.

Just installed and tried it, didnt play a round but the whole interface looks well... the idea just sucks, that ive got to downgrade all my tactics from broodwar to sc back!
Is there a way to play Broodwar with Wine or so? Or would the only one be to install Win in a Dosbox?!

I can't load savegames. It worked once or twice, but now I'm stuck with crashes when loading my savegames. Why?

pali 2010-10-13 13:15

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
 
If you are using new version of stratagus and wargus from extras-devel repository, this is OK. New version of stratagus has fixed load/save support and it has changed format for saving games. So old saves are not compatible.

See info in thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=60678

Sorry for being off-topic Pali but, what is the status of Stargus? I can't find too much information about it here in the forums or in Launchpad.

pali 2010-10-13 13:44

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
 
Stargus is hosted on LP too: https://launchpad.net/stargus I fixed some lua script to run it with new Stratagus (you can get bzr branch). But Stargus has no support for campaign and not for a lot of units. Next startool (program for extracting data from original Starcraft CD) is possible to compile only on 32bit processors (no problem with N900 - 32bit armel).

Writing scripts and converting maps from original campaign is too boring and spends a lot of time... and I play Wargus only for campaign. So I have no motivation to develop Stargus.

I can release Stargus packages for Windows, Ubuntu and Maemo but only playable mode is single player (with multiplayer mode is problem in engine Stratagus). It works fine now, you only need extract data from original Starcraft CD on 32bit comuter.

To be more precise, I've the problem with a savegame I just made. I save the game, quit to menu, and load the game: no problem.
When I save, quit Wargus, start it again and load savegame: crash.
In the meantime I haven't updated. I will try to get the bug again and give more info. Thanks in advance!

New version on extras-devel (2.2.5.4-1maemo1) has a error on postinst script, this trying working on War2 CD files after install, but I have all files installed.

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
 
Try full uninstall stratagus and wargus:
$ root
$ apt-get purge wargus stratagus
$ rm -rf /opt/stratagus
$ rm -rf /usr/share/games/stratagus
$ rm -rf /home/user/.stratagus*

And then install wargus again.

====================================

For all: please write to thread on: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=60678 where is my official builds.
