Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
This looks promising. Any info if the application itself is optified? Putting the game data on MMC is a good thing though.

No, it's not optified. It installs a 1.6M binary into /usr/bin (that'll be compressed somewhat though).

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
This makes me happy in the pants region. Love warcraft.

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
It's actually more than that I think. Unless I'm mistaken, /media/mmc1/ is in the root which is where you copy all of the data that wargus extracts (another 16M). Maybe this is only true if you don't have a memory card installed?
Shouldn't this be installing and pointing to /home/opt? If you're going to hard code anyway, put it someplace nice. Change /media/mmc1 to /home/opt and that will get a majority out of the root. Quote:

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
Great news; I loved Warcraft 2.
Does anyone know if the AI of Stratagus has evolved in the past years? I believe it is different than the original WC one -- last time I played against the computer, it was way too easy to beat and thus no fun... Of course, I can also play against humans in network... |

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
I have all the warcraft series - but I am a little confused about what files I need to copy off the CD. Is it just the DATA dir?
Never mind I am a ***** |
Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
You have to run Wargus to extract the files off the CD. It wasn't obvious to me but Wargus creates a data directory in c:\program files\wargus by default. Place the contents of that data directory (campaigns, graphics, etc) in /media/mmc1/games/stratagus.

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
I get this when I try to install stratagus
/var/lib/dpkg/info/stratagus.postinst: maemo-select-menu-location: not found Any ideas? |

Yup, maemo-select-menu-location is not available on N900. Doesn't matter.
|
Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
I still can't get the game to start. from xterm if I start stratagus, it says I need to specify data folder and when I do, it can't even find preferences.lua... sorry if I seem to be total noob, but that's just because I am when app-manager is not used :)

Yeah, I think so. wargus gave me "data" folder which seems to be correct content-wise.
|
Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
Works great - thanks a lot! Please up it to extras so others would use it.
Also note you can use the red pill(App manager -> Add Cataloge->Type "matrix" in address -> press cancel -> menu -> Install from file-> choose the deb file downloaded) to install this aswell without x-term. @zehjotkah - the link is legal - so what's the problem? |

The link is just a link through to amazon selling the version I have for $128 bucks :)

Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
By any chance, is this gonna be a proper app in the catalog? Us simple end users are too afraid to go through all of this. I mean it's legal and all, so why not? It'll be the user's responsibility to put the files in place, just like ya do with emulators...
Anyway looks great! Keep it up! |

@Dragy The problem is that you have to run a utility to extract your owned data files, so this is never going to be a point-and-click install. |

Thanks for bringing attention to this, very good stuff.
Theres also this thread which focuses on installing on the tablets: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=16774 Also: "2007-06-10 Stratagus development halted Development on Stratagus has permanently halted. The Stratagus developers are now working on Bos Wars. Bos Wars uses its own modified version of the Stratagus engine." :( |
Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
Lets get BOS working then :) it looks like a cross between starcraft and command and conquer tiberium wars
By the way. I wonder is the porter would be willing to help me with a fullscreen sizing issue I am having while porting/running xevil on the N900. Message me here if you are. |

I gave up on Stratagus. Maybe later I try it again.

Maybe I just had wrong version of the "cd", I might try again with different one. Btw, should I start stratagus from xterm or from the icon the deb installed?

do you have problems with extracting the files? just install wargus, put your CD in, while installing wargus, then wargus will ask you to select your cd and will start to extract all files to C:\\Programs\wargus\. just copy the content of the data directory to your mmc1/games/stratagus. should I add a HowTo of that to the first post? |
Re: maemo Games: Stratagus (Warcraft 2) on your N900
zehjotkah, thanks! I got it working :)
