Raw Normal View History

- Added AUTHORS file noting people who contributed on the project. - Added HACKING for developer notes. - Updated README to be more of a README. - Updated TODO list. - default don't build xatrix and rogue - rolled back save game changes from 6 days ago, as they suck. Save games are a complex beast and need someone to redesign them so that they aren't tied to a particular build. In the meantime, though, I'm not losing any sleep over it, there's a note in the README about it, so time to close this bug. (Closes: #15)

README for quake2
=================
Compiling
---------
Some notes about building from CVS and a warning that things won't work :)

If you are checking this out from CVS, run the bootstrap command first to set
- Noted the requirement for automake 1.6 in the README - Got configure to work out the BUILDSTRING (now BUILDHOST) for common.c - Code cleanups.

up configure. You will need autoconf 2.50, automake 1.6, libtool 1.4, or
greater. Then follow the instructions in INSTALL.

Save Games
----------
Save games are tied to the build of quake2 that they were created with.
You can *not* use old save games with new versions of the code (well, you
can hack the savegame loader to allow this, but you may find yourself
experiencing interesting and obscure segfaults in the game).
The simple workaround is to *not upgrade* if you are in the middle of
a single player game.
Mission Packs
-------------
To build the Xatrix and Rogue missionpacks, download the sharballs from id
Software's FTP site:
ftp://idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake2/sources/
uncompress them, and run them in src/xatrix or src/rogue
Added a top-level README to let people know not to play with impertinent subtrees.

In src/Makefile.am, swap the comments on the SUBDIR lines, and run ./bootstrap
from the top level. Rerun configure and make.
