The following are emails from coders on the quake-devel mailing list who are working on getting QuakeForge to compile or who have succeeded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Quake-devel] Compiling under djgpp From: Thad Ward To: quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net I'm currently working on getting the code to compile under djgpp. There is a lot to do, but i wanted to post a list of the djgpp "packages" that I had to download to get autoconf to work, and to get the code compiling. the packages I had to download are: djdev203, faq211b, bnu281b, gcc2952b, gdb418b, gpp2952b, lgpp295b, mak377b, txi312b, bsh1147b, acnf213b, amake14b, perl552b, m4-14b, sed302b, fil316b, grep22b, shl112b, txt122b, gwk303b, dif271b These probably should go into the README file. Also, i had to add a SHELL= line to the makefile generated by autoconf to get make to work.

I have now compiled the source under DJGPP without those packages.... Only thing I don't get to compile is the net stuff... net_ser.c gives me ALOT of errors... So I treid to compile with net_null.c and it worked... To compile and link that is... Quake v1.09 Loaded -2 Mb image Allocated 4 Mb data malloc'd: 4456444 Error: Only 4.2 megs of memory available, can't execute game Is the output from it.. Something is WRONG... :) I have 128 megs of ram so.... I am gonna try to get it running.. but have an exam on friday so.. not much work til then. If anyone can tell what is wrong etc... please tell me... :) Adam, aka gulgi ------------------------------------------------ Re: [Quake-devel] Compiling under djgpp From: Adam Skoglund To: quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net At 11:27 2000-01-12 +0100, you wrote: >At 04:15 2000-01-12 -0500, you wrote: >>I'm currently working on getting the code to compile under djgpp. There is a >>lot to do, but i wanted to post a list of the djgpp "packages" that I had >>to download to get autoconf to work, and to get the code compiling. >> >>the packages I had to download are: djdev203, faq211b, bnu281b, gcc2952b, >>gdb418b, gpp2952b, lgpp295b, mak377b, txi312b, bsh1147b, acnf213b, >>amake14b, perl552b, m4-14b, sed302b, fil316b, grep22b, shl112b, >>txt122b, gwk303b, dif271b > >Well...

(net_null.c used...) Havn't tried to play so much but... :) :) Adam, aka gulgi ------------------------------------------------ Re: [Quake-devel] Compiling under djgpp From: Thad Ward To: quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net On Wed, Jan 12, 2000 at 06:05:48AM -0500, quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net wrote: > At 04:15 2000-01-12 -0500, you wrote: > >I'm currently working on getting the code to compile under djgpp. There is a > >lot to do, but i wanted to post a list of the djgpp "packages" that I had > >to download to get autoconf to work, and to get the code compiling. > > > >the packages I had to download are: djdev203, faq211b, bnu281b, gcc2952b, > >gdb418b, gpp2952b, lgpp295b, mak377b, txi312b, bsh1147b, acnf213b, > >amake14b, perl552b, m4-14b, sed302b, fil316b, grep22b, shl112b, > >txt122b, gwk303b, dif271b > > Well...

To compile and link > that is... From what you mentioned in #quakeforge, you built the quake1src.zip file source code, which is not the same as building the QuakeForge source.

Yup... without mods... (Humm.. one mod.. in host.c isDedicated... that flag didn't show in that file.. although it includes guakedefs.h.. (extern qboolean isDedicated) don't know why and wanted it to compile so... I commented it out.. so.. no dedicated server and no network.. everything else works great... ) Setting up cvs now to make a Makefile.dj if i ever get cvs to work... :/ gulgi ------------------------------------------------ Re: [Quake-devel] Compiling under djgpp From: arh14@cornell.edu To: quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net I too got the original source to build (and crash) under djgpp. What we need is to be able to build QuakeForge. Everything has been moved around and redesigned...being able to build the original sources doesn't help much. I downloaded autoconf the other day. I'll try to do a build of QuakeForge. On another topic, as long as I'm sending this, I'd just like to say that a lot of the common API people are calling for seems to be what Guile provides. I'll have to wait until the next digest when I will again be woefully behind the discussion to find out what people think. Aaron
