Server Game.qvm/SVN Mixup

[Death On Ice]

My server is supposed to be running risujin/avenger 3 on it but it will not start up and has this error:

Risujin told me:

Your tremded and game QVM are mismatched. You are using either an old or a backported tremded and will need to get an SVN tremded (something around SVN 848...).

Please shed light on my case!

[Death On Ice]

Come on people! Almost 20 views...no reply!

[n00b pl0x]

well a lot of people look at all posts, even if they dont know how to fix a problem because they want to get rid of the ugly orange little unread flag next to the topic...but i know i got an error somewhat like that when i was using the wrong game.qvm

[Caveman]

I guess you did use the search-function and I guess further that Risujin was unable to help you, so how can you expect anyone to come up with a brand new solution in less then 6 hours??

[next_ghost]

Search: compile. 'Nuff said.

[DASPRiD]

Sounds like either you don't use tjw-executable, or you put the qvm into the wrong directory.

[benmachine]

Sounds like either you don't use tjw-executable, or you put the qvm into the wrong directory.

I'm guessing since you used to have a a server that it isn't the latter, because you've already done this once. So I can only suggest getting http://tjw.org/tremulous/mac/ again and making sure that it's not that. IF you really want to compile your own server, then you'll need to:

1) get subversion for mac HERE: http://metissian.com/projects/macosx/subversion/ (or google a GUI client, but everyone knows GUIs are for pansies)
2) get Xcode Tools from your Mac OS X install disk (it's not installed by default iirc)
3) open a Terminal and, as subversion tells you to, edit the PATH:

Code Select Expand

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin; export PATH
then get the svn 848 source:

Code Select Expand

svn co -r 848 svn://svn.icculus.org/tremulous/trunk tremulous-svn848
and compile it:

Code Select Expand

cd tremulous-svn848
make
You now have the binaries, there's just a few more things left:

Code Select Expand

cd build/release-darwin-x86/ #or release-darwin-ppc depending on your processor
cp ../../src/libs/macosx/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib .
cp /Applications/Tremulous\ 20060704/base/* base/
./tremded.x86 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg #or tremded.ppc indeed

[Death On Ice]

I have an intel mac though....would that change anything?

[Death On Ice]

When I try to

cp /Applications/Tremulous\ 20060704/base/* base/

I get

Code Select Expand

Im kinda lost...

cp /Applications/Tremulous\ 20060704/base/* base/

Code Select Expand

/Applications/Tremulous 20060704/base/*:

See the bold "\"? Notice how it's missing in the output? That is the problem; change it to a /. It should work fine then.

[Death On Ice]

I dont have a file in my Base folder called

Code Select Expand

* base/... it think.

[Undeference]

Spaces are used to separate command line parameters and * is the wildcard character.
cp /Applications/Tremulous\ 20060704/base/* base/
would copy the files from "/Applications/Tremulous 20060704/base" to "base" (in the current working directory).

[benmachine]

See the bold "\"? Notice how it's missing in the output? That is the problem; change it to a /. It should work fine then.

that's not the problem, if you read his command line input he did include it (it's a \ btw to ignore the space after it). The problem is I assumed he'd installed Tremulous in the applications folder. Death On Ice, replace that line with cp /wherever/tremulous/folder/is/base/* base/
cp <-- copy
/wherever/tremulous/folder/is/base/* <-- everything in your usual base folder
base/ <--- to your compiled base folder
The other error, the compiling one, I can't explain - it doesn't even make the first file :/
You'll have to ask somewhere else about that, or find some way of testing both your compiler (gcc a c file somewhere) and your source code (no idea how you'd do this, other than compiling it)

[Death On Ice]

My tremulous folder isnt called Tremulous 20060704... would that matter?

[Death On Ice]

Benmachine...could you make me one? I cant seem to get it...

[benmachine]

My tremulous folder isnt called Tremulous 20060704... would that matter?

Yep, it would. Doesn't explain why you're getting a compiler error though.

Are you sure you can't make tjw's tremded work? That'd certainly be the easiest option, try redownloading it. Make sure you don't have a vms pk3 in your ~/Library/Application Support/Tremulous/base folder which could take precedence over the vm folder.

Failing that, I'm gonna try to get the binaries I compiled for Risujin's client available for download by zipping them up. I believe they include an svn895 tremded for intel macs, although I can't be certain it'll work any better.

[Death On Ice]

That worked....but now whenever I go into a server it asks me to download the vms thing and i cant play without it. Also, my server won't show up on the internet....

[Harwe]

Something is truely wrong..... tremded.exe for me should work..... everything used to work wtf happened? for me i used the same stuff from my old server and tried it but it didnt work..... and i cant find any posts that teaches me how to compile a new tremded.exe
WHY THE HELL DOES TJW's TREMDED.exe WONT WORK ANYMORE?!?!??!

[next_ghost]

Maybe because it's built from SVN823?

[Death On Ice]

Please Benmachine can you compile a ub tremded =D Please!

[benmachine]

I compiled a tremded.x86 straight from svn848 but when I tested it it refused to read pk3s - reporting a Could not read default.cfg error (default.cfg is in the data pk3) despite the relevant file appearing in the search path.

So I'm stuck for now. I'll work on it more later.

edit: please change your first post, put line breaks in so it doesn't stretch the page

[next_ghost]

"Could not read default.cfg" means "I'm not next to your global base directory".
