Downloading and compiling Tremulous source on a Mac

[Samurai.mac]

This isn't directly linked to Tremulous itself, but considering this forum seems to have the highest concentration of active Q3 coders of anywhere on the net, I might as well ask here: how do I go about compiling a dll file from a set of c and h files on a mac?

you don't

...?

[doomagent13]

Compile all the .c files into .o files, then link them into a .dylib/.dll with the appropriate options.  I cant get any more detailed because I dont really know how to do it...  If the game is based on q3, I recommend you just use the makefile that should have come with it.

[kevlarman]

you can't compile a windows .dll on a mac (unless you can set up a cross compiler, which if you have to ask this is probably beyond your knowledge)

[Samurai.mac]

You can compile dll files on a mac, it's been done before, I'm just having difficulty contacting my usual source for mac modding information at the mo.

Please help. the link for the svn isn't working.

its redirecting to a new page.

Here is a problem I encountered while trying to compile a different QVM.

Code: [Select]

Macintosh:~ ObjC$ cd /Users/ObjC/Desktop/p-g-qvm-read-onlyLASTONX

I had same problem when I was trying to compile the QVM mentioned in the tutorial though.

whats going on?

[Futilrevenge]

-bump-

sorry, but I really need an answer!

[kevlarman]

you're trying to compile an ancient version that no longer works on new gcc.

[Futilrevenge]

yes, because the patch doesn't patch the newer ones. 

[Skywarp]

Okay. Is anyone done compiling? if so, PLEASE attach a woring link...
NO SCAMS

Unsurprisingly, you cant compile stuff without installing a compiler first.

And what does that have to do with tremulous?

so i've done all this, but i cant use my ui.qvm any recomendations on what to do? it just quits game straight away if i use the one i compiled and i cant use any others cos they just dont work

[/dev/humancontroller]

see if you can find a file named crashlog.txt on your system.
if you run the executable in a terminal, you'll probably see information useful for figuring out why you can't get Tremulous to work.
