Re: libtool woes OSX 10.5 ppc

well, bit the bullet, installed Debian (after trying gentoo, fedora, ubuntu and failing - they all kept falling over during the install) and bzflag 2.4.2 compiled without any errors, so I'm pretty pleased with that, now just have to transfer all my server configs over from Mac side and i'm good to g...

Re: libtool woes OSX 10.5 ppc

thanks for the info, looks like I won't need to post the output from autogen.sh and libtool. compiled source with no libtool issues on the intel OSX 10.8. I am prepared to say its a version problem which won't be fixed on outdated hardware and software combinations. now I am seriously considering du...

libtool woes OSX 10.5 ppc

trying to compile v2.4.2 on 10.5 PPC and failing with libtool 'command not found' errors, is this because of the wrong libtool version? (currently around 1.5, I'd have to check) the last version that will compile without error is v2.0.16. note v2.40 brings up the same libtool errors as 2.4.2 does an...

thats BZFlag v2.0.8 on a 1Ghz G4 quicksilver 2001(2?) fx5200 with 1.25Gb ram.

Never ever happened under 10.4.xx, so I dare say it's not the hardware

haven't tried it on mac intel yet, haven't got the <ahem> upgrade <cough> :wink:

"server not found" on OSX86

Just compiled 2.0.8 on intel mac (Shots DO show up on radar!) however, using the list server to select a server results in a "server not found" error. However, I can connect using the IP address of the server I want (thank god for Ping). I suspect that there may be a curl issue - any thoug...

I'm a complete noob as far as this stuff goes, but first a little background. I have been running a server for some time now and every so often my machine will completely freeze on me, I can't even access by remote from my lan. This only happens when I am running bzfs.

i am aware of how to do it with the client, this script is for the server side. I thought that the command to add bots was xrobotsplease where x is the number of bots, but it dont seem to work.

in what order do you run the scripts/apps?

is it rotate.sh->bzrobot->bzwrap or bzrobot->bzwrap->rotate.sh etc....

or does it matter at all?

seems to work, but depends on the TOD :)
