00:00:06  <dihedral> if you dont know what extra zoom levels are then they are not what you are after, correct?
00:00:09  <Rogue-Wisema> well i have been trying to use the wiki.openttd.org stuff
00:00:26  <dihedral> ok, and what were you reading there?

00:01:18  <Rogue-Wisema> origional scale stuff mainly, just trying to workout how do i get it wroking
00:01:24  <Yexo> Rogue-Wisema: best would be to post a link to what you're trying to get
00:01:46  <Rogue-Wisema> http://wiki.openttd.org/wiki/index.php/List_of_downloadable_32bpp_tars

00:03:16  <Rogue-Wisema> atm i want to try and get the town pack into the game
00:03:27  <Yexo> Rogue-Wisema: are you using original or opengfx graphics?
00:04:31  <Rogue-Wisema> i dont know, i need to go to the basics and understand from the start... but the forums are scattered information and the wiki doesnt explain much there either (or i havnt found the right page)
00:04:42  <Rogue-Wisema> my guess is im trying to use the opengfx
00:05:41  <Yexo> http://wiki.openttd.org/wiki/images/e/e3/Intro_screen.png <- does your intro screen look exactly like this, or are the graphcis different?
00:06:20  * glx clicked on "Quit" :)
00:06:22  <Rogue-Wisema> except the version is 0.7.0
00:06:27  <Rogue-Wisema> so i have downloadable content
00:06:50  <Yexo> ok, then you're using the original base graphics
00:08:19  <Yexo> download town_pack.tar and put it in the data folder (best would be My Documents\OpenTTD\data)
00:08:24  <dihedral> glx: lovely :-D
00:08:25  <Yexo> but installdir\data will also work
00:08:53  <Rogue-Wisema> OpenTTD\content_download\data?
00:08:56  <glx> dihedral: I often try to move the map on screenshots too
00:09:14  <Yexo> Rogue-Wisema: that's fine too
00:09:30  <Yexo> but I ment OpenTTD\data
00:09:31  <Rogue-Wisema> then will it just run?
00:09:44  <Yexo> no, then you have to make sure you use a 32bpp blitter
00:10:00  <Yexo> open openttd.cfg
00:10:13  <Rogue-Wisema> this is where things got a little strange... i added the simple blitter
00:10:18  <Rogue-Wisema> under mic
00:10:18  <Yexo> which one?
00:10:23  <Rogue-Wisema> misc*
00:10:36  <Yexo> blitter = "32bpp-optimized" <- that should work
00:10:38  <Rogue-Wisema> keyboard_caps =
00:10:39  <Rogue-Wisema> blitter = 32bpp-simple
00:10:41  <Yexo> but 32bpp-simple is also ok
00:11:51  <Yexo> if you did that, just run the game and it should work
00:11:53  <Wolf01> 'night
00:11:54  <Rogue-Wisema> oh so i need quotations?
00:11:59  *** Wolf01 [~wolf01@host114-234-dynamic.21-79-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has quit [Quit: Once again the world is quick to bury me.]
00:12:18  <Rogue-Wisema> should i change the sprite_cache_size aswell
00:12:30  <Yexo> Rogue-Wisema: you don't need the quotations, but openttd adds them automatically

00:14:40  <Rogue-Wisema> just trying it now
00:16:53  <Rogue-Wisema> ok well the towns dont look like the new ones
00:17:40  <Rogue-Wisema> could i extract it out of the tar?
00:21:08  <Rogue-Wisema> this is gettin frustraiting
00:21:21  <Rogue-Wisema> what? dont the graphics work with the new beta build?
00:21:57  <glx> they should if they are not from extra zoom
00:23:49  <Rogue-Wisema> well im stuck
00:24:07  <Rogue-Wisema> i cant get any ones that arnt the downloadable content to work
00:26:14  <glx> there are no 32bpp graphics in content download
00:26:56  <Rogue-Wisema> so i need to disable the content download so the 32bpp grahics will work?
00:27:11  <Rogue-Wisema> or roll back to 0.6.3
00:27:16  <Yexo> no
00:27:21  <Yexo> but are you sure they don't work?
00:27:38  <Yexo> the town_pack.tar only changes a few sprites (mostly roads)
00:27:57  <Rogue-Wisema> yeah, i have them in the folder and the towns look the same (in particular the roads0
00:27:57  <Rogue-Wisema> )

00:31:07  <dihedral> [01:28]  <Rogue-Wisema> or roll back to 0.6.3 <- give up that easily?
00:32:18  <Rogue-Wisema> well i dont understand why it isnt working, i have got the town_pack.tar in 3 different data folders at the same time (incase the problem is related to the directory it searches) and i havnt got anything else to try
00:32:25  <Rubidium> dihedral: fix your clock, it's off-by-one
00:32:42  <Rogue-Wisema> could be a vista issue?

00:33:50  <dihedral> ask apple i use their server

00:35:51  <glx> Rogue-Wisema: what's the content of the tar ?
00:35:54  <Rubidium> Rogue-Wisema: did it work in 0.6.3?
00:36:18  <Rubidium> what base graphics are you using? Copied them from a TTD for DOS CD or from and TTD for Windows CD
00:36:23  <Rubidium> or are you using OpenGFX?
00:36:29  <Yexo> glx: the tar is fine, I just checked and it works here

00:42:03  <petern> i guess it's supposed to check if a sprite character is valid but it doesn't do that
00:42:50  <Rubidium> still, sprite characters seem quite unuseful in filenames, chat messages and other stuff send over the network
00:43:03  <petern> quite
00:43:45  <CIA-1> OpenTTD: glx * r15535 /trunk/src/ (31 files in 3 dirs): -Fix (r15460, pre noai merge): use '.' as 'any' for squirrel calls typechecking as stated in squirrel docs

01:06:45  <dihedral> now portal really disappoints me
01:09:27  <Rogue-Wisema> oh whops sorry, had a shower and some breakie
01:09:49  <Rogue-Wisema> theres a folder sprites\trg1r\*.png's
01:09:59  <Rogue-Wisema> and im using windows source
01:10:41  <Rogue-Wisema> the grf's work, but not the png's
01:11:37  <Yexo> Rogue-Wisema: are you using the dos or windows original graphics?
01:12:05  <Rogue-Wisema> im pretty sure its the windows ones
01:12:25  <Yexo> start the game and take a look in the game options window
01:13:14  <Rogue-Wisema> isnt the unifish version the windows ver?
01:14:06  <Yexo> I have no idea what unifish is
01:14:19  <dihedral> what are the files named
01:14:32  <dihedral> trailing w in the name or not
01:14:34  <dihedral> ;-)
01:15:12  <Rogue-Wisema> both are there
01:15:13  <Yexo> for the original graphics it's a trailing r or not
01:15:32  <Yexo> do you have trg1r.grf or trg1.grf?
01:15:56  <Rogue-Wisema> r
01:16:03  <Rogue-Wisema> theres an r @ the end of the files
01:16:29  <Yexo> so you're using the original windows graphics
01:16:35  <Rogue-Wisema> yes
01:16:37  <Yexo> and sprites\trg1r\*.png should be ok then
01:17:23  <Rogue-Wisema> yes
01:17:48  <Rogue-Wisema> can i just recompile trg1r.grf, and if so, how
01:20:24  <Rubidium> Rogue-Wisema: you're using 32bpp-simple as blitter, right?
01:20:42  <Rogue-Wisema> yes
01:20:46  <Yexo> I don't know if you can recompile trg1r.grf (think it's possible with grfcoded), but it won't help you

01:21:04  <Rubidium> can you start a game and enable 'full animation'?
01:21:10  <Rubidium> does the water flash?
01:21:22  <Rubidium> (after enabling the animation that is)
01:21:29  <Rogue-Wisema> no the water doesnt flash
01:21:35  <Rogue-Wisema> how do i enable it
01:21:44  <glx> so the blitter seems right
01:22:39  <Rubidium> what's the exact path of trg1r.grf? And with exact I mean with the exact capitalisation of the characters
01:22:58  <Rogue-Wisema> D:\Games\OpenTTD\data
01:23:21  <Rubidium> and the filename? does it have upper case characters?
01:23:44  <Rogue-Wisema> no
01:23:47  <Rogue-Wisema> all lowercase
01:23:51  <Rubidium> and the trg1r directory with pngs is in there?
01:24:29  <glx> it's in the tar
01:25:07  <glx> maybe put the tar in  D:\Games\OpenTTD\data too
01:25:08  <Rogue-Wisema> yeah its in the tar
01:25:23  <Rubidium> then I'm officially out of clues/ideas why it's not working for him
01:25:24  <Rogue-Wisema> ok, but theres a sprites dir b4 the trg1r folder
01:25:54  <glx> that's ok :)
01:26:21  <Rogue-Wisema> im going to take out the \sprites\ part and see how it goes
01:26:42  <glx> the sprites part is required

01:29:57  <Rogue-Wisema> thanks for ur help guys :D
01:30:02  <dihedral> which one?
01:30:08  <Rubidium> opengfx...
01:30:09  <Rogue-Wisema> not sure
01:30:17  <Rogue-Wisema> no its origional_windows ones
01:30:23  <dihedral> ??
01:30:30  <glx> it's not in download content
01:30:46  <Yexo> any newgrf that replaces the road sprites will make that town_pack.tar not work

03:09:27  <Yexo> use svn and it'll be checkout out automatically
03:09:36  <Felicitus> hmm i'm using git
03:09:49  <Yexo> the you'll have to check out squirrel manually
03:10:07  <Yexo> s/the/then/
03:10:19  <Felicitus> yes, but the configure script don't accept a custom location for squirrel, no?
03:11:00  <Yexo> no, but you can just check out squirrel inside src/3rdparty/
03:11:08  <Felicitus> ok

08:16:52  <Yexo> congratz with getting a train running :)
08:17:14  <Felicitus> thanks :) the results look pretty good for now
08:17:19  <Yexo> and I found a function you might find usefull, although I'm a bit late.
08:17:26  <Felicitus> which one?
08:17:31  <Yexo> Calling notifyallexceptions(false); disables printing of all catched exceptions
08:17:49  <Felicitus> :)
08:18:00  <Felicitus> yes, its already to late, i completely avoided exceptions
08:18:21  <Felicitus> its a bit unorthodox - as soon as building a track fails, all subsequent track building calls immediately return
08:18:42  *** George [~George@212.113.107.216] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
08:18:42  <Yexo> as long as it works :p
08:18:45  <Felicitus> yep
08:18:52  <Felicitus> there's alot of stuff i need to change later
08:19:01  *** lobstar [~michielbi@86.89.201.189] has joined #openttd
08:19:18  <Felicitus> the station site finder for example...it just iterates from all coordinates and tries to place the station layout there :)
08:19:25  <Felicitus> but it works pretty quick
08:20:01  <Yexo> be sure to test your AI with lower AI speeds (as can be set in the difficulty window)
08:20:19  <Yexo> that can make a huge difference
08:20:29  <Alberth> if there is enough room, it apparently finds a good spot soon
08:20:32  <Felicitus> construction speed? or opcodes?
08:20:37  <Yexo> construction speed
08:20:42  *** lobster [~michielbi@86.89.201.189] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
08:20:49  <Felicitus> does this also apply to test calls?
08:21:15  <Yexo> construction speed sets how often your AI gets a tick
08:21:21  <Felicitus> oh ok
08:21:25  <Yexo> very fast = every AI gets called every gametick
08:21:35  <Yexo> fast = every AI gets called every second gametick
08:21:36  <Felicitus> well, now it takes a littlebit more time
08:21:45  <Felicitus> but it still is acceptable

08:25:35  <Felicitus> now its time for the AI to automatically extend the train with wagons and enlarge the station if it has enough money over for the initial track
08:26:58  <Felicitus> by the way, the max_cost parameter in the RailPathFinder it is the cost of the internal cost calulcation, not the real money, right?
08:27:13  <Yexo> that's right
08:27:21  <Yexo> it doesn't keep track of the real money at all
08:27:55  <Felicitus> okay, i work with a multiplicator of 2 for the pathfinder - works pretty good. of course the tracks arent perfect, but they are good enough to start with

09:29:58  *** George [~George@212.113.107.216] has joined #openttd
09:30:31  <Tefad> Unaimed: depends on your window manager. alt+tab works in many
09:30:48  <Tefad> you can also try alt+rmb and drag your foreground window out of the way
09:30:55  <el_en> not in fullscreen.
09:31:02  <Tefad> oh really?
09:31:10  <Tefad> i can move full screen mplayer windows no problem
09:31:18  <Tefad> again, probably depends on your window manager
09:31:43  <el_en> Tefad: i think we were talking about openttd, not mplayer.
09:31:57  <Tefad> yes, but i'm not clear as to why the behavior will be the same
09:32:03  <Unaimed> i'll try that
09:32:06  <Tefad> i've not run ottd in a while. i plan to soon though
09:32:10  <petern> if it's fullscreen, you can't
09:32:14  *** George34 [~George@212.113.107.216] has joined #openttd
09:32:16  <petern> this is the fault of SDL
09:32:30  <Tefad> my solution is to run it in windowed mode with the resolution similar to that of my display
09:32:35  <Unaimed> petern, so it isn't possible?
09:32:45  <el_en> Tefad: because it doesn't work the same way as mplayer. do you need to be so smart without even trying?
09:32:56  <petern> correct
09:32:58  <Tefad> you can position the window in such a way that the decorations are off screen.
09:33:21  <Tefad> el_en: excuse me. i am merely making suggestions. i am not saying i am correct.

16:59:32  <jpm> Hi
17:00:25  <jpm> I have a problem with ottd in Kubuntu
17:01:02  <Ammler> ...
17:01:14  <Belugas_Gone> i don't have a problem with ottd in ubuntu
17:01:17  <jpm> When I start game from console some output is written but game window does not appear at all
17:01:38  <jpm> dbg: [net] Map generation percentage complete: 95
17:01:40  <jpm> dbg: [net] Map generated, starting game
17:01:53  <Ammler> looks like it uses dedicated mode
17:01:59  <Ammler> you might missing SDL
17:02:01  <jpm> hmmm
17:02:35  <Ammler> install openttd over aptget or whatever kubuntu is using
17:02:41  <Ammler> then it does install the missing libs.
17:03:56  <Belugas> was gonna say that :)
17:04:16  <Belugas> basically, you built it yourself didn't you?
17:04:31  <jpm> I installed it now from apt-get but didn't help yet..
17:04:47  <jpm> Yes, I build it myself
17:04:50  <Ammler> then, you will still miss the devel-libs, I fear.
17:05:02  <jpm> like?
17:05:22  <Ammler> @wiki compile
17:05:31  <Belugas> like on wiki.openttd.net
17:05:42  <jpm> :)
17:06:23  <jpm> I prefer wiki.openttd.org ;)

19:30:08  *** lobster [~michielbi@86.89.201.189] has joined #openttd
19:30:18  <smallfly> or suck-my-dick.org?
19:31:07  <smallfly> (it was a serious question)
19:31:14  <smallfly> the first, not the ladder
19:31:45  <smallfly> dd = tt
19:32:40  <Wolf01> smallfly, try docs.openttd.org
19:33:23  <smallfly> more helpful, thx
19:34:50  <smallfly> but i thought of website, where i can find information how to develop openttd patches (which ide on which platform, how to compile, how to install all necessary libs, how the openttd source is build up generally (main structure, where to find what) etc.)
19:35:10  <Belugas_nomade> smallfly: honestly, there were very little people who reported the problem.  So i'd say that it is not a very important "problem".  I see it as part of the general parameters of TTD world.  A bit like a fact of life ;)
19:35:12  <Wolf01> in this case the wiki says all
19:36:03  <Belugas_nomade> smallfly: such a site does not exists.  the only material you need is the sources, actually.  otherwise, i mean...  what would you like that site to have?
19:36:21  <Belugas_nomade> how to to this or that?  already in the game, i'd guess ;)
19:37:14  <Wolf01> I would like to have a web interface where I can check the features I want and the perl script made the right changes to the sources for me
19:37:26  <Belugas_nomade> buwhahaha!
19:37:54  <Roest> why would a site for an opensource game project want to teach people about what ide to use
19:38:17  <Belugas_nomade> i'd like a program where i can get tons of cash coming on my credit card :D
19:38:26  <Belugas_nomade> ho.. wait... I can do that!!!
19:38:35  <Wolf01> ehehe
19:39:26  <Belugas_nomade> tru, Roest.  IDE is really a personnal thing
19:39:38  <smallfly> of course it is
19:39:43  <Belugas_nomade> it could be MSVC or even NotePad!
19:39:59  <smallfly> but you have something other people do not have -> experience
19:40:25  <Belugas_nomade> which translates to... trying stuff!
19:40:28  <Wolf01> I started with notepad, then notepad++, now I use notepad++, code::blocks and msvc80 :P
19:40:45  <Belugas_nomade> same in here, Wolfe01 :)
19:40:56  <Belugas_nomade> apart code::blocks...
19:41:42  <smallfly> some people do not want to try all ides over weeks, if all they want to do, it compiling the source with a few changes
19:42:20  <smallfly> but if you are to arrogant for this task, just let it be
19:42:38  <Belugas_nomade> what do you mean?
19:42:40  <Roest> how do you think will you find out which ide you like the most if you don't try them?
19:43:07  <Roest> you can ask here which one to use and you will get n-1 different answers
19:43:09  <smallfly> you cant know which ide is the best for one person
19:43:10  <Wolf01> or better, I started building programs in command line (old basic with line numbers) on the amstrad 464, then I switched to dos and qbasic, then I tried the zilog z80 assembler and now I'm too lazy also to write some lines in c++
19:43:47  <smallfly> but, it doesnt have to be the best ide
19:43:49  <Belugas_nomade> smallfly: have you ever programmed before?
19:43:54  <smallfly> ofcourse
19:43:59  <Belugas_nomade> in which IDE?
19:44:02  <smallfly> i program for about 10 years now
19:44:17  <Roest> ...
19:44:38  <smallfly> in the beginning, basic, turbo pascal etc. then vba for office tools, then php, javascript etc, then c# and a bit c++
19:45:02  <Wolf01> the z80 ide was the one I liked more... 12 buttons keypad and 4 7-seg displays :D
19:45:42  <Roest> Wolf01 ED B0
19:46:14  <smallfly> the only thing i cant understand: all you guys know a lot about c++ and openttd source. why not setting up a perfect guide for newbies how to change the ottd source
19:46:29  <Belugas_nomade> i did turbo pascal, clipper, business basix, delphi, php, and now C++.
19:46:39  <smallfly> this way, more and more people would join the dev team => faster development
19:47:19  <Wolf01> because to join the dev team you should pass a strict test
19:47:28  <Belugas_nomade> because we would not know where to start.
19:47:31  <glx> Wolf01: you had the one with tapes ???
19:47:35  <Belugas_nomade> apart from what is already there

19:54:14  <smallfly> c++ is much more intelligent than all other langs

19:55:21  <Wolf01> the most efficient and intelligent language is the one which does what you want, the best way and with the lowest effort

19:55:38  <frosch123> yeah, squirrel and xml
19:55:46  <smallfly> argh ... i didnt mean intelligent in this way
19:55:49  <smallfly> i mean complicated
19:56:04  <smallfly> c++ is more complicated than c#, php, java etc.
19:56:09  <glx> only if you use advanced features
19:56:09  <smallfly> dont you think so?
19:56:25  <glx> for me they are all the same
19:56:30  <smallfly> the pointer concepts, the nearness to hardware etc
19:56:48  <glx> you can code in c++ without using pointers
19:56:48  <Belugas_nomade> i do have the same concepts when working in DElphi
19:57:06  <Roest> have you ever tried to fully utilize c# of java?
19:57:09  <smallfly> delphi was not part of my list. didnt compare delphi
19:57:18  <Belugas_nomade> the only part that i find difficult in C++(and C) is the concept of strings
19:57:27  <tokai> nothing beats plain C  :)
19:57:34  <Belugas_nomade> delphi and turbo pascal are almost the same
19:57:36  <tokai> C++ on the other hand is HUGE crap ;)
19:57:38  <glx> C++ is better than C reagarding strings :)
19:58:16  <smallfly> i dont want to discuss which language is better; c++ is used for openttd and so its the language that should be explained
19:58:17  <Roest> i miss programming z80 assembler by hexcode
19:58:20  <tokai> C is like comfortable readable Assembly :)
19:58:22  <Wolf01> all languages have the same base: there are constructs and there are variables, you always use them in combination, what change between language is the syntax and the name of functions... maybe some languages are more object oriented and other doesn't know what objects are, but once you learn how to program things should come automatically
20:00:16  <smallfly> 2 years ago, i bought some book concerning c++ and wanted to program a simple game. the overhead needed to open a fu**ing window in windows is really complicated
20:00:30  <Belugas_nomade> hehehe
20:00:33  <smallfly> in c# i just say : form and tadah there it is
20:00:38  <glx> that's not c++, that's windows :)

20:01:03  <glx> just use wxwidget and it gets easier :)
20:01:08  <Belugas_nomade> yup
20:01:19  * smallfly googles wxwidget
20:01:47  <smallfly> is this used in the openttd source, too?
20:01:52  <glx> no
20:01:56  <Belugas_nomade> nope
20:02:09  <smallfly> is there a reason?
20:02:15  <glx> no need for it
20:02:21  <Belugas_nomade> we have our own,
20:02:36  <Belugas_nomade> based on the old system that was in place in the original game
20:02:54  <smallfly> ok
20:02:57  <glx> and having "custom" look using wxwidgets is not that easy

20:04:00  <glx> yes
20:04:01  <smallfly> they are not needed in a game like openttd

20:20:16  <smallfly> so why dont you delete the other sdk in the wiki?
20:20:36  <smallfly> its confusing
20:20:39  <db48x> actually, I just like bombast
20:20:48  <glx> I didn't write this page :)
20:21:47  <db48x> that reminds me, has anyone tried my coastal cities patch?
20:22:13  <db48x> I need independant confirmation that it doesn't cause the user's computer to burst into flame before it can be committed
20:22:38  <smallfly> are there any restrictions for msvc++? i mean something like a spash screen "TRIAL SOFTWARE" that pops up in the software i compiled?
20:22:58  <db48x> smallfly: yes, there are
20:23:09  <db48x> smallfly: you'll have to read the EULA for the details, however
20:23:14  <smallfly> non commercial. ok.
20:23:16  <smallfly> no pron
20:23:19  <db48x> no
20:23:19  <smallfly> no prob
20:23:23  <db48x> you can't summarize it like that
20:23:30  <db48x> it depends entirely on which version you bought
20:23:46  <smallfly> bought? the express edition is for free
20:23:52  <db48x> for example, the EULA for the student license is different than the others
20:24:00  <db48x> and the express edition has different requirements as well

20:24:15  <smallfly> is it possible to compile openttd with the express edition
20:24:21  <db48x> presumably
20:24:25  <smallfly> (why do you make everything so complicated)
20:24:33  <db48x> the express edition doesn't include all of the same libraries, but it probably works
20:24:44  <db48x> I didn't make it complicated, I'm pointing out that the complications exist
20:24:54  <smallfly> so, i better use another ide
20:24:59  <db48x> no
20:25:05  <db48x> try it with the express edition
20:25:08  <smallfly> i dont like complications, because of any fu**ing libs
20:25:21  <db48x> OpenTTD doesn't use ATK as far as I know, so that problem won't hurt you
20:25:32  <smallfly> i just want to have a working ide. is that so hard to manage?
20:25:38  <db48x> on windows, sure
20:25:49  <db48x> but you have the express edition, and it should work just fine
20:25:49  <smallfly> but i cant crosscompile for mac?
20:25:57  <db48x> not with msvc

20:28:48  <db48x> especially since msvc is a better optimizing compiler than gcc

20:32:48  <planetmaker> compiling the compiler himself and doing a bit of patching...
20:33:24  <planetmaker> and tweaking the necessary libraries afair was the hardes bit.

21:24:56  <Wolf01> the only problem with that is that sourceforge does not provide the pnglib 1.2.8, I tried many times and then I had to download it by hand and put it in the right folder in order to continue the procedure
21:25:43  <db48x> the differences between cygwin and msys could fill a book

21:26:10  <db48x> as do I
21:26:48  <Wolf01> cygwin is more complex and will need that stupid cyg*.dll

21:27:26  <smallfly> ill take cygwin :D
21:27:46  <Wolf01> each time I install a new software compiled with cygwin I had to remove manually every instance of that dll

21:34:20  <glx> smallfly: why would it explain that ?
21:34:40  <glx> it's a matter of personnal preferences
21:34:52  <Rubidium> Roest: then many persons have a "retardation"
21:35:02  <Ammler> does it matter, in which order the files are compiled?

21:35:21  <Rubidium> not really, except a few cases
21:35:33  <glx> but linking order matters for windows

21:35:57  <Rubidium> like strgen.cpp before anything that includes lang/strings.h ;)

21:42:19  <smallfly> you guys should remember for which people these guides are written for: not for those who are interested in the disputes between hardware programmers (my compiler is faster than yours, my compiler kicks your compilers ass ...) those newbies just want to know ONE compiler, that WORKS. noting more.
21:42:39  <smallfly> hardware programmers = hardcore programmers
21:42:40  <Roest> and it does exactly that
21:42:51  <glx> Ammler: download the source, extract, configure && make && make install
21:42:57  <glx> that's the only way
21:43:17  <Ammler> glx: sounds like windows :-(
21:43:20  <Roest> it has links on what to download, screenshots which settings to make and tells which buttons to press
21:43:28  <Roest> it can't get easier than this
21:43:49  <Ammler> glx: I like to use "zypper in <pack>" ;-)
21:43:57  <smallfly> but it lets the user alone with the question, which tools to use
21:44:17  * Rubidium wonders what compiler reliably always works
21:44:18  <smallfly> the dev team should just delete either mingw or cygwin
21:44:22  <glx> every body is free to use his prefered tool
21:44:28  <glx> why?

21:44:46  <smallfly> how should a newbie know, which one is better?
21:44:57  <Ammler> try both and you will
21:45:12  <glx> ask google (won't help to decide though)
21:45:21  <frosch123> why does there always have to existist something 'better'...
21:45:21  <Roest> maybe that newbie would better download a binary and come back to compiling the source once he has at least some basic knowledge
21:45:38  <glx> but the easier to install is msvc
21:45:43  <Ammler> frosch123: that is the human being... or how is that called.
21:46:20  <Roest> ok this one will decide it for you http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=mingw&word2=msvc
21:46:39  <Rubidium> tralalalala... the easiest to install was buildottd
21:46:55  <smallfly> imagine this case: a normal gamer (not a programmer) want to change one parameter in ottd and recompile it. nothing more. how long should it take to manage that? 10 minutes!! not longer
21:47:02  <Ammler> didn't work anymore here.
21:47:22  <Rubidium> if only this magical someone or that magical somebody did fix it

21:48:55  <Roest> frosch123 interesting question
21:49:00  <planetmaker> [22:44]	<smallfly>	how should a newbie know, which one is better? <--- what is better: coffee or tea?
21:49:06  <planetmaker> Can there be an answer?
21:49:07  <Ammler> cygwin install failed here
21:49:42  <Ammler> something with fontcache.cpp
21:49:54  <Rubidium> planetmaker: neither?
21:50:02  <smallfly> planetmaker, your case is not comparable
21:50:12  <planetmaker> Rubidium: possibly yes :)
21:50:25  <planetmaker> smallfly: it's a perfectly fitting analogy IMO
21:50:35  <smallfly> planetmaker, no.
21:50:35  <Belugas_nomade> yup
21:50:43  <Belugas_nomade> i hate tea taste
21:50:45  <planetmaker> the world is bigger than just "there's only one way"
21:50:49  <Belugas_nomade> i like coffee taste
21:50:53  <Prof_Frink> planetmaker: Tea, of course.

21:50:58  <planetmaker> :)
21:51:02  <glx> Ammler: you give too little details
21:51:12  <planetmaker> I prefer one at a time, but both at their time :)
21:51:28  <Belugas_nomade> both at the same time would be... interesting

21:59:01  <Ammler> his server is somehow broken

21:59:40  <glx> fix freetype :)
21:59:48  <Rubidium> broken as in: the cflags that freetype-config gives are wrong
21:59:58  <Ammler> but isn't freetype optional?
22:00:07  <Ammler> or is that something else?
22:00:24  <Rubidium> Ammler: yes, but it's available at configure stage
22:00:34  <Rubidium> and freetype-config is broken
22:00:51  <glx> maybe our detection method is incorrect
22:01:22  <Rubidium> Ammler: what does freetype-config in cygwin give you?
22:01:29  <Ammler> I made today a fresh install of cygwin
22:01:35  <Ammler> like the wiki told
22:02:11  <Rubidium> Ammler: does freetype-config in cygwin give you an error that it doesn't exist?
22:02:13  <Ammler> Rubidium: the usage-msg
22:02:16  <glx> seems we detect only if freetype-config is present
22:02:38  <Rubidium> glx: existance of freetype-config should be enough (IMO)
22:02:40  <Ammler> I installed it
22:02:49  <Rubidium> Ammler: what does freetype-config --cflags give you?
22:03:07  <Ammler> 9.19.3
22:03:31  <Rubidium> --cflags gives the version?
22:03:37  <Ammler> np
22:03:39  <Ammler> no
22:03:43  <Ammler> -I/usr/include/freetype2
22:04:18  <Nath> Does this mean a nightly server will be up soon =X?
22:04:33  <glx> and headers are there?
22:04:36  <Ammler> Nath: not dihs
22:05:07  <Nath> Ammler: dihs ?? (Sorry, newb here ^^)
22:05:12  <Ammler> I installed libfreetype-devel
22:05:47  <Ammler> Nath: there are always nightly servers up
22:05:50  <Rubidium> Ammler: sounds like libfreetype-devel is broken then
22:06:37  <Rubidium> Ammler: did you follow the wiki to the letter?
22:06:47  <Ammler> quite, yes.
22:06:54  <Ammler> I at least installed every pack
22:07:07  <Ammler> also the optional
22:07:13  <Nath> Ammler: For me there are 2, one is passworded, the other gives me "Game failed to load" error and the people i play with get the same error.
22:07:53  <glx> Nath: using r15549?
22:08:12  <Rubidium> Ammler: looking at the wiki page about cygwin you didn't follow it to the letter
22:08:23  <Nath> glx: yep
22:08:30  <Rubidium> Ammler: and I'm especially talking about point number twelve
22:08:38  <Ammler> just reading
22:08:41  <Ammler> :-)
22:09:18  <glx> hehe cygwin freetype is "broken"
22:09:38  <Ammler> hmm, don't i have symlinks in cygwin?
22:09:51  <Nath> scrap that, there is only the passworded server online now :( lol
22:09:54  <Rubidium> does Windows provide symlinks? if not, then no
22:09:58  <glx> or the compiler, because it should find headers in /usr/include without porblems
22:10:20  <Ammler> Nath: google for the servername
22:10:26  <Prof_Frink> Last time I played with it, cygwin treated .lnk files as symlinks
