I guess someone should delete/replace that readme-folder in the archive as well as change this wiki page to remove all those instructions if they are not correct. It is very tempting to believe they are!

I just don't feel qualified to do the instructions... I probably could do instructions for Kubuntu 14 (which is what I have installed on my PC since a few months), but if someone is using a different distribution, the instructions might not work...

We provide "foolproof" instructions for Windows users, and hope that Linux users know what they are doing...

After compiling as above, I copied over the OpenXcom/bin/openxcom executable (that I just make'd) to the piratez-folder from the archive, and that ran as far as showing the intro movie and playing music, but then hung HARD, I couldn't even switch to virtual console or nothing, had to do hard reset. So I guess that was not the right thing to do ^__^'

Edit: If I get this to work, I will make sure to write something about it, that you can put there. Poor linux people! Anyway, instructions for Kubuntu would be fine, all the *ubuntu flavours work the same at that level I should think. And that is the most popular distribution.

Edit2: reading along in that thread you mentioned, I seem to have gotten the right executable after all. So why does it hang so badly on me :( This is what I've done:

1. extract archive with 0.99 piratez
2. add GEODATA etc. into UFO (patched and all)
3. compile Meridians OpenXCom to get the openxcom executable
4. put it in the piratez-folder (it has the right permissions set).

Shouldn't that work?

I don't know if it'll help for you, but I've had some success by using command line parameters to make sure I'm using the user and config files supplied by Dioxine.  Try running the executable with

Code: [Select]
./OpenXcomEx -user "./user" -config "./user"
Replace ./OpenXcomEx with the executable name if it's something different for you, and make sure the OpenXcom_XPiratez folder you downloaded has options.cfg in the OpenXcom_XPiratez/user folder.

Edit:  I generally create a bash script to run those command line parameters, placed in the same folder as the executable, just so I don't have to type the parameters every time.

Well, it was promising - it started up properly with your suggestion to include the paths, and the initial "Loading openxcom 1.0 dev", but it got stuck there. Mega stuck again, had to hard reset and no log was written  :'(

Perhaps there is something wrong with the config I have in the ./user folder? :

Perhaps ohartenstein23 can post his executable, and I could try it out?

Perhaps I should work on the one supplied by Meridian instead, I get this error with it:

Spoiler:
simon@simon-Aspire-E5-521G:~/games/OpenXcom_XPiratez$ ./OpenXcomExPlusElf -user "./user" -config "./user"
./OpenXcomExPlusElf: symbol lookup error: ./OpenXcomExPlusElf: undefined symbol: _ZN4YAML6detail9node_data12empty_scalarE

Any suggestions?

The config looks a little strange on a few lines under mods:, where the id: and active: tags seem to be reversed.  Try switching the following lines

Code: [Select]
  - active: false
    id: XcomUtil_Always_Daytime

  - active: false
    id: XcomUtil_Starting_Defensive_Base

  - active: false
    id: altSGC

  - active: true
    id: piratezNaughtyMod

with

Code: [Select]
  - id: XcomUtil_Always_Daytime
    active: false

  - id: XcomUtil_Starting_Defensive_Base
    active: false

  - id: altSGC
    active: false

  - id: piratezNaughtyMod
    active: true

Here's a link to my executable:

I did the replacements as you suggested, to no avail, no difference. It says "Loading OpenXCom 1.0 Dev ..." with a blinking cursor, then the cursor stops blinking, and then BAM, totally dead. Hard reset. Thank you for the executable - its compiled for 64-bit, so no go there (I am on 32-bit). Perhaps that is the problem? Any other suggestions? Is there a checksum for the archive of piratez that I could check, in case it was corrupted?

Do you even have the correct source code?
Can you please locate the "version.h" file and copy-paste the whole file here please? So that I can check if it's the right version...

EDIT:
You should not see "Loading OpenXcom 1.0 Dev ...", it should be "Loading OpenXcom Extended 2.9+ ..." ... see screenshot.
After loaded, it should look something like attached.

This probably mean that you lack correct yaml lib used by Meridian binary. If you have already installed `yaml-cpp` (e.g. something like `apt-get install libyaml-cpp0.5`) then you have incompatible version.

Hey Meridian, do you know offhand what version of the yaml library you're using?  Or, could you post the output from listing the package in an Ubuntu terminal, using a command like

Code: [Select]
dpkg -l | grep libyaml

Version I use to compile the Windows binary is the one from the master branch (definitely after v0.5.3, already without boost), checked out from github on March 28th 2016.
Commit ID: 178c8d1f276afeec006e2c4e1dfa979c1f9d2a3c

As for the output of the command you provided, see attached screenshot.

Hmm, I just clicked on that system update message you see above... tried to update the system... and the system didn't survive it.
I get until login screen and after that just blackness and mouse cursor... can't do anything at all.
Any ideas?

Those are the same version of the yaml library that I have, although you have the 32-bit ones (i386).  @buenaventura, what do you get as output from the same command?  Did you install the dev version before compiling (libyaml-cpp-dev)?

As for the system update, I haven't ever run a linux system as a virtual machine, and I don't have any experience with Kubuntu, so... somebody else got an idea?

Edit:  @Meridian, wait, try pressing Ctl+Alt+F1 when you get to the mouse cursor?  That should bring up terminal-style input/output without the graphical desktop environment, it may help you troubleshoot from there.  After that, google's knowledge is better than mine at fixing this one.

Yeah, no need for ideas anymore I think... I tried to repair it, but now I get just a few hexadecimal octets at start without command prompt, login screen or anything interactive. It's dead. RIP.

This means I won't be releasing new versions for a few weeks (unless I ask someone else to compile), until I will have time and nerves to reinstall everything again.

Ouch, time to add Meridian's Kubuntu virtual box to the memorial wall.

If you'd like, I could compile for 64-bit Ubuntu distribution, but you'd probably have to find somebody else for 32-bit... @buenaventura, have you got it to work yet on your system?
