BrogueCE

[Jochen Schäfer]

Hi.

I have just build a pre-release of BrogueCE. You find the binaries here: https://github.com/josch1710/BrogueCE/releases/tag/v1.10.1-os2.
Unzip the file. You find two binaries: One is for ncurses (needs a mode co100,34 or bigger), one is for SDL2 (needs SDL2 image, too).
Please report any issues back to me, here, as issue on Github or by email (os2@joschs-robotics.de).

Have fun.

Hi

It is the first time I hear about "BrogueCE". Allow me to add more context:

Brogue is a single-player strategy game set in the halls of a mysterious and randomly-generated dungeon. The objective is simple enough -- retrieve the fabled Amulet of Yendor from the 26th level -- but the dungeon is riddled with danger. Horrifying creatures and devious, trap-ridden terrain await. Yet it is also riddled with weapons, potions, and artifacts of forgotten power. Survival demands strength and cunning in equal measure as you descend, making the most of what the dungeon gives you. You will make sacrifices, narrow escapes, and maybe even some friends along the way -- but will you be one of the lucky few to return alive?

I will try it out hopefully tonight.

Regards

BTW: This seems to work: https://github.com/josch1710/BrogueCE. The "Downloads" link in README.md points to tmewett/BrogueCE. The GitHub site is horrible.

Yea, the README.MD needs updating. I assume those at tmewatt are not OS/2 binaries.

Interesting, I built the SDL2 version, it looks like what the ncurses version would likely look, eg text mode. Got killed by the jackal pretty quick. Have to play more.
For some reason I had to add "LDFLAGS=-Zomf" and I see unneeded EMXism "-D__ST_MT_ERRNO__" in the linker line. -D__ST_MT_ERRNO__ is a no-op as kLIBC only supports multi-thread library.

Until Jochen fixes his github, here's the sdl2 binary. Need the rpm versions of sdl2 and sdl2-image. It is not a release so just unzip and run from bin/

Hi

I checked Dave's file. (I needed a yum install SDL2_image)

Works nice, I need to read more the manual.

Regards.

Clicking your link, it says "There aren’t any releases here"

[Jochen Schäfer]

Sorry, my bad. I didn't recogize that the release was still a draft.
I fixed that and now everyone should see the bins.

Hi

The link now loads the webpage but no downloads showing, just the rotating "loading" indicator showing in the "Assets" section...

Is Daves latest Seamonkey no longer "compatible" with github?


Regards

Pete

[Jochen Schäfer]

 Most likely. Dooble works better with Github.

[Eugene Tucker]

The download fails in Dooble for me.

Same here. SeaMonkey won't load the assets and Dooble says the download was canceled after starting. I even tried moving the /home/.dooble profile out of the way, didn't help, something is buggy.
Edit: The Simplebrowser succeeded in downloading the zip.
Edit2: Actually it downloaded a broken zip

[Jochen Schäfer]

I just tested the ZIP under Windows. There the download is valid.

[Eugene Tucker]

Yes, it does work in Windows. I camn confirm.
