Programming / Re: ClassiCube porting thread
« on: May 09, 2024, 11:40:52 pm »
Lars,

 Tried these files, but ClassiCube still crashes when I try to open a file dialog in it. I can confirm that the exception list does not work with these - even with classicube-dev.exe in the exception list it crashes. I tried with both the 2017 and 2024 versions of all eCoSoft run time files.

 The fact an exception list was added kinda implies this problem was known, but not fixed for some reason. Maybe you could contact the author to find out why?

Regards,

Lars,

 I do have FOC set to scan only local drives. Tried backlevelling the 3 eCoSoft runtimes to the 2017 versions - rebooted - but no change. Classicube still crashes when a file dialog appears, but if I add it to the FOC exception list, it works. Maybe the newer PMEX.DLL is at fault? It does have a build level string:

Lars,

 On ArcaOS, 'Computer'-> 'System Setup' -> 'Workplace Shell' -> FOC tab to setup FOC. Page 2 has the exception list. Don't remember if eCS has that or not...

Hey Lars,

  I think I might have tried running ClassiCube several times, so the multiple traps in POPUPLOG may be one for each attempt. But in any case, it can be avoided by putting 'classicube-dev.exe' in the FOC 'do not use' list...

Regards,

Hi Jochen,

  I gave the new build a try and it looks a lot better than the last! Sound works too. I have the eCoSoft runtimes installed, so did as you asked and when I clicked on 'load file' a file choosing dialog briefly appears, then disappears and the game window disappears too. Get a popuplog, but no message. The initial Classicube window stays up though and can start a new game right away. Popuplog attached - thanks!

Regards,

EDIT: I added 'classicube-dev.exe' to the FOC 'do not use' list and now it doesn't crash until I hit 'Quit', then I get a message dialog saying:

Crash time: 08/05/2024 06:17:37
ClassiCube crashed.
Reason: Unhandled signal SIGSEGV (code -2147471358) at 05830000

 Hi Jochen,

 Got it working - didn't realize I needed to install the Doom.wad file separately (it was included in your first alpha version). It works great, sound and mouse work well, everything worked that I tried... nice work, thanks!

Hi Jochen,

  No matter what I do, I can't seem to get this running at all. I installed with the RPM and it worked well, it also installed a folder with program object and 'Readme' file. The 'Readme' file will not open with a double click (must right click and choose text) because of the '*.command-line' suffix. The program object very briefly hatches, then nothing - no POPUPLOG, no exceptq file no error message. Command line start does not show any message - just returns to prompt. Do I need to create a 'Boom.cfg' file first?

Regards,

Hi Jochen,

  This last version does open the browser on the register page - thanks!

Hi Jochen,

  Tried this new version of classicube, and trying to register, the web browser (SeaMonkey in this case) does open, but it opens on my home page, not the registration page.

  I use IAIUtil to edit the web apps in OS2.INI (IAI_1.0.9.2 on Hobbes). It requires the VPREXX.DLL runtime (found in VisiPro Rexx also on Hobbes).

Regards,

Jochen,

  'Save' and 'Load' seems to work fine here as far as I can tell. I saved 2 different levels and restored them a couple of times each and it always worked.

Jochen,

 I gave ClassiCube a try and here I was able to run a single-player game - couldn't register for the server. Getting around 10fps, and can move the view by moving the mouse. Rendering is not very clear, I can't even tell what it is supposed to be showing - similar to what Martin shows. Sound and Music do not work (and can't be changed from a value of '0'). I tried all the setup parameters, but nothing helped. Not familiar with this game, so not sure how to play it...

Regards,

P.S. Did you ever finish PRBoom?

 Hi Christech,

 Go to www.arcanoae.com, then 'Resources' -> 'Downloads' -> 'Experimental Builds' and get the AMOUSE driver there. This one helped me with a laptop that the mouse would not work on...

 Greg,

  That's what I have been doing:

/* Rexx script to shut down Apache */

pid = linein("logs\httpd.pid")
kill.exe pid

 in a CMD file originally installed by AMP for OS/2 way back when. Never tried the apachectl way until you posted. There is an Apache for OS/2 google group you could post on to see if anyone there has experience with apachectl...

Greg,

  Oops! forgot the 'sh' I now get this:

[C:\programs\apache24\bin]sh apachectl -k stop
apachectl: 101: apachectl: /apache24/bin/httpd: not found

 Definitely something not right...

EDIT: after editing apachectl to have the correct HTTPD directory listed, if I try 'sh apachectl -f /Programs/apache24/conf/httpd.conf -k stop' I get an 'killed by SIGSEGV'  exceptq trap file...
