Here's my entry to the 2014 speedhack. E'th
{"name":"608630","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/5\/4\/54dafc9207ba595a5655a58cfefa8172.png","w":1206,"h":725,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/5\/4\/54dafc9207ba595a5655a58cfefa8172"} Blog. Competition version
Source. Post-competition fixes (fixes the fuel bug)
Source. Start with the 'BETH' mission set, as it's a mini-tutorial. 'BRADFORD' is in principle doable, 'IRA' might be impossible. Check out options.cfg file if you find fullscreen/music to be objectionable. It's actually not too bad to compile this from source (as long as you get everything at the revisions mentioned in the Readme) if you have some time to kill... either way, I'll make some static Linux binaries tomorrow. If anybody observes this working on WinXP, please tell me, as I've went through some pains to patch the Rust runtime just for you Thanks to Matthew for hosting the event..

Gosh darn it, I keep forgetting that the audio addon dynamically loads some libraries! Seems like a nice feature, but nightmarish for getting the distribution right. I've updated the download with the missing files. Glad I got the dialog addon working "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

Don't we have a cmake option to disable the dynamic loading? -- |

Wouldn't do me much good, as I'd have to remember to turn it on. Anyway, I just created a 64 bit Linux binary with statically linked Allegro (see OP). I had to fix a small bug in RustAllegro, but the game code is unaffected. "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

I thought that compiling an universal Linux binary was 100% impossible. I tried on xubuntu and I get: task '<unnamed>' failed at 'Could not init audio addon', /home/siege/src/rust/src/libstd/option.rs:167
Why am I seeing that directory? {"name":"608645","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/5\/b\/5b05a00e86335bd4934f5ea383b4e553.png","w":483,"h":179,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/5\/b\/5b05a00e86335bd4934f5ea383b4e553"} Oh BTW I played your game on Windows, it works perfectly there. I was just curios about this, I wanted to know if it could run out of the box on Linux, I'm interested in doing something like this with my game.

I'm playing E'th right now and its pretty cool. I'm on the level with 4 stars in a diamond and 4 ships around them and I don't have enough fuel to reach both sides. It's really hard to break out of the center with out using fuel or only slingshoting it around a star, but that's hard because of the large centralized gravity well the four stars provide. So far I've bought a better camera and a fuel tank and that's all I could afford. Screenie :
{"name":"608646","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/d\/1\/d166e0cbc05958d3c1c7a27595fe7bef.png","w":1280,"h":800,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/d\/1\/d166e0cbc05958d3c1c7a27595fe7bef"} It was on Bradford mission.

Oh damn... there's a bug when you reset the mission, all your bonus fuel is gone... I suppose if you're awesome you could do everything on the first try, but this sort of makes fuel upgrades pointless for the rest of us... That said... it is possible to win that mission with just camera upgrades (which are unaffected by the bug). AMCerasoli said: I thought that compiling an universal Linux binary was 100% impossible. It's not too bad (I compiled on a Debian Stable VM), but clearly it needs some testing... (it did work on my Ubuntu). I'm not sure why it fails to init the audio addon Quote: Why am I seeing that directory? The failure messages take into account the directory where the file was built... same thing happens with debug info.

This is cool! I took care of 'BETH' pretty easily, but can only manage the first level of IRA!

You wouldn't be able to compile it without DUMB even if it was in C/C++ EDIT: allegro.cc's having trouble with attachments at the moment, so I can't link to it (although try this post's paperclip icon), but I think I have fixed the WinXP issue once and for all.

Gideon Weems said: Arthur, you should consider installing DUMB regardless, as DUMB is awesome. I always turn off in-game music, if possible. It's distracting. OTOH, if I did want to listen to music while playing a game, I'd rather play my own choices with vlc or whatever. I remember downloading and installing the Quake I shareware demo so many years ago, and Led Zeppelins "Houses of the Holy" was in the cd drive, and I thought "Hot damn this game has some good music in it!" Until I wondered why it was so familiar... They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

Arthur Kalliokoski said: I always turn off in-game music, if possible. If that's true, then you're missing out! Sometimes--not all the time but sometimes--a soundtrack brings the game to an entirely different level. I do appreciate the option to turn off in-game music, though, particularly with games that treat their music as an afterthought (as opposed to an integral part of the experience). |

Gideon Weems said: I get the same audio init error as AMCerasoli (running Debian Stable). Yeah, something's wonky with the audio addon, I think. It really shouldn't be failing... I'll investigate later today. EDIT: What's happening is that PulseAudio is failing, for some reason. I could enable ALSA, but that introduces massive lag which sort of defeats the purpose of having sound in the first place... Do other Allegro games/examples work with sound on your systems?

We may have uncovered something, as I don't even have Pulse on my system. A lot of people don't these days. It's unnecessary and has been known to cause all sorts of conflict issues. The Allegro examples (and other SpeedHack entries with sound, including mine) work fine. I tried ex_audio_simple using sound effects from E'th. Is there a collection examples specific to the D bindings? |

ALSA should have less lag than PA. Since PA uses ALSA underneath. -- |

Gideon Weems said: We may have uncovered something, as I don't even have Pulse on my system. That'd explain it, as I only configured my Allegro to have OSS and PA. Thomas Fjellstrom said: ALSA should have less lag than PA. Since PA uses ALSA underneath. I'm just relaying what I observed... maybe when Allegro asks for ALSA on the systems I tested, it instead gets the PA ALSA emulation. Still, this suggests that on systems without PA ALSA might be tolerable... I've updated the binaries to also have the ALSA backend enabled.
