Noggit is Open Source again!

After two years of lurking in the dark, noggit sdls source code finally sees daylight again!

It had a more or less bad time there. neither it was feeded nor it was beloved.
But u can change that: if your skilled in c++ u can help us clean up this mess

Feel free to create pull requests at bitbucket.
Permanent access will be granted as soon as we see that u are capable of programming.
(sorry about that but there are to much people out there which just pretend)
The branch containing the latest (1.3) source is named "sdl"

Furthermore i started to rewrite/refactor noggit from ground up. I will publish the src i already have soon (TM).
As above everyone is invited to participate.

Some general information. Pre-caution I guess ?

Current branch: SDL

Those that want to compile Noggit on their own, a list containing links to the required libaries is following.
- Refer to list contained in repo until further notice.
Instructions are following.
Pull Requests are welcomed, however expect criticism and (to some degree) blunt declination to features, additions, bug-fixes or other contributions.
- Permanent access, as previously mentioned, can be gained by positive contribution. Pull Requests are a good way to prove that and contribute positively.
Pre-caution, as always, it's open source. Keep that in mind and we are all good. If someone does something bad, okay, but if it's a way to start, someone else can pick it up and improve it.

That is all. Your friendly (Mod)-craft.

Oh yeah. Good work guys.

Thanks for opening it back up!

I've successfully compiled it on OS X, but can't get it running. I think I might have missed a compile option for specifying config file location or something, I'm not sure.

What happens is that once launched, it simply drops a "FT_New_Face failed" error and quits. This error is usually associated with corrupt MPQs or missing fonts (all three needed fonts are installed) but I know that's not the case because WINE-wrapped SDL 1.3 for Windows uses the same 3.3.5 folder with zero problems.

Where does noggit look for config files on non-Windows systems? Where does it drop its log? I was only able to find out the above because I launched it via terminal.

In its aplication folder. Youneed osx binarys i think. Some should add asx and linux bin folder to project repo.

As i never used Mac in my life longer than a hour or sth i honestly have no idea where the inital cwd is set to.
schlumpf would know that.

The code compiles perfectly into a nice mac binary wrapped in an application package; that's no problem. It just doesn't seem to be picking up the config file sitting right next to it or producing any kind of log file for some reason.

I was wondering.... Which libraries I must install if I want to compile it in Ubuntu 12.04, and which steps I must follow to compile it? (Branch SDL 1.3)

Thanks!

cMake tells you every missing lib.

I am having a little trouble finding this list.

Look in CMakeLists.txt. Or just run cmake and it will tell you.

You should make a list of what versions of the libaries we need i have some trouble getting this to work

Steff · « **Reply #12 on:** January 22, 2015, 04:52:24 am »

Cmake normaly tell you what you need. Always newest version beside sdl. Therelatest 1.x version.

Actually, you also need to know which MVS you're using for compiling Noggit. Compiling it in MVS 2013 (which I use) can produce a lot of warnings (100 - 5k), but they don't actually mean anything. I tried compiling it in the earlier versions and it worked fine there. So, just don't look at them.
And another tip on compiling. As far as I remember there is a lib that does not have the includes folder in it. It is probably StormLib, but I don't remember already. There is a folder called src which contains all the files you need but you can't really use the src folder in cmake as an includes path. So, just make a folder named includes and place all the files there.
If you still have problems, you can contact me on skype live:skarnproject and I will help you getting this to work.
