Permanent error in compiling Nexuiz SVN

[toneddu2000]

There is a permanent error in the svn trunk, every time I try to check out and compile it (I use FruitieX script for ubuntu, I don't know if it could be a problem), it returns me that error:

Code: Select all

compiling sbar.qc
in function Sbar_Score (line 1287),
sbar.qc:1291: warning: RETURN VALUE ALREADY IN USE
sbar.qc:1301: warning: RETURN VALUE ALREADY IN USE

in function CSQC_ctf_hud (line 27),
sbar.qc:2655: error: Unknown value "redflag_prevframe".
sbar.qc:2655: error: type mismatch for != (float and __variant)

make[1]: *** [csprogs.dat] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/toneddu/games/Nexuiz/trunk/data'
make: *** [qc] Error 2
Failed to build Nexuiz


What could it be?

EDIT: no one can answer me? I think this is a big deal, because I've always updated Nexuiz without efforts. Could it be a problem in the SVN trunk? Someone, please says something!!

What version of fteqcc are you using? If you download the 'latest' build of it, Nexuiz will not build. Instead you need to pull the latest fteqcc code from SVN and build it. There is a thread somewhere on this issue.

thx Ed!But I'm still confused!

If you download the 'latest' build of it, Nexuiz will not build. Instead you need to pull the latest fteqcc code from SVN and build it.

I didn't understand. Which has to be the 'latest' one?Fteqcc or Nexuiz?I commit svn check out of Nexuiz SVN at this address

http://svn.icculus.org/nexuiz/
Could you please post the link of the thread?

Your fteqcc is clearly outdated, you can get the one used in the official build there :
http://rm.endoftheinternet.org/~nexuiz/builds/

nexuizsource****.zip is the smaller archive (3.2 MB), it includes the file Nexuiz/sources/fteqcc-binaries-and-source-rev***.zip with binaries for all platform (windows, mac, and linux).

The official svn repo is :

Code: Select all

svn checkout https://fteqw.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fteqw/trunk/engine/qclib fteqcc

a huge thanks Ronan! It was fteqcc that was outdated! The only thing I don't understand is why devs used inside the SVN trunk an outdated version of fteqcc, instead of use the updated version!
thx again!

It's not outdated???

Fteqcc had some bugs that need to be fixed to work on nexuiz.

The best source to use for nexuiz is the nexuiz branch of http://github.com/Blub/qclib (if you know how to use git).
If you don't, just use the binary Ronan linked to

Thanks Mr. Bougo!

Well, I'll learn to use it!

Well actually, the latest FTEQCC from spikes checkout is perfectly stable now thanks to Blub.. The link is here: svn://fteqw.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot ... nk/engine/ --- And uses SVN, which is much easier to set up.
But anyway, do whichever you want. I personally prefer the SVN one because i'm on Windows and don't have easy access to use Git.

Sure, but for future developments the Git repo is certain to compile Nexuiz without errors.

Thanks Samual for that SVN link!I think I'll use it unless I learn GIT!
