Looks like there is an issue with the frame buffer device. Maybe this is helpful: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uvesafb > Also I'd like to ask two secondary questions: > I tried building for Visual studio as mentioned on a previous post, but the > resulting build is different from the one I would obtain on linux, as you > can see here: https://imgur.com/QznornV and https://imgur.com/1YZWULO > I've not been able to find the archer and mged executables, for example. > Whats going on here? They look very much the same. In case of Linux you have them in the build/Release/bin directory. You should look at the same directory under MS Windows too. However, I recommend to install the program. This is "make install" under Linux and building the INSTALL project under MS Visual Studio. You can set up the directory where it should put the files with CMake. > Can I change the color of the console text? I'm using Plasma with a dark > theme and blue text is difficult to read.
