[farcry-dev] RE: installing FarCry2.1.1 on BlueDragon 6.1beta3 - can it be done?

The quick answer is “no-one has done it”…… yet!   A workmate of mine is considering installing it first using the CFMX installer and then configuring BD to look at the existing install.  But he has not had a chance to do it yet.   If he actually gets it to work that way, his plan was to re-write the install (possibly with some manual patching required – or even some of the undocumented BD features) so it will work with BD.  There is a good possibility this will happen as he is in regular contact with Charlie Airhart.   So, if you want to wait until he manages to do that – or if you want to have a go at the same concept…….     Regards, Gary Menzel         -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bryan Nolen Sent: Thursday, 29 April 2004 10:50 PM To: FarCry Developers Subject: [farcry-dev] installing FarCry2.1.1 on BlueDragon 6.1beta3 - can it be done?   Short version: can it be done?   Long Version:   I just tried installing FarCry 2.1.1 on WinXP running BlueDragon 6.1beta3, but I hit a snag because the installer depends on some undocumented features in CFMX (namely access to Coldfusion.ServiceFactory) - is this the only place that these undoc's are used and can the automated installed (cool as it is...) be avoided and FarCry installed manually?   From some tests I've done, BlueDragon (now) supports all the most commonly used features of CFMX such as CFC's and the like, so there is no _real_ reason for it to fail - or is there?   Kudos on the great work by the way!   -Bryan.   PS: if this can work, my next project is to get it working on the Mac OSX version :)   Bryan Nolen Lead Developer, Arc.Net.Au Ph: 03 9499 2929 Fax: 03 9499 4545 Mobile: 0402 022 292 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://Arc.Net.AU http://cdonline.com.au   --- You are currently subscribed to farcry-dev as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to farcry-dev as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
