Re: [Freeciv-Dev] OSX Cocoa SDL Universal Binary submitting
Thanks, good to hear that ! (sounds weird I was pretty sure I had to use some Tiger only technologies). I guess next step is embedding a Freeciv starter to be able to choose language, tilesets and such (just as Nathan did with his very nice X11/GTK port). As you may have notice, it installs datas the mac way (in ~/Documents/ Freeciv) and not the unix way (~/.freeciv), this will make it more easier for people to update, change or hack their tilesets and rulesets. After playing for a while with the SDL client, I went back to the GTK/ X11 client (not that I like X11) where things are easier to set (each city worklist), and clearier (reports ARE readable AND noticable). So I was wondering if some people were working on the SDL GUI as it seems it's not complete as yet? What is planned? May I help? cheers, François Marlier Le 6 juil. 07 à 03:37, Daniel Markstedt a écrit : Ok, it seems like somebody silently fixed the problem. Thank you whoever did it!

You might consider changing the wording in the installer where it says that 'Tiger' is required. :) Very good work indeed! ~Daniel On 7/5/07, Daniel Markstedt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Bonjour and tres bien! :) Unfortunately, the file is 'stuck' with the wrong permissions, so I can't download it.

So I was wondering if some people were working on the SDL GUI as it seems it's not complete as yet? What is planned? May I help? Well, in principle I'm working on it, but at the moment development has somewhat stalled as I'm too busy with my studies right now :-( My initial plan was to make the SDL client playable on the Pocket PC platform (320x240 resolution, touchscreen input, low resources), while also keeping it working on desktop systems that aren't able to run the GTK+ client well. I did not plan to implement all the advanced features that the GTK+ client has, as this would be just too much work considering the fact that the SDL client doesn't have an advanced widget set available, but of course it should provide all basic functionality like loading and saving games or setting server and client options in a dialog. Your help would be very much appreciated. You could, for example, try to fix some of the bugs in the SDL client that have been reported to the bug tracker (http://rt.freeciv.org/Search/Listing.html?ValueOfStatus=openStatusOp=%3DQueueOp=%3DValueOfQueue=10RowsPerPage=50NewSearch=1) or implement missing dialogs (like the one for loading games) or improve some of the existing dialogs (while ideally making/keeping them displayable at 320x240) or, if you are not familiar with C or coding at all, write some user documentation in the wiki (How to play with the SDL client or some such) or just make some mockups showing how missing dialogs could look like or existing dialogs could look better (again, ideally also fitting into a 320x240 screen). Or, last but not least, just test the client and report any bugs you can find. ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
