Title: Installing 'Contributions'
Post by: s_telios on 16 August 2007, 07:44:44

Hi, does anybody know how do I install the extra stuff?
In the installation folder there is a directory for the maps and another one for the tilesets. I guess that by simply copying the files in these directories the game will load them next time I want to play. However, I don't know what to do with the scenarios and the mods.

scenarios are only working in the newest version, which can be downloaded here: http://www.glest.org/glest_board/viewto ... 29&start=0 (http://www.glest.org/glest_board/viewtopic.php?t=1729&start=0)

if you are trying to install a mod, you can to copy things into the techtrees folder, an put in that location, which is needed (usually its position is in the readme, but you will install the units to the units folder, buildings into the buildings folder, etc.)

I guess I have to wait until 2.1 comes out, as the rc1 is for win users only. Thanks for the rest advises  ;)

You can download it from SVN.

Code: [Select]

svn co https://glest.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/glest/trunk glest
Then you have to change newlines from DOS style to Unix style
Software, what helps you is hd2u (http://hany.sk/~hany/software/hd2u/ (http://hany.sk/~hany/software/hd2u/))
Little script, what does that job(it needs hd2u). Run it in the glest direcotry:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
for i in `find . -type f |grep -v svn`
do
dos2unix < $i > tmp
mv tmp $i
done
