Hopefully, if all go's well Romans 2.0 will be released tonight, or rather this morning.........

Will keep you posted:
News:
Romans has some errors but they're being fixed.
2.0: All but balance
2.1+:Balance/other updates
Possible 3.0: Historical refit(if the community is willing to input on this)

EDIT//: Nevermind, I can't get GAE to run and when Glest crashes it doesn't give any errors, the screen just goes black, I have an unknown error...........

Omega, please make the GAE installer soon! I hate it, I try to use GAE and it just beeps at me.

And don't forget to check if any of your buildings/units have massive textures / models!

Well, it's not going to happen until I have some good way to find the error with the faction.

OT: Could someone send me installation instruction for GAE 2.12a.
I did what I though I was supposed to do but it didn't work.

Well, to compile from svn try this
Code: [Select]
cd /tmp
svn co https://glestae.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/glestae/trunk glest-svn
the change to /mk/linux in that file and type:
Code: [Select]
chmod a+x autogen.sh
./autogen.sh
./configure
jam
That will give you the binary.

An installer for GAE 0.2.12a was just finished today! ;)

However, you know the drill. At its filesize (70MB!) it will need a little time so I can get the access to upload it. Honestly, I wish my school had WiFi. It used to, but some idiot removed it and converted all the school computers to being wired. Ugh. Stupid, inconvenient, and messy!

To install it the hard way, download the zip provided by silnarm that has the windows binary and the lua dll, then download the new GAE data files and put both of these in the glest directory. Now take all your scenarios and place them in the gae/scenarios folder. To fix language errors, open the gae/data/language folder and copy en.lng, naming it english.lng. I can't remember, but it may be neccessary to add 'english=English' to the language list txt file there.

Hope that helps. If not, just wait for the installer. It installs EVERYTHING needed, so that GAE can work standalone. It also has the option to install FPM (and you may as well, since that is included with the installer). I hoped to add downloads for some of the major mods with it too, but it only works with zip files, and no one uses zip archiving for their mods anymore...

I'll try changing the .lng file, because I didn't do that, but I'll just wait for the installer if GAE still doesn't work.

By the way I'm trying to run it on my laptop.

Well, I have a LOT of things to upload. Here's my priorities:

1. Glest Guide
2. Military (windows installer)
3. Military (TBZ2 with windows executable)
4. Military Files (no executables or DLLs)
5. GAE 0.2.12a
6. Glest Tool Kit
7. Romans Website (under construction)
8. Military (linux binary standalone) - NEED HELP!
9. Military (linux binary with files) - NEED HELP!

BTW, I've just started your Romans Website. I drew up a nice shiny little concept on a piece of paper. I'll get to work today and try to post something soon. My printer isn't working, so I can't scan the image, but I'll describe it. It's basically a top part, with columns on each side and a bottom part that has the footer. Total width ends up as 700, allowing for some versatility among smaller browsers. Of course, you need a minimum of 900 pixels width to view, which is great, since I've never seen anything under 1024.

Expect an HTML layout soon.

BTW, I need a logo and exactly 9 800x600 images (scale screen shots to get this resolution, no bigger).

Also, any ideas for content that I wouldn't normally put on is necessary.

Well, I'm not sure, once I get a working version of Romans 2, then I can get you those pics.
Speaking of which, do you have the time to diagnose Roman2's problem?
I have a Windows laptop, but I can't get any error messages out of it, and my attempts to install GAE have failed.

Installers?  What do you need installers for if it's just a faction?

IDK, it's fun to make them, and some of the newbies/guests don't know how to install mods.

Well, here's the basic for your site. Please hurry up with those pictures, since you notice that I have a few placeholders, including the logo at the top, all the pictures, and the strip image at the bottom, which I'm debating between making either a ad for the Glest Guide or a roman's image. Leaning towards an ad, since I could use additional publicy...

Very nice webpage, of course, the front and bottom of the columns suck, and I'll have to try to improve that (maybe) in the future (or not) unless you want to (your site!). Please tell me what you think. Recommended resolution: 1024x768 - 1280x800.

Also, notice some of the link placeholders, such as the download links and images. Of course, tell me if you want anything changed. Also, I dislike waiting to finish something that I've already started, so if time allows, please make this your priority!

PS: I must admit, FireFTP is the best thing I've ever used. Solves my downloading problems too!

Ok, forget the Installers, they won't work properly, and they screwed up my Glest, so no installer, and also none for the Moon mod either..........
I'm going to try working with InstallJammer instead.
But I will upload the raw files sometime tomorrow.

I can't download beta 2. Please use filefront. Ask modman for pass and username.

I haven't actually downloaded it yet, and I can take the images once I do.

Why do you need BETA 2?
Also I will reupload to upload.ps, I use it instead of filefront.
And you should be able to download it from there, is the current link to sourceforge???

EDIT: .rar download: MegaUpload
          .7z download: Upload.ps

I presume you were trying to download the 7-zipped version.........

Latest News:

Roman Faction 2.0 release:
Date: This weekend.
First I will release the raw files, and then I will make an installer for Windows, and possibly Linux or MAC.
I know an installer isn't needed but for newbies, and people who don't know where to install things on the computer here's an easy way to install the Romans mod.
Don't expect the installer because it might not come.

Romans Faction 2.x or 3.0 release:
Date: UNKNOWN
Installers: Hopefully
Balance updates, other........

Romans Hopes/Dreams:
Historical Version
Some sort of Counter Faction
Scripted Scenarios.

Message to Eliminator: Please send me all the .blends for the Roman faction as soon as you can.

My school blocks upload.ps as 'Peer to Peer', but filefront works. MegaUpload goes at 20kbs, too slow.

PLEASE USE FILEFRONT. What have you got against it? It uploads ultra fast (for me at least).
