Glest Wiki Question Thread
« on: 7 May 2011, 19:41:46 »
This thread is for asking questions so we can place answers on the Glest Wiki. For example, I've run into road blocks before when making parts of articles where there is insufficient information.

So, to start this off, it doesn't look like there's many, if any, Linux users on the wiki, so I'll try and fill in the Linux paths myself. Where are Glest, MegaGlest, MegaGlest's user folder, GAE, and GAE's user folder located on Linux operating systems? Anyone know about Macs or FreeBSD?

As well, could someone with more technical experience in how GBM, MGM, and G3D work? GBM and G3D have very limited pages with almost direct snippets from the code, and could use some documentation on how they work. We could get some actual 3rd party tools like import/export scripts if people had better documentation.

More documentation on the file formats would definitly be useful...
I am currently running into problems exporting a model to g3d, and if I had a better understanding of this format, I could fix the model :-(
