Compiling soulfu

absolutezero1287 · 2009-02-04 10:49:59

Info about the game
http://gwos.org/doku.php/games:alphabetical:s:soulfu

The game's website
http://www.aaronbishopgames.com/

Soulfu's subversion repo
http://soulfu.motherhamster.org/

svn checkout http://soulfu.motherhamster.org/source/Trunk/ ~/Builds/soulfu

Os so I got the source but the author didn't include a makefile or anything. The games looks cool with its nice cell shaded graphics. How would I go about building it from source? I'm guessing that I would need a makefile but since there isn't one included I'd have to write my own. I've never written a makefile before. Can anyone help?

EDIT: There's a file under trunk/util named src.compiler.c
It looks like that may be it but I'm not sure.

Check out Egoboo in the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15209
Compiling should be fairly similar to SoulFu, as it is from the same author.

Egoboo has a makefile where soulfu doesn't. I figured that I'd have to write my own makefile but seeing as how they're different games and are organized differently I wouldn't know where to begin.

Interesting. I really know very little about high level programming so I may need some help writing the Makefile. Anyone?

SanskritFritz · 2009-02-12 12:31:31

I'm actually planning to make a package on AUR, but at the moment, I'm very busy with other things, so this has to wait.

SanskritFritz · 2009-02-12 12:52:25

Alternatively, you can download a deb or rpm package, extract it, and run the binary.

Ok, thanks again!

cisforcojo · 2009-02-26 17:32:53

I could give you the 1.5 linux version if you like. It's incredibly fun but frustrating though!!!
I'm looking into compiling the SVN version myself and I believe the benefits of that are they have added game saves and other bonuses. The game is actually very very hard -- designedly so, and the controls don't help at all.

I'll let you know if I get anywhere with the SVN.

SanskritFritz · 2009-02-26 20:51:31

cisforcojo would you care to upload an AUR package?

absolutezero1287 · 2009-02-26 21:26:02

That would be a great idea.

cisforcojo · 2009-02-26 21:59:23

Hmm.. there is a very ambiguous licensing situation with SoulFu right now. It's certainly not free (libre) but the creator openly encourages modding. It's listed as "nice-ware". If I ever figure out this damned code, I'll give it a shot! My programming skills really are subpar.

absolutezero1287:
To get you on the same page as me, there are already Makefile's included in the svn.
Check out Branches/Coz/Trunk/build/unix and Branches/Coz/rev4/build/unix

So far I can get 'rev4' to compile fine, but I'm having a terrible time compiling 'Trunk'. Here is my output:

The error has to do with this type 'Uint32' and I can't figure out where it's being defined. As I said, my programming skills are really not up to par for this. I have been working on this for 3 hours hehe.

I'm still learning C++ so I would be about as useful as a poopie flavored lolipop. (I saw the movie yesterday).

cisforcojo · 2009-02-26 23:06:17

Well check out rev4. You should at least be able to play the game after you build it; no programming required for that.

I recommend you do NOT run 'make install' though. Follow the instructions in the rev4 directory for howto build it for if you don't install it.

absolutezero1287 · 2009-02-26 23:16:54

@cisforcojo: Definitely.

cisforcojo · 2009-02-27 05:42:11

You get it to work? If so, are you having problems with the net code?
I live in China so I never know if it's their firewall...

Gen2ly · 2009-03-20 02:49:59

There's this version which someone has been good enough to work on for *nix systems:

http://www.soulfu.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=148

I'm able to build it:

cd build/unix/
cp ../../sdf/datafile.sdf .

SoulFu requires:

extra/libvorbis
? extra/libjpeg
? extra/sdl
extra/sdl_net

SoulFu does start with ./soulfu but will quit with a segmentation fault (likely because I'm running a 64bit system without 32bit libraries). Haven't tried but saw a good guide to running 32bit binaries on a 64bit system at the World of Goo forum.

SanskritFritz · 2009-03-31 06:38:04

Thanks for the hint, I'll try this myself as time permits.

Thanks to finferflu, there is an AUR version now. I'n going to try it, and report back.

handy · 2009-08-08 14:07:27

I tried the AUR version with no luck, I modified the PKGBUILD to tell it I'm on 64bit Arch.

I also copied the modified the PKGBUILD as recommended in the comments to suit 64bit, but I still get no response when I call soulfu?
