Announcing OpenTyrian

[AntX]

HOLY FRIGGIN' MOTHERSHIP!

The thing is actually playable now!!!

I can't believe my eyes.

Okay, you can't pickup anything since colisions don't work just YET... and you can't even press ESC to quit... but that's one HECK of an evolution there.

I can shoot at things!!! And that sir, made my day.

You definitely made progress.

Ha, also, Is there a way to donate?

[malariax]

Now you can pick the objects and the enemies can destroy you

[ryancordell]

There should be something about this written. Anywho, first time compiler, when I tried to compile Tyrian (Making my own project along the way), I get this odd error about a stdbool.h file not being 'opened' in it's include directory. Installed the SLD and all that stuff, but the google code page for the Tyrian source code doesn't list anything else. Sorry if I sound like a total idiot, but where would I go/what would I download to be able to access that so I can get to have a compiled Tyrian?

[yuriks]

ryancordel: That's a recent change (last revision at the time of writing actually =P) I made. What OS and compiler are you using?

And I managed to break the weapon simulation in the buy/sell screen. Peh.

I expect it to start taking shape as complete soon, now that we have our coding force back (me and syntaxglitch, also I think MindlessXD isn't feeling sick anymore =P)

What I think needs to be done:
- In game menus (Mindless and me and syntax)
- Networking (hard! We don't have part of the source for that) (Probably me and syntax)
- destruct ( probably Mindless or Zinglon)
- Many bugs in the buy/sell screen (you may noticed timing and input is all shittied up in some places) (me and syntax)
- Some work on the sound and music code (syntax, I may do it if it ends up taking too long xD)
- Bugs on the level script parsing/running(?), as well as some gameplay bugs (Mindless)
- Some special screen effects (Mindless)
- And oh yeah, enemy shots =P (again, Mindless)

Expected release date: Hopefully, earlier than 2010. (Hehe, just kidding, if nothing major sets us back, somewhere this year.)

I would like to give special thanks for MindlessXD, for basically doing 90% of What Matters­­TM on the project, this would have never took off if it weren't for you. =]

(WARNING: The views above are solely my own and do not represent the views of the rest of the team. Woot woot!)

PS: TheLastZica, we're still wondering where you went.

[ryancordell]

Windows XP and the Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition program. Mainly because I really suck at working with MinGW and such programs. ;D;;

[yuriks]

Ah, that would be why. I don't think it compiles with Visual C++ right now. I would suggest trying MinGW. You can try to get it working by looking around on the project settings and tell it that it's compiling C99 code instead of C++ code (which I believe is the default), if that doesn't works, TRY deleting the #include <stdbool.h> line (C++ has bool builtin), but the rest of the code may or may not compile properly.

[ryancordell]

Commenting/deleting out the stdbool.h include line would make a mass amount of errors though.

[yuriks]

Not really, like I said, C++ has bool builtin.

[cryolithic]

It does cause a number of errors, however, if you change the typdef of the JE_bool to char or int, then
#define true 1
#define false 0

it should work exactly the same.

Now if I can get the linker problem working so I can run it through the visual studio debugger

Do you guys actually have sound working? When I compile it on the linux box, I get no sound.

[ryancordell]

I did as I said and changed the typedef of JE_boolean from.. Whatever it was towards int (and once to char too), way less errors than before, but it still won't compile successfully. I defined the true and falses too.
I kinda feel sorry for you guys putting up with a noob like me.

(I think there ought to be a spoiler tag here, would greatly shorten things like this down while still keeping the technical info intact..)

first, in opentyr.h replace line 32 with

#define STUB() printf("!!! STUB: %s:%d\n", __FILE__, __LINE__)

since __func__ seems to be causing trouble

[Mindless]

the only errors I see in there are about inttypes.h being missing (apparently not important to your compiler?) and about opentyrian.c line 162, which is valid c99... so I dunno

[ryancordell]

Well, not exactly happyness. Means I might as well have to wait for both 'ports' of Tyrian to come out. While I won't mind, it's somewhat saddening. Although Rebuilding the source gives me more errors than Building does. Odd, but not sure why the source has to be this stubborn to be compilable under a simple.. well, compiler.

[Mindless]

Probably because it's Visual Studio ;P It compiled fine in MinGW, last time I checked.
