Linux Map Editor

[frogimus]

First, I apologize if this has already been answered somewhere. Most of my search terms are 3-letter words (map, CVS, etc) and are not allowed by forum configuration.

 

I cannot get the binary mapeditor to work on my 64-bit Linux machine. Is there a CVS of the latest editor I can compile myself? I've seen a lot of links to a dead (or re-numbered) thread.

 

Thanks for your time

If you pulled the 'elc' module (EL Client) from CVS, there is a 'map_editor' module at the same location. You need both elc and map_editor, since the latter refers into '../elc' for some files. I managed to build the map editor from the HEAD on 32bit linux the other week -- a first for quite a while!

The Windows Map Editor has worked for me fine under AMD64 & Linux with Wine. Give that a try, not sure how successful it is with creating full-blown maps, but it at least runs.

EDIT: discalimer: although it compiles for me, I haven't actually tried it, so I can't tell you if it acually works

[Drakos7]

Compiles and starts. I can load maps, 2d objects, ground tiles. But if I try to add a 3d object it segfaults once I click OK in the dialog box.

(mapedit.x86.linux.bin:18774): Gtk-WARNING **: idle activate multiple times without clearing the folder object first.
Segmentation fault

Sometimes it just segfaults without the gtk error. Not much time to debug right now.

 

edit: found a link but it is never answered. http://lists-archives.org/gtk/06045-filech...ject-first.html

It is listed as an active GTK+ bug here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447984

This is what I get trying to compile the map_editor

[Drakos7]

Ok, the error I was getting was because I am on a different machine than usual. I had forgotten to install EL 1.4.0 on it because the office firewall prevents me from playing the game in the first place. Once I upgraded my files things worked just fine. Now I need to find a more recent map making tutorial...

[frogimus]

OK, I got it this far. Any ideas?

OK, also had to add -DGL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES

[Krones]

~/map_editor/main.c:46: undefined reference to `end_particles_list' 
~/map_editor/main.c:46: undefined reference to `end_particles_list'

I have noticed there's no prototype to it, neither in EL nor in the map editor.

[Grum]

Should be fixed now, thanks.

[Krones]

~/map_editor/particles_window.c:573: undefined reference to 'get_and_set_particle_texture_id'

[Grum]

Update the client as well, that function is defined in particles.c from elc.

[Krones]

Thx Grum! it compiled... but it's weird

it shows a white thing, and the buttons (I think that are the buttons) are just some blue squares on top.

Thx for the help so far.

[Grum]

I think the problem is that the map editor is searching for the data files in the wrong directory. You'll have to edit mapedit.ini and point #data_dir to your EL installation directory.

[Krones]

Yay! it works! Thx alot Grum

[Daegun]

Any help for a newb on the command to compile the editor? I've tried most other commands with no luck.

 

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 and have compiled other packages without issue.

 

Thanks in advance!

[Grum]

Quick guide:

• Check out the source code for both the client and the map editor:
  

  cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.elc.berlios.de:/cvsroot/elc co elc map_editor
  

  
  

• make sure the client code is in a directory called elc in the same folder as the directory containing the map editor code (or make a symbolic link).
  
• Copy Makefile.linux to a new file Makefile, and edit it for your system. Most likely, the only thing you will want to do is replace "-mcpu=i686" with "-mcpu=athlon64" if you're running on an amd64 system.
  
• Enter

  make

  , and complain in the bugs or programming forum when you encounter an error (and include the error message!) Alternatively, if you don't have to make any changes to the makefile, you can skip step 2, and simply do a

  make -f Makefile.linux

  
  

Without further information on what you did and which errors you encounter, we cannot help you.

P.S. I could compile with no error the client ... just in case u ask :-)

[Grum]

*scratches head*

Hmm, doesn't happen here. I'll have to do some bug hunting to see how misc.h from elc ends up in that file...

 

EDIT: okay, now I'm confused. The map editor's misc.h should already be included before global.h. How old are your elc and map_editor trees?
