AssaultCube on FreeBSD
BostonBSD opened this issue · comments
Assaultcube 1.3 compiles and runs perfectly on FreeBSD 13.0,
however, I keep getting the error message "Master Server Not Replying"
when trying to connect to a multiplayer game.
So I downloaded the Linux prepackaged binaries and tried running that over the
linux compat layer [FreeBSD has a linux kernel module]. This runs perfectly
and I can connect to the master server fine.
Assaultcube 1.2 also ran perfectly on FreeBSD using multiplayer games.
FreeBSD isn't a supported system, but I thought you should know.
[I considered that v1.3 might be sharing config files with v1.2, causing the error msg,
they're both installed at the same time. However, the Linux binaries would be doing the
same thing, which makes me believe that the error msg isn't related to the config files.]
remove the comment from line
//#define PRODUCTION
in cube.h, so it reads
#define PRODUCTION
and compile again. We had some packaging issues with 1.3.0.1 - this fell through the cracks, please forgive me.
That was it, line 68 in cube.h. I removed the comment. Recompiled, no issues whatsoever.
It connects to the master server fine.
