Description Daniele C. 2008-02-09 08:28:30 UTC
Sorry for not supplying an ebuild file, but I am not yet that good (to write good ebuilds).

This request is about an ebuild to run and compile this game (dated 1996):
M.A.X. Reloaded
http://www.maxthegame.de/wiki/index.php5?title=M.A.X._Reloaded
http://www.maxthegame.de/wiki/index.php5?title=Downloads

Source code package (currently v0.1.5):
http://www.maxthegame.de/downloads/maxr-0.1.5.tar.gz

The game is open source, although uses the original game data files; the project is pretty nice except that it is only in German (I have actually asked to translate it)
Comment 1 Daniele C. 2008-02-09 08:45:00 UTC
Requires SDL, media-libs/svgalib and libstdc++.so.6 (version GLIBCXX_3.4.9), which I have not yet found myself...(don't know which are the other dependencies)

try for ebuild

This ebuild is not working!
Compiles fine but installation violates sandbox, because hardcoded install path.
Will fix later if nobody don't do so, currently dunno when i'll have time.

Game won't run and exit without any trace so if sombody will test and find out why i will continue doing this ebuild.
It is really badly writen app so upstream should fix all these warning you can see

version bump, updated website, + ~amd64, ~ppc

I've made few changes in Tomáš' ebuild (new 0.2.5 version, two new arches, web adress fixed)
Comment 5 Valeriy Malov 2009-06-20 21:17:42 UTC
And, yes, the game now have free replacements for game data (graphics/maps) and should be playable for everyone

Could you please change the project name to "MAXR"? It's from "Mechanized Assault and eXploration Reloaded". Not M.A.X. Reloaded. This starts to spread all over the net. It's also dual licenced now. GPL + GFDL. Please read the ABOUT and other stuff from time to time.

maxr-0.2.6.ebuild is in portage.
