There seems to be a little big error in this ebuild. This version installs directly 1.41 which is not correct. At least not for me, as wolfmp behaves in a way that the game goes MAD. The navigation menu becomes unavigable, as there is an error in file ui.mp.i386.so From the webpage: Return To Castle Wolfenstein 1.41 patch - Win32 or Linux - Note: 1.33 or 1.4 required to install this patch Check this one out. For me, installing directly 1.41 does NOT work properly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge rtcw Expected Results: ebuild should emerge rtcw '1.33 full' first and apply patch 1.41 after that one.
Files previous to 1.41 cannot be run, they always return bad checksum, when in fact the checksum is correct, due to the fact that it uses obsolete tail options. Anyway, does anyone know why the ui.mp.i386.so file is not correct? It always returns the following when starting the game: ^1ERROR: ui_mp/createserver.menu, line 488: unknown menu item keyword noToggle ^1ERROR: ui_mp/error.menu, line 14: unknown menu keyword modal ^1ERROR: ui_mp/serverinfo.menu, line 17: unknown menu keyword modal ^1ERROR: ui_mp/auto_update.menu, line 14: unknown menu keyword modal ^1ERROR: ui_mp/urls.menu, line 15: unknown menu keyword modal ^1ERROR: ui_mp/createserver.menu, line 488: unknown menu item keyword noToggle
The versions 1.41-3 that we use is a full upgrade from retail, not just the patch from 1.33 or 1.4. The information that you are getting from the web site is out of date. If you look into cvsweb, you can see that in previous versions of the ebuild I downloaded the 1.4 patch and the 1.41 patch and applied them both. The 1.41-3 revision was created by TTimo and is a full install, which also fixes the tail problems.
I still get problems in the multiplayer version of the game... any ideas on what to do with ui.mp.i386.so?
I would start with a complete emerge -C rtcw && rm -rf /opt/rtcw and also be sure to delete your ~/.wolf folder. Then reinstall... If you still have a problem at that point, I would file a bug on that problem (don't reopen this one) and I'll see what else I can try to do to help you.
The problem seems to happen when I copy the .pk3 files from the windows installation. The menus of the multiplayer get one on the other and things become unclickable... :( unmerging, emerging and wiping does not solve the problem.
You aren't accidentally overwriting any of the .pk3 files, right? You only need to copy certain ones over.
The problem seems to be when copying the GOTY map pack... :(
Why are you copying those? I thought they were included in the 1.41 patch already?! At least I'm pretty sure that they are.
They are not. The one that comes with Gentoo is about 8MB, GOTY map pack is about 50MB. Anyway... I think I'll leave it as is... no game.
Actually... you're right. I had thought it included the GOTY maps.
I have added a new revision of the ebuild to portage which downloads both the full 1.4 and also the patch, just like it used to. I apologize for that. You were right. I was remembering how it used to work.
Awaiting CVS to check it out. :)
Awaiting CVS update to check it out. :)
There is an additional error in the ebuild. It says that you have to run 'wolfmp' to play multiplayer, but the current binary is 'wolf'.
