Call for contribution : we need you ! (Page 3 of 3)

I tested the latest version of Maratis on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard on a IMac Aluminum 7,1 has a ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT chipset.

Yes it ran and worked just fine. I didn't test running any scripts just played with the editor(Models, Lights, ...). This machine is new to me and only has 1GB of RAM, I need to upgrade to 6GB RAM and do a triple boot Mac, Linux, Windows. Hoping it will be able to function as a build bot for all platforms.

Thank you zester and Vegas !

Vegas :

It's normal, in reality all objects fall at the same speed, they are just slowed down by air friction depending on their shape, not their mass. That's why in the moon (no air) an iron ball and a feather hit the ground at the same time.

ant0n you can try using building it by following the instruction and getting the latest release

https://github.com/anael-seghezzi/Maratis-4

I did for Linux x64 because the other links do not work.

I also tried to set the "TARGET_ARCH" of SCons to "amd64” and I receive the same error that says " 'CL' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file". That error doesn't happen if I set the "TARGET_ARCH" back to "i386". I wonder if more complex changes must be done to the SCons files before it can compile a 64-bit version of Maratis. I searched for that error on google and many people said the location of the "cl.exe" file must be added to the system PATH environment variable in the SCons files, but I don't know how to do that. The official documentation for SCons is very confusing.

After that, I noticed that a project file for Visual Studio 2010 is included in the source files of Maratis, so I decided to try it, even though a text file says it might not be up to date.

Visual Studio 2010 doesn't include a 64-bit compiler in the Express version, but a free SDK enables 64-bit compilation, so I installed it. Then I opened the project file for Visual Studio 2010, and I fixed many of the compilation errors, but the last few are bothering me.

In Vusual Studio 2010, the part called "MCore" compiles successfully, but when compiling the part called "MEngine", it says a file called "MLog" is missing.

In the Solution Explorer, I see a file called "MLog" and a file called "MLog.h". With a normal file manager, I checked all directories for a file called "MLog" without a file extension, but it doesn't exist. Since this seems like a user error, I deleted "MLog" from the Solution Explorer and added "MLog.cpp" in the same place (and with the same properties) that the "MLog" item had.

Then, I tried compiling MEngine again, and I see this error:

MLog.cpp
..\..\MSDK\MEngine\Sources\MLog.cpp : fatal error C1033: cannot open program database 'c:\maratisvs2010\trunk\dev\projects\visualstudio2010\release\vc100.pdb'

(I wasn't lazy. Visual Studio displays the file location with all lowercase letters.)

Microsoft's documentation says that error C1033 might be a file disk error, possibly related to multi-byte characters in the directory path:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar … .100).aspx
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/er … rror-c1033

The "Maratis" and "MaratisPlayer" parts of the project almost compile correctly. Only two errors appear for each of them, and they are the same for both: It complains of one missing file called "Bullet-C-API.cpp" that actually doesn't exist in Anaël's source files, and it shows this error about a file named MWin32Window.cpp:

..\..\MSDK\MGui\Sources\WIN32\MWin32Window.cpp(961): warning C4090: '=' : different '__unaligned' qualifiers

Do any of you have advice for fixing these few errors?

Is my assumption about the "MLog" file correct, or is a file called "MLog" without a file extension actually supposed to be in the source files?
