I recently downloaded freespace from the development thingy (I think it's cvs, but I can't remember right now) and compiled it on my laptop, however the moment that run the exectuable it gives this error:
ERROR: "Could not load in ChoosePilot-m!" at ui/window.cpp:237
I did some looking around on the forum and found something suggesting that ChoosePilot-m is an image which should be in a folder called "interface" (which I can't find)
I then tried using the latest release (downloaded source from source forge) and compiled that, did the same thing and got a different error:
ERROR: " Web cursor bitmap not found. This is most likely due to one of three reasons: 1) You're running FreeSpace Open from somewhere other than your FreeSpace 2 folder; 2) You've somehow corrupted your FreeSpace 2 installation; 3) You haven" at graphics/2d.cpp:1526
I get the feeling that it's error 1 because I used --prefix when I did ./configure and nothing got written to the directory so I ignored it and ran the exectuable from the /code directory, but I can't find anywhere else to put it.
Can anybody help me here?
I use debian linux.
