Title: daily/weekly updates
Post by: nirmoy on October 19, 2002, 03:19:55 pm

Hi!

First of I'd like to say that what your doing is great!

What im asking(suggesting) is a daily or weekly(whatever...) binary update, done by some mystical hash scirpt or whaterever fits your needs. Sure I could do this but my knowlage on the current state of code would be most lacking.

Chears!

well, yes. I meant the compiled .exe, not a update of the source code.

Because Im sitting here jumping up and down, wanting nothing more than to spectate the rebirth of the best game ever.

I ( and presumably others ) want to see how fs2_open matures.  And I dotn care if someone says it dosent run, Il download it and try it out anyway!

Perhaps monthly but I would have thought weekly and daily would be to often.

Could it be automated and require no additional work for anyone?

This has been done for many popular project using CVS, like the Miranda IM and Freenet Project. I know Freenet is compiled using no more than a hash scipt.

Set a computer to get the latest CVS and (try to)compile it every night.

I'll compile a relese build and pack them (debug and relese) together and put it up for you to play with

now that bobboau's code is in, and some things have been cleaned up, it is time for an exe. I had planned on doing them once a month, but, folks started to get busy. I think we're getting caught up now.

Problem with automated builds is they need a working makefile, and ours is currently busted ;)

Lemme work on getting that sorted out as well...
