Title: Where can I get the 3.5.5 source?
Post by: Darkhill on February 15, 2004, 03:28:42 pm

I used the CVS to download the source code to the project.  And when I got everything all compilied the game said I had 3.2.  3.2 is very slow and ended up locking up on my computer.  Just wondering where I had to go to get the lastest code for the project.

Only way you seem to be able to download the files with the first link is to goto each one.  Thats going to take a long, long time.  Whats the CVSRoot to be able to use WinCVS with this?

Second link doesn't work.

get wincvs, follow the instructions for anonymous login on SCP the website.

That will get the latest source.

I do have the DirectX 8.1 SDK installed.

The link you gave is the one I went to with WinCVS.  I logged in as annoymous and downloaded all the files.  When I compiled and ran the game it says version 3.2 in the lower left corner.  I downloaded the 3.5.5 executable before and it says version 3.5.5 in the corner.  Am I using the wrong username to get the latest version?

I poked around until I found version.h and 3.2 is hard coded into it.  Is there any other way of getting the newest source code?

are you sure you'r not telling it to take an older revision, and your checking out the project 'fs2_open' and not 'freespace2_public'

Yeah thats what I did.  And in the instructions it says something about using the 'DirectX 8.1' branch of the CVS.  Might be where the problem is?

I just went back to WinCVS to try it again.  I left out that branch tag and tried to get the code again.  Looks like it went through all the directories and didn't update anything.

I don't know what the deal is.  But I deleted my previous downloaded coded and then checked it out again and all seems to be fine.
