Oh brother, got the zip from the link I show you, the quick guild for building crystal core, then I went to the sourceforge download, to download the config file and all that.

Then I move the crystalcore folder to the CS home directory (never mention that) I export CEL and CRYSTAL including the path, went to the crystalcore directory, compile it and then try to run jam

Moving the crystalcore folder is not needed and better is to not do that.

I asked for exact instructions. That means I want to see all commands EXACTLY like you typed them and ALL output you got.

Greetings,

I almost did, anyways I download the configure files and all, ran configure, seem to be fine, but when I ran Jam I get this

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 /c/cs/cs/crystalcore
$ Jam
../src/Jamfile: No such file or directory
...found 10 target(s)...

What now ?

Can you describe exactly to me what you did? i.e. how did you get the Crystal Core source? What steps did you do after that?

Greetings,

You mean the CVS on the sourceforge network ? Great, now you tell me   I'll download the files, but they have to be download 1 by 1 you know.

Why is that? Just use a CVS client like wincvs or anything. You don't have to download them one-by-one. I hope you didn't download Crystal Space or CEL one-by-one?

Greetings,

You ain't making any sense, the instructions here http://www.crystalspace3d.com/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Crystal+Core+Running
gives the link to download the needed files, but no where does it mention anything about a configure file or files that will compile the program. Unless I'm missing something, without the configure file for crystalcore, I'm screwed.

If you download Crystal Core from CVS then the file 'configure' is included with that. So you have that file unless something was wrong when doing the cvs checkout. It seems you only downloaded the data files for Crystal Core but you forgot to check out the source. See this entry on the url you mention:

Finally you must get Crystal Core itself. Crystal Core is located in the same repository as Crystal Space. Just check out the 'crystalcore' module.

Greetings,

OK. I got it to compile, but now it crashes, tried both new and old renderers...

Can you give more information. What exactly are you running? I mean which application? What messages do you see on screen? Please describe the problem a bit more exactly.

Greetings,

yeah I know. but I figured there are alot of blender people here and was hoping someone would have an idea.

Perhaps you may find better answers at http://www.gameblender.org. They also have forums there.

Greetings,

Oh... And I was downloading libs all day
Thanks Didn't read the manual, my fault. I'm very sorry...

P.S. Didn't help anyway... :/ What lib do I need to add for those externals?

Hmm... What package did you download and install? Did you tell it where to find Crystal Space. There is nothing you need to add if the cs winlibs package is correctly installed.

Greetings,

I get this when I try to compile plgvfs (CS98_004) with MSVC7:

plgvfs error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _crc32 referenced in function "public: bool __thiscall csArchive::ArchiveEntry::WriteFile(struct _iobuf *)" (?WriteFile@ArchiveEntry@csArchive@@QAE_NPAU_iobuf@@@Z)

Any ideas?

Did you download and install the cs_winlibs package as instructed in the manual?

Greetings,

I'm really sorry about the above posts. I was using a different computer. It kept on logging out of my forum account whenever I tried to post a reply. Anyway how can I convert blend files to cyberspace 3D maps? Crystal blend doesn't seem to have released any projects.

You use blend2cs or blender2crystal. See http://www.crystalspace3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Creating+art+for+Crystal+Space.

Don't confuse the CrystalBlend project with this! CrystalBlend will NOT convert maps to Crystal Space. That's what blend2cs and blender2crystal do.

Greetings,

I can't run Crystal Core because I never found the configure file for it, show me the link to download, probaly jam too.

configure is included with Crystal Core. 'jam' you should already have since you build Crystal Space and CEL.

Greetings,

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ echo $CEL    


Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ export CRYSTAL=/c/CS/CS

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ export CEL=/c/CS/CS/CEL

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ echo $CEL
/c/CS/CS/CEL

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ export CRYSTAL=/c/CS/CS

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ echo $CRYSTAL
/c/CS/CS

celtst works Now how I get Crystal Core to work ? Note it's in /c/cc directory.

Crystal Core should now work. What happens if you try to run it?

Greetings,

Possibly switching to CVS version of CS might help you. Lots of things have been fixed in Crystal Space and possibly this as well.

Greetings,

It gave me this

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ echo %CEL%
%CEL%

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$ echo %CRYSTAL%
%CRYSTAL%

Tony@TONY-763C465C03 ~
$

Type 'echo $CRYSTAL' and 'echo $CEL' instead. If they are not set then use the following commands to set them:

export CRYSTAL=/c/path_to_crystapspace
export CEL=/c/path_to_cel

Note that you MUST use forward slashes (not like windows does) and instead of c:\ you write/c/

Greetings,

In that case your environment variables could be tested with `echo %CRYSTAL%` and `echo %CEL%`

No that's wrong. Mingw/msys uses linux syntax for env vars. You must test $CRYSTAL and $CEL.

Greetings,

Got some hints from Pablo...

Cant be lightmaps and stencil shadow combined? Imagine a lightmapped room and a flashlight or similar....

Regards,
Carsten

Currently not. That is something that is still being worked on.
