 Posted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 6:42 pm Post subject: Installation OpenRA on Gentoo |
|
|
OpenRA was included in portage tree tnx to hasufell. If you want have more fresh ebuilds of openra (aka playtests) you can try to add dr overlay.
To use the dr overlay you need to emerge layman and add that overlay:
| Code: | emerge -va layman
echo "source /var/lib/layman/make.conf" >> /etc/make.conf |
P.S. For Gentoo installations after 2012-09-09 you should use /etc/portage/make.conf instead of /etc/make.conf.
| Code: | | nano -w /etc/layman/layman.cfg |
Add "http://github.com/cerebrum/dr/raw/master/repo.xml" URL to your remote lists of overlays in layman.cfg like in example below:
| Code: | overlays : http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/repositories.xml
http://github.com/cerebrum/dr/raw/master/repo.xml |
Add the dr overlay from the remote list to your locally installed overlays:
You can then regularly update to the latest reviewed revision:
or alternatively for all your layman overlays:
Then you may emerge OpenRA (game will be compiled from sources on your machine) from that overlay:
Or you may also emerge OpenRA-Bin (binary package wich was compiled by OpenRA team) from that overlay:
| Code: | | emerge -av openra-bin |
(This ebuild only tested on amd64 branch, but you probably may test it on another one.)
If you have problems starting OpenRA on some exotic video card you should try to add cg USE-flag and start the game with the alternative Cg renderer (see the icons in the Games section of the Main menu).
| Code: | | nano -w /etc/portage/package.use |
And add the following string in it for example:
| Code: | | games-strategy/openra cg |
If you have any questions you can ask me in IRC. But I recommend read the following manual first:
| Code: | | less /usr/share/doc/openra-20121104/README.gentoo.bz2 |
(Your installed version of the game may differ)
P.S. P.S. The following posts there are outdated except of announcements of the new ebuilds in the end.

New ebuild commited, but you probably need to add to FETCHCOMMAND variable in '/etc/make.conf' parameter '--no-check-certificate':
| Code: | | FETCHCOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp --no-check-certificate -O \"\${DISTDIR}/\${FILE}\" \"\${URI}\"" |
If you are using app-portage/getdelta, then you probably need to change the following command in '/etc/deltup/getdelta.rc':
| Code: | # command to use for downloading
FETCH="/usr/bin/wget -c -t 1 --passive-ftp --no-check-certificate" |
P.S. Since Thu Mar 10, 2011 8:44 pm you DOESN'T need to use '--no-check-certificate' option by adding to FETCHCOMMAND variable in '/etc/make.conf' ALREADY! ALL ebuilds are written with EAPI 2 NOW!

New ebuild (20101107_alpha_rc1) added.
Use '--no-check-certificate' option for now. |

I can't install OpenRA. New (20101121-2) version of OpenRA have the following bug:
| Code: | ...
Installing OpenRA to /var/tmp/portage/games-strategy/openra-20101121_alpha_rc1-r1/image//usr/local/share/openra

cp: cannot stat `shaders': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1 |
It looks like you guys either forgave to exclude the following line from your Makefile:155
| Code: | | @cp -r shaders $(INSTALL_DIR) |
or forgave to add 'shaders' path to new release package. |

It looks like you forgave also to exclude the following line:
| Code: | Makefile:158
@$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) thirdparty/WindowsBase.dll $(INSTALL_DIR) |
After exclusion of that 2 lines, I tried to execute OpenRA and it crashed with the following exception log:
| Code: | xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $ mono OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mods=ra
Loading settings file /home/xor/OpenRA/settings.yaml
Using Gl renderer

But I have GeForce 7600 GS PCI-E card. Maybe I need to try with cg toolkit or try to install something else package instead of media-gfx/nvidia-cg-toolkit? |

| BTW, how to execute OpenRA with alternative old renderer (through nvidia-cg-toolkit)? |

OK, I have just tried to exec the following:
| Code: | xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $ mono --debug OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mods=ra Graphics.Renderer=Cg
Loading settings file /home/xor/OpenRA/settings.yaml
Using Cg renderer

cp -r shaders from previous package to openra folder also doesn't help. |

Looks like someone has fouled up the linux package builds.
There should be `cg` and `glsl` directories containing appropriate shaders, in the main OpenRA directory. The old `shaders` directory is dead. |

| Due to the new packaging system, the Makefile install target has probably bitrotted. I'll fix it for the next release. |

I'm sorry guys, it looks like I also forgot to restart after updating my x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers to 260.19.21. So, the exception log from the post http://www.sleipnirstuff.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=82&p=278457#278457 isn't valid. There is the following exception log with new Gl Renderer now:
| Code: | xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $ mono OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mods=ra
Loading settings file /home/xor/OpenRA/settings.yaml
Using Gl renderer
Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: File not found: glsl/world-shp.vert
File name: 'glsl/world-shp.vert'
at OpenRA.FileFormats.FileSystem.Open (System.String filename) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Renderer.Glsl.Shader..ctor (OpenRA.Renderer.Glsl.GraphicsDevice dev, System.String type) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Renderer.Glsl.GraphicsDevice.CreateShader (System.String name) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Graphics.Renderer..ctor () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Game.Initialize (OpenRA.Arguments args) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Program.Run (System.String[] args) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at OpenRA.Program.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 |
So, I try to extract 'glsl' and 'cg' paths from other packages (debian, 4ex.), and then I'll post the final result to you. |

| Don't be in to much of a rush. We're going to push a new release today that fixes the Makefile and gives saner OpenGL error messages. |

Well, guys, It looks like after extracting 'glsl' and 'cg' folders into openra everything works fine now:
| Code: | xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $ mono OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mods=ra
Loading settings file /home/xor/OpenRA/settings.yaml
Using Gl renderer
Available mods:
cnc: C&C (a0001)
ra: Red Alert (a0001)
Loading mods: ra
|
| Code: | xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $ mono OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mods=ra Graphics.Renderer=Cg
Loading settings file /home/xor/OpenRA/settings.yaml
Using Cg renderer
Available mods:
cnc: C&C (a0001)
ra: Red Alert (a0001)
Loading mods: ra
xor@ddd /usr/local/share/openra $

New ebuild (20101202_alpha_rc1) added.
Use '--no-check-certificate' option for now.
Updates:
• Added USE flags: cg, cnc, ra.
'cg': Enable support of old renderer through NVidia Cg (maybe needed 4 odd videcards);
'ra': Download & Install RA mod packages from internet (automatically);
'cnc': Download & Install C&C mod packages from internet (automatically);
(Better install manually full packs with all music & other from game .iso downloaded from original RA website)
• Tao deps (.dll and .config) installs automatically with inst_tao_deps.sh script
• Added game menu .desktop's & icons
• Added servers list link info |

New ebuild (20101202_alpha_rc1-r1) added.
Use '--no-check-certificate' option for now.
Updates:
• Gl renderer parameters were added explicitly to .desktop icons to fix previously saving Cg parameters exclusively in settings.yaml
• Some info in postinst were rewritten. |

New ebuild (openra-20101220_alpha_rc1-r2) added for test version 1220-3.
Use '--no-check-certificate' option for now.
Updates:
• Excluded video_cards_nvidia USE flag for cg renderer (nvidia-cg-toolkit isn't for nvidia cards only). |
