Well, I figure out a way around, I manually downloaded the files. But, now I am running into a openAL error make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/OpenAL.dir/al/buffer.cpp.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/OpenAL.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 ERROR: Failed to build OpenAL Soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyperion Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I can't suggest any help. You have to look further up in the output for what went wrong. For the download issue curl should have given you the answer and for openal the compiler. "Problems with spidermonkey" doesn't allow anyone to help. Always go back in the logs and look for the first issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asher Posted September 8 Author Share Posted September 8 I had a problem with gmp also, the script would download it, then the script would quit. I tried extracting it myself, and there was an error. Then I go to the link and download it manually, and copy over the files, and it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes their mirror fall though... I sometimes have to update the urls in my local copy until they fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asher Posted September 8 Author Share Posted September 8 Is there something I am doing wrong, I keep running into things not building. It does work on macos 26.6.2, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on 25.1 but it should yes.

For mods you can just use R28 unless you want to make a mod for the dev version. For the PRs you have to be on latest, but the patches are built on the CI (Gitea) too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan` Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 That's expected, you need to download the prebuilt shaders for vulkan or build them yourself. There should be a script for it https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/src/branch/main/source/tools/spirv/get-nightly-shaders.sh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asher Posted 40 minutes ago Author Share Posted 40 minutes ago Just opened 0ad, and got this. I got it even without mods. 0ad would start -> I would go to matches -> new game -> then start, and it would start, and then it would quit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
