@FlyingDice: it's cool It was my first game... not making that mistake again (maybe, possibly... nah probably gonna happen again eventually)!!!

[Aseaheru]

BTW, how do you find factions? do you just talk to people?

[Greiger]

pick the lock or pry the door.
can guns jam?

also, may i share a story about what just happened to me?

I've had a gun jam once.  I think it's a very very small chance though, and it doesn't seem to cause any real problems outside the gun just not firing that turn.

And sure, feel free.

BTW, how do you find factions? do you just talk to people?

They aren't quite in yet.  I think you can use a two way radio to try to call them for some backup, but I've never seen it work.

[Aseaheru]

i once got a response from them but nothing happened.


STORY.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

So, second time in a long, long time i play with no cheating as my normal thing, a parkouring, packmule, light step non-substance using truth teller, with other assorted traits. i go into town, run away as soon as i see a baddy, and windup at a treatment plant.With a truck. going inside the building i see a utilities module and install the toolkit. then i just drive around in the truck. in 3~ days i killed over 126 creatures, find lots of gear (including tons of bionics in labs i cant get at.) in this time i find only 7~ guns, no ammo and killed only about three things myself. i die looting a town, after surviving a day with a red leg. i had also destroyed several buildings with the truck.

Is there some way to get the game to play in fullscreen? It's so small on my monitor it's really hard to play for long periods of time.

Mephasteras: Follow these instructions in the bottom post and you'll have a nice scalable font to use It gives a good font size to use for very high resolution monitors as well

[Mephansteras]

Thanks!

   Oh Cataclysm lives huh? This is nice and since there is a Windows version that works I might be able to stick with it longer this time. I guess I will end up making yet another LP though, maybe I should finish one of those eventually. I do have one question, is there an easy way to compare the gear you are wearing to stuff on the ground or in your inventory?

[Greiger]

The git version has a compare key (I think it's 'I' but I'm not sure)  That will do a colored side by side comparison of two items. 

It will probably be in the next windows version too unless the coding peoples say otherwise.

   So I thought, cool I guess since I have code::blocks on my computer already and I read earlier in the thread you could compile on windows with that this will be easy. Oh look it wasn't so I guess I don't have my thing setup right or something. I tried some googlefu but the specific error is slightly harder to google then I would like so I figure I would ask here. Can anyone tell me why I am getting the following error?
ld.exe          cannot find -lSDL

[Morrigi]

Yeah, help with compiling windows and/or more frequent .exe updates would be greatly appreciated.

-lSDL is the linker parameter to compile an SDL program. If you have the DevPak installer in CodeBlocks as a plugin, then you can just download the SDL Devpak (Preferably the latest version) and then recompile the program again.

Alternatively, you can take a trip to the official site of SDL (Here) and grab a copy for Mingw from it. This process, however, is slightly more difficult if you are not a programmer. Should you decide to do it this way, then just unzip the SDL you downloaded and copy the "include", "lib", and "bin" directories and paste 'em directly in the Mingw directory (which should be found easily in the CodeBlocks folder.)


Ahem, slightly unrelated but I didn't know Cata was compiled with SDL. If it is indeed so, perhaps I should also compile it...

It's...it's...beautiful.

Now there is no reason not to go back and play it.
