An easier way is to just download one of the experimental builds, they're built automatically after a commit, so will stay pretty well up-to-date, apparently.

Where do you get those?  I know a relevant link was posted recently, but I didn't see any actual download links on that page.

[Jehdin]

At the DDA website, on the right.

I reaLLY wish thaT these things where in zip files so those without winrar and/or 7zip could get at them.

It seems they have to update the main page link to the experimentals - right now "stable" is .6 and "experimental" is buggy .7 - I'd like the 'bleeding edge' github but github seems designed to avoid new people getting to use it.

Yeah, it seems the links on the website aren't update yet. Go here to get up-to-date builds, just click whatever version you want and there'll be a link to a .zip.

Edit: The experimental build links on the website were just updated.

So I got git working.  Once I realized there's an actual git client for downloading the source directly, it became a lot easier!

Now, if I made some changes and wanted to push them into the main code, how would I do that?  And would I be allowed?

[Aseaheru]

I thin k you can put it up for a pull request, try making a thread over on the official forums.

[GlyphGryph]

New release out. .7.1 Lindqvist. See site. Too tired to link. KevinGranade worked hard to churn this out so give him (and GalenEvil) a big round of applause for their good work.

* GlyphGryph sleeps.

Assuming you have already forked it and are attempting to change your own version (fork button in the top right of the main CleverRaven repository), you would first create a new branch (any changes made should always be in a new branch, don't ever import changes to your master because then if they are rejected it can cause all sorts of problems), and then make a Pull Request (green button on your repository page). At that point the one of the developers with merge powers (myself, Kevingranade, GalenEvil, and Soron if he ever shows up again, I'm not sure if GlyphGryph can or not) will review your code and either merge it or leave/request comments about why it hasn't been merged.

Github won't compile for me.  It cannot find mapitemsdef.cpp - this was pulled about 20 minutes ago.

What are you using to compile? Codeblocks? Cygwin?

[Girlinhat]

Codeblocks, which is not a recent version I admit.

I've also got Bloodshed/DevC++ which is ALSO a very old version.

[GalenEvil]

@Girlinhat: Yeah, the Cataclysm C::B file needs to get updated. mapitemsdef.cpp no longer exists >.< Here's the easiest route to getting it working:
1) Right click the Cataclysm workspace and select [Remove Files].
2) Click [Wildcard Select] and input: " *.cpp; *.h " without the ""s
3) Confirm until out of the dialogues.
4) Right click the Cataclysm workspace and select [Add files]
5) Change the extension filter to "C/C++ Files"
6) Select all of the files and click Open

Should now compile if you also have the libintl and libiconv libraries linked to the project properly

[BigD145]

When are you people gonna learn to just ignore this guy?

mapitemsdef if not in the CleverRaven git.

Still no ranged bonus. Is that just fazed out?

This didn't seem to actually work...

EDIT: Got it working.  I have no idea what libintl and libiconv are though and saw them mentioned nowhere but this post and the fail message...

[GalenEvil]

Is it still saying that it can't find mapitemsdef or is it now giving a different error?

As of a few minutes ago it was complaining of mapitemsdef, though I managed to convince it not to try and load it, and it instead complains about libraries.

This thread on the DDA forum should work. LINKY!
