Ah, thanks!  That solved my compiling issues... but it still doesn't seem to want to start.  After I run cataclysm.exe (th-that's what I do, right?), it freezes for a moment, and then another terminal screen flashes up and then just immediately closes again.  Cygwin seems to sorta just freeze, after that.  :\

What size is your cygwin terminal?
Just try dragging it out a little bit at the bottom right

[Gunner-Chan]

Yeah, make it just a bit taller and see if it works. It wants a specific size or larger.

[The Darkling Wolf]

80x25 to be specific.

Yet for some reason, every terminal ever seems to default to 80x24.

[Farce]

Super-belated and slight-necro I am sorry ;_;

My cygwin's the default size.  I tried dragging it out and expanding the terminal size, it didn't help - cygwin still opened and instantly closed another terminal window, and then went more or less unresponsive.

Are you running the executable by doubleclicking on it or by typing ./cataclysm ?

I keep getting a 404 when trying to download the windows version here- http://whalesdev.com/forums/index.php?topic=554.0 .  Are there any other links for downloading it on windows?

This is the site where development is currently happening. There is a windows executable on the front page that should work fine.

And this is the current thread for the game:

has anyone worked out how to have NPCs to get in a car?

Yes, I started working on a mod that let you take the npcs with you, they would pile into non-player occupied seats when you enter a vehicle and they are set to follow you. Actually that bit was easy enough, and you get them shooting hostiles for free as you drive past, however I had some issues where they leapt out of the vehicle to pick up something interesting or to move into melee and then explode as you drive over them.

However according to that post I started it back last august, and I certainly don't remember touching it since then so you can assume it's dead for now. Code for it is all in github though.

Any chance of a Mac compatible version?

I posted this on the forums, but strangely, this thread is more active. I'm compiling on a mac, and it used to work just fine. Can anyone tell me what I need to change to get this to compile properly? Gunin, I'll find a way to get a compiled version over to you if it works.

g++    -O3 -m32 -c item.cpp -o obj/item.o
item.cpp: In member function ‘std::string item::info(bool)’:
item.cpp:282: error: ‘struct it_comest’ has no member named ‘health’
make: *** [obj/item.o] Error 1

Go to the Dark Days Ahead thread.
DDA is much better too.

Whales stopped working on vanilla.

Many thanks. A PM would be nice once you've made some progress, as I check my email about 500 times a day.

I've found the best way to read in the dark is by sitting next to a console, like the ones in the evac shelters you start in. Its bright enough to read and never goes out.

Vanilla Cata doesn't have consoles in the evac shelter
