Minetest (w/ Mineclone 2)

[mild hare]

Haha

Yeah so it does not work, it sounded like it works. Out of box that is

@languid belfry

Is this something one of you can look into?

[chrome gull]

Yea, there are missing libs also and broken startup script

The only one unresolved issue with I have is invisible cursor

In gui

[mild hare]

I think that's universal

[chrome gull]

Yea

[mild hare]

Don't think that works on any cfw

[chrome gull]

Maybe sdl_sim_cursor will helps,

[tardy moon]

On rocknix its even worse where it jumps the cursor to the side every 2 seconds😄

[mild hare]

Feel free to list your changes so we can fix it upstream

[chrome gull]

https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-New/pull/485

[mild hare]

Thanks!
I'm afraid we still have to work some things out before we can merge that 😛

Because if we merge it like that it will break the port on all other 25 devices ^^
Adding libs is very delicate and if you add one wrong lib or one too many libs it'll pull another 25 libs in.
I saw that you added libSDL1.2 aswell but the port is a SDL2 binary.

The zcat chat we need to test on the other cfws as well.
Does muos not have tar?

I wonder why we have to setup ifconfig lo up and why the os doess not do this by default

[tardy moon]

Figuring out the libs for this was a nightmare to begin with😄

[mild hare]

I'll test it on my rg35xxh now next 🙂

[tardy moon]

I can probably retest it now with muos to see if theres a package that works for all

[mild hare]

but

when i do

root@Cebion-Boss:~#```

not so much anymore

and the bad wolf in here is libcurl.so.4

let me also test then we can see what we truly need and maybe only need to add 1-2 libs

[chrome gull]

muos has tar but there is no -z option compiled in

[mild hare]

@languid belfry explain yourself 😄

[languid belfry]

Nuh

[mild hare]

😄

[languid belfry]

It's because we use busybox.

[mild hare]

https://tenor.com/view/well-that-makes-a-little-more-sense-then-dan-levy-david-david-rose-schitts-creek-gif-20790659

[languid belfry]

Find alternatives

[mild hare]

thanks

[tardy moon]

[mild hare]

Then we'll test if the other options work on the other cfws else we'll ship 7z or something with it

[chrome gull]

it is .gz file if zcat in not available there is another option to use gzip -d -c data.tar.gz | tar -xf -

[mild hare]

my game is doing something really weird

./Minetest.sh: line 23: ////ports/minetest/log.txt: No such file or directory
./Minetest.sh: line 25: cd: ////ports/minetest: No such file or directory
chmod: ./bin/minetest: No such file or directory
./Minetest.sh: line 62: ./bin/minetest: No such file or directory

[mild hare]

so yeah to make minetest run on muos all you need to do is rename libcurl.so.4 to libcurl.so.4_old

😄

all the libs you added were because of this single lib

same btw with amberelec

[chrome gull]

oh, great

[mild hare]

so we'll just fix it dirty by doing if muos or amberelec delete that file

[teal mason]

Seems kinda janky

https://tenor.com/view/nodding-yes-approve-approval-i-approve-gif-5111426790472579865

[mild hare]

😄

[mild hare]

alright then add something like [ "$CFW_NAME" = "AmberELEC" -o "$CFW_NAME" = "muOS" ] && rm -f "$GAMEDIR/libs.$DEVICE_ARCH/libcurl.so.4" to the PR and delete the libs and we should be good. Will only need to test the zcat on arkos then we'll merge it 🙂

[normal estuary]

didnt work

[mild hare]

Why not? Did work for me 😛

Log?

From a clean install?

[normal estuary]

I got it working.

I just replaced the file from the changes git that priol did onto the game and it works

oh nvm literaly none of the controls work

@mild hare ironically when I looked at the log it said the change in the name was the problem

[mild hare]

depends how you renamed it lol

[normal estuary]

ill do it again

the lib just vanished

[mild hare]

With my line?

[normal estuary]

I think it turns into a file called "libhcrypto.so.4"

[mild hare]

That's not how this works 😛

[teal mason]

Could be a ghost.

[normal estuary]

yea its not that, I dont know what happened so I redownloaded the lib file and renamed it again, and the log says: no version information available

[mild hare]

Full log 😛 And make sure none of the other libs are intere. Just stock libs no any other new libs

[normal estuary]

wdym new libs

also log: ./bin/minetest: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by ./bin/minetest)

[mild hare]

Okay we may be talking about different things 😄

[mild hare]

Let's start from start.

Device? cfw? Did you modyify any files or strart scripts after installing it from PM?

[normal estuary]

Device: RG35XXSP, CFW: muOS, I added the patch that priolistman did and I installed it from PM

[mild hare]

yeah undo that patch

and just delete the libcurl.so.4

that's it

these changes we need https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-New/pull/485/files

[normal estuary]

that was the patch I did

so I deleted libcurl.so.4 and I added the changes you recommended, and the exact same log apears

[mild hare]

i think it comes up for me too but game starts

show me your sh?

[mild hare]

looks good

you on refried beans?

[normal estuary]

yes

[mild hare]

I'll test it later again 🙂

[normal estuary]

before you go, what time is it for you?

[mild hare]

11 am

😄

[normal estuary]

its 4:30 am for me!

Anyways, im off to bed, cya

[normal estuary]

@mild hare any success?

[normal estuary]

I also did a lot tinkering and the only discovery I found was that if you uninstall via portmaster, reinstall again, add the changes to the .sh file and leave the libcurl.so.4 completely untoutched, you get this weird log file

at the very bottom of the log you can see the message we are all fimiliar with

[mild hare]

Aw crap, I forgot

[normal estuary]

it ok!

[normal estuary]

@mild hare But please let me know when we could try again

[mild hare]

Remind me this evening 😛

[normal estuary]

alr!

[normal estuary]

@mild hare Is now a good time?

[mild hare]

For what?

Oh yeah lol

I'll test it in an hour

[normal estuary]

👍

[normal estuary]

@mild hare how about now?

[tardy moon]

[mild hare]

before that is the whole extraction thing

[normal estuary]

its taking a bit for filezilla to delete the folder

[mild hare]

via ssh its instant rm -rf minetest/

[normal estuary]

I could not figure out how to get that working

[mild hare]

for next time 🙂
https://portmaster.games/faq.html#how-can-i-run-my-port-via-ssh-to-troubleshoot-any-starting-issue

[normal estuary]

it says: /mnt/mmc/roms/Ports/Minetest.sh: line 66: systemctl: command not found

[mild hare]

Yeah no significance

just informational

66 is just for killing

[mild hare]

Check against all the steps i did and compare to what you're doing every detail matters

even the editor matters for the .sh

if you're editing it with notepad for example on windows you will insert windows line endinfs for example and break the script

[normal estuary]

oh I am using notepad

should I use notepad++?

[chrome gull]

vi is the best one

[normal estuary]

I tried editing the .sh file with notepad++ and did the exact commands and it still doesnt work

@mild hare here is the .sh file if you need to reveiw it:

[mild hare]

Then maybe not newest muos? Not newest portmaster

Because the device I freshly flashed couple of days ago

Maybe something went wrong with unpacking the game

Post the log

You always just copied lines out of it

[normal estuary]

also I havent mentioned it yet but when I boot it up and the game freezes, I can press select to go back to the main menu. Is this info of any significance

@mild hare I updated portmaster and still no luck

[mild hare]

What exactly do you mean when you say It freezes

Do you see the mine test logo?

[normal estuary]

yea

[mild hare]

Well then it boots

You never said that

[normal estuary]

ill end vid

sorry

@mild hare no inputs beside select work

and im pretty sure its frozen because there is no scrolling in the background

[mild hare]

So that is a huge difference between it runs and does not run

Because I was troubleshooting getting it to start at all

So hitting select is escape kex

Do that quits it

[mild hare]

Nope not frozen

What you are experiencing is not having analogue sticks to control the menu

Which is done via mouse

[normal estuary]

oh

[mild hare]

Not sure if there is a way to control it via keys

[chrome gull]

Control works, but mouse cursor is invisible

But you can see when cursor hover on the buttons

[normal estuary]

@mild hare so this aint gonna work?

[mild hare]

Not until you can switch dpad with analogue or you connect a mouse

[normal estuary]

dammit, well thanks for you help

[mild hare]

@chrome gull merged

[languid ivy]

do I put the code before or after whats all ready there

sorry for my stupidity, im new to this in general

[mild hare]

Fix is already online

[languid ivy]

ok

[languid ivy]

so as of right now there is no way to get mouse to be visible?

[mild hare]

Idk, it's open source. Feel free to hack at it

[chrome gull]

As I understand there is no implementation of cursor in sdl Mali-fbdev driver https://github.com/mihailescu2m/libsdl2-2.0.2-dfsg1/blob/mali/src/video/mali-fbdev/SDL_malivideo.c

[mild hare]

@languid belfry who was that guy who did a early port for muos and did a mouse sdl patch? I think corsixth or something

[hard swan]

can anyone help #🩺｜port-help message

[glass skiff]

Me on H also same like that. Only press select to quit.
How to fix it?

Every port has a log.txt generated in ports/{portfolder}, please drag and drop it to discord for help.

[quiet jay]

after delate libcurl.so.4 games run but crash

@mild hare

[mild hare]

because you deleted libcurl?

😄

log after crash

[quiet jay]

h with libcurl game not starting at all

[mild hare]

What os are you using?

[quiet jay]

log with libcurl first launch

1.2.1

@mild hare The game Apotris doesn’t work on TSP either. It starts up to the menu, but when trying to start any mode, it crashes. I’m not sure why; it says it supports Trumui. I have a lot of ports and I’m probably doing everything right.

[mild hare]

Mind that trimui is not an offically supported OS

the ports are only in theory compatible

but tina linux has problems from time to time with ports

Don't generalize ports and always look at each port individually

The list on the website just shows what games are within the requirements of the handheld

not that they are tested

we test all supported cfws but not tsp or knulli

[mild hare]

in apotris thread is a new binary in testing you can test that one

for minetest it probably needs a bit of rework for tsp

[quiet jay]

Okay, I understand, thanks for the explanation. It’s probably better to check first if anyone has actually managed to run it. Thanks for the help

[mild hare]

If you have hte patience you can also try to fix problems if you find them

[glass skiff]

How to add cursor?

[mild hare]

Million dollar question 😛

[deft quiver]

Minetest renaming to Luanti officially is wild to see

[ruby vector]

Do we have anyway to update the port to the latest version, cause there has been new version on Feb

[astral dune]

How can I navigate through the menu? (rgcubexx)

Oh, I already read it up there

[molten monolith]

same error

[dusky remnant]

Here is a little thing I've worked up to put a soft cursor in luanti. The patch is against Debian trixie's luanti 5.10 source. If it needs fixing up against ~whatever version~ of luanti you're using, I'll do it (I would search for that, but Discord sucks so hard).

[dusky remnant]

https://github.com/rotopenguin/Luanti-port/releases/download/0.2/Luanti.5.10b.port.tgz here's my build of it, fwiw. Only tried it on knulli/34xxsp. I have minetest2 in there, mineclonia is angy for some reason. (Edit: new build, now the cursor shouldn't disappear when returning to main menu, etc.)

[past iris]

I'm always surprised people still would rather use Knulli on the RG34XX-SP when MuOS is available now. The buttons swapping on Knulli is the most annoying shit ever with these CFWs

[dusky remnant]

I'm used to batocera.

[dusky remnant]

https://github.com/rotopenguin/Luanti-port/releases/download/0.4/Luanti.5.14.port.tgz here's a build of 5.14. Since I have pretty much everything switched off in the cmake, it was easy peasy. As a bonus, mineclonia's error message is now much more useful - it hates luajit's prng.
