where did you source the zip? it's not on the itch page, just an exe and apk

silver olive
thick finch
#

and no zip

modern blaze
thick finch
#

the exe can be decompressed, but that's not what the instructions suggest

#

yes i am aware haha

modern blaze
#

We should auto-extract it yeah

thick finch
#

the script should be extracting the exe, and the instructions should follow

deep iron
sage sand
#

also -- instructions don't mention adding the .ogg files. i assume we add those, too?

thick finch
#

you're doing all the hard work! ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron

With huge thanks to JanTrueno๐Ÿ™‚

Dunno how I feel about the concept of this one, but I mean... GTA did it already so it isn't controversial.

Once I figured out how I was supposed to control the vehicle and that Biff looks like the guy from River City Ransom... This is pretty hilarious.

deep iron

What res is that device?

slim breach
#

640x480

deep iron
#

Thanks to all who test it๐Ÿ™‚

#

.. I will fix the exe extraction in a bit

slim breach
#

Right on. It hardly affects the half of us, but it would be best for the novice user.

deep iron
#

I agree. Does make it better๐Ÿ™‚

@deep iron Perhaps once you get this one done and uploaded, maybe see if JanTrueno and the others who are well versed with gmloader (better than I am for sure) to try again with Cally's Caves

Need some tweak'n no doubt

Yep. I remember that.

Good job

Thanks man! I am just now slowing down a bit enough to properly learn how to do this stuff and JanTrueno has been super helpful! As well as the rest of you guys! โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘พ

Changelog:
Added this to auto-extract with 7zzs, unzip doesnt work.

if [ -f "./gamedata/Drink-N-Drive.exe" ]; then
    # Extract its contents in place using 7zzs
    ./libs/7zzs x "./gamedata/Drink-N-Drive.exe" -o"./gamedata/"
fi

And ofcourse included 7zzs in the libs folder.

works good (including extraction) on 353VS / OGA Arkos and Ace / Rocknix

Werent you like 14๐Ÿคจ

sterile lodge
#

germans start to drink early I guess ๐Ÿ˜›

#

maybe thats why they dont have that speed limit on highways or something ๐Ÿ˜›

somber lintel
#

True, the first part at least. All my teenage friends were bragging about drinking when we were barely teenagers.
But there's no legal way to drive a car under 16yo.

#

Starting at 14 with beer or so

sterile lodge
#

14? Huh, we use it instead of breast milk

#

rich in vitamin B etc, good for you! ๐Ÿ˜›

modern blaze
#

But you gotta be 24 to ride a proper motorcycledoggokek

stable star
somber lintel
#

Wasn't that 16 for beer and stuff?

#

Really bad idea anyway, but I'm not your mom, so ~

modern blaze
#

Pretty sure its 14 if your parents are with you

#

Uhm what is wrong with the screenshot?

#

It's squashed and doesn't show the gameplay

#

On the itch side are screenshots mainly of driving

#

You can take screenshots on your device so that they're in the correct resolution

deep iron
#

Sorry about that. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

stiff dagger
deep iron
#

I'll replace it. Look ok otherwise?

stiff dagger
deep iron
#

I used it

stiff dagger
#

It says in one field zipname

#

That needs to be the same as foldername

#

.zip

#

The script name field you need to name after the .sh

#

Including the .sh part

#

And architecture is armhf not aarch64 ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron
#

K. So basically there's nothing I didn't F up.

stiff dagger
#

The instructions field is not for the control instructions but for how to install the game / what files to download and put where etc

deep iron
#

Ok

stiff dagger
#

And delete the log file

#

Should be it then ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron
#

Thanks. I'll get to it in morning.

deep iron

@stiff dagger

#

๐Ÿ‘พโ™ฅ๏ธ

#

Nervous

#

๐Ÿ˜…

stiff dagger
#

-json name is wrong, needs to be port.json

  • log.txt needs to be deleted
  • screenshot needs replacement ๐Ÿ™‚
#

readme wrong name ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron
#

What should screen shot be?

See the problem? ๐Ÿ˜›

deep iron
#

I do. That was accidental.. Thought I had copied a different one in. Must have pasted same one๐Ÿ˜…

stiff dagger
#

It's just minor things you're almost ready ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron
#

๐Ÿ‘พ

#

Ty๐Ÿ™‚

#

Will fix

#

@stiff dagger
I used different images. Any better? I know cover is ever slightly smooshed but as it's optional.. I figure, if need be I'll change it

stiff dagger
#

Is the screenshot 640x480?

deep iron
#

Oops.

stiff dagger
#

If not we can take screenshots on the devices is ffmpeg

deep iron
#

Sorry bout that

stiff dagger
#

Finally in the empty gamedata folder you need to add a text file called .gitkeep else it will get deleted by github

deep iron
#

Thank you. Thought it was looking a bit naked in there๐Ÿ˜‚

#

So screenshot and gitkeep then good?

stiff dagger
deep iron
#

Look better? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Feedback:

  • Structure is not correct for PR
  • Cover and screenshot are pretty low quality and stretched out
  • ,gitkeep.txt needs to be .gitkeep
  • In your port.json script name "Drink'n'Drive" needs to be ''Drink'n'Drive.sh''
  • I dont think you used the markdown generator for the readme? https://portmaster.games/port-markdown.html
#

@deep iron

#

The reference images are terrible but i managed to expand stuff and make it look decent ish

deep iron
#

I'll finish n repack once I get my son to school in few๐Ÿ™‚ thanks guysโ™ฅ๏ธ

plucky otter
#

logo and cop from the game assets, no idea where it's used normally

#

there's also a car in perspective that could be used instead of the cop

#

๐Ÿค”

stiff dagger
#

looks perfect

plucky otter
#

(this game is hard)

modern blaze
#

Looking good ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron
modern blaze
#

All the files look good to me now

#

Structure needs to be different for PR, thats all

deep iron
#

Will hop to n few๐Ÿ˜„

modern blaze
#

I sent you that example zip remember, just look at where to place the files and you should be fine ๐Ÿ™‚

deep iron

.. Cleaning.. ๐Ÿ˜…

@deep iron we're almost there!
Just two minor things

README.md credits for the original author are missing.
https://portmaster.games/packaging.html#readme-md

Please always add a dedicated thank you note for the developer/creator. Without these people we would not be here.

Gameinfo.xml has a space too much.

Thank ya๐Ÿ™‚ I'll get to it soon as I'm able๐Ÿ˜Ž

Same issue with the <image> tag too

modern blaze
#

You mean: ./Drink'n'Drive.sh @stiff dagger ?

#

oh in path also

#

didn't even see that

grave ravine
#

lol

modern blaze
#

yeah thats what i meant๐Ÿ˜…

stiff dagger
#

oh then the other way

#

didn't see the image

grave ravine
#

lol

deep iron
#

Should be good now๐Ÿ˜

grave ravine
#

whoops

deep iron
#

Uh oh

modern blaze
#

Looks like the gitkeep failed for whatever reason :p

grave ravine
#

its not on the repo?

modern blaze
#

While uploading

deep iron
#

So what did I goof up now? Knew it was too good to be true๐Ÿ˜

deep iron
#

Did I mess up?

grave ravine
#

its a simple fix, just do:

mkdir -p ports/drinkndrive/drinkndrive/gamedata/
touch ports/drinkndrive/drinkndrive/gamedata/.gitkeep
git add .
git commit -m 'Drink n Drive: added missing `gamedata/` directory.'
git push
#

tada, then do a quick pr, i'll smash it through ๐Ÿ˜„

deep iron
#

Sorry. Just waking up. I'm confused on what I need to do

grave ravine
#

its missing the gamedata directory from the port

#

you need a file in it or git will ignore it

#

so you create a file named .gitkeep in it

deep iron
#

Thought I had a .Gitkeep

#

Odd

Sorry.

grave ravine
#

No need to be sorry ๐Ÿ™‚

modern blaze
#

This stuff happens when using github browser

#

I just put a textfile in there called place-gamefiles-here.txt

#

And that works :p

deep iron
#

I tried but was told to change it

grave ravine
#

.gitkeep is the standard

๐Ÿ˜„

I'll do this in just a bit. Gotta get kids to school๐Ÿ™‚
