Crashing upon save

Hi allll

so I've been attempting to run DivDX on my Macbook pro. It's a very old outdated thing but its the only PC I have available to me at the moment - so I've been using VirtualBox VM (Windows XP) to run my favourite windows applications. (the Mac build of DivDX does not work on this version of OSX.) Bennu always worked fine on my VirtualBox machine, in fact I developed most of Cybercrisis on it (which is still coming out, I swear! :p game's done but we still need to shoot FMV.)

However, whenever i attempt to save anything in DivDX as a new file, it simply crashes. No reasons as to why, it crashes. I can clone files and modify the contents, but when I try to save a new program, DivDX just says "the indicated file could not be saved" and when trying to save a .WLD file, the whole program just exits!

Any theories behind this? Or possible fixes? Will be a good 2 or 3 months until I have another PC.

Thanks



Dani

You could try to build it yourself. I wouldn't trust any emulated builds (however I have had a lot of success running the windows exe under wine on a mac.

I would not have the foggiest idea about that Mikey!! i cant even get my head around github. I did try to get it working using Winebottler but it doesnt seem to like it, just seems to hang and not open properly. :(

Hello BreadCaster,

It seems that Mac will not allow DIV write privileges for the files, try to set up a shared folder in Virtualbox that allows read/write, then installs DIV in that folder and try to run it in the VM to see if it works.

Thanks for the advice Cictec - sadly I just tried this and it wouldnt work, just crashes. Both the Div EXE and the folder I was trying to save to were in the shared folder, and it still crashes. D:

(and yes, the shared folder has read and write permissions haha)

Ok, then the only way is compiling DIV yourself for Mac.

- Go here: https://github.com/DIVGAMES/DIV-Games-Studio
- Click "clone or download" -> "Download ZIP", to download entire source code
- Uncompress ZIP (even on desktop)
- Open command console, locate to directory of DIV uncompressed
- digit: ./cmake && make .

This should allow you to build in, if you have problems, just copy and paste the output of consoles to see what happens.

I tried a bunch of things, as you can probably see - can you tell ive never used the command line on a Mac before? :p

Ok, try simply:
- cmake && make .

If still not working, you have to install CMake, then, go here: https://cmake.org/download/, download package for Mac OS X, install it, then try again "./cmake && make ." or "cmake && make ." from the console.

If you continue to have problems, copy and paste the output.

Thanks for all your help so far Cictec.

okay, i installed cmake, navigated to the directory and tried again - and I got the same kind of response... code here:
Code:
amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ cmake && make -bash: cmake: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ cmake && make . -bash: cmake: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ ./cmake && make . -bash: ./cmake: No such file or directory amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ - cmake && make . -bash: -: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ cmake && make -bash: cmake: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ /cmake && make -bash: /cmake: No such file or directory amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$ cmake -bash: cmake: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:Div-Games-Studio-master test$


is there something i'm missing possibly? :/

UPDATE: tried something else, got a different message:
Code:

Something is not configured properly, try reinstalling with following guide:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sK4sVg4SRsg

One installed open the terminal (bash), locate to DIV dir, then:
cmake && make .

Or if not work:
cmake .

If finish successfull:
make

This should compile finally DIV for your Mac, if you continue to have problems, copy and paste the output.

Well, you don't have installed developers tools, you need to install also XCode and command line tools (such as GCC, Make, etc...), install it with the following guide:
http://osxdaily.com/2014/02/12/install-command-line-tools-ma...

Then try again to call "cmake && make ." or "cmake ." and "make" if still not working reinstall again cmake, so it can set up all and try again to call commands to build DIV.

sadly my version of OSX is too old to download and run xcode - entering the commands from that page simply gave me this:
Code:
amsyss-MacBook-Pro:~ test$ xcode-select --install Usage: xcode-select -print-path or: xcode-select -switch <xcode_folder_path> or: xcode-select -version Arguments: -print-path Prints the path of the current Xcode folder -switch <xcode_folder_path> Sets the path for the current Xcode folder -version Prints xcode-select version information amsyss-MacBook-Pro:~ test$ xcode -bash: xcode: command not found amsyss-MacBook-Pro:~ test$


And when trying to install xcode from the app store it said "We could not complete your purchase. Xcode couldnt be installed on Macintosh HD because Mac OS X version 10.11.5 or later is required." :(:thumbdown:

I understand, i have to see if you can install the command line tool (GCC/Clang, make, etc...) without installing Xcode and configure cmake, I do not have a mac then we should go for trial, if I find some other useful guides for you I will let you know.

Thanks Cictec, youve been really good persisting in trying to get this sorted and its appriciated :)

Is there any way of running a virtual machine of OSX and compiling it on there remotely, then uploading the build and letting people download it?

Speaking of the desktop, if you have a VM installed in your Mac you can have:
- Windows virtualized, so you can built DIV for windows.
- Linux virtualized, so you can built using a cross compiler, DIV for Linux and Windows, I do not know if can compile for Mac.

So now to compile for Mac, you must do it natively or in a VM with Linux (if you can).

I unfortunately do not have a Mac, otherwise I would have built DIV for you and other users.

Dan, I've been really busy lately so DIV has had to take a back seat

My plan is to have a docker auto build for the osx setup at some point.

In the mean time I can try to help you build for OSX, but sadly it is not trivial.

The first thing you need is to install the brew osx package manager, from there you can install all the libs you need. You'll need xcode installed too (but you dont need the full package)

Will try to give you more info tomorrow

hay Mikey

Okay, fair enough - I dont know if this mac will run those things so i may just see if i can set up my tower pc with windows 7 on in the communal space in my new house, hopefully that means ill be able to get to work on this new 3d project I want to put together :)

BTW - exciting stuff - I managed to stick together a dynamic WLD & process list loader which corresponds to specific sectors (made & tested it using the example WLD id made alredy) - so expect some room over room level design when the alpha of this thing is out :D

So you've managed to get an implementation/emulation rooms above rooms on mode8 through the process? very interesting, congratulations, the original engine used by mode8 contains this feature natively, but for some reason has been eliminated during the development of mode8.

I hope to see an alpha / demo of it as soon as possible.
