Hello everybody:

I'm a new user, and a new mudder. I'd like to ask you some questions.

I downloaded the source of Smaugfuss 1.9, and the executable for windows, but when I've tryed to compile it, it makes me a lot of problems, and I can't to compile it.

I'm using windows XP and visual c++ 6.0. I know that it would be better if I work under Linux or something like this, but I'm really sorry, I can't. I'm a blind person, and I can't use this, at list.

Could you help me? could you tell me some way to compile smaugfuss 1.9 with visual c++ 6.0? Please, if can be posible, step by step.

sorry for my english, I'm trying to learn it, but I'm not speak it well yet.

It's almost impossible to help unless you specify what the problems are. Error messages? If so, what are those messages?

It continues until I have...

I think that I need something that I don't have now. could someone to send me a version of smaugfuss 1.9 wich I can compile? I know that is a bit dificult, but there are too many errors, I think.

Thanks for all.

Did you try asking on the SmaugFUSS forum?

http://www.smaugmuds.org/

It looks like a problem with Visual C++ and the mud.h file. Until you sort that out you are likely to get many errors.

Why compile in the first place if you have the executable? Why not just run it?

Hello:

thanks Nick, I'll try to ask there.

I'm trying to compile the source because I would like to traduce it to spanish, because I'm from Spain. Then I have installed Cygwin on my pc, but it doesn't work well. when I do the steps in this page to compile using Cygwin, it makes me an error wehn I try to do a "make". It tells me... "Comand not found".

I installed cygwin step by step like you put in "How to install cygwin". My brother did it for me because I can't click with the mouse in a part of the installation. why can I use make? How can I fix it?

thanks for all again.

You need to get the development part of Cygwin, it isn't there by default. Such as "make", "gcc" and so on.

Hello again:

I download cygwin again, and I have "make" utility now. I thought that I could compile smaugfuss without problems, but it isn't happend.

this time when I execute "make", tells me:

$ make
make -s smaug
Compiling o/imc.o....
make[1]: g++: Command not found
make[1]: *** [o/imc.o] Error 127
make: *** [all] Error 2

I'm really confused. What is happening now? Thanks for help me.

OK you have "make", now you need "g++". That is a different program. I mentioned in my earlier post you would need "gcc". That is effectively the same program (as g++).

Hello again:

Nick, I'm sorry but I can't use gcc or g++. I tryed to reinstall cygwin, donwloading all the pacages in "Debel", but when I download them, and the program installs them, including gcc and wathever, I saw that, when i tryed to compile, typing "make", it tells me the same as I write in my last post.

What can I do? Is there any way to install the pacages from cygwin? What are the pacages exactly that I have to download?

Thanks a lot.

Try typing just:
"where make"
and see what you get.

The package you need is called either 'make' or 'gnumake' or something like that. Note that you don't need to redownload all of Cygwin: if you run the setup program pointed to your current directory, it should detect the packages you already have.
