SDL2.0 test version, call for beta testers!

Post by Socapex »

Hello everyone,
as some of you might or might not know, manaplus is in the process of moving to SDL2.0. I will continue to build the normal OSX version with SDL1.2 until we are sure that the new libraries work well. To make sure everything runs smooth for non-developer users, I would like to seed out debug versions of the SDL2 ManaPlus client.

If you aren't scared of crashes and know how to report bugs, I would very much appreciate if you could test out this beta. Thank you for all the help in creating ManaPlus for OSX.

Snow Leopard version 09-03-13: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h1xobgi6wto17 ... -03-13.dmg

This works perfectly for me!

I tested
  • Combat
  • Walking (including changing maps)
  • Speech
  • NPCs
  • Casting magic
on
  • 10.6.8 (MacBook)
  • 10.7.5 (VMWare ESXi, connected via "console")
  • 10.8.4 (ESXi)
Thank you to both 4144 and Socapex for giving us Mac users such a great client!

I've been testing it on OS X 10.9 GM release and while the gameplay is excellent, the mobs with dyeable layers aren't dyed (snail, hyvern, squirrel...), so they appear red or whatever the original colour was.

Thx melkior,

I can't upgrade to 10.9 right now and will at least wait till .2/.3, but I will definitely keep an eye out for it when I do update. I hope you can stand the nuisance until we fix it! :)

edit: could you attach a screenshot for the record? That will make things much easier for us. Thx again :)
