Turn Watcher - Comments

Still wanting network code.

3 years later and I'm still hoping to come to this site some day and see that you guys have added network code. ;)

The second monitor player HUD is nice, but there needs to be a way to broadcast that info across networks for people gaming with VTTs, IRC/chat games, or even in person with a few laptops around a table.

You might even be able to make a little extra money with this by charging a few bucks for the "client" software that is gimped to not be a fully operational Turn Watcher. $15 for the fully operational program and $3 a piece for a 5 pack of clients would double your profit on each sale to a "group" of players.

Glad i could help with the feedback (no wonder i havent found answers anywhere around)

just let me know when its ready to download :)

In order to uninstall the turnwatcher debian package, the command should read:

dpkg -r turnwatcher (no .deb extension)

Also, on my system I get "Package libltdl3 is not installed." The
trouble is that if I do apt-get install -f, apt attempts to uninstall
turnwatcher because there is no libltdl3 (I'm running Ubuntu 9.04
64-bit). It looks like we need to link against libltdl7 for Ubuntu 9.04.

Alexis, it looks like we have the same library problem in the tarball for the 64 bit version of linux. My workaround suggestion was to download the tarball and attempt to run it from the command line but to no avail. :(

manahtar, thanks for hanging in there. We will get your problems resolved. Please let us know how the new debian package worked for you.

New files available for download!

manahtar,

There are new files available for download. Please, download the demo again, make sure you remove the old version with:

  dpkg -r <filename>.deb

then install the new one as expected:

  dpkg -i <filename>.deb

I did not change the version since the files all come from version 1.4-m2osw2.

Let us know if you have any other problem.

Thank you.
Alexis

Missing libraries!

In reply to Problem installing in ubuntu 9.04:

I guess you are the first person to test with 64bit (outside of us) and we probably checked with our development environment installed...

The main libraries are missing from the package. We have to regenerate the package and make sure that the libraries make it in there...

this is what i got running

In reply to Problem installing in ubuntu 9.04:

this is what i got running the directory

cannot access /usr/lib/mo/1.3.0/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/: No such file or directory

same with the other command

and im using the 64bit version of 9.04

thx for the quick replys btw

Broken install...

In reply to Problem installing in ubuntu 9.04:

Ah! Nevermind! 8-)

It looks like dpkg cannot execute the post installation script properly.

Hmmm... at this point, no clue! Let us know if you use 32 or 64 bit.

Missing files?

In reply to Problem installing in ubuntu 9.04:

I checked both i386 and amd64 and both .deb files include the JPEG loader and other loaders.

You can verify with the following command:

  dpkg -c <package.deb>

Would you please try

  ls /usr/lib/mo/1.3.0/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/

and let us know whether you can see the mentioned missing loaders?

Also, did you use the turnwatcher-bin binary directly or did you use the shell script turnwatcher? Without the shell script some variables will be missing.

Thank you.

Is this Ubuntu 9.04 for 64bit?

In reply to Problem installing in ubuntu 9.04:

Is this Ubuntu 9.04 the 64 bit version? Or i386?

Thanks for the quick
