Wrath: Appease or Die!

The intended combination would be to use KbA for the controls, but to display button_id_to_char(KbA) to the user (in case their 'should-be-A' key has a different name).

I guess that :a as the key name should still mean KbA in Chingu, but you should have a different hash for user display. That would solve the problem.

Does this work on linux as well? IIRC, the linux keys were not returning the expected values.

Right, if you have any idea how to fix this please let me know. On Linux, KbA is always 'a'. :(

Well, I've implemented it in my controls settings and it should work where gosu works then :)

Hi Spooner. Since I first start trying out Gosu, I've been trying to load a few games by yourself and lol_o2 to little avail. One time, a number of months ago, I was able to get Wrath to load up and work on my brother's mac, and we played several rounds - it can get very competitive! I am still trying to figure how to run the game straight from Ruby (i.e. not the .exe or .app) on Linux (Ubuntu 12.04).

A few months ago I didn't have enough tools in my toolbelt to make try to figure this out. But now that I have a little bit better understanding about a few things, I think I'm ready to try again.

I have made it as far as the game window popping up before getting an error. When I execute "ruby wrath.rbw", I get a bunch of DEBUG information in terminal, and then I get the following:

[2013-08-24 16:37:52 -0600 INFO] Opened window at 768x480 (X4 zoom)

/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p362@sampleGemset/gems/gosu-0.7.48/lib/gosu/swig_patches.rb:44: stack level too deep (SystemStackError)

Do you have any suggestions?
Best wishes,
ml

Try using "bundle install" and then "bundle exec ruby bin/wrath.rbw" to start it up. That will prevent it from using a "bad" (read: unsupported) version of Gosu.

EDIT: Wrath runs correctly on my machine with Gosu 0.7.46 via bundler.

By ml Date 2013-08-24 22:56

Wow you're fast! I was using "gosu", "~>0.7.41" in the gemfile, which installed Gosu 0.7.48. I just changed it to "gosu", "0.7.46" and then updated the bundle install and everything.

I am still getting the same thing, including when I run it with "bundle exec". When I execute "bundle list" from the /wrath folder, I get:

Gems included by the bundle:
* bundler (1.2.3)
* chingu (0.9rc9)
* chipmunk (5.3.4.5)
* clipboard (0.9.9)
* ffi (1.0.9)
* fidgit (0.1.10)
* gosu (0.7.46)
* r18n-core (0.4.14)
* r18n-desktop (0.4.14)
* texplay (0.4.3)

If you are still getting an error in that swig file, I don't really know then. jlnr is the only one who groks swig on any level. Sorry!

I just checked and my Linux system is 32-bit. Not sure if this could have something to do with it?

By Spooner Date 2013-08-25 00:33

I can't imagine that would be a significant issue.

By ml Date 2013-08-25 03:35

Thanks as always for your help. I'll keep chipping away at it....

I saw this a few moths ago; I just had so much fun with it that I forgot to post. Oh, the irony :P
––––––––––
This game is simply outstanding. I played it with my brother and a few of my cousins (as soon as I found it), and we had so much acting like idiots in-game :D
I would say, this is one of the most professional-looking Gosu games that I have played (though unfortunatley we can't play There's No Place Like Homeless!!! haha), honestly. I just love it.

By ml Date 2013-08-24 22:45

Same thing happened to me, more or less. I played it several months ago on my brother's computer, and it is the most advanced Gosu game that I have been able to successfully load and try out (though still not working for me on Linux....)

I concur that it is outstanding!
