I figured it out. I wasn't re-running the install. 'make install'. It was confusing because make generated a new .exe. Either it worked or the map generator failed in a way that generated a map. Next thing to do is refine it somewhat for continents/islands/Pangea. I added a line or two of text in se...

I'd like to know what to do to modify the map generator selector under the game options. I added another item to the generator enumerator. Then I added another map generator to settings.c generator_name() But the generator selection doesn't show up in the GUI. I'm working on a fracture (not fractal)...

Hurray! I got the game to run locally. I had to run xinit then run the game.
But now the issue is it shows up in a little-wee window in the centre of the screen. Is there a way to make the window much bigger ?
I tried clicking the full-screen option but it didn't do anything.

I've launched the server separately from the client. The server seems to run okay (there's no error messages). I'd like to try running games locally first. I can't test the client metaserver access because the client doesn't start. The other problem is the 'cannot open display'. It seems strange tha...

I get the following message trying to run the client: $ ./fcgui Unable to find client executable: freeciv.exe Searching for freeciv clients ... ... using ./client/freeciv-gtk3.exe Running ./client/freeciv-gtk3.exe 2: Didn't find the option file.

I tried that and it didn't work. But I got thing compiled now. I just copied libtool from the bin directory to the freeciv directory and it seemed to work. Both the server.exe and client.exe files got built. And running fcser seems to work. But running the client give me Win error 487. Connection to...

I got past the AC_PROG_LIB and AC_DISABLED_SHARED undefined problem. I un-installed and re-installed several different versions of libtool. Ran some installation scripts for libtool manually. libtool is all over the place. Now make complains about a version incompatibility of the libtool (2.4.6) it'...

Hi, I'm trying to build freeciv 2.5.2 under Cygwin and I'm running into a problem with the following two macros which aren't defined: AC_DISABLE_SHARED and AC_PROG_LIBTOOL It looks like the LIBTOOL var isn't defined as anything. The configure script returns "7678: AC_DISABLED_SHARED: command no...
