Rigs of Rods (Sourceforge Project of the Month)

I had to start from scratch too after my failed upgrade to -current. I ended up reinstalling 14.1 so it was defiantly from scratch

Freeimage has to be before ogre or ogre will error out due to lack of png support.

I get a freeze or segfault when its loading terrain though

Well, lowering the graphics and selecting a simple terrain it work for a while. I think it may just be too much for my laptop. But I know the packages are good now, will install on my son's next.

Good to know that it worked! :-) I've updated the build order in my previous post so it will be easier for others to build packages.

I should be able to try it on my son's box shortly, we built him a desktop and he has the best graphics in the house so now that I have the packages his should be pretty quick

I finally got a new build machine which builds Rigs of Rods just under one hour, so I updated the packages that were broken since the last updates and also built the latest GIT code from Rigs of Rods.

I've made a little change: wxWidgets has been replaced with the full wxGTK3.

So the full package list for installing RoR is now this:

Code:

FreeImage MyGUI MySocketW OpenAL angelscript nvidia-cg-toolkit ogre ogre-caelum ogre-pagedgeometry ois rigsofrods wxGTK3 zziplib

Also, the website for Rigs of Rods is currently down, since the original owner gave up. Looks like it will take a long while until everything comes back, so I mirrored the two biggest content packs with vehicles and terrains here:

You can extract them into ~/.rigsofrods/packs to get started. Tested on 64bit -current only, but SlackBuilds are available, too (see signature). Have fun
