Build error on JK2sp

[Boothand]

Generated with cmake, JK2sp engine, game and renderer -> Debug gives files but they tell me SDL2.dll is missing from the system.

 

I try Release, they tell me, in the middle of the compile:

 

 

The latter happens consistently, taking it out of git directories, restarting computer etc.

To clarify, JKA isn't needed to run JK2SP on OpenJK, right?

[ensiform]

Its not saying which executable was being used unfortunately so its difficult to say.  This can happen if the game is still running if you're launching from the build directory, or it could be one of the compiler tools, cmake, etc.

 

Did you turn on all 3 build jk2 things in cmake?  You must use the JK2SP Client, JK2SP Game, and JK2SP Vanilla Renderer for JK2.  There is no startup +set com_jk2 1 or anything like that.  You still need to copy the SDL 2 dll to your game directory of course as per usual which is prebuilt for you.

[Boothand]

Yeah, building all three, but I don't get any SDL2.dll generated or something.

As for a process being used, I tried closing Cmake, restarting computer before opening visual studio again etc. Though only Release stops mid-compile, debug also says cmd.exe exits with code 1, but I'm left with the three files. VS2015 community.

What does the build output say? That might have some more information as to what's happening.

That means jk2 built just fine. The assets part for mp dlls didn't package is all.

[Boothand]

SDL2.dll is missing from the Release build too, though. So still can't run it.

[ensiform]

Because you've not put it in the directory with the game.

 

It's under lib/SDL2/bin and select x86 if older than vs 2015 otherwise you want the x86 2015 one.

It's copied if configured to install. As the buildbot does include it for jka.

[Boothand]

Oooh, thanks! Works.

[Smoo]

Does it run better with openjk?

[ensiform]

In theory yes but not necessarily as it was grafted to the jka engine and there are issues with modern compilers, saves, and such.

 

If you have the pack files for glow you can have dynamic glow and such for example.
