Where can i find a torquedemo (1.1.2) linux binary

Hello folks!

Well i was wondering if anyone has the compiled version of the torquedemo for Linux (release 1.1.2 and the debug version will be preferable). One guy in our team want to run it on his machine running Mandrak 9.1 RC1 and at the moment i cant compile it for him (i dont have Linux install on my machine anymore).

He has been using one of the RealmWars demo for now, but id like him to have the same version i am doing my test (1.1.2). And also they seem to be a problem with the worldeditor in RealmWars release (when we click F11 the player just fall thru the terrain to infinity!)

Thanks!

There is no precompiled 1.1.2 linux version. Realm wars is it. At one point, realmwars was supposed to replace the default torque demos, but it hasn't happened.

For your editor problem, you are probably just spawning below the terrain. You can use the camera to reposition above the terrain, then drop your player again.

I know they arent a precompiled version 8-(, this is why i was asking if they were a place i could get it (maybe a kind hearted person could do that for me ;-)). But i think it will be a good ideas and usefull for several people and they are already a win32 and macos version available so why not also put out the linux version?

Ahh a spawning problem? Well when we start RealmWars the orc is above the ground without any problem, but as soon as we click F11 (to get the world editor), the orc simply start to fall thru the terrain 8-(. Like if the collision with the terrain simply didnt exist anymore.

Hmmm...yes there should be a 1.1.2 binary available. Especially since I see that now the realm wars download page points to realmwarsgame, where there is no binary link for linux. So there is no sample binary package in an obvious location on the site.

I will look in to rebuilding the binary package after gdc...too busy to do it now though.

Indeed i saw the same thing last night when i went to see which version of the RealmWars on linux that i had install on my friend computer. But it is not there anymore 8-(, and it got worst since now my friend upgrade his Mandrake 9.0 to Mandrake 9.1 RC1 on his laptop and the build i install on his machine simply crash with a seg. fault 8-(.

Thats ok, for now he use his old desktop running Win2000. But let me know after the GDC for the rebuild. I dunno if you can then after that put the torquedemo 1.1.2 on the same page as the Windows & MacOS version are.

Thanks!
