First things first, if you have a Windows build, double-click on iceball.exe.
|
|
|
|
Things to check if it fails:
|
|
|
|
*** Is this file in the same folder as iceball.exe? ***
|
|
If so, you extraced the .zip wrong.
|
|
You *MUST* retain the correct directory structure.
|
|
|
|
*** Have you tried running it in the command line? ***
|
|
Open opencmd.bat, and run it from there.
|
|
See if you get any errors.
|
|
You don't need to worry about stdout.txt/stderr.txt with the official builds,
|
|
however if you built it yourself, you may need to check those files.
|
|
|
|
*** Does opencmd.bat not work for you? ***
|
|
Um, you will need access to a commandline *somehow*.
|
|
|
|
*** I typed in the iceball-gl -c thing and it doesn't work! ***
|
|
Did you hit enter?
|
|
|
|
If so, and you get an error,
|
|
take a screenshot or a copy of the EXACT text in your command prompt,
|
|
and we can extend this section.
|
|
|
|
*** Does it *actually* crash? ***
|
|
Give us a screenshot of the commandline window showing how it crashed.
|
|
|
|
The best idea?
|
|
Run it in a debugger such as GDB (available with MinGW32).
|
|
|
|
If you're using GDB, run it like do this:
|
|
handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint pass
|
|
run
|
|
and then when it crashes, type:
|
|
bt full
|
|
|
|
Note, if you get a SIGPIPE/Broken pipe "crash",
|
|
you didn't set up the debugger correctly.
|
|
I *think* this might be a non-Windows issue though.
|
|
|
|
In my case I tend to prepend the commandline with "gdb --args ".
|
|
|
|
Someone else can elaborate here if necessary.
|
|
|
|
*** How do I change my name? ***
|
|
Did you read the built-in tutorial? It mentioned a file. What was it called?
|
|
|
|
*** Anything else? ***
|
|
Join us on IRC: #iceball @ irc.quacknet.org (NOT quaKEnet!).
|
|
This really should be on a wiki somewhere.
