I managed to compile DoomRL 0.9.9.4 under Mac OS X on a 64 bit system, however it seems it has stability issues.

You will need to have the SDL Framework installed to test it...

DoomRL 0.9.9.4 MacOS X, 64 bit

Any comments, suggestions or help really welcome!

[Xecutor]

After I updated SDL and SDL_Image frameworks, it seems to work fine.
The only problem is - significant part of floor tiles are represented with question mark.
However, when I die, in graveyard, picture of level is fine, with dots as floor tiles.
I tried to run it in standard Mac OS X Terminal app.
Just tried to run it with X11 xterm - there things are even worse. It's not question mark. It looks like unrecognized unicode symbol (question mark in a white diamond).
Probably locale settings must be set to some specific locale?
Tried to set LC_CTYPE to "C", but it didn't help.

[Kornel Kisielewicz]

Open config.lua, find AllowHighAscii and set it to False.

[Xecutor]

Oh. That helped.
Now another issue. There is no num lock in mac os x.
In doomrl keypad switches weapons.
Playing with cursor+pgup/dn+home/end is possible, but not very convenient.
AFAIR there are two modes in curses for keypad handling.
And in one mode keypad keys produce some unique seqs of codes.
Just checked. If I call 'keypad(stdscr, true);' then keypad7 produces 27, 79, 119.
Hm. It works in Terminal, but it doesn't work in iTerm.

[Kornel Kisielewicz]

DoomRL doesn't use curses, it uses FPC video. But I'll look into the issue.

[brokenfury8585]

inital testing down to level 10 seems stable enough. Have not noticed any crashing. Being on a 10.6 laptop does provide a weird control scheme to get used to (no home,end,pgup,pgdn. Thank you edit keybindings). Sound files have played without issue, all graphics are accounted for. There was one issue in hells arena tho. it took a few taps of the enter key to get the text to show up and monster to load in. only happened once though and will try to repeat to have more occurances. But overall fantastic test build gents, hats off to you!!!

-found issue: after dying in a game, and restarting new game in same running instance. the  music does not start from the beginning and once reaches the end does not loop again.

Hello,

I eagerly awaited the mac release, so hooray!
So far i found two "bugs": 1. The music does not loop.
2. I have to press ESC multiple times. This happens both in iTerm and Terminal.app. Changing the Key helps, but this behaviour is kinda strange.

All in all I had fun playing, but the nonlooping music was quite a bummer.

2. I have to press ESC multiple times. This happens both in iTerm and Terminal.app. Changing the Key helps, but this behaviour is kinda strange.

Side effect of terminal emulation mode -- when you press Esc once, the terminal is waiting for the escape code.  This is a similar problem that appears on the Linux version.

Hi,

I just tried to start it on my Macbook (Lion 10.7.1) with the linked SDL framework (and the mentioned SDL image framework) installed but get the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/SDL_mixer.framework/Versions/A/SDL_mixer
  Referenced from: /Users/<username>/Temp/doomrl-osx-0994/./doomrl
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap: 5

Any ideas how to get it running?
Thanks!

Once I figure out how to do a dmg, I'll package those into the download probably.

[Rift]

Thanks, its working now!

Installed the three frameworks, works sorta OK in iTerm, Terminal, X11, except:

-The music doesn't loop.  Others have mentioned this, but I would add that once the music stops looping, it breaks all of the sound effects.
-I noticed that picking up ammo would look like "You found  of 10mm ammo" with a blank space where the number should be.
-iTerm worked better for showing non-ASCII glyphs (edit: terminal seems fine as well), but it had trouble with the rightmost and part of the leftmost column.  Edit: fixed by updating iTerm
-X11 is the only one showing the bottom line of display ie tactics and current level

Thanks for working on the build!

SDL frmws installed, then in iterm i've got the following error:
X11 vrsn is ok
An unhandled exception occurred at $000000010005743E :
                                                      EInOutError : File not found    $000000010005743E
                     logout
Oh yes, macbook air(4.2); OSX 7 

[Kornel Kisielewicz]

Is there more info in the error.log?

[VANDAM]

Solved this...
To avoid this bug you should launch iterm then cd to doomrl install dir and ./doomrl that's all.
But, if you launch doomrl in finder... I think that the current directory sets wrong.
