Glest is a free 3D real-time strategy game, where you control the armies of
|
|
two different factions: Tech, which is mainly composed of warriors and
|
|
mechanical devices, and Magic, that prefers mages and summoned creatures
|
|
in the battlefield.
|
|
|
|
This requires glest-data, xerces-c, lua, jam, and OpenAL.
|
|
Optional build requirements: wxPython.
|
|
Optional addons: glest-megapack.
|
|
|
|
According to the manpage, you should go into the Options menu and run
|
|
"Auto config" before the first time you play the game.
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to compile wxPython to have the additional map editor
|
|
(ie. glest_editor) then pass HAVE_WX=yes to the script:
|
|
HAVE_WX=yes ./glest.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
The map editor will only build with wxPython. If you pass HAVE_WX=yes
|
|
and have wxGTK installed then the slackbuild will fail.
|
|
|
|
Additional translations can be added to glest from:
|
|
http://www.glest.org/files/contrib/translations/
|
|
Just unzip the file(s) and put the appropriate *.lng file into
|
|
/usr/share/glest/data/lang/ directory. It will be automatically picked
|
|
up at next game play.
|
|
|
|
Note: According to the readme_linux.txt file, glest doesn't seem to work
|
|
with the mesa drivers. Using the ATI or NVIDIA drivers will work. For any
|
|
additional game-specific issues, see readme_linux.txt in the docs directory.
