Wesnoth is a great multi-platform strategy game. There are versions for Linux, Mac, and even Windows. It's turn based, fantasy style, and open source. You can go to www.wesnoth.org for more information.

wesnoth-1.2.4.pup 67MB

This also needs libsdl, libsdl-image, and libsdl-mixer. Libsdl and libsdl-mixer can be installed through PETget. I attached libsdl-image at the bottom of this post.

In case you're having trouble with getting PETget started (blank list syndrome or death-upon-clicking syndrome), here are direct links to libsdl and libsdl-mixer from ibiblio:
libsdl-1.2.9.pet
libsdl_mixer-1.2.6.pet

There are several other SDL packages floating around, including some that MU's 3DCC program can install. I do remember that the one in 3DCC includes libsdl-image, but I don't know if it has libsdl-mixer or not. Also, Pizzapup 3.x comes with libsdl and libsdl-image already, so it just needs the libsdl-mixer package.

Okay, you can download it now. Sorry for the delay. My website is being strange (changes appear through ftp, but not http. Must be some kind of server-side caching or something). So, I uploaded the game to dotpups.de and attached libsdl_image. Enjoy! (I know I will Very Happy

DAMNIT!

I just spent 2 hours compiling it and its dependencies...

Oh well. Thanks anyway!

I was just wondering if there's an updated .pet package for this game?

I actually compiled the new one (took ages...)
You can find it here

A couple of caveats though:
1. It's compiled with --smallgui so it will fit on the Eee PC screen. This means that the interface will be a bit odd if you use it on a normal screen, nothing too major, just the logo moved over, the menu bar moved a bit, some buttons tweaked.
2. I don't have a mirror, which means you'll have to download it from my mega-slow server.

Good luck

Is there one that's not configured for EEE PC? Preferrably in a .pet package?

Er.

"Probably not" is the answer, but with a side dish of "just maybe".

I can recompile it without but I need somewhere to host it. You will need the same dependencies from the thread I mentioned before, so grab them now.

I'll post here and PM you when it's up. I'll use RapidShare or something.

Any other requests? Smile

(That means "Yes, I will recompile it for you", by the way)

OoOo that would be much obliged. Very Happy

Well.

Sorry that took so long, I've been offline for a few days. But here it is.

Dependencies:
libSDL
libSDL_image
libSDL_mixer
libSDL_net
Boost C++ libraries (maybe not- it might just be for compiling, try it without and post results back up here)
Python (optional - for advanced AI)

Many thanks to MU for the hosting.

Hello

I have a small problem. I installed absolutely all the packages which are in the previous post. But I still don't have all files : at the installation, it tells me that the file "liboost_iostreams-gcc42-mt-1.36.so.1.36.0" is missing in /usr/bin/wesnoth. I searched for two weeks, but I still can't find it.

Could you help me please ? :/
