This is an updated post with the steps changed to accurately work for the latest CVS checkouts of tenebrae.

1) Fetch the CVS checkout of tenebrae_0.

Thank you, blk_jack !!

I tried to get tenebrae run on my gentoo machine but it didin't work out. It didn't even compile.
I was quite upset, because it worked on my friends Red Hat Box.
Well, now tenebrae compiles, but when i start it, it says:

quarus@coyote) ~/quake >./tenebrae.run
FindFile: can't find gfx/pop.lmp
Playing shareware version.
FindFile: can't find gfx.wad
Error: W_LoadWadFile: couldn't load gfx.wad

It must have something to do with the pak files. Can you tell me, where to place them ??
Thanks again for your work !

It is indeed something with the pak files. Make sure you edited the Makefile in tenebrae_0/linux/ and changed your MASTER_DIR to your quake directory. Once you change that variable to your quake dir you'll have to recompile tenebrae so do a 'make clean' before the recompile. Of course you also need the quake/id1/*.pak quake pak files.

If you've done all that maybe it has to do with not finding your tenebrae pak file? If -that-'s the case I suggest you download this and uncompress it to your quake dir.

Hope this helps!

Be nice. Write an ebuild :)

By the way, writing an ebuild is easy as explaining the steps here :P

Ok, there is now a "official " _short_ How-to at the tenebrae CVS Respositry. The author was "inspired" by blk_jack's tutorial on this forum.

I tried it but i got Segmentation fault. I use gentoo1.4rc1 with gcc3.2, could the gcc version be the problem?

Thanks Stolle

Okay I just compiled the newest CVS checkout of Tenebrae *WITHOUT* having to patch it. I just updated the first post to reflect the modern CVS checkouts.

You're gonna have to post more info than that.

Kernel? GCC version?

oh sorry
running gentoo 1.4 with gcc 3.2 and a vanilla 2.4.19 kernel
that enough?

I found out what was wrong the common.c file had an error in it. I just reverted back to the previous version and it worked.

tenebrae 1.04 can now be found in portage ...
you dont have to do any opengl-update trickery ... just
`emerge tenebrae`, setup your data dir, and play

i'm going to be working on a quake1 data set like the quake2-data ebuild since we've got quake1, quakeforge, ttyquake, and tenebrae in portage

in my post i said you have to setup your data dir ... i wasnt lying

link or copy the id1 directory into /usr/share/games/quake-data/

I had (have) quakeforge installed, so I had all my pak files in ~/.quakeforge/id1/ and all that. To fix the problem I deleted ~/.quake/ and symlinked ~/.quakeforge to ~/.quake and everything worked.
