[cod] COD5-Plus Centos 5.2 wine/cod installer final

I don't know, has it been tested to work on a version of Wine other than
1.1.10? If you don't include the compile of this version there is no
guaranty that person will have a working version of Wine. I think its
best to leave it and just have a Linux install as a separate script.

Hey guys, I am starting work on the updated version which will not have
to compile wine, but I am wondering if you guys feel there is a need to
maintain the compile option. My first thought is "no" as if and when the
bins come out, I will likely just update the script to just perform a
COD5 server linux bin installer - which in turn would then likely be
able to support pretty much any linux version. Although after this one,
i am playing with the thought of porting the script to include debian
support. But that possibly may not happen until early January. Might
squeeze it in if i can though.

 

Just curious before i start writing.

		I am not too familiar with debian at all, but I imagine
it would not be hard to do. It would mostly be a matter of finding out
what the packages are named in debian, and replacing the CentOS related
install commands with debian specific ones.
		
		Now to do that, I have a few quick questions regarding
debian.
		
		1) installer for debian itself, or ubuntu?
		
		2) which version? I would prefer to use the latest and
move forward, but I am not familiar with the debians to know which one
most people would be using. I don't want to end up maintaining a boat
load of versions of this script. But don't mind have a target version
for CentOS, and one for a debian style system.
		
		3) would you be looking for the script to compile wine
as well, or just install from a repository (if available)? Thus making
it more of just a setup script for cod5 itself?
		
		
		4) and on the above note (3), one I have the rpms
available under CentOS for wine, is there any value in keeping the
option to compile wine, or should I just drop it and go rpm only, thus
making the script more of a cod only installer?
		
		
		
		Also moving forward, if and when certain *ahem* "files"
(bins) become available, I will be modifying the script to just automate
an install of that. And with those, I am sure I will be able to write it
to work on almost any Linux system as it would probably become more cod
specific.
		
		Is there even value in that for the community?

		Could you also modify the script to make it work under
Debian?

				This document walks you through the
install process to get COD5 (World

				at War) server running under wine on
CentOS5.2 With no "X"

				Environment. Included is a custom bash
shellscript installer to do

				most of the dirty work at the terminal.
It will fetch the required

				files (including COD5 Server files,
Wine, etc), compile wine (without

				x support), and configure a server.cfg
and startServer.sh script. Upon

				discussion on the CentOS mailing list,
Dag Wieers (one of the

				packagers involved with the CentOS
project and major contributor to

				RPMforge) will be rolling up a nice wine
1.1.10 RPM (needed for COD5

				to work under wine)! So once that is
available after testing, the

				install script will give you the option
to either still compile wine,

				or use the RPM (MUCH faster, and less
dev tools to install). Providing

				there are no show stopping issues with
the RPM.

				 

				Mirror away!
