Question: SDL2 compilation?
AngryPhantom opened this issue · 1 comments
Hello, guys.
I'm using Arch and sdl has changed to sdl12-compat. Now I'm having some video issues like lags etc. The performance is not that smooth as it used to be with sdl and it's crucial for me since I play a lot online and offline (when I train my movements and firing).
After some googling I've found this link: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/2xklb4/psa_you_can_build_openarena_with_sdl2_new_libs/
It says:
An instruction for Arch:
$ yaourt -S --needed sdl2 git base-devel
$ mkdir ~/oa && cd ~/oa
$ git clone -b experimental/latest-libraries-sdl2 https://github.com/OpenArena/engine.git
$ cd engine
$ make -j4
But I'm not using yaourt and never had. Just don't know if it's the right instruction.
Anyway, the question: is it possible to compile OpenArena with sdl2 instead of sdl?
Sorry for being a bit of a noob. Thank you in advance.
Never mind. Figured it out already. Sorry. The only thing I've noticed: console history doesn't work when pressing arrow buttons on the keyboard.
