follow the readme in the .tar.gz file that you download regnum in
most things that you need will have automatic or graphical installs. for some rare things you will need to compile the source code first. It's pretty easy to do.
after you have your downloaded file from regnum's website
first, create some directory. probably called /home/INSERTYOURUSERNAMEHERE/regnum
by copy/pasting this code
then use the graphical unpacking tool to extract the contents of the .tar.gz file. extract it to your /home/yourusername/regnum directory (you just made it with the above code, ~/ is a shortcut to your home folder)Code:mkdir ~/regnum
then type these codes
(changes the "place" that you are in your computer to your new ~/regnum directoryCode:cd ~/regnum
configures the files needed to compile the codeCode:./configure
makes the install fileCode:make
installs your programCode:make install
that should give you regnum. enjoy.
NOTE: I'm not sure if extracting regnum creates it's own regnum directory with all the stuff inside, or if it just creates the mess of files. If it creates it's own directory, then you can do cd ~/regnum/WhatEverTheNameOfTheNewFileIs instead of just cd ~/regnum
The Download from the site was binary for me, so what you need to do is.
After that you are all GUI.Code:mkdir ~/regnum
cd ~/regnum
wget http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/downloads/files/rolauncher.tar.gz
tar xzf rolauncher.tar.gz
./rolauncher
it's a binary now? sweet! it's been so long since I downloaded it...
You guys are awsome, thanks. Just one question (this may make you facepalm so beware) How do i get to the Gui installer after I enter that code in the terminal?
If you run that code one line at a time, it will create a regnum directory, take you there, download the installer, extract the installer, and run the installer - the installer run from the terminal should bump you automatically (or after a couple simple yes/no questions) into the GUI installation interface, with the terminal running behind it.
If you can't get to the installer with these instructions, check if a new directory was created in your ~/regnum directory when you extracted the installer.
You should also be able to run "sudo ./rolauncher" to install Regnum for all users on the computer, instead of limiting it to the account that's currently logged in.
i had to use "$ MALLOC_CHECK_= ./rolauncher" to get it to work with gusty 7.10 Ubuntu and Kubuntu.
I found a link to a 64bit version. I couldn't get sound to work with the standard install, but this one works awesome for me.
64bit
I tried this, but I just get a coredump :(
