Aivolution. Crashes after I install

[Eversmile]

Hey!

I just tried installing Aivolution from http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/warzone/trun ... /?rev=2159 by replacing all the playerX.slo and PlayerX.vlo in my warzone.wz with the ones from the website. I have TortoiseSVN, but i have no idea what the SVN server actually is. After i installed, the game loads perfectly, until i begin a skirmish match. As soon as i click "OK," the game loads for about 1 second until I get a C++ runtime error. I used winrar to open and repack warzone.wz. I tried searching google and this forum, but I couldn't find anything similar.

Please help me if you can!

PS: Is there any other AIs that work with this version?

...until I get a C++ runtime error...

Wow! How did you achieve that? Concidering that we don't use C++ for Warzone 2100 currently (we use C, but not C++).

I used winrar to open and repack warzone.wz.

That's the proper method of editing the *.wz files.

PS: Is there any other AIs that work with this version?

To be able to answer that question it might help if you actually mention what version you are using.

As for AIvolution it only works with the current development trunk (or about 200 revisions back as well).

I have no idea. Considering you help make the game, I was hoping you could tell me.

Thank you, I was just making sure.

The latest version available from the website.

Any ideas? Thank you so much for your quick response by the way.

Aivolution won't work on the release versions because it requires scripting functionality since added in the trunk.

If you're using TortoiseSVN, create a new folder for Warzone and then right-click -> SVN checkout. When prompted, paste svn://svn.gna.org/svn/warzone/trunk into "URL of repository" and click OK. From this point, you will need to compile Warzone. Follow the guide on here: http://wiki.wz2100.net/development:comp ... de_windows

SVN information is available from the project's GNA! page:

I get the error: "Error * Malformed network data"  :-[ Is there anyway i can do this without SVN, or compiling it myself?

Edit: It just started working

Ah! That's just M$ calling it the "C++ runtime library" while it truly is the "C runtime library" (M$ is good at lying IMO).

I frequently get this error, but if you keep trying, brute force will prevail. Apparently a workaround is to use http:// instead of svn://
