Latest ioQuake3 source patched for Irix

[stormy]

Hey all,

If anyone is interested I was recently sick with the flu and had some time on my hands so I patched quake 3 source to compile on Irix (6.5, sgug-rse) just posting it here if anyone would like to play around with it without having all the Hassel of making it compile in the first place.

ioq3.tar.gz

I left my compiled binaries in the build folder for anyone who doesn't want to recompile or has a very slow machine. Of course you'd need to get your own idsoftware Q3 Pak files as I can't include them.

There seems to be an issue with SDL2 in sgug (we think) where it can't open an accelerated opengl window. Hopefully some magical code pixies can come and fix that...

I'll make a list of the changes I made when I have some time. But it wasn't anything major. Just adding header files that Irix needed in different places. And the odd compiler option here and there.

Cheers

Nice work! At some point I'm sure one of the usual SGUG-RSE porters might be willing to work with you to get it packaged as an RPM, then one could just tdnf install it

I managed to get SDL2.0.12 compiling and linking.

When using SGUG LD_PATH ioquake3 segfaults.
With default LD_PATH is starts but can't find any visual.

I can compile and run SDL code with software renderer, but no accelerated renderer.

Can't figure out to get any OpenGL code to link with SGUG GCC.

I end up having to link libGLcore.so but then there are undefined references to different XSGIMisc functions.

@Dacobi Thanks for trying. Apparently someone called Avatar has made a working SDL2? Mentioned here: https://forums.irixnet.org/thread-3372.html

If he *has* why he hasn't contributed it to the sgug-rse project I wonder. Maybe there just needs to be some dialogue between the two camps.

I just tried compiling ioquake3 my self, but I keep running in to the same problem.

/usr/sgug/.../9/include/stdint.h: fatal error: stdint.h no such file or directory
9| #include_next <stdint.h>

With SDL2 I "fixed" it by adding -ffreestanding to CFLAGS.

Is this a bug in SGUG RSE 0.0.7 or something with my install?

@onre also has a working SDL 2 in an RSE environment using his own set of patches (it isn't unique to irixnet) but it didn't make it into an RPM. Unfortunately @onre is taking a break from SGI things at the moment, but it's possible someone else has his work around.

Hey @Dacobi if you fancy compiling an SDL1 compatible version of ioQuake3 I extracted the patch file from the Nekoware ioQuake3 1.36 from the beta archives. Here are the files. Only thing I don't know is what the exact version was of ioquake3 they used, I think it's a very old version.

As an update, it seems like @drmadison is cleaning up SDL 2 for inclusion into the SGUG RSE repository.

The current SGUG-RSE has SDL2 but CPU-bound and not OpenGL accelerated. ioQuake3 would be a fantastic use for this when it's nice and fast.
