I can confirm that the code compiles fine with the new updates.

Hey vami, thanks for the heads up. I've updated the package based on your findings.

I don't know if this package is actively supported or users have interest in it, but I have managed to compile it with up-to-date GCC and sdl12-compat libraries.

In CMakeLists.txt I've added the following lines just below CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED:

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 14)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
set(CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF)

Probably build fails with GCC > 10 since according to the documentation C++17 standard is default since GCC 11+. Then avp builds fine. Build with SDL2 doesn't work yet, probably requires some porting from upstream.

I think there could be more elegant solution, but hopefuly that might be resolved by someone else.

Thanks for the heads up, fixed.

Hi, this PKGBUILD is also affected by this gcc10 bug, and the small patch fixes the issue: https://github.com/neuromancer/avp/issues/7

Hi CyberConan, sorry for the slow response. If you make the sources available on somewhere more suitable (e.g. github) rather than just dropbox, then I'd be happy to make a PKGBULID for it. Just make sure you read the LICENSE file with the orignal source code and adhere to it.

Hi WorMzy, I'm ArchLinux user too and if you want, I created suplemental code than enable videos and music. The resultant new compiled version have still some glitches in audio but works. Please, if you would like include the new features, don't replace this AUR with original icculus code, instead this, create an avp-extra with the new code. For me your avp AUR was great help for to do changes in original code. http://discourse.ioquake.org/t/planned-features-from-the-morphos-version-in-the-linux-mac-port-of-avp/439/2 Thanks a lot of for your work keeping this and many other PKGBUILDs.
