The game now supports the latest version of ProjectM for visualization support, which is officially packaged by Arch. Before this, you had to self-compile a very outdated version of ProjectM. I recommend adding support for visualizations, as I think it enhances the experience nicely for songs that lack video.
To do so, add libprojectm to depends, and add --with-libprojectM to the configure arguments.
opencv should probably be listed as an optional dependency too (it's for webcam support)
@Mr.Zero88 hmmm but that would only be necessary if opencv is actually used, correct?
add !lto to the options to fix the linking issues with newer opencv options=(!strip !lto)
@jose1711 thanks. unless it's the only way to keep it in the AUR I'd rather not co-maintain though, sorry. it would end up meaning less time I can spend on USDX itself. that said, if something important changes I'll post it here. also don't hesitate to just create a github issue if there's an issue with the AUR build
@barbeque makes sense, added. btw any interest in co-maintaining?
@jose1711 I would say it is. It creates consistency with our other distributions (Windows, Mac, flathub, appimage). Technically you're not wrong in that that wiki page lists !strip, but it also mentions debug and gdb, neither of which are actually needed for the stacktrace (last I checked using gdb will also make it slow to the point of unusable, so you can't reproduce anything with it anyway)
Whereas with a non-stripped binary it Just Works.
You might need !debug !strip, that's how I build mine and iirc it's about a 5% increase. It's been a while since I made my PKGBUILD (I only enable the debug part if I need to profile something).
(sorry for late reply)
When PS3 SingStar mics are plugged in I get a crash with this version that does not happen when I build manually from source with current master branch. Could you update the version please? Or is it something else? See here for details: https://github.com/UltraStar-Deluxe/USDX/issues/496#issuecomment-3879908485
@barbeque is non-stripped binary required for a common usage? because !strip is mentioned in https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Debugging/Getting_traces for those who need this option anyway.
This package requires options=(!strip) for recently added built-in error stacktraces to work. Without it it only pops up a bunch of memory offset numbers, which aren't very helpful.
See https://github.com/UltraStar-Deluxe/USDX/issues/786 for context.
