@tribestorm the package is currently at its most recent release as per https://github.com/magefree/mage/releases

Any idea how to get fonts to look better?

Is it possible for the launcher script to pick the correct Java environment automatically if more than one is installed? Currently I have runtimes for OpenJDK24 and OpenJDK8 installed on my system, and in order to play XMage I have to archlinux-java to switch environments before running XMage, which is rather inconvenient.

@zwastik You should be able to download openjfx using a browser. If you have trouble with that or can't get openjfx to compile, xmage includes a secondary pkgbuild that uses a different java that doesn't require openjfx.

I got some errors with java and this update with (newly added?) detox, and I noticed I'm not the only one, so I'm going to share how I got it working. If making the package results in:

...
==> Removing existing $srcdir/ directory...
==> Extracting sources...
-> Extracting xmage_1.4.48V1.zip with bsdtar
==> Sources are ready.
==> Making package: xmage 1.4.48V1-0 (Fri 19 Feb 2021 02:29:29 PM CET)

==> WARNING: Using existing $srcdir/ tree
==> Removing existing $pkgdir/ directory...
==> Entering fakeroot environment...
==> Starting package()...
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

error making: xmage

Then edit the PKGBUILD file as tnto pointed out and comment out lines such as:

detox -r -v ./* &> /dev/null

found around the 33rd line, depending on the PKG you are building. Then pacman -U the made pkg. If you launch mage-client and you get an error such as:

The simply follow what arachnid92 earlier in this thread. If you then get the error:

Unable to access jarfile /usr/share/xmage/mage-client/lib/mage-client-1.4.48.jar

Check if you have jre8-openjdk and java8-openjfx installed, if the error persists, remove the package with pacman -R, and delete the cloned xmage folder. Then start over again, but with few changes.

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/xmage.git
cd xmage
rm -rf PKGBUILD
sudo nano PKGBUILD-jre-8u201-x86_64 (and comment out said detox line, here on line 37)
sudo mv PKGBUILD-jre-8u201-x86_64 PKGBUILD
makepkg
sudo pacman -U xmage-1.4.48V1-0-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

It's not a guaranteed solution (it worked for me), but it's worth a try if you're having this problem, I guess, it even says it in the README.txt. Also, does anyone know how to fix the ugly font scaling?
