Cannot compile about mapcrafter

[m0r13]

I think your boost-filesystem library is too old. Do you know, which version do you use?

[m0r13]

I changed this little function, I think it should work now with your version.

Thank you for the effort. Now the compiling goes further, but im getting a new error. The version of libboost-filesystem is 1.42.

~/bin/mapcrafter/src$ make
g++ -std=c++0x -Werror -O3 -I. -c mc/pos.cpp -o mc/pos.o
mc/pos.cpp: In static member function 'static mapcrafter::mc::RegionPos mapcrafter::mc::RegionPos::byFilename(const std::string&)':

make: *** [mc/pos.o] Error 1

Ok, I also had this old version on my server. I recommend you to download the source code of boost (recent version 1.52) and build boost from source:

./bootstrap.sh --with-libraries=filesystem,iostreams,program_options,test,iostreams,system --prefix=/usr

Then install it (after uninstalling the old version):

./b2 install --prefix=/usr

[mastis]

Ok, report back later. Thank you!

Update:
I uninstalled the old version of the boost and then i successfully installed the 1.52 boost.
Now I'm getting these errors:

It must be something simple, i just can't see it.

[m0r13]

I really like to help you, it's the first issue on my project. :D

I forgot to say that you should remove all your boost packages and then install the new boost. Then you can do a make clean and make it again. It should hopefully work then. :-)

I just figured it out, i cloned mapcrafter again and now compile was succesfull. Neat!

[mastis]

./mapcrafter -i ~/bin/minecraft-server/keinulammas/ -o ~/bin/kartta/ -d ~/bin/minecraft-server/keinulammas/data/ -j 2
Starting renderer for world "/home/username/bin/minecraft-server/keinulammas/".

Error Unable to load chest.png, largechest.png or enderchest.png!

[m0r13]

With data dir, the directory src/data from the source code is meant. You need there template/ and some minecraft images (See readme).

[mastis]

Sorry to bother again with my stupid questions. I have no such a files in my computer or in server. I extracted minecraft.jar in both computers, but im unable to find such files. Then i copied those images from google to mapcrafter/src/data directory. Now i try run the mapcrafter but it still saying the same error, even i have the files. Where should i place the png files? The png files are in data/ folder. I'm really confused at the moment.

./mapcrafter -i ~/bin/minecraft-server/keinulammas/ -o ~/bin/kartta/ -d data/ -j 2
Starting renderer for world "/home/username/bin/minecraft-server/keinulammas/".
Error Unable to load chest.png, largechest.png or enderchest.png!

[m0r13]

You can use the python script in the default data/ directory to extract the needed images from a minecraft.jar. Try to extract the images from a minecraft.jar (the desktop one you play with, I don't know if the server minecraft.jar also has this images) into the data directory. Use the -f flag, to overwrite already existing images.

And again, it's no problem for me to help you :D

[m0r13]

The images must be in rgba color format. Maybe your googled' images had a wrong color format or stuff. I think I should add better error messages there^^

[mastis]

This is from my desktop pc:
python2.7 find_images.py bin/minecraft/minecraft.jar
chest.png not found!
enderchest.png not found!
largechest.png not found!
terrain.png not found!

Also when i manually extract the minecraft.jar there is no such files. There is no png files in minecraft.jar. Could you upload the png files some where?

[m0r13]

Did you use the launcher minecraft.jar? You have to use the minecraft.jar from ~/.minecraft/bin/ .

If this does not work, I can upload the images later for you.

[mastis]

Ah there they are. Thank you for the help, i'm currently rendering my world. :)

[m0r13]

No problem. Have some fun with the renderer! :D

Hello.

Tried to install Mapcrafter, After successful installing boost 1.52 (with no errors, and according to your description above).

I get no errors when running "make all", but get this error, when trying to execute the compiled mapcraft (see bottom)

[AndersPier]

and the file is there
"[root@localhost src]# find / -name 'libboost_iostreams.so.1.52.0'

[AndersPier]

works like a charm after running ldconfig -v

[m0r13]

I recommend you to use the root user on linux only when you really need it, e.g. system administration. You can use a normal user for the most minecraft things.

I think I should make mapcrafter compatible with the older boost filesystems to make it easier to use mapcrafter with an older debian/ubuntu apt installed boost (maybe later).
