[Linux Lobby] AFLobby Beta 3.9.7

[AF]

I dont use linux so you'll have to find a second person who can rcreate this error.

[AF]

I've tested out some window resizing code in the next version and it seems to work well, save a few graphical issues, for example the close button at the top doesnt stay at the right as the window gets wider.

[det]

AFLobby wont work with Java5 as the GTK support is completely broken. Java6 has no graphical issues for me. I do have a problem when I enter my information and click the login button, however.

As I said before, betalord changed the protocol and as such the TASSERVER command sent at startup is no longer compatible with AFLobby alpha 11.3 or older.

[AF]

I have a few UI improvements for alpha 12. See in that screenshot at the top, the click here to view pages? Clicking it pulls out a page with thumbnails of every single page or window in AFLobby all grouped into categories.

As you can see I've resized that page too, and it works, although some items arent quite correctly placed, thats being worked on.

Screenshot taken in Vista Business edition.

Further progress

Further progress

I saw this and collected a few possible icons for it all 128x128 which is the biggest they come

[AF]

I was meant to ahve thumbnails. It was setup to create an image out of each JView component and then draw it, but they all show up as white boxes =(

So I thought about icons but its nice to know someone pre-empted me.

I like splash.png and the keyboard. Not so sure about the styles but fiddling the colour scheme of the files would work. Perhaps if they're made semi translucent white with a few simplifications of details.

Anyways, right now the feature is fully functional save the thumbnail glitch.

I think I'm missing some dependences or I have done something wrong. Do you have a readme file or some instructions. When I try to run the .jar I get this:



Running ubuntu edgy 6.10

Edit: If I hover over areas I can find "log into lobby" etc..., but it's still a little borked. Also, I cannot seem to log in, when I press "go" nothing happens.

Edit 2: Command line output

Are you using Sun Java or another Java vm? And does it correct itself temporarily when you resize the window?

Perhaps its soemthign todo with the java runtime, I use Java 6, so if someone on windows could test using java 5 if thats what you're using.

I changed the main viewpoint to a latered pane and then put the old pane inside it so that I could use several main views, such as the page picker screen.

By the way does anybody notice that these sorts of graphical issues mainly arise with ubuntu users? I've not noticed any reports outside ubuntu of these things.

How do I find out, I used http://www.getautomatix.com/ to get java. All I know is that I am using Java 5 runtime.

I am unable to resize it.

That might be simply because ubuntu is the most popular desktop flavor right now.

running mandriva 2007 here, and sun java 6; the grafics works (& i can resize the window)

i'm stuck in the login screen as well, i think it cannot find the correct unitsync library/bindings in linux.

here's the stdout report after i try to login.

I'm getting Java 6 runtime right now. I'll get back to you once I'm done.

Edit: All visuals are perfect under Java 6, but I cannot log in. It just stays on a "logging in" screen. If I input the incorrect password or username it can identity it saying that it is incorrect. So it is connecting to the server.

Do I need to place the .jar in a certain directory?

[AF]

ah yes, kloot said he'd get a version of unitsync with java bindings.

If you cant wait, look in the Mac OS C thread towards the end where I've linked to the necessary file that needs compiling into unitsync.

[AF]

http://www.darkstars.co.uk/randomfiles/ ... itSync.cpp
compile unitsync.so with this file added in. You'll need to have the java jdk to build it for JNI.h, but do share it if you build it!

Repeated exactly on my install ubuntu 6.10 running gnome I will test under kde its still this GTK problem when is JAVA 6 comming out?

It's not out officially yet for some unknown reason (ubuntu can be slow at this sort of thing) for (k)(x)ubuntu, but you can install it manually by getting it at java sun. That's what I did.

JNI-aware UnitSync.so available here

Dump the file next to AFLobby.jar and rename it to 'unitsync.so', that should give you a fully functional lobby.
