repository evolution-rts-shard.git not found

I've just tried to clone the git repository (git://github.com/spring/spring.git -b master) on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system. After entering my credentials for github, I encountered the following error message:

Code: Select all

remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/EvolutionRTS/Evolution-RTS-Shard.git/' not found
fatal: clone of 'https://github.com/EvolutionRTS/Evolution-RTS-Shard.git' into submodule path 'data/ai/EvoRTS' failed
Failed to recurse into submodule path 'AI/Skirmish/Shard'
Seems like the repository has been removed? Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

Was the result of submoduling. It was not known initially the submoduling is not a good thing (in theory it sounds awesome, in practice, not so much).

This has been resolved though. Are you trying to clone HEAD or an older revision?


edit: Clone develop instead of master.

as alternative when you need to build 103 with all ai's you can use the tarball:
https://springrts.com/dl/buildbot/defau ... .0/source/

also the AI's are optional, these are not required to build spring: but you maybe want them for some reason :)

Thanks for the answers!

I've used the tarball and installed the engine. I can now start the engine but how to load a game? I've cloned the SpringTutorialGame.sdd repo to ~/.spring (I had to create that folder, it was not initially set up on make install). But I cannot start that tutorial game because it is not listed when I start spring. What am I doing wrong?

I want to learn some about the game development using the spring rts engine, so I need the source codes.

Thanks for the help!

you have to move it to ~/.spring/games so it shows up in spring, see https://springrts.com/wiki/Games#Instal ... _in_Spring

then you have to download a map to ~/.spring/maps and then spring should detect the files.

to find errors its best to look into infolog.txt or start spring from the console.
