Hi,

I am working on a script for the GOG-Version of Seven Kingdoms - Ancient Adversaries. Unfortunately, the games only seems to work on Linux if the exe provided on 7kfans.com is used (e.g. http://sourceforge.net/projects/skfans/files/Seven%20Kingdoms%20AA/Executables/7kaa-patch-2.13.2.zip/download). Note that the game is under GPL and thus it is legal to use this exe. Is it possible to streamline this in the installation script, i.e., after the normal installation automatically download the exe-file, unzip it and copy it in the folder, where the games was installed?

In the following is my script so far (basically copy/paste from another GOG-script, but aside from the issue descriped above it works)

?

Are there some generic images available for top and front? (since I am not really talented in doing graphical stuff)
Regarding the screenshot, I have not figured out yet how to make one.

Hi, and welcome aboard! ;)
To download and install the replacement executable, you'll probably something like
?

cd "$POL_USER_ROOT/tmp"
POL_Download 'http://sourceforge.net/projects/skfans/files/Seven%20Kingdoms%20AA/Executables/7kaa-patch-2.13.2.zip/download' 'ea603670d78e8dacea65f1b309c41d73'
mv download 7kaa-patch-2.13.2.zip
POL_System_ExtractSingleFile 7kaa-patch-2.13.2.zip 7kaa-patch/7kaa.exe "$GOGROOT/Seven Kingdoms - Ancient Adversaries/7kaa.exe


If you don't provide setup pictures the default ones will be displayed.

Hope it helps!
Pierre.

Is the script ready to be submitted?

Hi,


POL_SetupWindow_SetID 1228

This has to match the script number in the repository; The script number is displayed in the URL at the moment of submitting it, don't forget to update it then.

(It doesn't do much, just add an (i) icon in the installer window, leading to the web page of the script. If it's wrong it will lead to the wrong script)


# suggested on winehq
POL_Wine_Direct3D "DirectDrawRenderer" "opengl"

I doubt it does anything useful, opengl renderer has been the default for a while now. The suggestion is 3.5 years old...

It also feels a bit strange to create the shortcut before the executable has been replaced, creating the shortcut is usually what is done last in scripts
For example if the script is interrupted before the end it could look like the installation succeed, yet the user experiment problems because (s)he doesn't use the right executable, and support may need some time before realizing what's going on. (For this reason I also wouldn't overwrite the executable, but write the new one alongside the original one. If they're both of similar size that'll waste 500kB of disk. That would be 5% of my first harddrive, but who cares those days)
Unless there's some reason, like the GPL executable doesn't contain the same icon?

Thank you for the hints, I've changed it and submitted the script for validation (as well as my script for Praetorians).
