failed to extract data from my Starcraft CD (FR version)

[legluondunet]

Hello, I try to use stargus, but it failed to extract data from my Starcraft CD (FR version)

% ./stargus --extract
sourcedir:/run/media/legluondunet/JEUX/Dos-Windows/Warcraft/Stargus/stargus/src/../
Running extractor as './startool' -v -s '/run/media/legluondunet/JEUX/Dos-Windows/Warcraft/Stargus/stargus/build/build/src/Starcraft' '/home/legluondunet/.stratagus/data.Stargus'
archive-directory #0: /run/media/legluondunet/JEUX/Dos-Windows/Warcraft/Stargus/stargus/build/build/src/Starcraft

Extract from "/run/media/legluondunet/JEUX/Dos-Windows/Warcraft/Stargus/stargus/build/build/src/Starcraft" to "/home/legluondunet/.stratagus/data.Stargus"
Please be patient, the data may take a couple of minutes to extract...

this output doesn't look like it comes from the latest master. stargus is in a heavy developing state, did you build it yourself?

[legluondunet]

yes I compiled stargus myself, directly from git, like this:

git clone https://github.com/Wargus/stargus.git
cd stargus
mkdir build
cd build
meson build ..
ninja -C build
./stargus

But I use Manjaro version of Stratagus:

% stratagus -v
stratagus: option requires an argument -- 'v'

extraction is independent of the stratagus version. but you will need stratagus master to launch stargus once you get extraction working.

[timfel]

ah, wait, now i see. yeah, you cannot use the stargus launcher right now, that one hasn't been updated to work with the rewritten extractor. you'll have to use startool directly, and then launch the game with cwd in the git checkout and -d pointing to your data directory.

[timfel]

also, please remember that nothing in the game is working right now

[legluondunet]

The screenshots on the Stargus Github page might lead users that the game is playable with Stargus. It would be good to warn users on the main Stargus Github page that Stargus is not functional at the moment and report the above two informations (Stargus functionnal status), wouldn't it?

[timfel]

Well, if you stay on a release you can play :) The last one is 2.4.1 from Nov 2016. I don't think we make any promises about any Stratagus games on master

Just commenting to mention that Startool is not working on macOS either.
