Unable to run ToME 2.3.5

#1 Post by Elronnd »

I downloaded the source for ToME 2.3.5, compiled, everything went fine, but when I ran it, I got no output. If I ran it with "-h" as a command line argument, I got some helptext, but that was all. Any advice?

Where did you get the source and what operating system are you using?

None of the developers has responded. I had trouble compiling it under Ubuntu, so I installed the windows binary under Wine. That works fine.

How do you run it? Did you just click on the executable, or did you run it from the terminal (if so, please show the command), or...?

If you run it from a terminal you should at least get some output.

FWIW, I believe that v2.3.5 contains code that modern stack-protection (and similar security mechanisms) won't accept... and which will crash v2.3.5 almost immediately IIRC.
