Can't seem to build or run with Mono in Linux #11

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Trying to get running in Manjaro, Monodevelop doesn't have a clue what to do with any of your project files, keeps looking for MS libraries. Mono itself doesn't like running the exe and there doesn't seem to be a Linux executable in the release archive. Any chance you could point me in the right direction?

You need to install Mono develop and Monogame libraries

You need to install Mono develop and Monogame libraries

I made 100% sure this was installed, trying to run the game using mono gets me Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type of field 'FSO.Client.GameStartProxy:Game' (0) due to: Could not load file or assembly 'MonoGame.Framework, Version=3.4.0.459, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

And trying to load any of the projects in monodevelop gives me The type initializer for 'MonoDevelop.Projects.MSBuild.MSBuildEvaluationContext' threw an exception.

You getting Monogame version issues, seems you need to use 3.4 for it suppose and Open gl also needed (soft_openal)

OS: Manjaro Arm64, Manjaro x64 Same issue, I am using Mono 6.12.0.107, openal, opengl and SDL2. Anything else we need?

Build/setup instruction need to be documented on the Readme

Unhandled Exception:
System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type of field 'FSO.Client.GameStartProxy:Game' (0) due to: Could not load file or assembly 'MonoGame.Framework, Version=3.4.0.459, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

Any progress on fixing this?

Is asking to build with Monogame 3.4, try that version

coreybruce commented 3 years ago

Everyone has moved on to newer versions of mono like 6.12 and no longer available unless I download and build it manually, 3.4 came out back in 2015 so maybe you should update it to support 6.12 and newer and not a static version as it result in old code running into complications. I've got other projects using mono 6.12 just fine in Linux.
