BLT 2 Update for BLT4Linux

[dribbleondo]

May as well post it here, But I managed to port over the Base files from regular BLT to make it work on BLT4Linux. It admittedly wasn't that hard to do. I just had to delete calls relating to finding image files for mods.

Grab BLT4L 2.1 fix here
Grab BLT4L 2.2.1 fix (this is more up to date!)

The only downsides are that because I've deleted the portion of the code that tells BLT to load images from mods, images don't load in the new swanky download manager. Also no controller support in the download manager...

The update isn't really necessary, but for those who want BLT 2 functionality in BLT4L, go nuts!

[RomanHargrave]

I was just thinking about this today. I have some time before work tomorrow that I can take to see if any changes to the BLT native API are necessary for immediate compatibility with the BLT lua.

So far, the only thing the loader appears to be missing is the ability to load icons from mods, but i'm sure you'll be able to find other things =)

[Kazenin]

May I download and test this newer version? Many mods does not work with current version of BLT4L

[dribbleondo]

Go ahead. It's made to work, though BLT 2 got an update to make the update system bit faster, so if you can hold off for a few hours, i'll update the relevant files for BLT4L compatibility.

Okay, new version is up HERE ,not tested it as i'm not on my Linux partition at the moment. Gotta play Paladins somehow =)

[Kazenin]

I will test here. By the way, I use Fedora 26 and I will feedback you later. Thanks, mate

[dribbleondo]

Okay, got onto my linux mint partition, and i made a boo boo: Here is the fixed version

[Kazenin]

Well, I tested.. and the game does not open. Verifying with ldd:

libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => not found. This package is already installed. Do you have any idea?

[RomanHargrave]

@Kazenin

This package is already installed. Do you have any idea?

Make sure you have the 64-bit version installed, and then make sure that that package actually provides that file. Run ldconfig (as root) and check that the file shows up.

You either have a newer or older version, and thus an incompatible libcrypto, or your ld and library path is mismanaged/misconfigured.

[Kazenin]

@dribbleondo Do you have the source code and compile instructions? the pre built did not work for me. Thank you so much

[dribbleondo]

I should've clarified @Kazenin ,the loader is completely unchanged from BLT4L P1. the only thing that has changed is the files and folders within the "mods" folder. If you already have a working loader that you have compiled, then give that a go.

[hellow554]

How does this differ from the original lua scripts?
Okay, it only differs by the GetModImage function. My solution should be "the better one", because it makes it possible for me to show up the BLT Mod Menu.

Also: i do occur a strange error, because you commented out the GetModImage function completly. I managed to get it working by just returning nil

base/req/BLTMod.lua

function BLTMod:GetModImage()
    return nil
end

[dribbleondo]

I didn't think of that. I'll update my version to 2.2.2 later. @RomanHargrave I'd make a new prebuilt download (or nick the one I've made here) as some mods, once updated to be BLT 2 compatible, don't work at all on BLT 2 p1 or below.

[RomanHargrave]

@dribbleondo I'll run off a new set of prebuilts

@punkkeks BLT lua should be able to detect if its running with BLT4L because we have a version API. I need to let James know that so that we can at least get some compatibility

[hellow554]

awesome, thank you ❤️
