Re: OT: Linux
Just untar it over the directory. Despite tar's archaic options, I prefer doing this from a command line, so something like this should do the trick:
<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>su - tar -zxvf /path/to/patch/dompatch212_linux_x86.tgz /usr/local/games/dominions2</pre><hr /> Sorry about the star (No, it wasn't me, honost!) |
Re: OT: Linux
"overriding" files in a linux command line is done by either copying or moving the source file to the target file.
So either 1) <font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>mv /home/lukeskywalker/myfile /whereeveryouwantthefile/myfile</pre><hr /> or 2) <font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>cp /home/lukeskywalker/myfile /whereeveryouwantthefile/myfile</pre><hr /> Option 1 would remove the source file whereas 2 would keep it. EDIT: Looks like Esben beat me to it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif - and yes Esbens Version is probably the easiest in this particular situation. |
Re: OT: Linux
My dom2 game installed in
/usr/games/dominions/ and it put the dom2 executable in /usr/local/bin/ So I didnt need a path change. Seemed to work fine that way. Of course it was an system wide install done as root, not a user install on someone elses machine (which is possible but ends up in a different layout) |
