<h1>TORCS Setup</h1>
|
|
<h3>Permissions</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Because we want later compile and install your driver, we have to change some permissions. We assume
|
|
that the username is uname and it belongs to the group ugroup. Simply replace uname and ugroup with
|
|
your real values. Do (still as root)
|
|
<p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
# cd /usr/src/<br/>
|
|
# chown -R uname:ugroup torcs<br/>
|
|
# cd /usr/local/share/games<br/>
|
|
# chown -R uname:ugroup torcs<br/>
|
|
# cd /usr/local/lib</br>
|
|
# chown -R uname:ugroup torcs<br/>
|
|
</tt>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the sound doesn't work, you have perhaps to put your user in a group like "audio". Look
|
|
up your distribution manual for more information about sound. You're finished with administrator
|
|
stuff, so you can go back to your normal user account.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Environment</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Now we have to set up some environment variables. That you don't need to type this all the time,
|
|
you put it best in your shell's rc file. For bash on SuSE that is .bashrc in your home directory.
|
|
Copy the following on the end of the file. Don't forget to put a newline after the last line in
|
|
the file:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib<br/>
|
|
export TORCS_BASE=/usr/src/torcs/torcs-1.2.4<br/>
|
|
export MAKE_DEFAULT=$TORCS_BASE/Make-default.mk<br/>
|
|
</tt>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Open a new terminal with a shell to check if the .bashrc did its job. Check if the variables
|
|
have the right values. We will do now a final check if everything is set up correct by recompiling
|
|
a single driver (remember, you are working now as normal user in a shell where the above variables
|
|
are set):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
$ cd $TORCS_BASE<br/>
|
|
$ cd src/drivers/tanhoj<br/>
|
|
$ make clean<br/>
|
|
$ make<br/>
|
|
$ make install<br/>
|
|
</tt>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If everything worked without errors, you are ready now! Execute</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
$ torcs<br/>
|
|
</tt>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If TORCS hangs or something went wrong, double check the stuff and look up the
|
|
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=3777" target="_parent">torcs mailing list
|
|
archives</a>. And you know, if you get stuck... the <a href="mailto:torcs-users@lists.sourceforge.net">force</a>
|
|
may be with you.<br/>
|
|
On the <a href="http://torcs.org" target="_parent">official TORCS site</a> is a nice guide how to set
|
|
up your joystick with TORCS. Look at "Sections", "How-To Drive".</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Command Line Options</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>-s: disable multitexturing (for users of older graphics boards, e. g. i810, ATI 3D Rage LT Pro or Matrox G400/G450/G550).</li>
|
|
<li>-m: use the system mouse pointer and do not hide it.</li>
|
|
<li>-l: list the dynamically linked libraries.</li>
|
|
<li>-d: run under gdb and print stack trace on exit, makes most sense when compiled with --enable-debug.</li>
|
|
<li>-e: display the commands to issue when you want to run under gdb.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
