Couldn't open file /Users/AM/Documents/GitHub/base

Any idea ?

Together me and Phelom managed to solve the problem

If you have this issue, make sure to run the 'vagrant up' command from the client directory (usually Documents\GitHub\client)

Lesson 2 is on the wiki, all you need to know about using GitHub.

Feel free to PM me if there are any LUA questions.

I've modded most everything except call-backs at one point or another. Now while I'm not actively modding I could fill-in the blanks as needed.

Cheers

Hi,

just reporting an issue I encountered when I tried to use the github faf client, the tcp connection was failing and couldn't connect to faf at all, so I checked the logs and it was saying that I needed to update(and it downloaded one), so just go to config/version.py, and replace at line 100 the version by "0.11.3" (so it becomes return "0.11.3") or whatever the last version is. (thx yorick for the tips)


-----
EDIT : So I tried to have the exe to try on another computer, because when you do python src you start directly the faf client. So I've searched for answers, discovered that I have to use appveyor, so there was a appveyor folder, so ofc I've launched the 2 files, but then I don't know, after a while I discovered this link:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Sheeo/client

and then I try to do the python setup.py bdist_msi but I don't have bdist_msi and I don't know how to continue... Anyone knows?

EDIT2: Ahah I've understood how it works, so in fact the link I've seen was a website where you can build your application, so in order to build your project :
>Upload your stuff on github
>connect to appveyor website, make an account, add your github account on it, then choose the good repository, and then build thanks to the website. But a problem is still here, the build is done but how do I get it back... oh god.
Of course when the build is over, it seems like it's trying to mmict on my git but it says:
creating "error grabbing git version : list index out of range 0.11.3 +7" release for repository blabla commit blablabla . and in red : error creating github release : error reading repository 401 unauthorized... What a nightmare just to build, wtf.
