[Codinablack]

BlackTek Server 1.0 (Dark Night Salvation)

Greetings eveyone! I am pleased to announce the first Official Release of Black Tek Server, BlackTek Server 1.0!
I know you are all eager to see the list of things that BlackTek Server has to offer as a 10.98 server, but first I would like to give recognition to those who helped to make the software I am proud to share with you this day.

In no particular order we have :

@forgee
@Silba
MillhoireBT ( aka @Sarah Wesker )
Ohman92 ( aka @ohman )
@Tofame
Frowsty ( aka @MeltingFrost )
@Gesior.pl

I would like to give a special thanks to the following people :

@Evil Hero for being there to help me on more than one occasion.
Jordan Ohare aka @manawa for workflow help, and showcasing BlackTek on Kubernates!
Zack Attack aka @iNux for setting up a gitbook for this project.


So the entire list of changes since 1.4.2 is quite massive (over 250+ commits) so I decided to break it down into four categories and create a condensed list for the two categories people care most about, features and bug fixes, while creating some graphical representations summing up a condensed overview of the changes in the other two categories, anyways, without further adu,

Hey dear friend!
I'm trying to compile on linux (ubuntu 22.04), using our bootstrap.sh but have this problem and cant solve:
EDIT* I just install ubuntu 24.04 and got the same error.

Edit again!
I solved that with

sudo apt-get install -y pkg-config

Thanks for letting me know about the solution as well as how you solved it. Could you maybe provide me with a bit more information about your setup? For instance, is it an ubuntu derivative like lubuntu or something? What CPU architecture? Where did you get the image you used to boot up the ubuntu? If you didn't download the image, what VM or service are you using? Is this a container? As much detailed information as you can supply would be very helpful, as we have already tested super thoroughly ubuntu 20+ in many different forms and versions, so this specific case would be most helpful to know as much about as possible!

Thanks again for posting here your problem and solution!

Just a heads up to anyone looking for more bug fixes after 1.0;

1.1 = 1.0 + Bug Fixes

I will be providing bug fixes to 1.1 while working on the latest branch (master, which will become 1.2 upon release), and once I have finished working on the latest branch and have a release ready for it, I will also release 1.1 as the final updated version to 1.0.

No source code changes besides bug fixes will be being applied to 1.1, but I could be convinced to possibly allow some lua code additions in, under right circumstances.

 

[Codinablack]

For any who ran into a problem with an invalid link, I updated the readme.md on the github and my signature with a non-expiring link this time. The one found in the console on startup is now expired.

BlackTek Linux working with Ubuntu 20.04 ?

 

[Codinablack]

BlackTek Linux working with Ubuntu 20.04 ?

No. Ubuntu 20.04 doesn't have full C++20 support, it comes with an older version of GCC that only has "experimental" support, and fails to compile due to the lack of full C++20 support.

Both Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 work perfectly tho, so I would again recommend to stop using outdated software.

Yes absolutely! As 502 already has shown you... there is also the development thread in discussions which you could subscribe to, I do periodically update that thread with new announcements
