BerryBots pre-release testing help

Hey dudes - I'm gearing up to release BerryBots v1.1.0 with a full GUI for Mac/Linux/Windows. If any of you would be willing to grab this release candidate and test it on your systems, I would be super duper grateful! I mainly just want to know it launches and runs battles ok, but obviously any/all feedback is also welcome.

• BerryBots for Mac OS X v1.1.0-rc1 (requires OS X 10.7+)
• BerryBots for Windows v1.1.0-rc1
• BerryBots for Linux 32-bit v1.1.0-rc1
• BerryBots for Linux 64-bit v1.1.0-rc1

I just downloaded the windows version. It is launching and running battles alright, so far.

I'll also add that it has a very nice, simplistic interface.

Awesome, thanks Sheldor!

I get the following error with the Linux 64 bit version:

[andrew@host-110-86 berrybots]$ ./bbgui ./bbgui: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [andrew@host-110-86 berrybots]$ sh berrybots.sh ./bbgui: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Great, thanks for testing this! What Linux distro/version is this?

I think the cleanest solution is probably just to ask people to install libpng (and/or check that it's installed from an install or run script first). Maybe testing a few other distros to figure out what needs installing would be a good idea before release. I know it doesn't require anything on the last two Ubuntu's.

I noticed this game has a lot of fast-moving bright colors--many more than Robocode.

It would be wise to put in some kind of legal disclaimer, such as:

"Do not use this product if you have been diagnosed with epilepsy or any other photosensitive medical condition."

Hi mate,

Right now i have not much time to check it out, but on my macbook the app crash instantly.
