dirty_ruby tutorial error and deprecation warning

[bio...@gmail.com]

Hallo -- I'm just trying the First Moves (dirty_ruby) tutorial, and I
have an error that won't even let me get past the first call of ruby
script/runner!
When I try to run the code, I get the following error:
<ERROR>
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/shattered_pack-0.5.1/lib/
shattered_state/base.rb:95:in `create_viewport': undefined method `[]'
for #<Ogre::Camera:0x2d8b7e0> (NoMethodError)

game_loader.rb:30:in `run'
from ./script/runner.rb:4:in `start_game'
from script/runner:8
</ERROR>

Also, I don't know if these are related, but I get a couple of other
weird things.
One is a deprecation warning:
<WARNING>
Warning:c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:
importenv is deprecated after Ruby 1.8.1 (no replacement)
</WARNING>

The other is a "OGRE Engine Rendering Setup" dialog (that the tut
doesn't mention) with only a Direct3D9 option in the drop-down box (no
mention of OGL).

Can anyone help me past these?
I'm dying to get playing properly!
Cheers,
Doug.

Sure can!
First, don't worry about the deprecation error. We will fix this soon

Not sure about the other one, which ogrerb version do you have
installed?

Ah. I suspect I'm about to look very redfaced.
Um... None?
I just installed the Shattered Ruby gem -- do I need to install Ogre, too?
Or a brain transplant?
Cheers, man.

You should have everything you need if you run

C:\>gem install shattered_ruby --include-dependencies

Maybe try uninstalling it and reinstall it.

I'll give that a bash, cheers.
   Doug.

[doug livesey]

Nope, that didn't work!
For the record I "gem uninstall"ed: shattered, shatterred_ogrerb, shattered_pack, and shattered_support.
I then ran "gem install shattered --include-dependencies", and rebuilt the tutorial project from scratch.
All to no avail, sadly!
The version of the shattered_ogrerb gem I have is 0.5.1 -- all my shattered gems should be the latest.
Is there anything else I can check?
Cheers,
   Doug.

[JeremyW...@gmail.com]

There are two versions of shattered gems out there you can either
A) "gem install shattered --include-dependencies"

or

B) "gem install shattered_ruby --include-dependencies"

The one that you want to do is B. Or at least that is the way it was a
month ago :) I'm not sure if Mikkel or Martyn changed it or not. In
any case, looks like you chose option A, so try option B and give that
a go. If you want, I will zip up my dirty_ruby project and send it
over. Mine works fine, you can use that to gauge what you are doing
through the tutorial.

Cheers, man -- I'll try that.
I just followed the instructions on the front page of the shattered ruby website (under the lovely Web 2.0 "Get Shattered" section), and that said to use the first command.
I'll let you know how I get on clearing my current installation and trying the other.
& thanks again everyone for taking the time to reply.
   Doug.

[doug livesey]

That's another hurdle down, cheers, man!
   Doug.

[JeremyW...@gmail.com]

Yeah, that page is pretty messed up right now. The only tutorial that
actually works is the dirty ruby, but even then there are still some
problems. Let me know how it goes.

Yeah, I got the dirty_ruby one working, thanks largely to your help!
So does the tetris tut not work?
I was about to try that -- I'm wondering if maybe holding off Shattered Ruby for a bit (maybe to learn Ogrerb?) might not be an idea.
Won't be easy, as I've been looking for something that resembles what SR promises to be for a lo-o-o-ong time, but I'm sure it would be worth the wait!
As a poll of the community here, would waiting for the next release be an idea, do you think?
& cheers,
   Doug.
