Phun Portable Dev 2

Application: Phun
Category: Games
Description: Phun is meant to be a playground where people can be creative. It can also be used as an educational tool to learn about physics concepts such as restitution and friction.

Phun was coded in C++ using OpenGL, GLEW, SDL (for window management), SDL_image (for reading images) and boost, including boost_filesystem. Everything was coded by Emil Ernerfeldt, including the physics engine and user interface.

Okay, here it goes:
  • There's no readme.txt under app
  • Under AppInfo.ini, the website should be Portableapps.com/PhunPortable, not Portableapps.com/Phun
  • Still no readme.txt or license.txt under Source
  • Line 22 of PhunPortable.nsi, Name should be in quote marks ""
  • Not PhunPortable.ini Anywhere
  • *Optional:* Add the comments into the launcher (makes it look more proffesional ;)).
  • I got this on the first run:
    workdir = C:\Documents and Settings\all\Desktop\PhunPortable\App\Phun\
    Loading language English...
    Parsing C:\Documents and Settings\all\Desktop\PhunPortable\App\Phun\autoexec.cfg
    ...
    !! ERROR: Failed loading config file: Failed to open file "C:\Documents and Sett
    ings\all\Desktop\PhunPortable\App\Phun\autoexec.cfg"
    Creating window...
    46 resources loaded
    Window created.
    Loaded scene _ONEXITSAVE.phn
    Running program...

    I think DefaultData is the way to go

  • Make sure that the user doesn't close the command window. You'll have to make the launcher launch a batch file that changes to the title to "Phun Portable Window [DO NOT CLOSE]" and echo that Phun Portable will close if you close this window.
  • In the help file, you might want to add the bullets from https://portableapps.com/support/portable_app
  • You don't need to link to phun twice in the help file, with the links next to each other ;).

That's all I could catch. I love having Phun! :P.

Couple questions.

What do you mean default data is the way to go? I have no clue how to make or run the .bat file. Can you help with that? What does "Not PhunPortable.ini anywhere mean? Thanks for the help! Smile

This holds true for ALL of

This holds true for ALL of your apps.

You need to stick to the existing naming convention. All of your test release names should be in the following format:

[AppName]_Portable_[App Version]_Development_Test_[Test Version]_en-us.paf.exe

AND STOP DELETING JOHN'S COPYRIGHTS FROM YOUR LAUNCHERS

John's Copyright?

I thought we put our own name in on the launchers.

license issues

first let me say that the video on their website of this app in action is awesome. now i'm not 100% but i don't think this app is open source ...yet. i didn't see anything about the license except "free for non-commercial use" and there's no link to download the source code. their FAQ says this:

Is the source code going to be released?

I'm planning on it, yes, but I haven't decided on a license or set a date yet.

So as awesome as this app look, i don't think we can distribute the app with the launcher yet.
