The Freeciv source code successfully compiles & runs in OS X, IF you have the x11 terminal that Apple offers.
This is NOT the standard terminal that ships with OS X.
You can download the Apple x11 terminal at:
macOS Sequoia brings effortless window tiling, web browsing with fewer distractions, new iPhone Mirroring, and support for Apple Intelligence.
Note: I had to run ./configure with "--disable-nls" to get it to compile. And the graphics aren't the best, but I'm holding out hope for version 1.15 to be better.
I am attempting to create a binary that will run outside of x11, but between classes and sleeping, I don't have much free time to spend programming for fun.
Note 2: Freeciv doesn't just run as one program. You need to start the server as well. I recommend starting the server using the normal terminal. Sometimes x11 causes bus errors when two or more x11 terminals are running. Furthermore, nice, bg, and nohup don't seem to work consistantly on OS X.Last edited by cverlo; December 17, 2003, 12:02.

free civ on os X
I tried to install it and got through the config ordeal (i had to disable natural language support) but then when I went to make it I got the following:
[c-24-5-34-113:~/Desktop/freeciv-1.14.1] ezeerb17% make
make all-recursive
Making all in data
Making all in misc
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

make[3]: *** No rule to make target `iberian-peninsula-136x100-v1.0.sav', needed by `all-am'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
Could someone help explain what went wrong?
