Welcome to Pesterchum 3.41!
|
|

=============================
|
|

|
|
||||||
## FOR NEW USERS
|
|
||||||
This modification of Pesterchum is intended for people who are already familiar
|
|
||||||
with using the base client.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you aren't, please check the standard build's [documentation][pchum-doc].

|
||||||
## FOR EVERYONE ELSE
|
|
||||||
Greetings! This is a modification of Pesterchum, made because Pesterchum is
|
|
||||||
effectively no longer maintained, that is intended to fix a number of issues.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The code used as a base is a newer version of Pesterchum than the one in
|
|
||||||
circulation, and thus has plenty of useful features that can be found in the
|
|
||||||
[CHANGELOG][changes].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In addition, there are other features and improvements that have been made, and
|
|
||||||
there are many more planned. Check the [TODO list][todo-done] to see what's
|
|
||||||
been fixed, as well as what's [planned][todo-upcoming].

### Installation
|
|
||||||
There isn't an automated installer yet, but the steps involved aren't all that
|
|
||||||
difficult.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Pitfalls
|
|
||||||
* If you're on a 64-bit system (and most are these days), use those links. You
|
|
||||||
can also use the 32 bit versions, if you choose, but you *cannot* mix them.
|
|
||||||
* If you're on a 32-bit system but use the 64-bit installers, you'll get an
|
|
||||||
error along the lines of "not a valid Win32 application", or the
|
|
||||||
installer will simply fail.
|
|
||||||
* This version of Pesterchum does not come compiled as an executable, and thus
|
|
||||||
does not have Python/PyQt4 packaged with it. Those are necessary for
|
|
||||||
Pesterchum to run, so you have to install them manually.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### First-Time Install
|
|
||||||
Download links are for Windows, but a quick Google search will find everything
|
|
||||||
necessary.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Install **Python 2.7** or higher if you don't already have it:
|
|
||||||
* [32 bit][python2-32]
|
|
||||||
* [64 bit][python2-64]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Be **sure** to add Python to the PATH if asked to do so during
|
|
||||||
installation. It means Python will be usable from the console,
|
|
||||||
which is necessary for this to run.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Install **PyQt4**:
|
|
||||||
* [32 bit][pyqt4-32]
|
|
||||||
* [64 bit][pyqt4-64]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **(LINUX)** Install **pygame**:
|
|
||||||
* [pygame download page][pygame-dl]
|
|
||||||
* You don't need to install this if you're using Windows. Linux users need
|
|
||||||
to install it to enable sound, but it will otherwise work without it.
|
|
||||||
* If you want to download this, you should probably do so using your native
|
|
||||||
package manager.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Download **Pesterchum**:
|
|
||||||
* [Download from main branch][pchum-zip]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. Unzip Pesterchum somewhere easily-accessible.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
6. **If you have any custom themes**, copy/paste them into the 'themes' folder.
|
|
||||||
You can find this in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\pesterchum`, which is the same as
|
|
||||||
`%APPDATA%\..\Local\pesterchum`. Copy/paste one into Explorer's address bar
|
|
||||||
and you'll end up where you need to be.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Oftentimes the 'themes' folder doesn't exist in Pesterchum's user-specific
|
|
||||||
config folder, so you'll have to make it and copy the custom themes into
|
|
||||||
it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
__If, for some reason, that doesn't work:__
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can also copy the missing themes into the 'themes' folder of the version
|
|
||||||
you just unzipped. **Don't overwrite any files** if you do this - the themes
|
|
||||||
used by this have been updated, and the older default themes may break when
|
|
||||||
used.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
7. Run Pesterchum! How you do this depends on the OS:
|
|
||||||
* **(WINDOWS)** Run `w32-run-pchum.bat`.
|
|
||||||
* **(LINUX)** Run `./pesterchum`, preferably via terminal.
|
|
||||||
* Note that this is made to provide debugging information - so that if
|
|
||||||
errors come up, they can be reported to me, and I can fix them.

#### Upgrading
|
|
||||||
**NOTE: This only applies to those who already have this patched Pesterchum
|
|
||||||
installed.**
|
|
||||||
**DO NOT extract this into a folder containing pesterchum.exe, because it WILL
|
|
||||||
break.** Read up to **First-Time Install** if you're installing this version
|
|
||||||
for the first time.
|
|
||||||
Otherwise...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Just re-download the [Pesterchum zip][pchum-zip] and extract it over your old
|
|
||||||
installation, replacing everything that was already there. That's all there is
|
|
||||||
to it!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Having Problems?
|
|
||||||
I can't offer much help in this regard; if you're getting errors, feel free to
|
|
||||||
try to contact me, but if you're having trouble with the installers, there's
|
|
||||||
little I can do. [How to install Python][howtogetpython] might help; failing
|
|
||||||
that, Google saves lives.
