I downloaded and patched the Imagination World v2 to 2.1, copied the eduke32 source code to it and compiled it

Got the error GAME.CON not found so I renamed GAME.con to GAME.CON

and now, I'm getting this error

The referred sound file won't play because coughg.wav doesn't exist. The other warnings refer to the normal behaviour of the game. Even the original game's CONs will trigger similar ones. -> Everything should be OK.

[Sangman]

It's not entirely clear to me which revision of Eduke32 you're using for your build, but be aware that more recent versions of it have extra CON code validations that are not compatible with IW. Unless I'm misreading what you're doing you should use the source from an earlier revision. The binary included in a patch on Moddb (for Windows that is) is r6490. Alternatively, you can try just fixing that invalid quote error it throws up (seems to be the only thing preventing it from starting) but it's quite likely other things will be busted. Still, probably worth a shot.

The log file format implies recent or latest sources.

Sorry, I didn't realize it was an actual error, not just a warning. Unpack the attached dummy sound file (1 second of silence) into your IW folder to fix.

Tried to remove that line. Game runs, but no music and a lot of graphical glitches.

Tried to compile the 2011 version of eduke32 into it and got this error

In file included from source/sdlmusic.c:36:

[mustdos]

Note that I did a clean "reinstall" of my IW2 folder + update patch

[LeoD]

The 2011 sources probably require SDL 1.2. You'd need to install SDL 1.2 + dev package(s) I assume.
I'd recommend trying r6491, though, or latest. (r6490 was reverted the very next day.)

Guess I should install an older Linux version or Windows on a virtual machine and hope it works.

Unless there's some other way

[LeoD]

Just tried this myself (Win10/64), and it crashes the shit out of me (svn6491 debug, r10066 debug, and a few others): sound mess-up which required reboot, debug-assertions, mimalloc errors, NVIDIA/OpenGL out-of-memory, etc.
Seems unplayable for me. I've even found a batch file hinting that I tried to retrieve debug data back in 2010...
No unexpected graphical glitches, though.
For completeness' sake: fixing 'invalid sound' leads to 'invalid quote'. Can be fixed by adding "definequote 210 # Better stay away..." before IWVARE.CON's line 311. Or by having GAME.CON include USER.CON prior to IWVARE.CON.
Giving up.

[mustdos]

Thanks for the help anyways. I remember It ran better back on Windows 7, but didn't have time to complete it.

[Sangman]

Weird, I just tried it on my end (Win10, 64 bit) and it works just fine.
