I somehow understand more about game scripts from this guide: https://www.pocketplane.net/tutorials/simscript.html than IESDP. And why not follow the code in VS Code run-by-line (F10/F11)?

There were far more active modders back then.

So fast after the last release! Nice, but what is the subviews branch about?

Yes, CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX did work, thx!

It compiles properly when -DPREFIX path does not begin with "/" sign, but then the path is rubbish.

It didn't help. CMakeError.log begins and contains many of such messages: Compiling the C compiler identification source file "CMakeCCompilerId.c" failed.

I haven't uploaded anything yet. Maybe auto-merge instead of keep-old would be better for GLOBAL_WRITABLE_FILES and/or adding USER_SETTINGS_FILES as in for example https://github.com/haikuports/haikuports/blob/master/games-emulation/retroarch/retroarch-1.9.2.recipe ? There is also an optional section TEST(){} with commands to run a simple test the installation. I also thought about adding displaying README or copying it to the desktop because in the haiku-depot someone gave a one-star rating in German because he didn't know how to install BG2 under Haiku and didn't know what to do next after installing gemrb.

There is a central repo: https://ports-mirror.haiku-os.org/gemrb/ and here is the official .recipe of gemrb: https://github.com/haikuports/haikuports/blob/master/games-engines/gemrb/gemrb-0.8.6.recipe so I copied and edited it as gemrb-0.8.7-git.recipe, I changed SOURCE_URI= to https://github.com/gemrb/gemrb.git, deleted CHECKSUM_SHA256 and SOURCE_FILENAME, changed SDL_1.2 to SDL2 added -DSDL2_INCLUDE_DIR=/boot/system/develop/headers/SDL2/ to cmake command and ran haikuporter -S ./gemrb-0.8.7-git.recipe, and it ended with error "gemrb-0.8.7 not found in tree". I guess I would have to add that recipe to haikuports on github.com, but how to test it first locally?

I googled this explanation: So I run cmake again as cmake -DSDL2_INCLUDE_DIR=/boot/system/develop/headers/SDL2/ -DPREFIX=/system/non-packaged/ .. and make install doesn't fail anymore. To install it normally one would have to create a gemrb.recipe file and install it using the command 'haikuporter -S ./gemrb.recipe' or so I've gathered but not yet tried. /boot/system/non-packged/bin/gemrb works normally and I've discovered that Fullscreen from ingame works only when the window was not manually resized previously. Once one resizes it the thing showed in the gif above happens.

The outdated package provided by haikuports was build using sdl 1.2, but I managed to build the newest git version using SDL2. cmake had problems finding the headers from the properly installed libsdl2_devel package so I had to use the option "cmake -DSDL2_INCLUDE_DIR=/boot/system/develop/headers/SDL2/ .." (apparently a common issue with SDL on Haiku). make install also fails, so I manually edited paths in GemRB.cfg to all unhardcoded, plugins dirs etc. to the the source directory. Resizing the window works, enabling fullscreen is weird but at least you can somehow uncheck it.

I made a simple play test of GemRB in Haiku out of curiosity and I encountered a problem with mouse in fullscreen, that makes it unplayable. Is it a known problem? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy1OxwwTbbM&t=12m13s
