0.85 graphic bug & crash on Zero-K & Cursed

[Bosque]

Got the new 0.85 mac build, and it runs and BA 7.63 works. Does have a new bug though, there's some weird directional smearing. See screenshots attached to post.

Also as in previous versions, when trying to play some games (Zero-K & Cursed for example) they load, run for about 3 seconds, and then spring crashes. Infolog is at http://pastebin.com/HPvMgT8L

Ideas on how to fix would be great... Thanks!

Ah yes, the grass bug I get on my (older) Macbook: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.ph ... 4&start=20

[Bosque]

Turning off grass made the graphic oops go away, but Cursed and Zero-K still crash (as always for me) within 5 seconds of the game starting.

As another fun bit, since upgrading to 0.85 PA now does not spawn a commander and is unplayable.

I'd sure love to play something besides BA.

can you add an infolog.txt with a crash/stacktrace please?

[Bosque]

The infolog is attached to the start of the thread (the pastebin link). Not sure how to get you a stacktrace?

each time spring is started infolog.txt gets overwritten. http://pastebin.com/HPvMgT8L looks like it didn't crash, or the file is cut off?

when you start spring from console, does it show the line:

"Spring 85.0 has crashed..." ?

(this line should be in infolog.txt, too...)

[Bosque]

I don't know what to say other than that is the infolog from the crash, and it is the entire file, un-truncated.

For grins here's another one running spring from the console. http://pastebin.com/gVxmVTbd

this helps a bit:

Code: Select all

Illegal instruction

that wasn't in infolog.txt. i'm unsure why this error happens, searching for that it seems that either you are running a G3? or the stack is full?

i've currently no idea how to fix that.

[Bosque]

Hmmm, nope not a G3, it's a late 2011 Macbook pro, 2.3 Ghz i5, 4GB RAM, Intel HD 3000 GPU, running 10.6.8.

I do have a lot of graphics options turned off because the intel card just doesn't support them. Whatever it is it's something that Zero-K and Cursed do that BA doesn't?

you can try to disable luashaders if its not already disabled... and try to disable other gfx related settings...


zero-k / cursed afaik heavily use lua-shaders / lua-code...

[Bosque]

Lua Shaders is disabled, still does the same thing. Any other ideas?

ZK needs much more videoram

[Bosque]

More than the 384 megabytes that I have?

Maybe I'm just old, but that seems like an absurd amount to me.

[KingRaptor]

If VRAM is the problem try texture compression in SpringSettings if you haven't already.

[Bosque]

Tried that, no change. Thanks though.

384 Mb of vram is nothing. Also, integrated graphics, isn't (In other words, "Integrated Graphics" is an oxymoron (obviously there are a couple of exceptions, but yours is probably not one of them).
