Spring RTS Engine

Can't wait to see this working as a game :D

The buildings look incredible and the UI (although not implemented) also looks amazing, keep the the good work...ps me for testing :D

Get yourself a game forum setup?

Where would one find it? I don't see a thread with up-to-date links?

The point at hand was threefold: 1: Statistics we DO have that are meticulous, do not show a substantial rise in the lobby playerbase that isn't already accounted for by natural yearly progression and the maturity of the engine 2: Efforts to spread word of the engine are good in intention, but harm...

Fixes like that happen all the time on Linux, many people know about them but they cannot be shipped officially with the drivers/games/applications etc because of the patent issues.

I'm just lucky that the recent official ati drivers now work properly with spring for me.

Looks good, when's the next release due?

Since the repo was updated in the last few days spring lobby can no longer find unitsync so i can't play online, can anyone else confirm this?

Has the file moved?

What distro are you using?

So basically i was right, cheers

Well if spring is wanting to load an otf font and he doesn't have it...it's still going to give the error isn't it...common sense.

Apart from having to compile it we mean. The repo isn't updating.

I never compiled before.

Erm...great? Never said anything about you doing so.

Re-read my post, i'm asking where to get it without compiling....

With 0.82.5.1 and with 0.82.4 "Test the Game" selected from the Spring menu fails ("Fatal Error Not a script"). With 0.82.5 it is OK.

Also MetalMaker widgets are not working for me.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.1 x64.

Where did you get the .1 release on Ubuntu?

Just did.

Sorry choice of wording poor, i know about OpenGL being a bit buggy on ATI i meant that it's just another issue.

Didn't mean to say it was springs fault.

But at least for people getting the crashes i have found out exactly what causes it.

I posted this in a few threads but need to let people know.

Try disabling AA, it worked for me and 1 other, think it could be another Spring specific ATI bug.

Just a note if the game won't load up for you...

DISABLE AA

It what's causing it.

Glad it worked for you, really needs a sticky thread to tell ATI users to turn off AA (why that doesn't work is beyond me).

I also have the weird green circle problem, but only on the minimap.

Any ETA on update for Ubuntu? (I realise it won't be done within an hour, just asking for an estimate :)).

Good job on frequent fixes :D

Try turning off AA, that's what made mine crash!
