Okay so i have installed under Linux, placed the BA mod in my mods folder, when i load up all units are grey, i cannot find any info on the spring site about OTA textures anymore.

Searched one of the download sites and found it, put it in my spring folder, units still grey, put them in my mod folder...units still grey.

What am i missing?

(I posted in Linux forum to no reply)

Cheers.

and the solution is in the sticky in the linux forum, it's a driver problem

Also i read that, i'm not a complete moron, i'm not using open source drivers.

you're asking for the ota textures, no mod uses them since years, they all ship them in the mod itself
EDIT: if you want to be sure, paste glxinfo here because all the people who had that bug had the same drivers

GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc
interesting, the drivers declares it supports it, but it's not functional
try another version of the driver, also open ~/.springrc and check if atihacks is =1

Yeah ATi hacks is set to 1, this is real odd.

Although that glx info says 10.4 but i have 10.6 installed, think that might be my issue as apparently 10.4 works and 10.6 doesn't?

Yes, as the original reply said, it's your drivers.

10.6 and 10.5 have issues with textures in spring (and quake 3 and probably others..).

Lots of people have had to downgrade to 10.4
