Release: Spring 84.0! The DragonSlayer!

[jamerlan]

I can't start game on my laptop with intel integrated video. I see loading screen and then it closes and nothing happened. Here is my infolog for zero-k: http://pastebin.com/22r0FdEW

[f=0005006] Error: Exception: Access violation (0xc0000005)

most likely a driver problem. also looks like a strange driver to me. try different versions.

edit:
... and of course try playing with gfx related settings in spring.

edit: I think I see the problem, the springlobby package in lucid has the wrong depend

I uploaded a package that I hope fixes the depend on lucid, but it probably wont go live for 6 hours.

A massive thanks det. You star for getting onto that so quickly! For a moment I thought I might want to edit a dependency :)

As for what's happened I've just upgraded Spring and Springlobby to ppa2 successfully. All seems well so I'll give the multiplayer a run out tonight. Will report any problems. Assume it works!

[Beherith]

Thanks for all the hard work, devs! This release is very nice!

[Enjinn]

Just tried multiplayer and had to repoint my unitsynclibrary to

/usr/lib/spring/libunitsync.so

Suspect that was a move from spring-engine to spring package? Other than that works a treat.

Did I say thanks? Good, thanks.

I have the same issue as zoggop, 0.83 worked fine on my 2011 macbook pro running 10.6 (except for the weird black square graphic errors, http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=65&t=26996), but 0.84 gets as far as radar on the loading screen and crashes.

infolog.txt here: http://pastebin.com/4EkKuDBR

Any ideas?

try setting LoadingMT=0 in .springrc

[Bosque]

Yeah, that works now, thanks!

That disabled multi-threading I assume, so the MT build is broken? The black square graphic errors are still present. Any idea how to fix that?

[Jools]

Try adding following line to springsettings.cfg:

Code: Select all

AdvMapShading = 0

This disables advanced map shading, so things like specular maps and detail textures won't work.

Any idea if there's a fix coming up? Because those worked for me before spring 83.0.

[jK]

Yeah, that works now, thanks!

LoadingMT has nothing to with the MT build of spring. It's what the name says: a multi-threaded loadingscreen.

PS: I need someone with compiling abilities & macosx in #sy to the debug the cause of the crash.

[Jools]

Discovery: UnitDefs.isTransport doesn't seem to exist anymore in new spring. Instead I think you can use the UnitDefs.transportCapacity tag to achieve same effect.

[Bosque]

Jools: That works! Thank you.

[Jools]

Also a piece of advice: if you have a customised selectkeys.txt file in your spring folder, back it up before upgrading, because mine was replaced with a default one.

I can't see the map or units at all on my laptop (intel gfx card). Loading screen comes up, loads quite normally, but then I get UI elements displayed (they're shown buggily too) on top of the loadingscreen image. I can give orders just fine, by clicking and typing stuff, I just can't see anything of it happening. Sounds work fine too. Happens with any game I try.

Yet there's raelly no error message about it in infolog.
