I've mentioned here that when I tried to download and run 2.1 Beta 5 on my laptop(Windows Vista Home Premium, Core 2 Duo T7300 @ 2 GHz, 2 GB RAM), , it would:
-Not show any text in any of the menus.
-The buttons would still work(though invisible), but the game would freeze if I tried to start a campaign.
The screenshots are on the linked page.
I also tried downloading and running Trunk r6224. It suffered from the same problems. I tried running both Beta 5 and Trunk r6224 on my older WinXP desktop, and they did show the text in the menus, but CTDd instead of freezing when I started a game. I'm using non-debug Windows installers, though I did try a debug installer for Beta 5 which didn't help. I tried downloading the FMV sequences, but that didn't help either.
Beta 5 generates a blank stderr file, but the Trunk build did generate this:
Code: Select all
error |000000000000: [screenInitialise] Radar will not be displayed without support for texture rectangle extension!
error |000000003011: [seq_Play] unable to open 'sequences/cam1/c001.ogg' for playback

error |000000003014: [rebuildSearchPath] Failed to remove path C:\Program Files/share/warzone2100/\ again
I have 2.0.10, 2.1 Beta 5 and Trunk r6224 all installed. 2.0.10 works perfectly. The others are useless.
