It was ok just yesterday. I'm running ubuntu feisty with intel 945. Any ideas? Other opengl apps (glxgears ;p) work fine.

Awesome!
How did you mod WZ to look like this?
It looks really cool!
Maybe a little dark, but that could be fixed...

I didn't do anything and that's why this topic is posted in 'help' rather than 'showcase'  ;) I'd very much like the game to return to normal. Tried to delete .warzone/config, but that didn't help.

Looks nice. Fitting for one of those blue-modded cases.

Looks like somehow the red and green colour components are missing... Something must have changed between yesterday and today, else I'd say it's... erm... cosmic rays. Blue cosmic rays.

yeah, very likely Xorg upgrade, but I'm not sure. I'll try asking around ubuntu forums.

I'd guess it's a driver bug... You are not using the SVN version, I guess? And even then I don't think that someone changed the colors.

Looks like textures for a glow/bloom effect :)

No, but there should be. I want those neons.  :D

Imagine for the urban tileset lit streets to go with it too and headlights. It would be like a cool lit up city, albeit with major military stability issues.

I found out what caused the blue bug on my Intel 945GM. It's data/novideo.rpl (Or whatever that plays the file), atleast it was for me, after a lot of testing i saw some "flickering" while the first black screen with subtitles appeared, I simply removed the data/novideo.rpl file and the entry in data/Makefile.am and after that it all worked.

I put together a package without the file, it was made in a rush so it isn't very pretty, but it works. I'll make a new package soon which will be a little bit "prettier".

If you use the package you won't see any black screens with subtitles, you'll still see the stuff in the blue box though which sometimes appeared after the black screens.

If you still get the blue bug, move ~/.warzone2100 to somewhere else and/or try restarting your system.
The campaign 2 and 3 hotfix is also applied to that package.

http://furver.no-ip.org/~jocke/warzone/ ... s/2.0.7-3/

You can download and install warzone2100_2.0.7-3_i386.deb, or get the source-code from warzone2100_2.0.7-3.tar.gz.

Please test it and post the results here.

May the alpacas be with you!

  Edit:
  My friend TMM tested it with his Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03).
  Removing the novideo.rpl file seems to fix the problem for him as well.

  Something worth noting might also be that if you let the first black screen play untill it's done (with novideo.rpl ofcourse) and abort the second one made it work for me as well.
