Mac users, where are you guys?

Beta 1 can be downloaded from the SVN repository:

Code: Select all

svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/warzone/tags/2.1_beta1

The lighting patch is attached. Run the following command in the beta 1 directory to apply it:

Code: Select all

patch -p0 < /path/to/beta1_lighting.diff

I think you forgot to attach the patch?

[twilight]

I think so, too

however: I svned beta1, I copied popt, so, I am ready to go as soon as I get the patch

That should not sound rude or something!! I apreciate your help with this very much!!

[Baum]

I guess that would be a problem . Sorry about that!

[twilight]

thx

I don't know why nothing happens. Under Linux when I patched the kernel or something,
I usualy get back to the prompt. Here nothing happens. The command stays active,
does not succeed nor abort and can only be interrupted by pressing ctrl-c

that is not what should have happend, right?

[Baum]

I think that's happened to me when I've run a new version for the first time. If you let it run for long enough (a few minutes), it might start the game.

[twilight]

I am not talking about the game, I am talking about the
patch-process...

Code: Select all

patch -p0 ../Desktop/beta1_lighting.diff

that command does not succeed nor error

[DevUrandom]

Code: Select all

patch -p0 ../Desktop/beta1_lighting.diff

You got it wrong.
The command you typed patches the file ...beta1_lighting.diff with input recieved on stdin.
That's obviously not what you want. You want this instead:

Code: Select all

patch -p0 < ../Desktop/beta1_lighting.diff

Which patches the current directory with input recieved from ../Desktop/beta1_lighting.diff

[twilight]

oops, seems I did not read well enough, sorry... will post the results asap!

[twilight]

result is here: beta1 with lighting-patch already has the texture-problem on tiger (10.4.11)

[Baum]

Alright, so the problem must have been introduced before the beta1 "head" revision (r3813). I tried to build r3800 of the beta1 tag but I'm having some linking problems and I'll have to try again later or with a different revision.

Hey guys,

this news brings hope, for you as developers, for us as testers:
http://news.worldofapple.com/archives/2 ... eed-notes/

Let's hope those "OpenGL-Fixes" are fixing our issues!

That would at least give you the majority of macusers back, that use Leopard.
For me, since I don't have the money, I have to stick to tiger and don't expect
them to fix OpenGL there

Greetings

Hmm.
They dropped support for tiger, since they released leopard? What kind of BS is that? :rolleyes:

Anyway, looks like Baum is narrowing down when these issues first appeared...

[twilight]

nope, they did not drop support for tiger! They still
have support for Panter, btw. This update is simply
a leopard-update (10.5.5), and I don't know of any Tiger-Updates.
But they might of course bring out a 10.4.12.

That does not mean, that changes of that kind are
ported back to tiger or panter. They might, they might not,
I don't know was just speculating!

Most programs (OpenGL) I use have no problems at all. For me it is just Blender.org
and Warzone. Everything else runs fine (even windows-games
with wine).

Well, but nice to hear, that the problem is been narrowed down!

[Baum]

I'm sorry to say that I haven't been able to do much more work on tracking down the revision that started the texture issue due to a lack of time so it would be appreciated if someone else could head this up. If not, I can still try to work on this sporadically but school and work might limit the amount of free time I have.

Also, Bertrand Coconnier, the developer of QuesoGLC, has been kind enough to incorporate a Leopard OS X bug fix (QuesoGLC bug #2012579) into the next release and needs somebody with Leopard to test out the release-0.7 branch (http://quesoglc.svn.sourceforge.net/vie ... z?view=tar).

To test this with Warzone, download the link above and extract the archive to the Warzone directory macosx/external/. The directory should be called 'quesoglc' (this directory will probably already exist if you've built Warzone previously so just overwrite it). Then, just build Warzone normally ('xcodebuild clean && xcodebuild') and make sure fonts are rendering correctly when running the game.

Thanks,
Tim

[twilight]

would do that immediatly, but I have no money left for leopard

and since snow-leopard seems to come in the very near future, I am not
going to buy leopard, anyway
