Crash

Post by talis »

Hi,
I'm not really sure if this is the right forum to post this, but I'll try.
I downloaded vegastrike-linux-0.5.0.tar.bz2, unpacked and installed it. When I launch it I get the main menu, select "campagin", wait for the game to load and get in some kind of a hangar. I can move mouse around almost everywhere, but when the cursor gets in a (pretty big) area in bottom-left corner of the screen the game crashes.
This is what it says in the terminal:

Code: Select all

vegastrike: brw_draw_upload.c:410: brw_prepare_vertices: Assertion `input->offset < input->bo->size' failed.
Ubuntu 10.04. The reason why I used the tar.bz2 archive instead of Ubuntu repositories is that there are packages for vegastrike-data and vegastrike-music, but no main package.
If you'll need more information - please, tell me. Thank you.

I think it's a bug in OpenGL state management that got fixed in SVN.

You could try using SVN HEAD.

That, or the version of the engine you're using (0.5.0) doesn't match the data you downloaded from ubuntu's repo.

Thank you for the reply.

I did not use data from Ubuntu repositories. It's a clean install.
How do I use the SVN HEAD? Is this a development-state slice or something?

Thanks.
