Title: Battlescape is completely FUBAR
Post by: ko5tik on August 11, 2012, 10:55:52 pm

Hi  all,

Somehow battlescape went FUBAR.  I'm using current  maps ( downloaded from official location ) and current sources ( HEAD ) .  I verfifyed it on 2 boxes ( desktop with current sources,  and  laptop with state from 2.8 ).  No visible problem in logs,   just black screen or some garbled  images ( and slow )  I'm attaching savegame in question (  try terror mission  to repoduce )

Additional information:

Linux debian 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sun May 6 05:12:07 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux




BTW,  is there a key  to kill  battlescape on the spot?

yes, but you said it's black - and did you try to disable the completely to get a screen at all?

OK, disabling shaders on helps on laptop with sources from  2.8  can not check right now on desktop -
it is recompiling maps.

You can download latest precompiled maps with script contrib/map-get/update.py

Confirming same problem in Oct 24th 2.5 on Windows 7. Shaders worked fine in 2.4.

Is this a temporary bug or are shaders getting removed or no longer supported on some systems?

Here's the logs after I just tried using shaders. I get either a black screen, or a black screen that flickers to the loading image or a garbled UI. The game hangs without fully crashing and actually locks up the system unless it's fullscreen. When it's fullscreen alt-tabbing out works and it can be manually closed.
