On starting with 800x600 the widgets seem too large and half the drop down button gets cut off. When changing to it in the options menu it's good though. This started to occur when I merged the master changes to the dedicated_server branch.

General discussion / Re: CMake not finding Freetype error

« on: 29 February 2012, 19:13:03 »

Perhaps there's a CMake version difference. I have 2.8.2.

In my FindFreetype.cmake, FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS is at line 92 instead of 83 and before that it has code to set FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS. This could be missing in your version?

Code: [Select]

# set the user variables
IF(FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_ft2build AND FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_freetype2)
  SET(FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS "${FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_ft2build};${FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_freetype2}")
ENDIF(FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_ft2build AND FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_freetype2)
SET(FREETYPE_LIBRARIES "${FREETYPE_LIBRARY}")

Where and what is the exact error?

Freetype includes are already set in CMakeLists.txt:

Code: [Select]

set(ENV{FREETYPE_DIR} ${GAE_WINDEPS})
find_package(Freetype REQUIRED)

Bug reports / Re: 5de8487: SIGSEGV in Glest::ProtoTypes::MusicPlaylistType::getNextTrack

« on: 25 February 2012, 08:13:42 »

I refactored SoundRenderer which I think fixed one or more logic errors but more work is needed so I've created the branch 'origin/musicplayer', if someone else wants to continue working on it, and reverted the existing commits. (commit a4861798c610..)

Thanks Tomreyn. I've pushed a fix (commit f7c89b950d42..). The no tracks case needed to be handled. I'm not sure why it only occurred on the second game though

Bug reports / Re: 5de8487: SIGSEGV in Shared::Util::Random::randRange(int, int)

« on: 19 February 2012, 03:32:09 »

I'm fairly sure this is related to the other bug you posted. randRange(int, int) gets called with (0,-1) because no tracks exist.

General discussion / Re: Graphic mouse pointer very slow in Windows

« on: 18 February 2012, 08:03:33 »

The mouse should really be rendered in a separate thread so it doesn't get affected by any lag (unless there's another way to guarentee render time). Until then I've added an ini option to choose which mouse cursor type to use. The valid choices for RenderMouseCursorType are: ImageSetMouseCursor (default, uses images), CodeMouseCursor (hardcoded representation), OSMouseCursor. (commit 5de8487313..)

e.g. RenderMouseCursorType=OSMouseCursor

« on: 18 February 2012, 06:11:34 »

I've pushed Bloodwurm's patches to sourceforge (commits 854041.., 3118a87..) . I haven't properly tested it but it doesn't seem to break existing functionality. I've modified SoundPlayerOpenAL (for Linux) so that it matches the changes in SoundPlayer (commit 56156ac..) so it will compile but probably won't be available on Linux without more work.

This appears to be the xml (will need clarification):

Code: [Select]

In tech tree xml:
<music-play-list enabled="true|false" randomize="true|false" loop="true|false" activation-type="add|replace" activation-mode="wait|interrupt">
	<!-- must not be empty if enabled -->
	<music-file path="" />
</music-play-list>

In unit xml:
<music-play-list enabled="true|false" randomize="true|false" loop="true|false" activation-type="add|replace" activation-mode="wait|interrupt" activation-time="build|created">
	<!-- must not be empty if enabled -->
	<music-file path="" />
</music-play-list>

In faction xml:
<subfactions>
	<subfaction name="">
		<music-play-list enabled="true|false" randomize="true|false" loop="true|false" activation-type="add|replace" activation-mode="wait|interrupt">
			<!-- must not be empty if enabled -->
			<music-file path="" />
		</music-play-list>

General discussion / Re: Having trouble with auto-attack (GAE XML)

« on: 12 February 2012, 02:00:41 »

Hi Kiko. GAE_USE_PHYSFS option was removed as a CMake option since it is now a required dependency. I've updated the Windows compile guide to reflect this.

Quote

Edit: I discovered just now that the XML parser library isn't included in the download from GIT, nor is it in the base package.

GAE uses TinyXML for parsing xml which is included in shared_lib. You might be seeing the missing LibXml2 dependency for the glexemel tool. This isn't necessary to compile or play the game.

I've been through the Windows compile guide step by step and it works fine with only the above mentioned changes. Shaders seem to be enabled by default in latest which might cause problems with older graphics hardware (try disable it in glestadv.ini with 'RenderUseShaders=false').

Our target audience is modders though. I'm happy with what we have but if you were to create a promotional website, it would need to reflect that GAE is aimed at developers and take responsibility for maintaining the website. For an example look at the Unreal Engine website.

I agree with Omega and Wciow. People could do their personal top 5 or 10 favorites and why instead (like mini reviews). This would give community recognition without the problems of consensus.

For example, there could be a Mr War's Top 5 Mods of 2011.
