MegaGlest / Re: Fuzzy graphics

« on: 1 February 2014, 10:02:38 »

Check options -> video, this could be due to texture compression.

Texture compression is switched off, so that's not the problem.

Thanks for splitting this off BTW.

MegaGlest / Re: Fuzzy graphics

« on: 31 January 2014, 13:53:45 »

Vanilla Glest and GAE don't have the fuzzinees, so it must get caused by some code changes that were introduced sometime after the projects forked. I first registered here in April 2012 and the fuzziness was already there, so it must have happened some time before that.

MegaGlest / Fuzzy graphics

« on: 31 January 2014, 10:48:20 »

I think graphics is important insofar as the current graphics look fuzzy. It physically keeps me from playing, because I'm sensitive to this stuff.

MegaGlest / Re: Top 100 MegaGlest Players

« on: 20 January 2014, 09:07:04 »

I think an opt-in switch to add the player name like you suggested would solve the privacy issue neatly.

There are no nightly builds available at the moment, so you will have to wait for the next update or try to build it yourself.

MegaGlest / Re: Move repo to git?

« on: 27 November 2013, 19:26:34 »

We should also evaluate whether or not we need to continue having issue trackers on both forums and GitHub.

We could keep the bug reports forum so poeple who are uncertain if something is a bug or not can post there first, and if it has been confirmed open an issue on GitHub then

Closed bug reports / Re: [invalid] v3.9.0 fails to start with translation option set to an invalid value

« on: 22 November 2013, 10:29:17 »

Won't translators still need to set this to "true" or "false", depending on if their language is RTL or LTR?

Feature requests / Redesign techtree language options

« on: 20 November 2013, 18:22:42 »

I had trouble finding the options to use the language I selected in the general options for the megapack as well. Here's my suggestions:

• Introduce an option for the techtree translations next to the language choice option, so users can switch on translations by default for everything without having to search for it
• Default to this option for allowing translating techtrees when setting up a new game

Closed bug reports / Re: 3.9.0: Unable to use megapack translations

« on: 20 November 2013, 10:46:41 »

I overlooked the "allow translation" button. My bad. Please move this to feature requests, my request now is that this button is on by default for single-player games.

IMO this setting should also be available on the general options screen where the user sets the language, so the user can easily choose a default.

BTW "Air" is Gaelic for "On" and is also used in some grammatical constructions.

Closed bug reports / Re: 3.9.0: Unable to use megapack translations

« on: 20 November 2013, 09:21:41 »

Deleting the userdata fixed this for multiplayer. Singleplayer is still in English.

Closed bug reports / [invalid] 3.9.0: Unable to use megapack translations

« on: 19 November 2013, 10:36:51 »

When changing the interface language, expected behaviour would be that the megapack gets translated in singleplayer mode. It is not.

I then tested hosting a LAN multiplayer game and ticked the box to allow techtree translations. Again, the megapack is in English.

I tested in Scottish Gaelic where the translation is at 100%, but I haven't had time to review the strings for the megapack yet.

Marker icon for player state: well should we add some graphics here ? I know the "#" is very simple ( but works ;-D )

Here's an idea - you're welcome not to like.

b) alone means we have to go with your design. Thanks for explaining! Programming this sort of stuff in Unicode is tough.

MegaGlest / Re: menu layout and translations

« on: 24 October 2013, 13:21:48 »

I like it

I would cecommend putting the translation first and the English in () in your last screenshot. Is there a specific reason we need to display the folder names in the GUI anyway? Unless you're a programmer or modder, I don't think you would care about how Megaglest is programmed or what folder structure it has.

Why don't you file a bug report with SMF? This way everybody will benefit, not just us

My native screen resolution is 1366 x 768. Rare in a gamer forum, I know 

I still don' know what you would want with a hi res avatar though, since it would then either take up more space than the posts, or be downscaled anyway. SMF should redesign their error message though, I'm with you on that. That's nothing Omega can change though.

Closed bug reports / r4597M: SDL Error - X11 driver not configured with OpenGL on Ubuntu

« on: 6 October 2013, 12:49:29 »

Description
I downloaded trunk from SVN today and installed the dependencies and created a build according to the instructions on the Wiki.
Starting Megaglest produces the error message below.

I googled the error message and tried this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6731480, but I might have picked the wrong SDL version.

It might be clearer if you grey out the hold icon a bit. Some people might interpret it as the forum being locked though.

How about just the icon background for read forums?

A 1000x1000 avatar would also be bigger than my screen. What would you do with such a big image, since it wouldn't make any sense displaying it with its originial size anyway?
