MegaGlest / [Experts only] Windows development build of v3.6.1-dev+r3419

« on: 4 July 2012, 23:18:26 »

I've just created a test build of the latest development code: megaglest_win32_r3419_bin.7z.

Archive checksums:

• MD5 1ec55d544dc3a31d6aad403c6441fe0f
• SHA256 3553e714c34cac02240e535452c653f6261b5c8158d1f33053acb7b7d5249cfc

This 7-Zip archive contains only the executable files, no configuratio files such as glest.ini, glestkeys.ini and servers.ini, no installer, no debugging symbols, nothing automatic and no further instructions.

If you would like to use this build then you need to already know how to, since I cannot explain it in a way which will work for everybody. Basically the process is that you make a copy of your entire existing MegaGlest installation, then extract the contents of this archive into the copy of your MegaGlest directory, overwriting the existing files.

Another option which saves disk space is to unpack this archive to a new directory, rename all files so that they have a distinct name, such as megaglest.exe -> megaglest_r12345.exe (where 12345 is the new SVN revision) etc., then move them into your existing MegaGlest installation directory, next to the existing megaglest.exe etc.

If you would like to play a test game with this revision, please find me on IRC and let me know. Be aware though that because you only updated the game engine but not the game data, your old copy may have outdated data which can be incompatible with a complete copy of the current development code. This development build contains the (can I say awesome?) upcoming savegame feature, as well as code to point your team mates to a location on the map (bookmarks, accessible via the escape menu in-game) as well as building site indicators. It also fixes several bugs.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3412: MG crashes when there are no scenarios or tutorials

« on: 30 June 2012, 14:33:57 »

I gave the Republic vs Police State game a try yesterday (much fun! ). It doesn't come with any tutorials or scenarios. As such, when you enter these menus MegaGlest needs to handle this situation. Currently it doesn't seem to be able to cope with this. A workaround would be to hide these menus, but actually handling this situation would be nicer so that full conversions have more freedom there. I'm not providing log files at this time (please say so if they are still needed) since this should be fully reproducible.

Closed bug reports / [not a bug] r3412: One clients' game starts, but he cannot play

« on: 29 June 2012, 23:12:03 »

We had a weird situation today. Jammy was hosting r3412 on his Windows system today. Pizza and I joined as clients, all of us were on 3412 (Pizza and I were both on Linux). When the game started, everything looked normal. Pizza and Jammy were able to play just fine, just on my end any command I gave was not carried out, my units were just standing there ion their start positions, and on my screen, this was the same for the other players - nobody was moving at all. For Jammy and Pizza, however, the game took playce and on their screens all of us were playing - apparently my team was played by CPU, but there was no message indicating this. For them all of us lost the game because we were run over by CPU. For me, we were just all standing around and the CPU never attacked.

So I left this game and got to see a stats screen with all zeros. By the time I left, for the first time during this game, Jammy got some out of synch warnings/errors:

Unfortunately I have no idea how to reproduce this, but it clearly seems like a bug since during the entire time when I could not command my units, we were able to chat with each other just fone - so this was not a network issue.

MegaGlest / I want everything, for free, now!!!

« on: 29 June 2012, 03:14:26 »

I think its very long time since I got everything I longed for instantly and for free and its hard to make my life enjoyable this way.
But this has to recommence once and i think its time. What about just getting luxary food, accommodation and my own sauna for free for a test?
If you agree me vote "YES  " please

If I can get everything I ever dreamed of for free, instantly and without spending any of my own labor then maybe someone else could get that, too. (the other guy told me, I don't know if its right)

Feature requests / Please add support for distribution/download of network scenarios

« on: 19 June 2012, 21:05:47 »

Titi and I were trying to create a network scenario and test it. He was hosting and did not pass the scenario to me. I connected to his server and got a repeating on-screen message which matches the first error described on standard output/error. Then Titi started the game and I got more errors which are also contained in the terminal output:

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3401: Scenario validation filter broken?

« on: 19 June 2012, 19:18:49 »

I just tried to validate the "benchmark" scenario titi created for testing purposes:

Code: [Select]

tomreyn@atibox:~/SCM/megaglest-trunk$ mk/linux/megaglest --ini-path=mk/linux/ --data-path=mk/linux/ --validate-scenario=benchmark
 ====== Started Validation ======
 Filtering scenario: benchmark
 
 ---------------- Loading scenario inside world ----------------
 
 ====== Finished Validation ======
 tomreyn@atibox:~/SCM/megaglest-trunk$

This seems to have worked fine. However, I get the exact same output when specifying a scenario which does not actually exist:

Code: [Select]

tomreyn@atibox:~/SCM/megaglest-trunk$ mk/linux/megaglest --ini-path=mk/linux/ --data-path=mk/linux/ --validate-scenario=no_such_scenario
 ====== Started Validation ======
 Filtering scenario: no_such_scenario
 
 ---------------- Loading scenario inside world ----------------
 
 ====== Finished Validation ======
tomreyn@atibox:~/SCM/megaglest-trunk$

So I'm wondering whether validation actually took place (it is very fast, too). I also think there should be an error message or warning when the scenario filter did not match at least one existing scenario (and this improvement should be applied to the other validation types, too).

I also tried running the validation command without specifying a scenario filter, so just:

Code: [Select]

mk/linux/megaglest --ini-path=mk/linux/ --data-path=mk/linux/ --validate-scenario
This did actually seem to work, but the validation contained much more steps than expected: it iterated over all the techtrees, factions and units I have installed, whether or not they are part of any scenarios. Ideally, this test would skip validation of anything which is not a scenrio by itself. I.e., in my opinion, no unit nor structure nor audio file nor anything should be validated there in my opinion, just the scenario XML file and the Lua code embedded in (and possibly referenced by) it.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3365: Victor FTBFS in shared_lib/sources/graphics/video_player.cpp

« on: 28 May 2012, 12:50:59 »

I'm summing up VictorJ's efforts to create a full rebuild yesterday, which failed, due to build error (which doesn't seem to be due to errors on his end).

Here's his termnial output: http://megaglest.pzt.me/3910

In line 2 Victor shows that he's just changed into the correct build directory (uppermost directory of his subversion working copy).

He then runs a series of commands which are of no use in this context but should also not be harmful - sudo svn up may be bad (because of how it may set permissions) but it fails anyways due to DNS issues.

In line 313, Victor runs rm -r build/ and gets this in return rm: não foi possível remover "build/": Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado which translates to: rm: Cannot delete "build/": File or directory not found.. So the build/ directory is already deleted.

In line 314, he runs svn up and (this time at least) it exits with a revisão 3365. without error message. The output ^[[A^[N is probably caused by pressing cursor keys during runtime and can be ignored.

At this point he should be ready to do a full rebuild. In line 320, he starts building using ./build-mg.sh. Cmake looks happy and determines that libvls is available and will be used. Then make kicks in and runs into build errors on line 552.

This is a Kubuntu 11.10 system.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3365: Stats screen is all grey

« on: 27 May 2012, 21:57:30 »

Since about when the video support was added, a bug seems to have been introduced which causes the end of game stats screen to become all grey. There are no more visible statistics nor any text is readable, all you get to see is a grey background and the "Exit" buttton which is placed at the usual location (below where the stats would normally display).

Closed bug reports / [fixed] 3.6.0.3: Headless admin looses control when in unassigned slot

« on: 27 May 2012, 10:42:38 »

When you are controlling a headless server and are in a higher slot, say player 7, and change maps ending up with a four player map, then you are on an unassigned network slot and immediately loose control.

Correctly, the serer admin should not loose control just because she is on an unassigned slot.

I guess this won't be of use to a lot of people, but maybe to some, or it could be a useful basis for integration into other window managers, so here's how I configured the XFCE4 "Generic Monitor" plugin to list relevant MG servers on the XFCE panel when they become available. To me, relevant servers are those which:

• are not run by myself (since I will obviously know I'm running them already)
• have at least one other player on them
• are not full
• are in status "waiting for players"

I started out with a simple shell script which queries the master server and 'parses' its output and lists IP/port combinations, one per line. But it turned out the Generic Monitor plugin supports some pseudo XML format which can be used to do more than just text.

So I now have this script, stored at /home/user1/bin/megaglest-servers-xml (and made executable):

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh

myplayername=tomreyn
mginstallpath=$HOME/megaglest

# add this to the awk script to filter out own ip address:  && $5 != "'$(wget -qO- http://whatismyip.org/)'"
for ipport in ` wget -qO- http://master.megaglest.org/showServersForGlest.php | grep -Ev '^$' | awk -F'|' '$14 == 0 && $4 !~ /^(Headless: |'$myplayername')/ { print $5":"$12 }' `
do
  ip=`echo $ipport | cut -d: -f1`
  port=`echo $ipport | cut -d: -f2`
  # Get the second level domain name of the reverse, if any
  isp=`dig -x $ip +short | awk -F. '{print $(NF-2)"."$(NF-1) }'`
  # Generate output for http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-genmon-plugin
  printf '<txt>%s</txt>\n<img>%s/megaglest.ico</img>\n<tool>%s (%s:%s)</tool>\n<click>%s/start_megaglest --connecthost=%s --use-ports=%s,61357</click>\n\n' "$isp" "$mginstallpath" "$isp" "$ip" "$port" "$mginstallpath" "$ip" "$port"
done
if [ "$ipport"x = 'x' ]; then date '+%H:%M:%S'; fi

You will want to adjust myplayername and mginstallpath to match your preferences.

And then I have this Generic Monitor plugin configuration:

Code: [Select]

Command: /home/tomreyn/bin/megaglest-servers-xml
Label: [MG]
Interval: 300
Font: Sans 7

As a result, this thing checks for suitable servers every 5 minutes. If it finds none are currently available, it just notes down the time of the last check on the panel:

If, however, suitable servers are available, then it will draw an MG icon followed by the servers' partial hostname (second level domain name only):

And if you mouse over these, you'll get more information, namely the servers' IP address. And when you click an icon, MegaGlest is launched and automatically connects to the given server.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3339: MG fails to configure with cmake 2.8.8 (policy changes)

« on: 19 May 2012, 17:56:07 »

Jammy (forum username Jammyjamjamman) was trying to build MG on Fedora Core 16 today and ran into a cmake issue. He also had trouble getting his forum account validated so I'm reporting this for him.

He pasted his build-mg.sh output to paste.megaglest.org. The issue is triggered by non-compliance with a cmake policy which appears to be mandatory in the cmake version Jammy is using.

Code: [Select]

<tomreyn> Jam__: what's the output of: cmake --version
<Jam__> the latest
<Jam__> 2.8.8

Compiling statically, so with the -DWANT_STATIC_LIBS=ON build option is a workaround which works for him.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3339: Segfault on --validate-techtrees after "Finished Validation"

« on: 19 May 2012, 17:41:57 »

Running --validate-techtrees on the Annex beta3 05/09/12 development snapshot (which is currently not available to the public), I ended up with a segfault after the validation had apparently completed.

Here's the end of the output:

Closed bug reports / [fixed] 3.6.0.3: Text chat messages may be attributed to wrong player

« on: 19 May 2012, 11:44:23 »

Titi was hosting a game where he already had some players connected. Titi said "no downloads", then changed into another slot (which may or may not have been a network slot before he moved there). Very shortly after Titi switched slots, I connected to his server, ended up in Titi's old slot and said "yeay". What happened then is that what Titi said before, namely "no downloads" was reattributed to me, as if I had said it (but I had not, and I could not, since I was not fully connected when Titi wrote this).

I'm not sure whether this issue is still present in current development stage code, but I assume it is.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] 3.6.0.3: Quit messages are displayed in gameservers' language

« on: 19 May 2012, 11:32:37 »

We played a game with Rubicon (game language set to german), Cavavin (game language set to french), me (game language set to english) and some others. Cavavin was hosting, we played a while and Rubicon got disconnected. So my game which was set to english language displayed the following messages:

Code: [Select]

Cavavin: Player rubicon, disconnected from the game.
Cavavin: Joueur #3 [rubicon] s'est déconnecté, passage au mode IA !
First of all, these messages bear a bit of duplication: one of them (I guess the second) would probably be sufficient.

Moreover, I had expected to get to see both message in English language, since that's what my game is set to. Instead the first message correctly displays in English, but the second message is in French.

I'm not sure whether this is still an issue with the current development stage code (I think it probably is).

That's not a whole lot of info. ;-)

Do you think this will be better with 3.6.1? I guess the blame is on me, though, since even though i have ulimit -c unlimited in my start_megaglest script (which I did use to run the game), running ulimit -c on the same terminal window now returns 0 - I wonder why...

So this is more an experience than a bug report really.

MegaGlest / [Experts only] Windows develpoment build of v3.6.1-dev+r3330

« on: 17 May 2012, 13:56:29 »

I've just made a test build of the latest development code: megaglest_win32_r3330_bin.7z.

Archive checksums:

• MD5 10edd96f4597c65e5a97473dc3116b66
• SHA256 b19845e7f7964956ec5449640b187c4eebdb5f322ccc6cdadc2d7e03012fc9cf

This 7-zip archive contains only the executable files, no glest.ini nor glestkeys.ini, no installer, no debugging symbols, nothing automatic and no further instructions.

If you would like to use them you need to already know how, since I cannot explain it in a way which will work for everybody. Basically the process is that you make a copy of your entire existing MegaGlest installation, then extract the contents of this archive into the copy of your MegaGlest directory, overwriting the existing files.

Another option which saves disk space is to unpack this archive to a new directory, rename all files so that they have a distinct name, such as megaglest.exe -> megaglest_r12345.exe (where 12345 is the new SVN revision) etc., then move them into your existing MegaGlest installation directory, next to the existing megaglest.exe etc.

If you would like to play a test game with this revision, please let me know. This development build contains an early version of the (can I say awesome?) upcoming savegame feature. It also fixes several bugs.

MegaGlest / Master server + website outage: May 22nd 21:00 UTC to May 23rd 07:00 UTC

« on: 16 May 2012, 20:08:17 »

Hi,

we've received the following announcement from our hosting provider today:

Unfortunately I need to announce another outage which will take place during the night from May 22nd to 23rd (Tue to Wed in the coming week). This outage is due to a physical relocation of the server hardware to a new colocation site in Falkenstein (Thuringa) in Germany. The outage will start at 22:00 local time (21:00 UTC) and last up to 08:00 local time (07:00 UTC). The outage may last considerably shorter and may already end in the early nighttime, but this depends on how streamlined the relocation process will be.

So... sorry for ths upcoming outage. This affects availability of master server, megaglest.org website as well as the Game Mods menu. The server doesn't get moved too often ;-) so I guess this longer outage is fine, after all it's an in-advance notification. We'll see how it turns out.

Thanks for flying MegaGlest ornithopters,

Tom

Closed bug reports / [invalid] 3.6.0.3: Segfault on headless server summoner

« on: 13 May 2012, 14:33:29 »

Headless server 'summoner' segfaulted two days ago. Since it's running MegaGlest 3.6.0.3 this issue may already be fixed. Nevertheless, to enable us to rule out issues before the next release, I'll post all information which is available:

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r3303: Savegames: Missing tileset causes unhandled segfault

« on: 11 May 2012, 09:46:56 »

Today I gave savegames another try. The game now handles the situation where a map or a techtree is missing (a situation you may well run into when sharing savegames between players) graciously, displaying a message box without crashing. That's pretty nice from a user perspective.

This does not yet work for missing tilesets, though. If a tileset given in a savegame is not available, the game will segfault immediately. Its own segfault handler doesn't get started in this case.

My dev_rungame script runs 'megaglest' (the binary) without further arguments, then, if the game crashes with a core file, it runs gdb -q -n -ex "thread apply all bt full" -batch megaglest core, i.e. a full thread backtrace. The output below is cut off, please find the entire output here.

Please have a look at the second line of the output, too:
megaglest: /home/tomreyn/SCM/megaglest-trunk/source/shared_lib/sources/util/randomgen.cpp:51: int Shared::Util::RandomGen::randRange(int, int): Assertion `min<=max' failed.
This also looks wrong to me and may or may not be related.

Looks like MuwuM ran into this, too:
