Closed feature requests / [Done] Techtree validator: Report error when total # factions = 0

« on: 30 September 2013, 21:25:42 »

It would be nice if the techtree validator were to report an error when there are no factions in a given techtree.

Currently it produces the following output in this case:

Code: [Select]

$ ./megaglest --validate-techtrees=vbros_pack_1
====== Started Validation ======
Filtering techtrees and only looking for the following:

Closed bug reports / [dupe] r4558: Same platform (Linux x86_64) Out-of-Synch

« on: 21 September 2013, 03:44:15 »

We had two same-platform OOS on r4558 today. I was hosting both.

Game #1
In the first game, the clients were Filux, Lyra and Jammy (who also discussed this game here). Filux went OOS. I collected and uploaded all players debugCRCWorld log files (15 MB).

While comparing Filux's and my client logs of the first game, I noticed that his contains words in Polish. I assume this should not be the case, since it complicated log analysis. His language was set to Polish, techtree translation was disabled.

Game #2
For the second game, Filux switched his language to English. As such, all of us were using the English language.

In the second game (which Filux and I also discussed here), the clients were Filux and Lyra. This time Lyra went OOS. I collected and uploaded all players debugCRCWorld log files (21 MB).

Lyra later noticed that she had high latencies (1s ping to google.com) a while after the game, and wondered whether this may also have been the case during this game, and whether it could have triggered her OOS. We did, however, not receive any lag warnings before she went OOS.

Bug reports / r4558: Server SegF while/after gathering CRC error logs, after client timeout

« on: 21 September 2013, 03:04:11 »

With the 20 frames interval CRC checksumming, on an all Linux-64 bit game, we had Lyra run into a CRC mismatch (discussed separately). So she got disconnected, but there was a ~1 minute interval between her running into the CRC mismatch, and her actually getting disconnected (as reported on the host). In the meantime the game freezed for roughly 20 seconds (lasted until the disconnect). Probably prompted by this freeze, the other client, Filux, got a lag warning message as soon as the server was working again. Three seconds later, the server (I was running) went into the following:

Bug reports / r4558: Observing CPU

« on: 21 September 2013, 01:59:11 »

There's a bug where you can make a CPU an observer. I consider this a bug since I don't think this configuration makes much sense.

To reproduce:

• Setup a custom game
• Activate advanced options
• Allow observers
• Open a network slot
• Set this network slot to *Observer*
• Set this slot to a CPU player

This CPU player is now an *Observer*.

Mods / Mod translation

« on: 17 September 2013, 15:57:56 »

At this time both techtrees and scenarios can be translated for use with MegaGlest 3.8.0 and later.

To make the translation process more convenient for translators, we've added two semi-official projects to Transifex where we take mod developers' and translators' requests to add new open source mods for translation. Currently these semi-official projects are managed by Filux and me, but we're looking for more support from people who have a general idea of how Transifex works or are happy to find out.

Techtrees

The semi-official project for translation of MegaGlest techtrees which are not part of the standard MegaGlest distribution lives at:
https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/megaglest-mods-techtrees/

Initial documentation (please help improvind it) is available at:
http://wiki.megaglest.org/Translations/Unofficial_Techtree_Translations

Techtrees can also be translated outside of Transifex, but be aware that this raises the bar for translators.
Manual mod translation is discussed at:
http://wiki.megaglest.org/Translations/Techtrees#Manual_translation

Scenarios

The semi-official project for translation of MegaGlest sceanrios which are not part of the standard MegaGlest distribution lives at:
https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/megaglest-mods-scenarios/

Documentation for scenario translation is not currently available, but you can take a look at the file structure used by the sceanarios included in the standard MegaGlest distribution which are already translated, such as the "Amazones" scenario.

The game keeps working there, but I think this error should be fixed nonetheless. It's an old bug, I've run into it before but it doesn't seem to have been reported, yet (I guess I forgot).

Closed bug reports / [fixed] 3.8.0-beta1: SegF in type_instances/unit.cpp:2466

« on: 3 September 2013, 19:47:04 »

I was a client (standard 3.8.0 beta1) on a game filux hosted on his (patched/modified) SVN build, and while the game continued for Filux and Nig (a Windows client), I ran into a SegF:

MegaGlest / Your personal home server, which also runs a MegaGlest game server...

« on: 2 September 2013, 18:46:04 »

As you know, one of the issues with broader adoption of MegaGlest is the lack of always-on / dedicated / headless servers. This is what made me play some mind games (and this is really all this is about, not a serious offer now or any time in the foreseeable future) about shipping pre-installed mini home servers to people with a reliable Internet connection who are willing to host network games.

Obviously someone would have to pay for (at least) the hardware there. Since the total donations MegaGlest received so far alot to 0.7 bitcoins + 8 USD those are not going to pay for it. So the other option is to provide added value by means of software running on such a home server (in addition to a MegaGlest server) and possibly simple remotely hosted services, convincing people to want such a gadget for their homes.

However, even then the price tag for the plain hardware (incl. enclosure) is still at ~100 USD incl. shipping. So I'm wondering which added features it would take for you to buy such a device.

Just to give you an idea what such a device could look like (and what size it is - what you see on the left are LAN and USB connectors):

Bug reports / 3.8.0 beta1: SegF on Linux host

« on: 28 August 2013, 23:13:47 »

I was hosting on 3.8.0 beta1 on atibox today, with several clients connected (both Linux and Windows). Sometime during the last quarter of the game the following happened on the host (I do not know what actually caused/triggered it):

Sadly the last line is misleading since I had an old core file there and a new one was not created. Nor was a DMP file.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] 3.8.0-beta1: Checksum mismatches still ocurring

« on: 7 August 2013, 19:32:42 »

Filux was hosting today, with a newer version of the Prax mod. After modifying it he increased the mods' version number, so that it is actually handled like a new mod.

So he was hosting on Linux with this "new mod" and Atze and I (both Linux) connected to him and downloaded it. Both Atze and I got a "techtree different" warning for the techtrees' single "Natulka" faction right after downloading. Then Atze and I disconnected and reconnected, but the warning remained.

Then Atze and I restarted our clients and reconnected, but the warning remained.

Then Filux restarted the server and Atze and I reconnected, but the warning remained. Interestingly this time, and before the Prax warning, I also got a warning about differences in the Aqua Pack techtree (probably the first in the list) which was not currently set (see screenshot). Also both warnings are about the Natulka faction which is not present in Aqua Pack.

Then all of us cleared ~/.megaglest/cache/ and restarted server and clients and reconnected, and only then the warning was gone.

So there still seems to be a difficult to find bug there somewhere.

Screenshot of when Atze and I reconnected after Filux restarted the server (cache yet untouched):

Bug reports / 3.8.0 beta1: Server SegF due to unclean client timeout / disconnect?

« on: 7 July 2013, 14:48:45 »

Today I was hosting a Prax (prax_0.5.4.1) game, the only client was Nevsky (who sadly has underpowered hardware). We were playing a (possibly too large) 128x128 map game against two CPU Ultra 2.0 with plenty of units on both sides. After playing for some 60 minutes (roughly) the game was close to coming to a (regular) end: we had just defeated the first CPU opponent and had almost defeated the second, too.

However, at this very moment, Nevsky ran into a situation which he described as "connection error or something" (and no error.log was written on his end, the one he had had an old timestamp) and I ran into a segmentation fault with the following output on screen and on command line:

Also worth mentioning here seem the fact that no DMP file was created by this "official" build (the beta release). Is this because it is not linked against google breakpad or because of some other issue?

Feature requests / [done] Replace question marks in localization keys

« on: 24 June 2013, 11:44:50 »

Some INI parsers seem to consider ? to be an invalid character in keys (left side of equals character), so I think it would be better to omit or replace it by Prompt, Question, Query, Q, or similar.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r4501: Headless: "Translated techtrees" tickbox cannot be ticked by admin

« on: 23 June 2013, 00:13:00 »

On a headless server, the controlling player (admin), like all other players, is unable to tick the "Translated techtrees" option. As such, it cannot currently be used on headless servers.

Closed bug reports / [Fixed] r4497: Checksum cache not refreshed when mod moved to global

« on: 22 June 2013, 21:10:49 »

The Desert4 tileset was recently moved from OS user specific UserData_Root to the global storage location. However, doing this seems to change the checksum (why?), and the old checksum was not removed.

We were able to verify this as follows:

Yesterday when I started MegaGlest, the Desert4 tileset I had in UserData_Root was automatically renamed to desert4_custom.

Test 1:
I was hosting a game with Desert4 set, Titi and two of his sons were connected to my server. The server reported that Titi's tileset did not match, however, for his two sons, there was no such message (i.e. same tileset as the server). Titi then cleared out his checksum cache, restarted MegaGlest and reconnected to the server, but the message was repeated - according to the server he still had a different tileset. He restarted MG and connected to the server again with the same effect.

Titi said he did not modify his copy of the tileset. We checked the XML files' MD5 and they matched between Titi's computer and the server.

Test 2:
So this time I deleted my checksum cache, restarted MG and hosted the same game again, and all the players from the last game connected to my server again. This time, Titi's two sons' clients reported a tileset mismatch on Desert4, while none was reported for Titi.

So it would seem that checksums need to be recalculated when a mod (or maybe just a tileset?) is moved from system user to global system scope.

Closed bug reports / [invalid] r4476: SegF when disk full while writing savegame

« on: 21 June 2013, 11:46:47 »

When the filesystem where MG tries to create a savegame has run full, MG will run into a segmentation fault. It would be nicer to handle this situation gracefully (display a message box).

Ideally the same should happen for other file output operations (logfiles) where it doesn't impact performance (I assume it does not since it should be sufficient to handle the error when it occurs, i.e. there should be no need to check whether the next packet will writable before it is actually written).


Update:

To ease testing, this should also be reproducible when pointing --data-dir or UserData_Root to a location which is readable but not writable, such as a small filesystem created on a partitioned (e.g. using GNU parted + partprobe) USB key using, e.g.:

Code: [Select]

sudo mkfs.ext4 -L MegaGlest /dev/DEVICENAME
sudo mount -o users /dev/DEVICENAME /mnt/
# now copy files to /mnt/ as needed, then make it read-only ro prepare for testing
mount --remount,ro /mnt/
Or, possibly even easier, use a loop device, see the example in losetup(8) (no need for encryption, though).

Note that my game was (accidentially) set to selectbuf, which doesn't actually work on this system. Still I don't think it should be crashing. VBO support should be implemented on this r300 driver by now, though.

MegaGlest / Graphics performance just (r4474) increased by 66%

« on: 20 June 2013, 09:50:10 »

Thanks to the work of Softcoder, Will, JohnDH and Silnarm (listed in reverse chronological order ), r4474 renders faster by a magnitude of two thirds (+66%) compared to 3.7.1.

We will yet need to verify that this happens without loosing anything important regarding unit, structure and tileset animations, but during initial tests I could not observe any such issues.

So this seems to be a major achievement, especially for us users plagued with slow graphics performance (due to slow graphics hardware).

Quoting my updated table from this thread, running the "benchmark" scenario using...

Code: [Select]

./megaglest --load-scenario=benchmark --fullscreen=true
...and unmodified INIs on my atibox (specs below):

Game version	UpdateFPS	RenderFPS
3.7.1	40	30
r4409	39	29
r4414	39	30
r4430	39	30
r4470	40	30
r4474	40	49

Sadly this doesn't make a difference for intelbox:

Game version	UpdateFPS	RenderFPS
3.5.0	39	18
3.5.2	40	17
3.6.0.3	39	18
3.7.1	40	18
r4362	39	19
r4470	39	19
r4474	40	19

My configuration files on these systems are the same with a single exception, based on --show-ini-settings output: intelbox uses the selectbuf selection mode, while atibox uses color picking.
Switching intelbox to color picking makes no difference to selectbuf on this system running r4474.
Switching atibox to selectbuf (which breaks unit selection there) makes quite the difference on this system running r4474: UpdateFPS 40, RenderFPS: 29.

So apparently whether the recent improvements are noticeable to you is very much a matter of which hardware and driver you are using, as well as your choice of the selection method.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r4462: SegF after timeout

« on: 18 June 2013, 21:50:27 »

Tonight we played a 3 player game on Atze's server with Prax. Pizza90 (Windows 7-64) and I (atibox) were clients.

During heavy fighting I received a message saying "timeout waiting for server" in the game console. Then the game continued for about 5 seconds (where I could give orders), and I got the "Connection lost to server" (or similar) message box which usually follows up on the earlier message. Once I confirmed this second message, MegaGlest went into a segmentation fault.

Mandate Engine / Compiling on Linux (2bdc01f)

« on: 18 June 2013, 19:53:09 »

Based on this post I assume you'd like someone to try compiling Mandate on Linux and to report back on it. So I tried to compile it on my atibox (see below for specifications).

I prepared as follows:

Code: [Select]

cd /home/tomreyn/SCM/mandate
git pull

... made sure I hav the latest code

Code: [Select]

$ git show -s --format=%H
2bdc01fd50caf7f602285760d03e44d286fac9cb

... and built

Code: [Select]

rm -rf build; mkdir build; cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX='' ..
make -j4

cmake returned this:
http://paste.debian.net/11170/

make returned this:
http://pastebin.com/hPhNx3sa

Closed bug reports / [invalid] r4400: Techtree vallidator duplicates false positives?

« on: 9 June 2013, 04:29:31 »

The techtree validator currently outputs the following for Megapack:

Duplicates 28.59 MB (373) in files

However, it is my understanding that Titi thinks these files are actually needed. As such (and if this is so), these seem to be false reports and the deduplication mechanism of the techtree validator needs to be adjusted.

Closed bug reports / [fixed] r4394: client_interface.cpp::updateLobby Unexpected network message: 15

« on: 6 June 2013, 23:58:10 »

While trying to connect to Atze's server (with rejoin enabled) I ran into this message:

Code: [Select]

[2013-06-07 01:31:48] *ERROR* In [network_interface.cpp::DisplayErrorMessage Line: 143] sErr [client_interface.cpp::updateLobby Unexpected network message: 15]
It was also displayed on screen. The connection to the server was reset and I ended up on the server list again.

A second attempt to connect succeeded, so I'm not sure how to reproduce this, also because I do not know what this code (15) stands for.

Possibly related, I keep having trouble connecting to my in-progress game on localhost occasionally. This seem to be influenced by whether or not the this game is listed on the masterserver and how fast I try to connect. Trying to connect early when the game has just started usually results in a timeout of the client while connecting to the server lobby.

Feature requests / Display performance warning on first startup if low FPS

« on: 5 June 2013, 08:10:57 »

When the game loads the main menu for the first time, and after displaying it for 3 seconds, RenderFPS is <= 55, it should display a warning message indicating that the combination of hardware and software the game is running on may be insufficient and which counter measures are available. It should also offer to set some defaults which are known to improve performance. It should also point out that this message is displayed only once and achieve this by setting an option in glestuser.ini.

Example message:

Experience warning
The environment (hardware, drivers, operating system, configuration of all of these) MegaGlest operates in may not provide sufficient performance to allow you to fully enjoy the game. Read more about this at http://faq.megaglest.org/.
It is recommended that you configure MegaGlest to a low performance profile. Would you like this done?

[OK]    [Cancel]

If this is confirmed, another message indicating that a restart is necessary should be displayed.

Restart needed
The low performance profile has been configured.

You should now restart MegaGlest to apply these changes.

[OK]

Maybe the FirstTime INI setting which is currently set to false in glest.ini (not sure why we did this) can be reused here.

If the first prompt is confirmed, the following options should be set in glestuser.ini:

Code: [Select]

AnimatedTilesetObjects=50
EnableVideos=0
Filter=Bilinear
FilterMaxAnisotropy=1
FogOfWarSmoothing=false
FogOfWarSmoothingFrameSkip=5
MaxLights=4
No2DMouseRendering=1
RainEffect=0
Shadows=Disabled
ShadowTextureSize=256
Textures3D=false
TilesetParticles=false
UnitParticles=false
