[not a bug] MG 3.5.3 beta1 - map preview disables chat
« on: 6 November 2011, 18:15:01 »
Hi

If I enable map preview it works (good work, it was buggy in previous version, at least for me). Problem is that it disables ability to see chat messages. I can't even see <<Press Enter to chat>>. In console window I see one message appearing constantly as if it was in an infinite loop. It says:
Code: [Select]
[..\..\source\shared_lib\sources\graphics\gl\font_textFTGL.cpp::Shared::Graphics::Gl::TextFTGL::Render] Line 243 Error = 1286 [(null)] for text [>> Naciśnij enter by czatować <<] (between >><< text is in polish and means "Press enter to chat").
However If I press Enter I can write a message and send it and others will see it. If I disable map preview everything is ok, but, of course, there is no map preview.

Trees as sticks still apear in the same tilesets. I did not change my graphic card drivers yet.

My PC specs:
Core 2 Duo @1.83GHz
RAM 4GB (2,87GB usable)
ATI Mobility Radeon X1700
OS: Win7 Pro x64
Graphic drivers from Windows Update. Fail on some OpenGL apps.

Your video driver is buggy. It reports it can do frame buffer OBjects but when used it gives an error. The next beta will include an optional ini setting:

LegacyMapPreviewRendering=true

which should likely solve the map preview issue for you.

Well they simply no longer support it. I know this for a long time now. That's why the only way for me to solve my OpenGL problem is through trying some unofficial drivers.
