Re: Total graphical corruption

So no one has any ideas as to why it will run under Linux and not Windows? I want it to work under XP, because the Linux one seems to be quite unstable (Latest SVN release, mod and AI versions) in that it crashes regularly and locks the machine up.

Re: Negative resource usage problem

It seems that even the alt+SysRq+k command doesn't work when the game locks up. I had another game, played CA against TestGlobalAI (KAIK crashed the game, AAI didn't work), 26 minutes in the whole computer locked up. Also noticed some strange resource problems, but maybe those are specific to CA... ...

Re: Negative resource usage problem

What is the SysRQ button? I don't have any replays because the game keeps crashing... I did have the resource 'bug, or whatever' on other machines while playing as well, i'm not the only one of my friends who has noticed it haha hmmm... i'll see what i can come up with.

Re: Negative resource usage problem

Ok so how do I go about getting this IceUI for Spring? Also, played another game with a mate, and had about four aircraft working on a plasma battery and a commander building metal extractors, was creating about 15+ metal and drain was about -70, see what I mean when i say the figures don't stack up...

Re: Total graphical corruption

Surely it has to be something fixable, I'm not going to resign myself to not being able to play it on Windows - as it turns out my Linux Spring will faithfully crash and hang the entire system after an indeterminable period of time, every time I play. Twice now I have been lost out in an awesome FFA...

Re: Negative resource usage problem

Thanks for the shortcuts... I don't really know them being new to Linux and all... I tried running it in a maximised window, and I get screen flickering ingame (black band that flickers across the screen). It only works when fully maximised. Either way I ran some more tests, NTAI ALWAYS crashes the ...

Re: Total graphical corruption

Come to think of it you must be right - I had a try playing the free game Celestial Impact the other day (Which Im fairly sure is based on the Quake3 source, so it's totally OpenGL) and I also had massive graphical corruption... but ACTUAL commercial games that use OGL like Quake3 and UT99, UT2004 e...

Re: Negative resource usage problem

Alright, well, in light of all this, it seems that you guys are adamant there is nothing wrong with the system. Being this the case, I'll play a few more games and see how it turns out, but it really seems to feel different to me to the standard TA system - otherwise I wouldn't have said anything......

Re: Total graphical corruption

Well I doubt its my video card considering that every other game runs without a problem (including Crysis, Supreme Commander etc) and I never get artifacts, which are typical of videocards overheating or being faulty (I know because Ive had four bad video cards). It works on my brothers machine unde...

Re: Negative resource usage problem

Glad to see I'm not the only one who has this problem... that means I'm not hallucinating. I don't know what you mean by stalling, but i think the meaning from what I have been saying is pretty obvious anyway - im always draining more than im producing, no matter how many metal or energy creators i ...

Re: Negative resource usage problem

Sorry my mistake, I should have worded it better - Drain was the word I was looking for. It is the same system as TA, is it not? Generators create energy, miners create metal, building drains both resources. Regardless of the error in wording, the problem is still the same - the drain on my resource...

Negative resource usage problem

Hi guys, Another problem my brother and I have found with Spring... maybe you guys know what it is? I have found (no matter what mod I play, be it BA, CA, PURE, NOTA etc...) that the amount of resources being lost is completely disproportionate to the amount being produced (which i know is normal fo...

Total graphical corruption

Hi guys. I currently have both Linux and XP on my machine, with a Radeon HD3850 256mb card, 2gb of ram and a core2duo e4400. Here is my problem: When I try to load the game in XP (i.e. starting or joining a battle), the screen becomes full of colourful noise, there is no image what so ever other tha...
