Post by: Colim on April 22, 2005, 10:56:45 am
I have a still a lot of glitches, especially inside buildings (arena, a.s.o.)
But I have no doubt that DFryer will take care of it, so I\'ll try my best to be patient

There is now a fix for it.

Open up the file data/config/r3dopengl.cfg using a text editor (like TextEdit)  Then, somewhere, on a blank line, add this:

Video.OpenGL.DelaySwap = no

This *should* fix a lot of the glitchiness! Thanks to res2k of Crystal Space for suggesting this.

It works for me.  I just tried this fix and I was in the castle before being driven nuts by all the graphic redraws.

So far so good.

I have added the line in the config file. It works almost perfect. Thanks to both Chaos and DFryer. Will there be a solution as simple as this one to deal with the sound? :)

dying...

this sounds like you have a permission issue.  \"Read only\" is a basic access permission.  Are you sharing this computer with anyone else?  Or you may have installed this program under your \"Administrator\" login name and you are simply logging in another account?

command + I the planeshift folder.  Look under ownership & permissions.
Are you the owner?  If you are, then just unlock the folder, give yourself access and relock the folder.

If you are not, the then owner needs to give you access rights.

If you need help doing this there\'s plenty to read about this on the Internet.

You need to have copied the \"Planeshift  3D\" folder from inside the PS_Install disk image, to your Desktop or the Applications folder.  It cannot be modified while in the PS_Install folder (and no settings will be able to be saved)

The hack works 100% for me. I went to every place where I\'ve experienced that glitch and it doesn\'t do it anymore. Now I can explore the arena without hitting a wall and not knowing it!

Thank you!!!

The glitch have all gone with the little fix, but there is a small problem left.
Some places which normally is dark shaded becomes totally black, some small spots in the arena, and all the grass (former green) in front of the magic shop becomes black. Not a big problem, just the look :)

One other little problem. When I went down a stair and use 3 person follow view, the vertical areas in the stair gets invinsible.

To your first problem: the Mac version has always had some issues with textures and map lighting.

To your second:
That\'s probably a general issue, not just Mac-specific. You should probably post it in the CB bugs thread.
Title: Inside glitch works but Now have outside glitch
Post by: Felix Yellowhair on May 01, 2005, 04:03:06 am
I can work in the sewers now but when I go outside I now get
repeating images and options windows that will not disappear.

Felix

actually I did get this problem mostly fixed by doing the following:
Blurring of images and arrows repeating              
I am a newbie, buy not as new as I once was. On leaving the sewers and elsewhere, the floors would blurr again and again and the arrows came back in mulliple swirls. Much of the interior blurring stopped when after I turned
the sound down to mute and I added a line recommended by the gliche people: Video.OpenGL.DelaySwap = no
In the file: data/config/r3dopengl.cfg
But on exiting the sewers the blurring and arrow repeating continued.
eventually, I discovered that if I pushed my arrow forward on the keyboard
I could get to the outside wall and the blurring there disappeared. Also If i hugged the outside wall and walked toward the tavern and the two Enkidukai stationed outside it, I could escape the blurring. But If I recrossed the sewer steps walking toward the white outside floor, I will fall inside the sewer. Once I fell and survived with some damage but usually
I will get the message \"you have fallen off the end of the world\" and I find myself back in the Death Realms.

Since  this information is also under \"Blurring of images and arrows repeating,  I think someone could just delete this message.  However can I
use \"report  above to do this?
