Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Re: Grass Tuft Texture Blown Up and Flickering - Only Near Water Surface
« on: May 21, 2012, 04:36:37 pm »
As an update for 0.5.9.1:
My computer now crashes in the presence of all grass, regardless of whether water is nearby or not (i.e. outside of Hydlaa East right before the road goes to the loading screen for the Oja Road - I'm fairly sure there isn't water anywhere in Hydlaa East) and regardless of any other graphics settings (low, medium, high).

It occurred to me to check the console, but all it gave me was:
21/5/12 5:26:26 PM   ReportCrash[3523]   Saved crash report for psclient_static[3519] version 0.5.9.1 (0) to /Users/XXX/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/psclient_static_2012-05-21-172626_XXX-MacBook-Pro.crash

So, I'll post what the crash report has in it here, and hopefully that will help.

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Re: Grass Tuft Texture Blown Up and Flickering - Only Near Water Surface
« on: May 13, 2012, 02:36:24 pm »
Aha!  Well, it's not actually in an invisible folder (though I did turn them on just to check and make sure), but it's classified as a system file, and I hadn't selected to search through system files.  It was in USER/Library/Application Support/Planeshift/ and I've no idea why I didn't think to look in application support in the first place.

I added the command to the planeshift.cfg there and it didn't have much of an effect on the flickering. Curiously, the grass tufts that were blown up and misplaced on the screen (you can see an example or two in the vid) weren't flickering as much (seemed to be at a different rate?) than the rest of the flickering grass that was in the correct place and size on the ground.
I did remove the command from the .cfg afterward.

Is that glIntercept program for windows, or did I just not understand what popped out of the download zip?

Well, I couldn't find the planeshift.cfg, I fould psclient.cfg in my Planeshift folder, and added it to that file.
It didn't make a difference in the glitch, so I removed it.

I'm not terribly sure how (mostly where, even after reading the readme for it) to install glIntercept.  The .exe files make me think it's for windows?  Just a bit nervous about dropping things into the psclient package.

If you're seriously curious about solving this issue, I'll see what I can do, but since it's an individual problem, I don't want to take up your time and energy.  I know you're busy, and I'm not so worried about grass tufts (which I understand is a new feature anyway) that I can't wait till the next version update to see if things pan out.

Certainly!

...Testing...

It does also happen with background loading set to 'models', including still stopping when the inventory interface is opened.
What had you hoped that would do?  I'm not familiar enough with graphics programming to know exactly what every setting does.

So... Is this but unique to my computer, or can someone else verify?

Update:
I've found that it stops when I open my inventory window, and only my inventory window.  I tested opening and closing different combinations of the chat, skills&stats, quests, spellbook, information, options, help, the quit screen, the bag, and buddy interfaces, but that didn't make a difference.  I changed the window settings on different interfaces (including my inventory window) and that doesn't make a difference with the flickering either. Only whether or not I have my inventory window open makes a difference.

When a surface of water (lakes on the roads) enters my field of vision grass tufts blow up to their max size (not scaled by distance) and flicker noticeably (around 4 fps, regardless of my current fps).  Grass tufts otherwise seem to function normally i.e. when I turn my character around, and can no longer see the a lake's surface.  Could anyone verify this, or tell me what settings I can change?

Current Graphics Settings:
Color Depth: 32
Anti-Aliasing: 2xQ
Anisotropic Filtering: 8x
Texture Quality: Highest
Shaders: Highest
Enable Grass: √
Enable Weather: √
Enable VBO: √
Loader Cache: √
Background Loading: World
Particles: High

Edit: And, should I post this as a bug on the BugTracker?  It'd be my first time trying :/
