Mac OSX Specific Issues / strange video duplication problem
« on: January 18, 2005, 02:34:39 am »
Hello, I\'m a familiar MAC and Unix user, but new to Planeshift. I am having a strange video duplication problem trying to run Planeshift on my mac, that I haven\'t seen anyone else talk about. First, my specs - I am running on a 700 MHz G3 iBook (could the G3 be a problem?), with 640MB of memory, running OS X 10.3.7. I copied the file into /usr/local/lib as mentioned in this thread, no problem there.
The problem - When I start up the app, the window opens, and then divides in 2, down the center. It then seems to put a distorted copy of my dock menu in each one, and then divides each of those in half, and then the top half gets divided in half again, etc. Until along the top, there are many micro-copies of my screen. Each little window has a copy of the loading bar, the game menu, and my mouse moves 20+ pointers around. I put a screenshot online - http://hikenbike.net/photos/temp/planeshift-screen.jpg
Any thoughts? If there is any more information that would be helpful, just let me know. I am looking forward to playing! Thanks for your efforts developing a free MMORPG! Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Erin
