Missing inventory item art?
« on: December 09, 2007, 01:44:29 am »
I built from source for my Kubuntu Gutsy machine and everything works great but the items in my inventory are blank white squares.  I've tried replacing my art directory with the art directory from the install package but no luck.

Has anyone else had this issue?  I get hover text telling me what the items are so I can still play, but it's pretty annoying.  Can anyone tell me the file I should have for a dagger?  Not sure what I can look for with this.  Please help.

The place to look is in art/things/something.zip/something_icon.dds. Though I have never heard of the icons being white squares if they are missing, they are normally just invisible... I suspect some other problem, not one I have experienced. Have you run the binary release version before this?

I can browse the correct images through my file explorer.  I can see images of daggers and other things I have.

I just tried opening up file permissions to no avail.

I have the same problem see my post here (http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=32075.0). Have you found a solution to this?

I had the same problem. It is caused by the drivers of your graphics card. The problem is they don't support S3TC texture compression. You need to edit a few lines of data/config/r3dopengl.cfg.

I changed:
Video.OpenGL.MesaForceS3TCEnable = yes

to his:
###Video.OpenGL.MesaForceS3TCEnable = yes
Video.OpenGL.MesaForceS3TCEnable = no

and it worked for me.
