CB v11 on Updater

[Kim]

Oops, knew I forgot something...

933 MHz PowerPC G4 running Mac OSX 10.4.2
512 MB SDRAM

NVIDIA GeForce4 MX
64 MB VRAM

I have a feeling it has to do with the video card driver.  I got it to run on my iBook which has an ATI card in it and have had no luck on the NVDIA in my emac.


EDIT:  Although the game freezes on the iBook after it loads the level, and I can\'t play .

Maybe. I updated my drivers, just to be sure and that didn\'t work either. I\'d be interested to check the computer and video card specs of those of us who can get it working and those who can\'t. If someone with a NVIDIA card can get it to work, that might not be the problem.

Did you get Planeshift working properly?

How do you get a video card driver for OS X?

I have not seen one so far (except the drivers shipped with the system).

[the_eagle_]

not sure if this is helpful, but as far as i know the only way to get drivers for mac os x is if apple releases them, which basically means you\'ll have to update mac os x or download them from the apple site, but they don\'t usually do that for things like the Nvidia graphics cards they put in some of the older g4 systems, so as far as getting new drivers goes, its pretty darn hard. i\'ve looked for new drivers for the Nvidia GeForce 4 MX 64 mb graphics card in my comp, couldn\'t find one, but maybe i just need to look harder

Well the Pssetup always crashed for me \'till I trashed the vfs.cfg and updated again. Now Pssetup works so maybe try doing that if you haven\'t already.

[Kim]

I have the newest OS (10.4.2) installed, which claims to have the most updated drivers to date for my card. Just to be sure I downloaded the old firmware for the NVIDIA drivers on the Apple site (way OLD, but I was desperate), but my situation is the same. Still not working right. There\'s no newer driver shown on the Apple or NVIDIA sites.

I was able to play perfectly with the 3.010 realease. Has anything drastically changed with the client that would make 3.011 unworkable with our drivers or graphics card? I\'m of the thinking that it\'s a bug problem at the moment and I just have to be patient and wait for the full package release download.

Even after trashing vfs.cfg and reupdating, my pssetup refuses to work.

[Cha0s]

Yes, yes, yes, it is a bug! As soon as I can find dfryer, we\'ll get a fix (simply updating the build). Until then, please sit tight and be patient.

[Kim]

Both of you, thanks so much!

Hello all, my frist post on the PS forum.

I have the DejaVuSans.ttf, problem.

I have test PS on 2 MacOs machine and :

On a IBook G4:
OS: 10.4.2
Processor: 1,2 Ghz
RAM: 512 Mo
Video Card: Ati Mobility 9600
Video Card Memory: 64 Mo
PS Client Version: 0.3.11
Description of the bug:
I have install the 0.3.10 version from a Dmg file.
A chmod 755 on  psetup, psclient and psupdate
A update of all file
A config of psconfig file
And all work with no problem

Now i have test on a IMac G4 Machine:
OS: 10.3.9
Processor: 1,2 Ghz
RAM: 768 Mo
Video Card: Ati Mobility 9600
Video Card Memory: 64 Mo
PS Client Version: 0.3.11
Description of the bug:
I have install the 0.3.10 version from a Dmg file.
A chmod 755 on  psetup, psclient and psupdate
A update of all file
A config of psconfig file
And the psclient crash, i have look on command line for have errors messages.
can\'t open  \"DejaVuSans.ttf\".

I have see this font on a Gnu project:
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/wesnoth/wesnoth/fonts/

I can\'t test for the moment but, i will test if i can found a solution with FONTPATH on config files or with the psupdate.jar


I hope that my experiment will be useful  you .

Tuxette.

I beleive the crash is not related to the missing font.

I tried to put a font renamed to DejaVuSans somewhere (I wonder where I put it, I deleted that installation already), and the crash looked exactly the same. Except it did not complain about the missing font anymore.

[Cha0s]

The font is not the problem. I have that message and it works for me. The problem is a bug in the code (which has since been fixed). I\'m looking for dfryer so we can build it again!

[the_eagle_]

when you and dfryer are done i finally be able to play (hopefully) *crosses fingers*
