Bugs and graphic compression

[Aleytia]

Hi !

I'm new in game, and I have a few bugs.

When I loot a rat, when I sell or buy something, when I trade, the game shuts !

So, I think, but I'm not sure that I have to shut off the graphics compression. But I read the Guide, I've done a search, but I didn't find anything. Please indicate me which topic I have to search.

Sorry and thanks !

Bye

Thanks a lot ! But, for my problem, do I have to do all the steps of this guide, or juts a few ? Can you indicate me please.

I'm very sorry, but I'm a french user, and I don't understand all the guide.... So, I hope it is just a part of it, because when i read, I didn't understand.

If somebody can help me, it would be very nice.

I'm am soooooooooo sorry to annoy you...

Thanks and sorry again,
Bye !

I would try following the guide as best as  you can step by step.  There may be unnecessary steps, but better safe than sorry

Bonjour;

I agree with Induane... but I will let you know that the most import step from the guide for me was:

IMPORTANT1: if you are running on Intel and you are having graphical glitches or the game isn't working at all, you may want to disable texture compression. You can do this by editing the file Planeshift3D/data/config/r3dopengl.cfg to turn off texture compression. Find the line:
Code:
;Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_compression = false
and remove the semi-colon, so that it looks like so:
Code:
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_compression = false
Save the file and start up Planeshift. It should hopefully fix your problems.

Making that one little change made all the graphics appear correctly, allowed me to loot mice, and be able to read windows that I opened (such as inventory and stores).

Bonne chance!

Au revoir!

P.S. If you are having troubles with the change I can send you the file with the modification and you can simply replace the one you have.

Thanks a lot !

I tried to edit the files, but I can't change their names or something in, because the file is in a disk. So, somebody know what I have to do ?

Thanks !

Bonjour!

If the files are still in the disk or disk image it sounds like you have not installed the game yet.  Open the disk image and drag the PlaneShift3D folder to your applications folder (or wherever else you would like the game installed).  At that time you will be able to edit the files required.

Please let me know if you require any additional assistance!

Bonne chance et au revoir!

Thanks !

Well, I drag my PlaneShift file in my Aplications, and I remove the semi-colon of the step of the guide, but it doesn't work..... =S

SOmebody can help me ? Do I have to do all the steps of Guide ?

Thanks and bye

Bonjour!

At this point I will have to say yep, do all the steps in the guide that you can... please post your system specifics though as they may allow some more knowledgable people to help you get this working (OS X version, computer, procesor speed, memory, video card, etc.).

Bonne chance!
