Planeshift 0.3.19 released!

[iriss]

I have an intel and have tried unsuccessfully to get PS working. I get it to run but it does one of three things:
it either loads sound only and not the map.
Freezes my computer completely after no more than two minutes logged in
or after also two minutes logged in says server has lost connection and then crashes out of ps.

Same happening to me on my Dual core 2 iMac. Any resolution on this would be greatly appreciated.

Does your terminal give you any output that can help track down this problem? [that is before it crashes your mac :S ]

I don't know if that reveals everything since most of the time my computer freezes and I have to manually reboot my computer. Anyway I hope it helps.

The fix doesn't seem to be working for me... It keeps saying "install_name_tool: command not found".

[dfryer]

Alright, once we've identified why the intel version is also dying on some computers, we will probably re-release 019 or try a fix via the updater.  I will let you all know when!.

Thanks,
Daniel

You need to have the build environment installed see the Mac Build Instructions.  At the very least you will need Xcode for the install_name_tool

Thank you for the message dfryer, unfortunately I don't have the post count yet to reply, so I'll put it here.  Feel free to delete the post after you have read it ...

Since I run several sites, I have unlimited bandwidth.  My service provider is Peer 1, so it's a very high speed connection.  Just let me know when an updated version is ready, and I'll put it online.  I have already set up a third level domain for it ... http://planeshift.minoguetech.com

I hope all of you keep up the great work.  There are not many software developers out there who take the time to create a client for us Mac addicts, and I'm sure that most will agree with me that we do appreciate the effort.

I am also having a problem where shortly after logging in my entire Mac freeze crashes and needs manual reboot. I found it mainly happens when I make my character move. If I sign in and stand still it takes much longer before it crashes, or sometimes won't at all.

[Gluonite]

Yes 8BitPirate, this is the exact problem I have been having since even before the official release happened. It seems to be possibly related to opengl. If you could post your system specs that might be helpful for us all.

Caarrie, unfortunately the complete system freezes up, so I have to manually reboot the Mac. I wish there was some indication as to what happens when crashing. I checked my logs, but there is also nothing to go by.
I tried the updater, but that also seems to crash as soon as it starts downloading the update files.

I really appreciate all the effords you put into this in solving the problem.

Aside from what is already posted here I'm also noticing that, after you log in and it shows your character in the center window, a good portion of the background around the character image seems to be missing as the camera rotates around it.

This could be a lighting issue. Try to start the client from the command line with:

./psclient_static.app/Contents/MacOS/psclient_static --relight

Relighting the podium should not take very long. Then, when the character selection window has loaded, just quit the client again and start it as normal. Hopefully this will remove the black patches you see.


@Iriss: Try to catch some of the output which is produced before the macine freezes by doing this:

./psclient_static.app/Contents/MacOS/psclient_static --verbose > output.txt

Then, after rebooting, try to look at the textfile output.txt to see if there is anything of interest there.
