Please post your bug reports in here.

With your bug report, please submit the following information:

1) OS: Your operating system, i.e. Linux, Windows, or otherwise and what version you are using.

2) 3D card: The 3D card you are using. If you do not know, this is printed on the "Renderer:" line in the console when Sauerbraten starts up.

3) The edition of Sauerbraten you are using, i.e. Assassin edition, CVS as of a particular date, or otherwise.

4) Error information: If you are on Windows, a pop-up message showing filenames and line numbers should show up when Sauerbraten crashes; if possible, post a screenshot or a copy/paste of this. If on Linux, post a log of the startup info from the console, including relevant errors or any info you might have discovered. If on MacOS X, please post the crash log if applicable.

5) A description of the problem and how to reproduce it. Please give as much detail as possible on how someone can recreate the problem, in as certain terms as you can. If someone else can't reproduce the problem, it is unlikely he can fix it or tell you what is wrong.

2) 3D card: GeForce 9500M GS/PCI/SSE2

3) SVN 918 (March 27 2009)

4) n/a

5) I took a screenshot of a ragdoll problem (model getting hung over a ledge by only kneecaps http://tsholden.com/games/kneecaps.jpg), and after I clicked to resume play, Sauer stuttered to a halt. I gave it a minute and then closed it out. Not error popups or anything, ran fine when I restarted it immediately after.

A ragdoll's do-not-move-after-x-secods is inappopriate if the ragdoll is underwater.

It'll just freeze in a really wrong way.

/kill yourself in thor, you'll understand.

#147: Two graphical glitches

by Maxime -Max of S2D- Lebled on 04/03/2009 09:38

1) The return of the glitchy reflections

- Get underwater
- Get back above water, but really SLIGHTLY, so that your view is just about to clip into the water.
- Look around
- Profit

Actually, the reflect doesn't get updated if you're too close to the water. I had already reported this glitch and it was fixed... so it reappeared, somehow.

2) You can see waterfall through 3D grass.

by Hirato Kirata on 04/04/2009 00:46, refers to #148

that's a bug that probably wont ever be fixed, I've told eihrul ages ago, and he's been aware of it even before that

the reason is that grass is before the materials in the render chain, so the grass is rendered and then materials follow, painting over the grass.

if you swapped these two, you'd ALWAYS see the grass over the materials, even when the materials should clearly be in front

if you can figure out a solution, I'm sure eihrul would be happy to accept it :P

#150: Editing surprise.

by Stotto on 04/04/2009 00:48

Can anyone explain to me the _slightly_ odd result when
you chop the top four (default sized) cubes off this pyramid ?

Best viewed from the pebble side, and a safe distance.

(And while you're there, maybe try and give the square pillar
a missing corner like the other one)


(march 10 sourceforge version on windows XP home, just in case it matters)

by SheeEttin on 04/04/2009 00:56, refers to #149

I think you're more likely to see grass in front of a material, rather than the other way around.

The only instance I can think of where a material would be in front of grass would be if someone was in a waterfall cave, looking out at grass.

But I play with grass off, so it's a non-issue for me. :P

#158: Problem dropping out of full screen, loosing mouse & kbd

by georgew on 04/09/2009 18:02

I have a fresh installation on an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS system (that is up to date with all OS updates). A dell 530 with 4g of ram.

The game loads and runs fine, and looks great, using only the motherboard video.

I'll be in the game for about 10 minutes, when it will suddenly drop out of full screen mode. The game is still running, but it is holding onto the keyboard and mouse still, but not accepting keystrokes, and only slightly responsive to the mouse.

This is sort of like a lockup, in that I no longer have control of the system... But the game appears to still be running.

Is there a way to get it to release the keyboard and mouse? If so, I could hit the button to go back into fullscreen mode, and continue gameplay.

The game in unplayable in this state.


Thanks!

You're not, by any chance, using Compiz? In other words, are you using desktop effects? If so... install the Compiz-Fusion Icon and switch over to the Metacity WM whenever gaming.
