Segfault when clicking on Fight

After clicking on “Fight”, the splashscreen shows. I press a key and the game segfaults with

Which scenario were you trying to run?

That looks like a bug in the Open source driver that is not liking the GLSL shaders that one of the scenarios is using. If we can isolate which scenario causes that issue then I can nail down which shader is the culprit.

4

I was trying the tutorial.

Is there a way to get email notifications when someone replies to this thread?

5

Is there a mesa-dbg package available for your distro? If so, I think it would allow you to generate a more helpful crash log in case it needs to be sent to the mesa team.

Also, there’s a “subscribe topic” down at the bottom… And also a checkbox for “notify me when a reply is posted” when you make a post.

Edit: Looking at the latest source code for the R600 Gallium drivers, it looks like TGSI_OPCODE_RET is simply not supported (r600_shader.c)… Not supported by mesa or not supported by the hardware, I’m not sure which… I’d guess this is a mesa bug if this game has a shader that needs it.

Is it possible to convert those GLSL shaders to ARB? If so, I think that might be something to try.

I get a whole bunch of shader link errors every time I click on fight…

This happens on this PC:
Debian Linux 5.0 (Lenny) 32-bit
AMD Catalyst 9.3
MESA 7.3

and also on this PC:

Windows Vista host with Debian Linux 7.0 (Wheezy) 64-bit Guest
VirtualBox (latest version with guest extensions installed)
nVidia drivers for Windows (latest version)
MESA 7.11

So I do think there is something wrong with how the shaders are linked… Both my PCs play through the fight and even though the shaders give link errors about shields and such, the shields are still showing up in the game just fine… So I don’t know what the deal is with the shader link errors… They seem to be bogus / irrelevant because the game still runs fine.

I have to run the game in windowed mode on both Linux PCs so that I can click “OK” on the shader link error pop-ups or the game will not proceed to the battle.

The Windows version of the game runs just fine on Windows.

I also get this message from the game into the console…

XOpenIM() failed After clicking on fight

7

The shaders are used for global screen effects, and only some scenarios even use them. The latest build (hopefully up there today) handles the shader issue better, but first not displaying popups like it currently did, but just logging it to the console and silently ignoring the errors. However you shouldn’t be receiving any errors with the system using the AMD Catalyst drivers if they are setup right… (note that if you are using the proprietary drivers you shouldn’t be using mesa)

8

The drivers I’m using are about 3 years old because AMD dropped support for the hardware…

Anyway, game appears to run just fine now…

Just in case you’re curious about the link erros that I get…
