Entropy Report post Posted June 17, 2008 Please only test this if you have above average computer and reading skills. This is a very rough alpha so it will require editing files, reading and following instructions, etc. While everyone is welcome to try it, please do not post about any problems here if you do not qualify. Before we begin testing, here are a few things you should know: 1. Edit config.xml and set your data directory properly. 2. Read the readme.txt file for instructions about navigation and key shortcuts, setting the rendering quality, etc. Since the purpose of this test is to see if the core engine features work on multiple systems, many things are unfinished, including: 1. On non low quality settings, the reflections are on black (no sky reflected in the water). On low quality, there are no reflections. 2. There are no 2d objects (such as grass spots, transition between tiles, etc.) 3. Transparency does not work (no alpha defined for the textures). Therefore, trees, plants, etc. will have black spots. 4. All the materials have a very high specular lighting, acting as though they are made out of shiny stuff. 5. The FPS is in the window title bar, please report the FPS (both at day and night) when you view the map from a corner in such a manner that you can see the whole map at once. If you encounter problems (crashes, weird things not mentioned here, etc.) please post the content of errors.log, your system specs (especially the videocard), and a screenshot if you think it helps.

Chefge Report post Posted June 17, 2008 its not working at all here, neither of the executables; a dialog box pops up saying: "The application failed to initialize properly(0xc0150002)" the error / warning logs are not getting changed looking at date and time, error.log is empty anyways. tried with severall settings and qualities. system specs: athlon XP, geforce 7600GS with quite new drivers (UVP1 4sho), WinXP SP2.

Chefge Report post Posted June 17, 2008 - on the normal viewer, w/o debug, the "f3: loads the Isla Prima map and uses static instancing" thing causes a crash - works with the debug version, but theres an error popping up (that can be ignored tho). same errors pops up there when doing F1 as well, see screenshots - some other error when in debug mode and switching to day (starts up with night@height map) that crashes the viewer instantly when ignored - everything else seems to work fine so far - did all tests w/ high quality and all settings enabled screenshots system specs: athlon XP, geforce 7600GS with quite new drivers (UVP1 4sho), WinXP SP2.

Entropy Report post Posted June 17, 2008 Great, can you try it on low quality as well, and see if it crashes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chefge Report post Posted June 17, 2008 with low quality, the non-debug still crashes as soon as i F3. the debug version doesnt give an error on F3 anymore, it works. 2 things i forgot to mention earlier (and that are still present): in the debug version, i first need to F1 or F2 before F3, else crash, and it always gives a runtime error when i exit with q / esc / x-button.

kl4Uz Report post Posted June 18, 2008 System: Intel Centrino Pentium-M 1,86 GHZ 1 GB DDR2 RAM NVIDIA GeForce GO 6600 Windows XP SP3 with config/quality_low.xml All three maps work fine, both with day and night lighting. Framerate at about 45-50 FPS in F3 mode. with config/quality_medium.xml I can only check the height map, when I press F1 or F3 the application closes immediately without any warning and entry in the error log with config/quality_high.xml Everything works perfectly. Framerate at about 15-20 FPS (except with F2 where it is much higher). Other than that I'm experiencing all the issues you mentioned in your initial statement. Anything else that needs to be tested?
