Entropy Report post Posted December 16, 2003 Ok, I'll reboot in Linux now, and create a new version with debugging info, which wil dump a core when crashes. Then, peopel have to send em the core, so I can see what is wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted December 16, 2003 Ok, another try. First, go to: www.libsdl.org and download the latest version of SDL, SDL_net and SDL_mixer Then install them, in that order. This thing goes for everyone. If still crashes, www.eternal-lands.com/el.x86.bin2 (download it again, it's a new file) Then type: "ulimit -l unlimited" no quotes, of course. Then: ./el.x86linux.bin2 When it crashes, do a "ls -al|grep core" Then send me that core file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted December 16, 2003 i think that you can't really use a new mesa libs. opengl in X and the driver for your card is compiled for mesa that comes with X and they made some tweaks so you can't just download a new version and put it in. i've read it in the X sources readme, when i was trying to get opengl acceleration to work on my old notebook. ( it got broken display now so i'm using it as a router and firewall for my home network. i have 20 days uptime, with a notebook:-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Galahadh Report post Posted December 16, 2003 I crash whenever attempting to trade items and I get like a 10 second delay between actions when around other players. It seems to happen at random because sometimes I get no lag and good FPS, others I have to wait up to 10 seconds before doing anything. Same map, same time periods so it isn't night/day/rain causing it. I have the most recent EL files that are public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted December 16, 2003 Did you download the latest patch? That did fix that problem. Anyway, for linux people with problems, try this: www.eternal-lands.com/el.x86.linux.bin.leeloo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though i got only segmentation fault eror, without the SDL thing.. and bin.leeloo file is not working 2.. p.s. the link for linux.bin2 is broken, real url is www.eternal-lands.com/el.x86.linux.bin so please tell where to find a core file Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Learner Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Interesting, it tried to read almost 50M of data! I think that might help Leeloo find out whats going on. What ever is causing it to try to read 50M would be the bug in my educated opinion, and then that read overwrites memory causing the crash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leeloo Report post Posted December 17, 2003 It's "ulimit -c unlimited" to create core files, NOT -l. The latest version hasn't crashed on my computer yet, and I have no idea where to look unless I get either a core file or a way to crash it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crus Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Leeloo & Entropy the ulimit -c works.. i've compressed the core file and uploaded it here: http://www.transmute.co.yu/misc/elcorefile.zip file is 10mb.. game crashed when i clicked on a boat banner to take me from isla prima to WSC.. and now while i'm in wsc i can't log in.. hope this will help you to resolve the problem.
