Ermabwed Report post Posted February 25, 2008 Using those options minus NEW_SOUND I get timers.o: In function `my_timer': /home/jan/el/elc/timers.c:94: undefined reference to `LOCK_ACTORS_LISTS' /home/jan/el/elc/timers.c:96: undefined reference to `UNLOCK_ACTORS_LISTS' collect2: ld gab 1 als Ende-Status zurück (that last message translates roughly to "ld returned 1 as end-status"). Using NEW_SOUND everything compiles without problems, except for 2 warnings about floats being transformed to Uint8 in actor_init.cpp lines 642 and 654.

bluap Report post Posted February 25, 2008 Those are my options:.... Thanks for that. I notice you have SIMPLE_LOD disabled which is a shame. It works rather well to improve performance for me at least. I particularly notice this in Portland storage which is a weird place anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluap Report post Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) Using those options minus NEW_SOUND I get timers.o: In function `my_timer': /home/jan/el/elc/timers.c:94: undefined reference to `LOCK_ACTORS_LISTS' /home/jan/el/elc/timers.c:96: undefined reference to `UNLOCK_ACTORS_LISTS' collect2: ld gab 1 als Ende-Status zurück (that last message translates roughly to "ld returned 1 as end-status"). Using NEW_SOUND everything compiles without problems, except for 2 warnings about floats being transformed to Uint8 in actor_init.cpp lines 642 and 654. I've fixed the compile without NEW_SOUND problem. I think Xaphier is best placed to to check the cast warning (which I don't get with g++ 4.3.0 BTW).

Yes, SIMPLE_LOD should be included until such a time as a better one is in. it help the FPS with high perspective & FPS views. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool, thanks, works now. I'm using g++ 4.1.2, which is the latest stable marked version for amd64 on gentoo at the moment (sys-devel/gcc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted February 25, 2008 Simple lod makes the game look really ugly, especially because it removes the edges of some tiles which are 2d objects. I did not notice any significant improvement in speed with it on anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluap Report post Posted March 23, 2008 Please can we have an update of the latest options used for the RC build. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schmurk Report post Posted March 24, 2008 FEATURES += CACHE_ANIMATIONS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluap Report post Posted March 24, 2008 FEATURES += CACHE_ANIMATIONS I thought USE_VERTEX_ARRAYS too but it looks like it's been removed from the code but left in make.defaults. Probably best if we remove it completely. Just for discussion. When we reach the RC stage, could we update make.defaults to reflect the RC build? It should not change much at during RC builds.

Yes, good idea, also adding a tag to the CVS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
