Are there any .diffs for the OA engine versions? I'd like to know what and how it was synced.

Edit: Nevermind, I just downloaded the two .tar.bz2 and did .diffs for myself.

Did Lupus say he tested the various mid-release binaries and found out that the problem started with version 20? Undecided Maybe that was "rm" in the thread about 0.8.8 IPv6 issues (where he found out that something changed between 18 and 20).
IIRC, Lupus has not done that test yet (I suggest him to do it, if he can).

tested some binaries but not all of them. problem seems to reside between the first and second one which would be 0.8.1 and 0.8.x-2

results listed below:

openarena-0.8.1                 working
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-2   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-3   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-4   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-6   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-7   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-8   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-9   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-10   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-11   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-12   crash
openarena-engine-bin-0.8.x-13   crash


since i doubted there would be much of a change i stopped testing at that point.

if necessary i could keep testing the remaining ones...


again, while using 0.8.1 .exe i have got the r_gamma issue where the game wouldn't allow me to change gamma settings as well as my q3config.cfg will be rewritten every time i start the game.

About gamma not changing... I know there is a bug that you cannot change brightness in windowed mode after you switch from fullscreen to windowed mode. Not sure, but maybe someone said it's a long-known SDL bug.
I don't know if that is the same gamma problem as you mention. Of course, it should be not related with the other strange things you experience...

You could try using something like ProcessMonitor to check which files and folders openarena.exe fails to open, in case it's really a permission issue and not something else.

I'll try OA 0.8.8 on my Win7 64/Nvidia system later, maybe I'm "lucky" and run into the same problem Smiley

well i read about the gamma issue during windowed mode but think it is kind of unrelated because i never start the game that way. since the gamecrash started after the 0.8.8 update after everything worked just fine and because i did a full windows reinstall i thought it would kind of go away easily.

but now it seems like the only version working would be the 0.8.1 and no other is working at all.

i guess i should test the remaining ones as well (without much hope).

to grey matter's advice: when i find out how to look up the file permissions on process monitor i will do that but i was too lazy to do a google search for it.

otherwise i am sticking to 0.8.1 version for now, even though it is a little bit of a mess

Can you also try this binary:

http://zsensible.free.fr/openarena/oa-binaries-r2224.zip

This is the binary compiled from the very latest OA 0.8.8 merge with ioquake3 r2224.

Either you have an issue with permissions as someone pointed out, either there is a subtle change in the code that produces a huge problem on some rare configurations.

I tried to check the sources, but the sources for 0.8.x-2 aren't available, so I couldn't check exactly the changes. Maybe Sago could provide us these sources?

You should not disclose publicly your contact informations, use PM to the one requesting your infos instead (disclosing publicly leave you open to spambots and hackbots).

I've also spotted some stuff. Well, it could be present in previous versions, I dunno. You should fix the textures in following maps:

1) dm4ish map (the same corrupted texture is visible from above and below).

2) oa_dm4 (when standing downstairs beside the teleport).

3) oa_rpg3dm2 (near the megahealth upstairs, right in the corner on the floor).


Thank you in advance.

The rpg3dm2 bug was fixed.
I'll fix the others now.

I'm not sure about the relationship with "cut maps" and the future "quake tribute maps". All maps in currently in "cut content" category will not be placed even in the tribute pack, when the next major OA release will come out?

Oh, my God! It's crazy to cut out such an excellent map as dm4ish Sad Lotsa people will be really upset... I've just found out a texture glitch in q3dm6ish, but after reading the answer here it'll be also dumped... Crazy... just crazy Sad Btw, what are the tribute packs and where can I find it?

It's not fixed in the 0.8.8 release, but the hotfix hopefully will contain said fix. I've uploaded it in the SVN Commits thread, as part of the 0.9.0 stuff, but I will upload it separately as part of the 0.8.8-2 hotfix stuff.

About dm4ish, we cannot let anymore to have bad quality maps in the game which make the game to look bad. That kind of maps makes OA to be the punchbag of FOSS games, and we don't want that anymore. I might retexturize it for the Q3 Tribute pack.

I'm not sure about the relationship with "cut maps" and the future "quake tribute maps". All maps in currently in "cut content" category will not be placed even in the tribute pack, when the next major OA release will come out?
The thing is that we couldn't cut stuff in patches, so "dummying out" stuff was the best option ATM.

About the tribute maps, IDK, these could be rescued, (I've tried to retexturize dm4ish in the past, plus some extra changes) but from my experience, it might be better to rebuild them from scratch. "Quake 1" style mapping brings a lot of problems when ported into "Quake 3" style mapping.

According to this you call czestdm a "quality map" for example? Come on, that's ridiculous to leave such a "map" and dump a really good one  Grin
All I can do here is just make a facepalm. Sorry, guys, no comments...

Hi! I've noticed that someone added a bot-related bug in the wiki, that I don't remember to have read here.

Bots still cause Server Shutdown (Server crashed: netchan queue is not properly initialized in SV_Netchan_TransmitNextFragment) - AAS shutdown on dedicated servers?

Any ideas?

Never had this bug on the official OA build and with maps that have properly configured AAS script (on dedicated or normal game server).

So I think either this guy was using an unofficial and unstable build (eg: old versions of the server-side demos patch), either used a mod that do not handle properly or handle differently bots, either the map used for his test hasn't got bot support.
