I'd like some Linux users to try my game
category: general [glöplog]
Mmmmh, that would be proselytism, and I dont think it's a good thing.
Of course I prefer Linux over Windows, otherwise I would be using Windows, but what I think is more important is to have people watch your demos.

After playing auto-repeat becomes disabled (-> long pressing a key won't produced multiple impuets) and must be reactivated using 'xset r' command.
Oh, damn, I see, it's already been mentioned, Sorry.
Run fine here !

Works perfectly on my server (x86_64 Lucid). Must be the old card in the other machine. Nice 1 duffman - keep 'em coming.
2 the whingey windows users - next time you're gaming on make sure you give thanks to all the dedicated linux servers out there that you play on.

@xernobyl: I haven't tried recompiling the kernel. I switched to virtual keys now, it should work for everyone.
If that's the issue, then I'm still better off with virtual keys.

I appreciate the support.
@ joooo : Are you saying you still lose auto-repeat with the updated version?

didn't bother to read all posts, but if you seriously want "people to try your game", how about you try a gameforum or something?
I don't mind people making games, so no offence, but POUET? REALLY?
... ahh, bed waiting :)
good luck with your game, dude!

Yes I'll do that.
I'd still like to add the no sound version as a prod. It's 64K so it goes in the 96K games category.
Anyone disagree?

Best Gameforum evar?
Duffman: With the one that was at your link shortly before I posted this so I think so.
Segfaults without even opening a window, maybe because of my laptop's integrated Intel card not being fancy enough. You supply a debug build, I provide a backtrace, should you be interested.
While we're at it: your "Solaris" demo was really cool. :)

Search your heart for an answer, you know it's true.
@snoutmate: that comic gave me a good laugh.
@ara : yes I can provide a debug build. I'll post here when it's ready. I bet your card doesn't support
one of the extension I use. I don't check for any of them, so crash makes sense.

Works for me(TM) with Sound(R).

might try it later today when i have updated my netbook to Ubuntu 10.10

On that note - who else is jumping ship today? I offer my clients lts so I'll stick with Lucid on the work box - but interested to know how it all goes. Let the bug-stomp begin....
Ok the DEBUG build is up.
Hopefully it will catch any error, exit quietly and create 'applog'.
Then you can 'less applog | grep ERROR'.
I also updated both release tarball, because I added more safety checks at startup.
@ LiraNuna: What does (TM) and (R) stand for?

"applog" is zero bytes long.
Binary is stripped of any debug symbol, so I can't attach a proper stack back trace...
Code:
aragorn@balrog ~/temp/dodgeball $ ./sdodgeballD
BEGIN Program
app::Init
RANDOM seed=679045
DB no file to load
GLX 1.3 needed, you have 1.2
GLAPP destroyed
GX destroyed
app::Shutdown
END Program
Running time= 0.052553 sec

@duffman: It's a joke on the americans who copyright and register everything as trademark.

Works perfectly on my system (Centrino, Geforce 7300Go, Ubuntu 10.04 [yes I didn't do the update yet]).
I must say I'm quite impressed you did it alone. The game is overall very polished, the gameplay is fun and very tough at the same time, and the AI is far from dumb . Well at least I played about 5 minutes and the CPU strongly kicked my ass ;)
Thumb up !

@ara : At least I see the problem, you don't have GLX 1.3, so you're out of luck. Now why it segfaults after everything is a mystery.
I'll add debug symbols. Seems to crash when I close the logg file.

The only other difference with previous debug build is I did not pack it with UPX.
Also, since I don't specify the arch to g++, I'm assuming it's built for a 686
because my cpu is an Athlon 64 X2.
I just assume that if you have a GL 2.0 card, then you must have a 686.
@ flure : I'm happy to hear that, it took a long time before I started enjoying the game. I had to rewrite the AI
a few times. Bean ball mode can get very chaotic with many players.

@duff:
Here's the backtrace. Should you need more testing, reach me via email here: ara -at- 108.bz .

HA! that's exactly what I assumed and just fixed. Cool.
OpenGL docs say this:
"OpenGL commands executed while no context/drawable pair is current result in undefined behavior"
That was laziness on my part.
Thanks for testing.
