[solved]Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-25-2007 MODERATOR NOTICE: --------------------------- This is an issue with older file versions and sould be updated on all download sites. For those experience the error see this thread: http://frictionalgames.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1080 --------------------------- AMD64 Gentoo (Linux 2.6.20-gentoo-r8) Penumbra DEMO The game starts and gives me a black screen with the word "Loading" on it for about 8 seconds, then dissapears and leaves me back at my desktop without bothering to set the resolution back to normal. I've symlinked the libraries included with the game to those compiled on my own system (32-bit) with gcc 4.1 RE: Crashes during load - Thomas - 05-25-2007 Make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date and try again. What graphics card do you have btw? RE: Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-25-2007 nVidia GeForce 7950. yes, the drivers are up to date. RE: Crashes during load - Urkle - 05-25-2007 zeroth Wrote:AMD64 Did you try running the game with the provided libs? Also, can you attach a copy of your hpl.log (located in ~/.frictionalgames/Penumbra Overture/Episode1) RE: Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-26-2007 I just tried a fresh install of Penumbra with the provided libs, and it does the same thing. this thing wouldn't let me attach the file :-) so here is hpl.log: Code: -------- THE HPL ENGINE LOG ------------ RE: Crashes during load - Luis - 05-26-2007 Check this thread and see if that helps RE: Crashes during load - Urkle - 05-26-2007 zeroth Wrote:I just tried a fresh install of Penumbra with the provided libs, and it does the same thing. Where / When did you download that? If you downloaded the demo after the 18th, that was fixed.. But if there is still a demo installer with this issues on a mirror somewhere they need to be notified to update their copy.. RE: Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-26-2007 I don't recall where I downloaded it, but it was very recently (days ago). I'm downloading http://38.118.213.166/agfdbajtzi+/pub2/Penumbra/Official_Demos/PenumbraOvertureDemo-101.sh/X6 right now (filefront mirror). I'll post again when I try to run it. it was probably one of the official mirrors that I originally downloaded from. RE: Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-26-2007 yeah, I get the same error. I'll try a different mirror. RE: Crashes during load - zeroth - 05-26-2007 downloaded from http://www.3ddownloads.com/Adventure/Penumbra:%20Overture/Demos/PenumbraOvertureDemo-1.0.1.sh checksum failed. I downloaded it again, and the checksum failed again. same checksum as the previous attempt, so I assume thats a screwed up file too. ...trying a different mirror edit: gamershell.com is at 200/200 users, so I can't download from there either. I'm out of options, unless I go get a bit torrent client. sigh. edit: I'm just gunna download the bitmap from http://frictionalgames.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1080 edit: works now, thanks. :-) |
