Devastation Net 0.1.4.1
2008, June 5th 11:33 PMI am, of course, a perfect programmer. You can tell because I never make mistakes. Since I'm obviously perfect, this release is clearly not a bugfix for an incredibly stupid and important mistake, but rather I have decided that implementing one or two very minor features clearly justifies a new release, for excellent reasons that nobody else could hope to comprehend.
Therefore, this release includes a few things:
- A little codebase cleanup
- The EMP weapon's glory device resistance has been increased significantly, and I've added a visual effect to show it
- Small UI improvements, including a note to emphasize the glory device resistance a little further and some improvements to gamepad setup
- I've heard that some people might have found that the game just didn't run. Obviously this is impossible since I never make mistakes but, you know, if you did have an issue running the game . . . you, uh, might want to download this version.

Thanks again for reporting that :)

2008, November 29th 8:52 PMHi. Tried the Linux version, installed it in vanilla Hardy. I get the following trace, even though I have a working nvidia 3d accelerator. I automatically sent the traceback to you guys. Hope it helps..
A dialog box pops up and says: "Can't find your 3d hardware, aborting. Maybe you need to install third-party 3d drivers? Feel free to post on the forums (http://forums.mandible.net) if you think this message is wrong or want some help fixing it." (But the forums didn't have any Linux posts.)

2008, November 30th 1:18 AMWell, largely the reason there are no Linux posts is because nobody has made any :)
I had some trouble figuring out what I could or couldn't assume from a Linux system. Whatever SDL looks for to determine if OpenGL is available isn't there. I don't know what that is, however. I was able to fix it on some systems by installing the proper 3d drivers, and wasn't able to find any where that didn't work – but it wouldn't surprise me if those installations exist.
Can you play any other games through Linux? Knowing what else works might help me track down why this doesn't.
Cory
2008, November 30th 7:00 PMYou betcha. Most recently I've played both of the Penny Arcade games and Eschaton Volume I. (Pretty much everything Greenhouse releases for Linux, I'm buying.)
Is there anything you'd like me to try?

I actually can't think of any. I think the problem is fundamentally that SDL kind of sucks. I need to make a new build of the game anyway, once I get to that I'll start trying to figure out how to make it more compatible. At the moment, I'm sort of out of ideas, though.
It's good to know for certain that it's a problem, though, and to know what I can compare it against. The only other bug reports I've gotten were of the form "well, it doesn't work, but I don't usually play games, so I don't know if it should" :)

2008, December 1st 2:39 PMOK. I wish SDL didn't suck. :-/
Just for grins I decided to ldd the RainSlickEp2 executable .. does this look like the same libraries you are linking against?
