Command Briefing - No ANI-Playback
Mr_Maniac:
Hello!
I've a problem with fs2_open_linux (again)...
It runs perfectly stable, but ANIs won't get displayed in the command briefing.
There's just an empty window (in all missions).
Is this already known?
taylor:
I just noticed that yesterday. It's just a stupid code error on my part in the code that helps guard against crashing with corrupted anis. I'll get it in CVS as soon as I get the chance later today.
Mr_Maniac:
Okay...
Now ANI-Playback works, but other things don't ;)
Music for example... It just doesn't play anymore...
And the speech in command briefing doesn't work as well...
Oh... And now fs2_open_linux sometimes is really stuttering like I have no RAM at all...
In the last mission, it even stopped and consumed ALL MEMORY INCLUDING SWAP! More than 1 GB!
Then it got killed by the kernel... :(

Next on my list. Not sure what broke or when but I'm reverting recent changes to find the problem and go with a better fix. Got an idea of where the problem is so it should be fixed shortly.

Well that's not very fun. I'll give it a run through Valgrind and see if a new memory leak has cropped up.
taylor:
Ok, the voices and music should be fixed now. I found one memory problem which could have been a real issue if you play one mission to the next but not if you play one mission and then exit the game. That last mission is *really* large and is one that even I don't play with all of the SCP graphics installed to help reduce memory usage. After the current code freeze is over we'll have a look at fixing that but for now everyone just has to put up with it.
