Title: Problems with the new taylor builds
Post by: starbug on November 09, 2007, 12:05:41 pm

i am having a bit of a problem getting taylor builds to work, i have tried fs2_open_3_6_10-20071028T.exe, fs2_open_3_6_10-20071007T.exe and there debug builds, every time i try to load up any of them nothing happens i always get the microsoft box up saying Freespace has encountered a serious error and has had to close etc. I have launcher 5.5c, the normal test map vp my system spec is

athlon 64 3200+
2048mb DDr ram
ATI X800 with the latest drivers
windows xp pro with service pack2
DX9

So am i doing anything wrong or have i missed something totally obvious?

oh yeah my command lines are
C:\Games\FreeSpace2\fs2_open_3_6_10_debug-20071028T.exe -spec -glow -mipmap -missile_lighting -cache_bitmaps -dualscanlines -targetinfo -orbradar -ballistic_gauge -ship_choice_3d -3dwarp -warp_flash -fps  -ambient_factor 100

Eh, run the _debug version, when it crashes, post the \data\fs2_open.log to http://www.hard-light.net.pastebin.com , include your username in the space provided for it.

I believe you need the -normal flag to enable normal mapping.

Try adding this flag:  -no_glsl

See if that fixes the crash.

Yeah... that means you won't get normal mapping on your computer.
