I have a working install of FSO, that works without the mods. However, when I activate mods, I get 497 errors. One of the most obvious results is that I don't see any models when I go to the technical database in the Menu screen. Just a few dots and that's it.

I've been working with this guy and he seems to be doing a lot of things right. I wonder if it's a problem with the Linux launcher script?

He also built his own executable, I believe.

If retail works but mediavps are throwing all those warnings it sounds like file corruption somewhere in the mediavps.  A fs2_open.log would help.

how can the script be complex? you just point it to the executable and add the commandline options.


nvm, re-read your post, you said launcher script, not startup script sovvie

I just downloaded a debug executable. Running it give me the same 497 errors. How can I make a log file with the errors in it?

more info, finally I did run the debug executable. Too many errors to fit in this message, so the log file can be found here

  Unable to find extension "GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc".
Please install driconf and switch on texture compression support.

Orpheus, are you perchance running the windows executables through wine on linux?


Also, as a side note, why run through the Mesa opengl interface? My advice is to use the ATI drivers for your GPU.

[The E]

Except, fglrx doesn't work for a GPU that old, and the radeon drivers are ****e.

[General Battuta]

Also I think The_E's last suggestion fixed everything and he's now happily playing.

[Goober5000]

Oy.  We had 0rph3u5 and now we have Orpheus.  How are we doing to tell them apart?

TBP badge since there won't be any more of those.
