If your backend is set to Vulkan and no errors on start (like switching to GL) then Vulkan is working. 100% check is to look at the userreport_hwdetect file at "renderer_backend"."name".
Which OS and which version of it do you use? Maybe try to install the game to a different location (if possible)? Like another disk. Also maybe redownload the game installer or use a different source (https vs torrent).
Could attach logs? (You might find a path to them here: http://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/wiki/GameDataPaths)
Currently it sounds like an incorrectly installed application. Maybe try to delete all installed 0 A.D. games and install the 0.27 version again.
It seems Vulkan wasn't able to start for you. Maybe you need to update video drivers. Could you attach logs after a run when you got that message (https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/wiki/GameDataPaths)?
And that the only people who enabled reports, we might have noticeably more.
Yes, I'm waiting for the release.
There is no daily statistics, only for some period.
Hi!
According to:
[E] pw.loop [loop.c:69 pw_loop_new()] 0x60457b6edb60: can't make support.system handle: No such file or directory
[ALSOFT] (EE) Failed to create PipeWire event thread loop (errno: 2)
It seems like an OpenAL or the system problem. We can make a workaround to disable sounds for that case. Did you try any other game/software using OpenAL with the new version?
