No more issue at all here i.e. Arch Linux with package 0ad-0.28.0-2 (reverting to js115 from js128) as @ffm2 wrote yesterday evening (just not specifying the version). ty @Stan` for clarifying the spidermonkey bug that caused the issue. Now back to my issue as I'm lagging behind the game's new speed (efficiency) even on a light setup

Congrats on the 0ad a0.28 release ya'all ! Game's so smooth on my light setup, I'm lagging behind like a pikeman! the game's latest version segfaults after minutes here on Arch (just to confirm @ffm2 @andy5995 and @hyperion above) : both after (a27.1-5 -> a28.0-1) and (a28-1 -> 0.28.0-1) with my old a27.1 config folder, as well as if I move it no new logfile is generated upon crash that is, up to now in this location @ffm2 Will proceed to Arch linux's gitlab see if I can add something usable there.

Alpha 27 - Rivers Medium map - 1 vs 5 AI very hard - On a 13 years old Linux box with a passive Nvidia GPU. Long time since I played or posted! Loving the new maps and general smoothness of the game I thought this June would be a good time to launch a Persia vs the Empire. I struggled just a bit: Being located on the Island, they kept pourring me from both sides: conquering here meant being slaughtered there! The 5 AI managed to trade like Wall Street boys on illicit substances being walled from all competition They threw 12k units at me: 1.700 Champions, 382 Sieges and 16 Heroes! They used tons of long range sieges which Persia has not -- and I had forgotten how to use rams in packs.

That works just fine, thank you @Stan` Had read your answer to Victor13, but for some reason paid attention only to this part, not understanding the "if" wasn't the condition :

Game consistently crashes *after* reaching the main menu ie while launching a new game or the Tutorial. Last time I could play was towards the end of January (that is before a27). The issue seems to be different as the one encoutered by Victor13. OS is Arch Linux; 0ad a27-3 (Feb 8th); 0ad-data a27-1 (Jan 30th).

@hyperion and @vv221 indeed this problem is solved with 0ad a26-18 and openal 1.24.0-1 (both updated from the extra repository) on Arch Linux. Nice job, 0 A.D. community

For the non dev people, please does #7234 means the fix has already been found, 0 A.D. code updated and the next 'dev' / stable version will probably work just fine with openal-1.24+? Just FYI Jesse tested various games with the updated openal on Arch; results here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2209310#p2209310

I didn't try another yet but I could give Endless-Sky a go, as it depends on it too. Note that sound in 0 AD works perfectly fine to me with openal-1.23.1

RIP speakers :/ You may be able to plug a headset if your computer has the appropriate Jack? Good job man! OK so you have a working swap means 0 A.D. really should just slow down the system first, progressively for a few minutes. My tip if you want to try it: when you feel that slowdown, don't wait. Save your game, exit 0 A.D. and restart after a few seconds (with a SSD) or ~20 sec (with a HDD). And if you have motivation to help us understand and tell you for sure the reason why it locks up, try running 'free -m' somewhere between when you feels it goes slow and you close the game.

Mostly agree with @fatherbushido. More specifically the 'Confused' emoticon would be fine if it could display sthg like « Please ask clarifications ». Dunno if that's easily possible, but this way one receiving this reaction without any question wouldn't feel the need to add a post just for asking what is that he should clarify.

The forums are literally full of stuff of which some would fit this 'extras' content, and in various fields of interest. E.g. (and just e.g.), having studied history I have a vivid memory of the whole Kushit research and the interest it created for me (« Jee, these guys do a sh*t ton of historical research before even starting the graphics/modelisation that'll eventually lead to adding a new civ into the game! ») i.e. it inspired me respect as well as a will to contribute. For other it'll be more Graphics, or Code efficiency... Now the forum is also a time heavy place for newcomers to find such valuable 'extras' imho. atm though I have no specific idea on how we, as a community, could select and vote for some of the best contents around here. Just that it'd be nice if it also helped newcomers to (easily, visually) get where some more luv would do great to further improve the game -- and sorry for my English.

@Loki1950 @Lion.Kanzen actually I wouldn't mind having $ apt search 0ad (also 'pacman -Ss 0ad' and so on) ... 0ad-extra-artwork-20190630 A selection of 0 A.D. music, artwork, videos and ideas for the next development stage. Even though a few links would work, such an extra content would certainly help in certain occasions eg trip.

You mean what's causing the games' taxing your CPU while it's paused, right? If that's correct, please share some figures, like the CPU load and alike.

PieLam would you mind to specify when does the game locks up on your Linux box? For if right upon starting the game would have a super different cause than, say, upon a 2 hours long match. Also last time I opened a Windows forum some users had various kind of trouble and other not. May not make a generality of your own case A start would be to copy/paste the output of this command on your Linux OS: free -m Oh, and just in case to copy/past just from any termnial, you can select the text with your mouse then go where you want to paste it and just press your mouse third button (the wheel in a 3-buttons mouse). Ubuntu Linux terminal should also allow you to right click » Copy, right clic » Paste but the "third button" for paste works in *every* freakin terminal emulator I know. To multiquote you can press the [+] icon under each post you want to quote.
