[Windows/Linux version mismatch]

0.0.26 was just pushed in bullseye backports: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1383190/accepted-0ad-0026-2bpo111-source-into-bullseye-backports/

[Will 0AD be released on steam?]

While the code is open source and redistributable, I am not sure they could (or at least should) (ab)use the same name (0 A.D.) and logo.

Like CentOS / Red Hat, same code but different name and logo.

[game won't launch after 22.04 Lts (tried reinstalling)]

I would recommend to disinstall the snap version and install the Ubuntu packaged version (22.04 has latest alpha 25).

Snap version is known to have some issues.

[License]

It is possible, there are other games using code (for example Hyrule Conquest game) and assets (for example Stunt Rally) of 0 A.D, see below some references.

You have to respect the license anyway, which is usually GPL 2.0+ for game code and CC-BY-SA 3.0 for game arts.

BTW, if you want to be notified of all Debian 0ad bugs, you can go there https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/0ad, register and login. Then clicking on Subscribe you can get all notifications related to 0ad (new bugs, uploads and so on).

Then make sure to repeat for https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/0ad-data.

On the two links I provided you can also see all current bugs currently opened.

I've never heard of it before. Don't think that code checks for hyperthreading support :/ so likely no. Can you test ?

I don't have that issue, the reporter can eventually be contacted writing to his mail address, or adding a comment in the bug at 1008531@bugs.debian.org

[from Debian: assertion failure if hyperthreading (SMT) is supported but disabled]

I noticed this issue: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008531 realtive to 0.0.25b.

Is it a known issue? Is it already fixed in SVN?

Did you follow the build instructions here:

[Textures error in Virtualbox]

Can you please post the

~/.config/0ad/system_info.txt

and 

~/.config/0ad/userreport_hwdetect.txt

log files?

[Re-release of 0 A.D. Alpha 25: Yaunā]

You may also download the 0ad packages (the deb files for your arch) from testing and install them with

dpkg -i *deb

in stable.

Usually it works when testing is not much newer than stable and it should not break things. If not just remove them and reinstall with apt.

[Game fails to launch - Assertion failed: "!m_Worker"]

Actually I uploaded it in that PPA as a temporary solution until the official PPA get properly fixed, but I can keeps updating it until needed and as soon as I still have time to do it.

Thanks do you think you could update your PPA ?

When Debian will update its package I could easily sync it, otherwise I could do the work myself, however I need more time, I am also in vacation next week.

EDIT 2021-08-16: alpha 25 is now packaged in my PPA https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers/

[New Release: 0 A.D. Alpha 25: Yaunā]

Great release!

Threading and campaign support are amazing new features!

[Snap install wont open, Ubuntu]

That message is harmless and it should not happen if you also install newer mesa driver from my PPA, in which it is fixed, according to: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1332

It may be that snaps packages have problems on your system.

[Snap install wont open, Ubuntu]

Hirsute has an old 0 A.D. version, 0.0.23.

In my signature you can find a proper Ubuntu PPA with 0.0.24. To be seen if the issue still reproduces.

["Your graphics card doesn't appear to be fully compatible with OpenGL shaders."]

Your hardware should be OK, however, as properly suggested by @Angen, you should try updating / reinstalling the graphics driver, as it looks like it isn't (properly) installed, defaulting to generic software emulation driver:

OS             : Win10  (10.0.19043)
CPU            : x64, Intel Core i5-7200U @ 2.50GHz (1x2x2), 2.71 GHz
Memory         : 12288 MiB; 8669 MiB free
Graphics Card  : Microsoft Corporation GDI Generic
OpenGL Drivers : 1.1.0; OpenGL 1.1.0

BTW this was already asked a ton of times, you may found many similar threads...

[0AD it does not update with PPA]

Hi, official PPA doesn't support Ubuntu focal, but you can use this PPA, which supports it:

[MAKE A24 UBUNTU PPA]

In my PPA I won't support anything older than 20.04, but you may update your Ubuntu from 16.04 to 18.04, then to 20.04 and finally install 0 A.D. from my PPA.

[[Solved] Game Lobby Issue? -> [alpha24] [Ubuntu]]

Yes, the version currently in ppa:wfg/0ad.dev is an old experimental and, as you noticed, buggy snapshot, incompatible with the official releases.
