Minimum System Requirements

aragilar · July 15, 2009

Will 0 A.D. run on my system (Ubuntu 9.04), its specs are 1.6GHz centrino processor, 1.5 GB RAM, Intel 915 Grapics Card, basically Compaq Presario V2325AP.

I ask because when I attempt to run it, a window appears for a few seconds, then the following error messages appear in the terminal:

TIMER| InitVfs: 2.39276 ms

TIMER| InitScripting: 4.39253 ms

TIMER| CONFIG_Init: 34.9378 ms

get fences failed: -1

param: 6, val: 0

TIMER| write_sys_info: 40.4529 ms

ogl_tex.cpp(697): Performance warning: your graphics card does not support compressed textures. The game will try to continue anyway, but may be slower than expected. Please try updating your graphics drivers; if that doesn't help, please try upgrading your hardware.

Intel 915 Grapics Card

I should imagine that with that card you'll have to set all the shader options to off/lowest in the localconfig file whereever possible.

I have the card on a netbook and I know from experience the "fun" in getting new engines to play nicely with it (though in Windows that is).

aragilar · July 15, 2009

I made the suggested changes in the GettingStarted wiki page, still doesn't work. If anyone succeeds in running 0 A.D. on the Intel 915 Graphics Card, can you post the setttings used to get it to work.

**Mythos_Ruler** · July 15, 2009

What version of OpenGL and other drivers do you have? I am just taking a stab in the dark.

**Ykkrosh** · July 15, 2009

I can run the game (very slowly) on an Intel 945GM, but don't know about 915.

That backtrace doesn't look very informative - could you try running it in gdb to see where it says it's failing? ("gdb ./pyrogenesis_dbg", then "r", then wait until it dies, then "bt", then "q")

**janwas** · July 15, 2009

Sorry, but that message gives more hope than it should. While people are welcome to try it out, the game just won't run adequately on gfx cards without S3TC compression, multitexturing and certain other extensions. I'd say at least GF3-class graphics cards are needed.

What version of OpenGL and other drivers do you have? I am just taking a stab in the dark.

Good question in general (and the game will tell you via binaries\logs\system_info.txt), but in this case even newer drivers won't help because this chipset isn't really up to the task.

It just struck me. I seem to recall the 915 (btw i'm fairly certain the 915 is the 945, they just confuse you like that) has a cut down version of opengl, in the same way it has a very cut down version of dx7 (even though its classed as dx9 compatible).

If the 945 is working the 915 should too.

OpenGL Drivers : 1.4 Mesa 7.4; OpenGL 1.4 Mesa 7.4

Just out of interest (since it won't make much of a difference in terms of the game being properly playable): What does "glxinfo | grep renderer" say?

Hmm, looks a bit like game is trying to print a stack trace for the your-graphics-card-is-too-slow warning, and the stack is getting corrupted while trying to do that. I have no idea why it wouldn't work, though... Could you perhaps try modifying source/lib/sysdep/os/linux/ldbg.cpp around line 127 (in debug_DumpStack, just before the "return INFO::OK" line) and add

printf(">>>\n%ls<<<\n", buf);

and then compile and run and then (hopefully) it'll print a new message before the "*** stack smashing detected ***" which you could post here.

i'm fairly certain the 915 is the 945

It looks like 915 is GMA900, 945 is GMA950, so they're different hardware (though on Linux the i915 drivers are used for both).

chiefwhosm · July 15, 2009

Ah you're right. I was thinking 950, not 915 when talking about my netbook.

Hello,

soooo, after having mostly the same problem, posting in another thread, then seeing this one and realizing this is actually the exact same result I get ... whatever, I have a Radeon 9600 XT - so probably fast enough in itself - but with them free 'radeon' drivers, since fglrx doesn't support my card any more . I added that line and got this:

... and so on.

After googling a bit, I found out that 'Stack smahing detected' is a new GCC security feature to detect buffer overflows. So, I guess what is happening here is a simple buffer overflow somewhere.

Regards,

fk

**Ykkrosh** · July 16, 2009

Whoops, there was a "file[DBG_FILE_LEN]=0;" which quite possibly triggered that stack-smashing error. Fixed in SVN now.

July 17, 2009

Yup, works for me now. I guess I can blame those

(C)ontinue, (B)reak, Launch (D)ebugger, or (E)xit?

things onto my graphics drivers?

Apart from that, I can see much potential for this. Oh, and nice skyboxes you have there. Very much historically accurate, I imagine

**Ykkrosh** · July 17, 2009

You can blame the "ogl_tex.cpp(697): Performance warning: your graphics card does not support compressed textures" message on the graphics drivers, and the Continue/Break/etc message is a consequence of that. It might be possible to avoid the warning by enabling S3TC as in http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/S3TC (e.g. with the x11-libs/libtxcdxtn package on Gentoo) - otherwise the game will decompress its textures and use a load more RAM than it ought to (hence the warning).

I am sorry, maybe I posted on the wrong forum. I don't know how to delete this. Sorry. Mods can delete it if they want.
