[Fixed] - Shadows Misrender - Mesa Drivers Bug

[fabio]

Ykkrosh thanks for looking into (and fixing) this!

Hello,

I don't know really if it's the same case but I have got some weird shadows too.

I attached a screen capture to this reply.

My platform is an ubuntu 11.04 with the free radeon driver on a R600 ati card.

glxinfo:

OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD RV670

OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.10.2

OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

I use your lastest work with the ppa 0ad.dev

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wfg/0ad.dev

There is a fix for the r300 driver but I don't know if the patch can be transfered to the r600g?

I can provide you more details if necessary.

Thanks for listening

Hi Kao, this looks like a different bug than the original one. However you may want to try newer mesa drivers and see if your problem is already fixed. I manage an Ubuntu PPA with free graphics drivers for this: Ubuntu Updated Graphics Drivers PPA

If you are still able to reproduce the problem with the updated drivers you may want to let we know and also report a mesa bug.

Ok, your driver seems working well for the shadows, and the problems has disappeared.

But I'll go back to the original driver, I have some others problems with Unity now.

But it's still a good news,

Thank you for your help.
