unable to launch updated development version

[Nescio]

Happy New Year!

Today I updated my copy of 0 A.D.'s development version, as usual:

  Reveal hidden contents

svn revert -R *
svn up
cd build/workspaces
./clean-workspaces.sh
./update-workspaces.sh -j7
cd gcc
make clean
make -j7
cd ../../..
binaries/system/test

 

But when I tried to run the game, it failed to launch and instead gave me this:

errno = 0 (No error reported here)
OS error = ?

 

The last time I updated the game was before Christmas, and everything worked then, so I suspect something faulty was introduced in one of the recent commits. @Angen, @Itms, @Stan`

Try delete your cache?

[Stan`]

Yeah all the cache is broken and must be regenerated.

[Nescio]

Thanks, deleting the .cache/0ad fixed it. Maybe something to insert under https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions#Keepinguptodate1 ?

Nvtt updates only occur once every ten years maybe more in specific section about common problems and fixes! (But then again not common at all)

What's the point update that thing? More optimization?

Could be for textures, but the point is that we are no longer forced to apply a bunch of fixes of our own on top of it for it to work, because they finally releases a new version;

[Loki1950]

Nvtt comes directly from Nvidia so it most likely was not working for their current gpu's so they had to update it even if the standard was defined when Microsoft first introduced DirectX with Win95
