Ryzom

It worked fine on :

• Ubuntu 10.04LTS 32 bits
• MacBook Pro 15-inch
• 2.66GHz Intel Core i7
• 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
• NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with 512 MB

• Up-to-date Debian testing/sid/experimental
• Up-to-date nouveau driver (from nouveau git)
• 1.83GHz Intel Dual-core CPU
• 1GB RAM
• NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600

• My character's head disappears from time to time (female Zorai)
• I've been "disconnected" without UI feedback. I can't do anything, my quest log is empty, etc., but nothing says I'm disconnected (system/connexion even shows some traffic)

Works fine on

Hardware: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5200+, Nvidia 9600 GT 512 MB, RAM 4 GB
Software: Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) 64bits, Linux 2.6.32.24, NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-190.53

Nice work!! :)

1024*768 : performance seam to be a bit greater with all options maxed out compared to when I use it in XP (not all maxed out in options)
===>> added comments : walked around a bit and performance is not really better. I thougth initially that since all options were maxed and I did not see any real problems that it was performing better. But in fact, if I set the graphic options to about the same I use in Windows XP, performance is about 75% of what I have in XP.

However, first thing I noticed is water surfaces is a gradient between totally white and totally transparent with no ripple effects (just like a flat surface). I think I had this back when I was playing with Direct3d or OpenGl.

For your info, I had alot of problems trying to setup my video drivers with my ATI card. After alot of problems, I simply stopped trying once I found I had no more problems (not necessarily having the best performance or solution). I have found a link to update the drivers. I may try it again.

Module Loader present

Just found out something. When I did a game quit, my terminal had this :

sudo nice -19 ./ryzom_client

X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes)
Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 11577
Current serial number in output stream: 11579

It could be related on STLport not used under Linux. We should make a test with STLport and check differences.

Hi,

I'm running the Ryzom client on :
Ubuntu 10.04 64bits (up to date but no backports)

Computer Giada Slim N10 :
Processor Intel Atom N330 dual cores processor
NVIDIA ION graphics
2GB of DDR2 RAM and
2.5 inch SATA II hard drive.

The linux client is running smoothly but I need to downgrade graphics : no shadows, no micro-vegetation etc.

• Kubuntu 10.04 LTS 64 bit
• ASUS G71V
• Intel Duo T9400
• 4 gig RAM
• GeForce 9700M GT 512MB

Seems to run flawlessly at above Windows performance.

worked perfekt on:

Works fine excepted layout ( http://dev.ryzom.com/boards/18/topics/3088 ) and the sound : I have no sound at all and after the login I have this line :

That's related to OpenAL, you should search how to specify OpenAL to use another sound lib than OSS.

What are you using ? ALSA, Pulse Audio, Jack ?

Thanks ^^
I use ALSA, so I installed alsa-oss instead of changing anything and it works fine :)

Running on:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 550 @ 3.20GHz
4 GB DDR3 1333
GeForce GT 240 512 MB DDR5 (Nvidia driver 195.36.24)
Mandriva Linux Spring (2.6.33.5-desktop-2mnb SMP x86_64)

Some crashes in the character creation window. The game runs very well without any crash.

Tested ok on:
Athlon 2400+
1 GB DDR
GeForce 7600 GT 256 DDR2 AGP
Mandriva Linux Spring 32 bits

Running on:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9450 @ 2.66GHz
2 GB DDR3 1333
GeForce 9600 GT/PCI/SSE2 (3.2.0 NVIDIA 195.36.31)
Fedora 13 Linux (2.6.34.6-47.fc13.i686.PAE)

Generally all seems to be OK (some little X Errors don't care).
But absolutely no sound. Have no ideas why - there are usually no any sound problems in my Fedora.

Ubuntu Lucid 64 bit

CPU: AMD Phenom(tm) 9350e Quad-Core Processor
Memory: 3963 MB
OS Version: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 14:58:24 UTC 2010 x86_64
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250/PCI/SSE2
OpenGL Version: 3.2.0 NVIDIA 195.36.24

Pretty much all ok, one annoying camera bug.
Sometimes (~50%) resets to looking down from above upon beginning to use the mouse to pan, both with left button (camera only) or right button (turning character). Very playable, though.

Mandriva Linux 2010
AMD Sempron 2600+
2 GB DDR RAM
ATI RADEON 1950 PRO supporting OpenGL 1.3

The menu freezes at the beginning if the mouse pointer gets outside the window. The game is beautiful but unbearably slow even with the lowest level of details. I'm quite disappointed as someone at the festival of video games told me that Ryzom would work just fine on low end machines :(

Debian Squeeze, 2.6.35.7, nvidia 260.19.12
AMD Athlon2 265, Geforce 9600 GT
4GB RAM

Was fast on High settings but could only run around, various things did not work but the client seems outdated now as I got this error:

XML files invalid
msg.xml and database.xml files are invalid (server version signature is different)

Notice I'm using the open source ATI drivers. Works fine, haven't noticed any graphics glitches.

It was tested with sabayon 5.1 live DVD (10 december 2009), Ryzom works without any installation.

Tested fine on Live Distributions :

Hi. At first thank you for the new binary (revision 1122).
I tested it for a while and it seems to run well on my machine:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 550 @ 3.20GHz
4 GB DDR3 1333
GeForce GT 240 512 MB DDR5 (3.2.0 NVIDIA 195.36.24)
Mandriva Linux Spring (2.6.33.7-desktop-2mnb SMP x86_64)

The mail/web part of the game works ok and the "camera jerk" was fixed.
I was able to read an incoming mail dated on August :)

Really great post nice work i love your work and its really helped me in my research.Thanks fashion zone
