Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

it's only low priority if there is fight over cpu time ;-)

because ryzom uses 99% of cpu time doing nothing, it might as well do it at background priority and leave cpu for apps that really need it (like second ryzom on same core ;-)

.. also early wine had somewhat basic sound drivers, and without 'nice -n 19', ryzom took all cpu and left too little for wine sound thread. wine sound drivers are quite a lot better now, so i think 'nice -n 19' is not exactly needed for that purpose anymore. i still use it, even tho i have quad core cpu now.

Yes, the install looks like it works well with Linux, but unfortunately it still has trouble with the fglrx driver. The above-mentioned install method went without a hitch, but when trying to start the client, it dies with an openGL error. When I tried running it using the radeon driver, it worked fine, but with a framerate of 0.5 or something ridiculous. Encouraging, at least.

Anyway, thanks for the setup guide!

Now, if I can just finagle a new computer with a nvidia card...

Is there a trick to setting the resolution through either the configuration program or by choosing the resolution each time from the login screen?
I keep setting mine (1920x1200) and it only runs at 1024x768 but no messages tell me of any problems.

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

Hello, I've installed the game (tried wine 1.0rc3 and 1.1.5) following directions in this thread, but configuration doesn't start and the game itself starts, but when I try to log in, it just freezes. Any idea why is it doing so?

Wine is configured as w2k with msvcrt override. Tried to override mfc42.dll and mfc42d.dll, no effect.

Configurator output: http://paste.jabbim.cz/2469
Client output: http://paste.jabbim.cz/2470

Edit: Looks like the second log is too long.. here is just the end - http://paste.jabbim.cz/2472

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

try these dlls http://atys.pri.ee/linux/ryzom_linux_dlls.zip in ryzom directory

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

I'm experiencing the same problem as juryz. I tried the dlls above, but no luck. Anyone have other ideas? Thanks in advance.

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

checked the Juryz both logs again.... configurator does not run because of wrong version of msvcrt or mfc42 (in dll overrides it must read 'msvcrt' and msvcrt.dll must be in Ryzom or windows/system32 directory). mfc42/msvcp60 overrides are not neccessary because wine does not have own versions of thoese two.

didnt notice it before, but game seems to halt (it should give error eventually) because client.cfg seems to be reset and game tries to connect to old servers. this client.cfg should help in that case.

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

Wheee! Thank you blaah! It works now.
Looks like the problem (aside from wrong dlls) was I actually followed too old guide installing too old version, it was therefore unable to connect.
Thanks one more time :)

Re: [FAQ] Ryzom in Linux (Reloaded)
 

Looks like I've been too much optimistic :D
The game logs in, but it is very slow (some 2-5 fps on my Intel X3100 on character creation screen). Also, when I try to enter the world with my newly created character, it just freezes for a while and then it crashes.

Hope you can help me again.

run 'glxinfo | grep render' in terminal. direct rendering needs to be 'Yes'. crash may also be because of opengl
