This thing is driving me crazy. I downloaded my own
install archive from www.gnubg.org, installed it on my home PC (Vista)
and ...
IT DOESN'T FUCKIN' WORK :(((((((
The bloody cube does not change board side when the
playing direction is switched. It does with a 2d board, but not with
a 3d one. However, when a match/session starts, the cube is
positionned correctly (according to the currently set playing direction).
Back on my XP PC at office, some extra tests:
- often, switching to 2d and back to 3d, the cube
moves correctly the 1st time the direction is changed, but not the subsequent
times. - if I check "Show shadows" in the 3d options,
then the cube moves but is messed up when on one side: only 2 faces (and the
shadow) are shown. Also, when the cube is displayed correctly, full screen
shows up fine, but when the cube is shown wrongly (bad side and/or bad
drawing) the full screen is totally messed up. I've put a bunch of screen captures
in the zip archive:
- I also noticed that, even in cases where the full
screen shows up fine, it doesn't really work: as soon as I roll and move, the
display is totally messed up.
- if I check "Quick draw" then the cube
moves correctly and full screen works fine.
The XP PC has an Intel 82865G Graphics Controller:
maybe it's a bit old (drivers are up to date) and it does not support latest
opengl stuff. however at home I have a muchmore recent one (ATI
X1300 I think), I would be surprised if it causes such problems. I'll
check again tonight.
