Hi,

I have a problem under Linux ubuntu, the game don't start :

Abandon

Thank you in advance for your help.

bye.

OK, from the video it looks like you're using Ubuntu - but some more details on your setup would be helpful. Graphics card and driver version especially...

To get things straight; OpenBVE does start, you're able to select a track, but as soon as the OpenGL window comes up you get the abort?

Which track are you using with which train, and have you tried more than one of them?

Hi,

My configuration is:
-CPU: 2,6 GHz
-Ram: 512 mo
-Graphic card: nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 (128 mo) with the latest nvidia-glx driver
-OS: dual boot: windows XP, Linux Ubuntu

On winXP, openbve work correctly

To get things straight; OpenBVE does start, you're able to select a track, but as soon as the OpenGL window comes up you get the abort?

Yes, when the openBVE window arrived, the game close.

Which track are you using with which train, and have you tried more than one of them?

I have tested on many tracks and with different trains, I have always the problem

Bye

I have found a workaround to avoid issues with ATS and reversor lamps (Graphics/handle.png Graphics/lamp_narrow.png Graphics/lamp_wide.png) all these files must be in RGB/Alpha or pallete (Indexed) mode, not in Grayscale/Alpha.



Some sound issues in Fly-by and Track view, when the train moving ahead, the frequency of sound (hornsound for example) is reduced to very low values. I cannot test this behavior on windows / mac, so I don't know it is linux only issue or not.

@railtux: I am extremely sorry to have accidentally overwritten your previous post. As an administrator, there are a lot of extra buttons, e.g. EDIT, DELETE, QUOTE, etc. As it seems, instead of clicking QUOTE, I hit EDIT and have overwritten your post when I actually wanted to answer. I tried my best to restore the content and searched through my browser cache to find that information, but as it seems, it is lost. This has never happended to me before, and I can only repeat to say that I am sorry for what happended. You should be able to edit your post in the case you are willing to repeat the basic points.

My original answer to your post:

Thank you for testing with the alpha. As it seems, it is a Mono issue then, because it is Mono which is asked to load the PNG files. When passing the data to OpenGL, it is already converted to 32-bit ARGB, so the loading stage is to be blamed, done by Mono. Theoretically, I could save the PNG files as color, not grayscale, but I always use pngout to optimize the PNGs, which might introduce grayscale.

As for sound, I am not sure if you mean the doppler effect, because that natually occurs with OpenAL and is a core feature. However, if you cannot compare the effect to a Windows system, then of course I cannot assure whether it sounds right or wrong on your computer. If you know what a doppler effect should sound like, then you should be able to tell me if that is what you hear.

I recover my post.

About PNG's, i think it is not problem for linux users, to convert images to indexed (or RGB) mode themselves, or wait until this bug will be fixed in mono.

About sound, yes it is some kind of doppler effect, here is audio recorded to show the effect, first half in interior view, second in the exterior view.

Other things works perfectly, exept some windows only things, of course.

No, that thing at the end is definitely not normal. To be fair, OpenAL has predefined ranges in which pitch changes are allowed to occur, and openBVE frequently exceeds this range. While this seems to work on Windows, the Linux implementation of OpenAL might be more strict. Thus, the thing at the end could be the flange, motor or track sounds, because they use pitch changes. If you are eager, you could try removing some of those the sounds from the train folder in order to isolate which one causes the problem. Of course, the effect could also be due to a faulty implementation of OpenAL for Linux. Probably it would be best if I had Linux myself in order to test this, but this is not going to happen.

I've found that happens because package llibtaoframework-openal1.1-cil was compiled against old openAL implementation.

I manualy changed line in file Tao.OpenAL.dll.config.

Hi

first of all I think it is great that there is someone making the effort of writing a rail simulator which runs under linx.


I have problems in running OpenBve under linux. I am using OPENsuse 10.3 and Mono 1.2.5.


I have downloaded OpenBve 0.8.8.4 and after unpacking and starting it with "mono OpenBve.exe" I get a messagebox with the following error message:

Could not find any resource appropriate for the specified culture or its parents. Make sure "OpenBve.formMain.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "OpenBve".


Then I downloaded the source distribution and compiled it successfully in debug mode. Starting the executable yields the following output:

Unhandled Exception: System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException: Could not find any resource appropriate for the specified culture or its parents. Make sure "OpenBve.formMain.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "OpenBve".

This sounds to me as if there is a resouce file (name: "OpenBve.formMain.resources" (?)) missing.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Bye.

Sorry. This is a frequent problem I am having with SharpDevelop. As I develop with MSVC# primarily, the designer generates resource files, however, SharpDevelop does not like them, and therefore, I am not using them when compiling with SharpDevelop. There is one line of code in the main menu which is responsible for loading the icon for the Windows built:

formMain.Designer.cs wrote:this.Icon = ((System.Drawing.Icon)(resources.GetObject("$this.Icon")));

The problem is that SharpDevelop does not remind of the fact that this resource is not present and happily compiles nonetheless. For the Linux and Mac builts, I need to remove this line but frequently forget it. I will make a fix available instantly (compare date: 2008-09-24).

Version: OpenBVE 0.8.8.4
System: Ubuntu Linux 8.04 (hardy)
Openal version: 0.0.8-7

Problem: OpenBVE initial menu starts and works OK but as I hit "Start" game I get "An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Tao.OpenAl.Al".

Version 0.8.7.2 worked OK.

I see in Tao.OpenAl.dll.config the line:
<dllentry os="linux" dll="libopenal.so.1" />
but libopenal.so.1 does not exist in my system and is not available in Ubuntu 8.04. I change the line to libopenal.so.0, which does exist but I get the same error. May be I need a newer OpenAl?

The same thing with every train/route tested.

Among other packeges, I installed the following to get OpenBVE to work:

libmono-i18n2.0-cil
libmono-winforms2.0-cil
libmono2.0-cil

$ sudo apt-get install libmono-i18n2.0-cil libmono-winforms2.0-cil libmono2.0-cil

Thanks.

Hi

I downloaded openbve version 0.8.9.1 for linux and the sources. Starting the application works and also selecting a route and a train. The progress window for loading the route and the train pops up and after loading I got some warnings/errors for the route and the train. After clicking on "ignore" the applocation crashes with the following error message:

=================================================================
Got a SIGSEGV while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries
used by your application.
=================================================================


This happens for both, the precompiled linux exe and the exe which I compiled successfully from the sources.
I only had to get two files which were missing in the 0.8.9.1-sources from the 0.8.9.0-sources: formMessages.cs and formMessages.Designer.cs.
This happens to all the routes/trains which I had tried and which had worked successfully with version 0.8.8.4.

I have no idea how to interpret this error.

Bye

Unfortunately, I have no ideas how to interpret this, either. One thing that has changed though in-between 0.8.8 and 0.8.9 is that the route and train are now loaded in a background thread instead by the main thread. However, the background thread does not (or at least is not intended to) call any SDL, OpenGL or OpenAL methods. As such, the loading mechanism should be thread-safe, which it seems to be with Windows. If you know how to recompile the source code, then try running openBVE from within the development environment, thus, make a debug session. Hopefully, execution will stop at some point and you are presented the line of code which forced the crash. In Visual Studio and in SharpDevelop, there is a start button, which I don't think will be any different in MonoDevelop or whatever you are using.

However, one thing is a little weird. In my current source code, line 98 in Program.cs corresponds to Sdl.SDL_ShowCursor(Sdl.SDL_DISABLE), which disables the cursor in the output window. Even though Program.cs was a bit differently organized in previous versions, that line of code was present for a long time, probably since 0.5 or 0.6. Doesn't seem to make much sense, except in the case you have something different at this location.

Hi

I have tried to carry out a debugging session, but without any success. Hopefully I do not have to read too many manuals. The source code with I have in
0.8.9.1 source of Program.cs around line 98 and 13 is

12 #if DEBUG
13 Start(Args);
14 #else

91 // icon
92 {
93 string File = Interface.GetCombinedFileName(Interface.GetCombinedFolderName(Application.StartupPath, "Interface"), "icon.bmp");
94 if (System.IO.File.Exists(File)) {
95 IntPtr Bitmap = Sdl.SDL_LoadBMP(File);
96 if (Bitmap != null) {
97 Sdl.SDL_Surface Surface = (Sdl.SDL_Surface)System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.PtrToStructure(Bitmap, typeof(Sdl.SDL_Surface));
98 int ColorKey = Sdl.SDL_MapRGB(Surface.format, 0, 0, 255);
99 Sdl.SDL_SetColorKey(Bitmap, Sdl.SDL_SRCCOLORKEY, ColorKey);
100 Sdl.SDL_WM_SetIcon(Bitmap, null);
101 }
102 }
103 }


I have some problems with the 0.9.0.0 linux distribution. somethig seems to be wrong with the archive. It should be 1.33MB long but I download (several tries) only 960kB and when extracting the archive I always get an error message stating the archive is corrupted. Downloading and extracting the 0.9.0.1 source works and also compilation works successfully. When starting the compiled exe i get the route selection dialog and after selecting and clicking the start button the application crashes with an error message:
