Project: LinCityNG Category: None Status: Open Resolution: None Bug Group: None Priority: 5 Submitted by: letharion Assigned to : none Summary: Gameplay is extremely slow Details: I just installed 2.0 on Gentoo Linux. I start the game from terminal and create a new world. The cpu usage goes to near 100%, and the game runs really slow, say 2-3fps. Terminal output: Starting lincity-ng (version 2.0)... [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/usr/share/games/lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is the write directory. Language is "en_US". fast = 9 OpenGL Mode 1024x768 ldsv_version = 1322 Starting lincity-ng (version 2.0)... [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/usr/share/games/lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is the write directory. Language is "en_US". fast = 9 OpenGL Mode 1024x768 ldsv_version = 1322 Follow-Ups: Date: 2010-Jan-20 00:23 By: jaky_lincity Comment: The Segmentation fault could be due to bug #15195: https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=15195&group_id=2929 . It would be nice if you could provide us with a backtrace to see if the segfault is caused by the nvidia-drivers, bug #15195 or something else. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2010-Jan-19 16:30 By: letharion Comment: $ cat /proc/cpuinfo | head -n8 processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz stepping : 11 cpu MHz : 2393.488 cache size : 4096 KB $ lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G92 [GeForce 8800 GTS 512] (rev a2) lincity --sdl worked a lot better :) It seems like I was using the xorg-x11 implementation of opengl (Not sure what that means) so I tried switching to nvidia, which gives: $ lincity-ng --gl Starting lincity-ng (version 2.0)... [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/usr/share/games/lincity-ng] is in the search path. [/home/letharion/.lincity-ng] is the write directory. Language is "en_US". fast = 9 * Fallback to software mode. Segmentation fault My personal problem, the slowness, is now "solved" by using SDL. There seems to be some problem with using the nvidia-driver however. I'm using version 190.53. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2010-Jan-19 16:06 By: jaky_lincity Comment: Could you give us some more details about your system? What CPU and graphics card do you have? Are you using a driver with hardware acceleration? Do other opengl-games run better? Please try the sdl-mode (lincity-ng --sdl). Maybe it's working better on your computer. With lincity-ng --gl you can switch back to the opengl-mode. ------------------------------------------------------- For detailed info, follow this link: http://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=16633&group_id=2929 _______________________________________________ Lincity-ng-devel mailing list Lincity-ng-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/lincity-ng-devel
