TA3D 0.6 beta 2 for windows

Post by zuzuf » Tue Dec 15, 2009 11:54 am

I've fixed several bugs in pathfinder and pathfollowing code, reduced pathfinder complexity by adding checks to prevent the path search to go somewhere there is obviously no interest to go and a few other minor bugs.
Also the long loading time due to some unit code is fixed so you won't have to wait hours before game starts 8)

I don't know how this beta 2 will run on windows (I still have a problem with OpenGL in my virtual machine, so I have no hardware acceleration to test it in game :( but I know it loads fine and much faster than beta 1).

As usual you'll find the package there:
ftp://downloads.ta3d.org/binaries/windows/dev/0.6/

NB: pathfinding works but after some time ground units still refuse to move for unknown reason. I tested a long game against AI and I must say the new algorithm is efficient making waves of enemies reach your base :)

Fix the name of the thread - 0.6 beta 2.

After loading process game just close console and ta3d window. Without errors or anything. Just close.

ooops.

Code: Select all

[Tue Dec 15 19:29:35 2009][ta3d][infos] [battle] initUnits() done in 24882 msec.
This is really odd :shock: , it's 23s more than what I get in debug mode and the binary I made for beta 2 is optimized.

I have no idea what can be responsible for such a long loading time, I'll definitely need to see this on a real windows in order to solve the problem. I'll see that this week end (I won't have access to a windows machine with required dev tools before the WE).

some windows tests:
loading time (cached):
[Thu Dec 17 13:44:23 2009][ta3d][infos] [battle] Preparing a new battle...
[Thu Dec 17 13:46:05 2009][ta3d][infos] [battle] *** The game has started - Good luck Commander ! ***

bugs:
campaign mode: same bugs as in beta 1 (stuck in loading screen)
skirmish: freeze in "Welcome" immediatly after loading (there seems to be some initial map movement but it too fast to do anything with it)

Sorry about that but, could you make a summary about the bugs on Windows to take a glance ? Which is already resolved ? Which is not ?
- campaign mode: same bugs as in beta 1 (stuck in loading screen)
- skirmish: freeze in "Welcome" immediatly after loading (there seems to be some initial map movement but it too fast to do anything with it) (related with #120 ? http://trac.ta3d.org/ticket/120)
- slow loading of units (24s on some computer)

Perhaps we should update and use the trac tickets more often to have in the same place all issues and their comments.

The long loading time for units bug is solved now, what isn't is the random crash at game start (can be at end of loading or a few seconds later) :cry:
