could not load texture textures/notexture (SOLVED)

[Gallaecio]

Hi,

I’ve just upgraded to 1.3 and I am getting this when I try to run the game:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

[gallaecio@afonsox sdl_image]$ redeclipse
loading enet..
loading game..
loading sdl..
loading video mode..
vsync is disabled
loading video misc..
loading gl..
renderer: GeForce 8800 GT/PCIe/SSE2 (NVIDIA Corporation)
driver: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 304.37
Rendering using the OpenGL assembly/GLSL shader path.
could not load texture textures/notexture
could not find core textures


I can not asure this was not the case before the upgrade, though, so it might has nothing to do with the new version.

The only relevant thing I found was a topic on the Pardus forums, http://www.pardus-linux.org/forum/pisi-atölyesi/red-eclipse-ve-unknown-horizons-paketleri (you will probably need Google Translate), which seems to suggest it might be an issue with sdl_image. I am using sdl_image 1.2.10, however neither rebuilding it nor upgrading it to 1.2.12 solved the issue.

Any help is more than welcome.

You need to run Red Eclipse from the directory it is stored in.

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

[gallaecio@afonsox aqueronte]$ cat /usr/bin/redeclipse
#!/bin/sh
for arg
do
    if [ "$arg" = --help ]
    then
       exec man redeclipse
    fi
done

RE_OPTIONS=""
cd /usr/lib/redeclipse || exit 1
exec ./redeclipse ${RE_OPTIONS} ${1+"$@"}


I am building the game for Chakra, and I had built it in a build server. I decided to try locally, using the same script to build it. The local build works. But I need to find out why the other one does not. Both have the data files in place, including the textures/notexture.png file.

You should probably use pushd and popd instead of cd, for starters. But I can't really help you if you use the game in a way other than how we intended.

It turned out to be a simple dependency mismatch. I build it in the stable repository in the build server, but I use the testing in local, and there were some packages in testing that prevented the RE build from stable from working. Fixed with a testing rebuild.

Thanks anyway, and now lets have some fun!
