linux startup bug fixed

[Teber2]

i'm happy to report that the game now works under debian mint cinnamon 64 bits. thank you guys!

I am having an issue starting ToME on a 64 bit Linux Mint VM. When I run it I get the following error;

The program 't-engine' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 248 error_code 2 request_code 140 minor_code 21)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Any help appreciated. I am pretty inexperienced with Linux, so I am probably staring at the answer and don't even see it.

It looks like you might have a tiny bit too high screen resolution available to TOME for your system to manage.

It seems like you are running Linux in VirtualBox.
If you haven't installed VirtualBox's Guest Additions on a VM yet, then first try to install it and try to start TOME again.

If it still doesn't work, try running Linux in 1600x1200 resolution and test TOME again.

[davidbarr]

I am indeed running it in a VM, and I suspect that this is indeed the cause somewhere along the line. I have guest additions already installed, but I updated it and tried again manually setting my resolutions to a selection of them including the suggested above, but to no avail.

It is not a massive issue as I actually play this awesome game on Windows as well, but I thought I would mention it here in case it can help development in any way.

I'm guessing you are running into this problem on virtualbox: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12746

Basically DRI isn't supported, so I don't think you will be able to get tome to work in virtual box. Dual boot is the answer

However, mesa isn't well supported by tome and most of the shaders on Linux are disabled as a result. At one point I traced the problem down to the noise generator -- for some reason it takes many seconds to compile a shader. It is probably fixable if anyone with OpenGL experience would like to take a crack at it (it was beyond my experience / available spare time). If anyone notices that tome pauses occasionally on Linux with 100% CPU utilization when blood mages appear, it's the same problem. There is a supported shader check missing in that code

In any case, you will have better playing experience on Windows, so if you have it handy, that's what I would use.

You are of right about TOME having performance troubles on Linux. Windblade is one of those with very slow to draw effects.

Interesting fact is that TOME can run inside a VirtualBox-running Linux. Just for testing purposes I created a 64-bit Linux Mint 7.1 virtual machine with enabled 3D acceleration, running inside VirtualBox on 64-bit Ubuntu 15.04 (where I usually run TOME (from 1.3.1 to 1.4.3)). Then I put TOME 1.4.3 inside that VM and it ran quite nicely if a little slower than in non-VM Linux.

Maybe there are some hardware related issues that affect OpenGL - I have a Radeon R7 250 graphics card (about a year now) in a computer that is from 2010.
