Can't load game on Arch Linux #118

zapateo · 2015-05-16T07:48:52Z

I compiled the game with the make command and everything works right. When I start the game I can see the intro screens and the main menu but when I try to start any of game mode the window closes and I get this error:

  chaoticrage: /build/assimp/src/assimp-3.1.1/code/Importer.cpp:738: const aiScene* Assimp::Importer::ApplyPostProcessing(unsigned int): Assertion `_ValidateFlags(pFlags)' failed.

and it creates a core dump.
I compiled using both assimp library from Pacman and the one I downloaded using the ./tools/linux/assimp.sh, getting the same result.

EDIT: Uninstalling the assimp library installed through Pacman and using the one provided with source code I get a malloc() error after starting the game

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue!

I can re-produce the fault with assimp-3.1.1 with Ubuntu, created issue #119 for this.

I have no problem running the assimp version provided with the assimp.sh script with Ubuntu 15.04. If you have the time, could you please build with 'make DEBUG=1' and run with GDB (gdb ./chaoticrage) to provide the backtraces ('where' after crash)?

You're welcome, I hope this output will be useful:

This stacktrace looks a lot like #119 so when we fix that, this will probably work for you.

It looks like it only affects custom map meshes, which have different load flags than the 3D models.

Can you try the lakeside map? It doesn't have any custom meshes.

zapateo · 2015-05-17T09:54:17Z

Thanks a lot for the hint, it works perfectly with Lakeside map.
I will wait patiently for the fix update!

esper · 2015-05-17T10:07:38Z

@zapateo thanks for the logs! Could you also provide the stacktraces for the malloc() error with assimp 3.0?

…ces flag. 'aiProcess_OptimizeGraph' and 'aiProcess_PreTransformVertices' cannot be used at the same time. This might not be the best solution, but fixes the assimp 3.1.1 assertion for custom map meshes. TODO: Zombies are not visible when using assimp 3.1.1.

TheJosh · 2015-05-18T03:40:18Z

Hi @zapateo, I've found and fixed the bug which was breaking Assimp 3.1.1. Can you confirm that the game is now operational for you?

zapateo · 2015-05-18T07:30:34Z

@esper I'm sorry (and at the same time happy), I'm not getting the malloc() error anymore
Anyway, the games runs perfectly now! @TheJosh
In order to compile and run it on 64 bit Arch Linux, I had to:

Uninstall assimp (v. 3.1.1-1) installed via Pacman with

 # pacman -R assimp

Install the assimp library with the tool provided with the source code

./tools/linux/assimp.sh
Export the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
Compile the game

make
Export the LD_LIBRARY_PATH

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/

I'm not an experienced programmer, so maybe there is a better way to do this; anyway, I'm glad to help you with further informations or tests if you need them. Thanks a lot for the fix!

TheJosh · 2015-05-18T07:51:23Z

That is odd. You shouldn't need all those steps, in fact the installation
of assimp using pacman should now work, as that is installing the same
version of assimp as the assimp.sh script.

I might set up an Arch test VM and have a fiddle.

I'm going to make another test, I'll tell you the results very soon

zapateo · 2015-05-18T09:11:33Z

Ok, I can confirm that now it works even with Assimp installed with Pacman;
I'm so sorry, clearly I have done something wrong "playing" with libraries installation: I've tried with a clean enviroment and everything worked fine!

TheJosh · 2015-05-18T09:14:07Z

Fantastic.

You're welcome, keep on developing with love this awesome game!
