Curiouser and curiouser. I’d still like to see Oolite’s [rendering.opengl.extensions] output to see if it differs.

@Ahruman - I hope this is what you wanted from Latest.log (everybody's help with this is much appreciated).
Is it me or does there appear to be a discrepancy between what is in glxinfo and Latest.log over this GL_ARB_shading_language_100 file?

I have full shaders again!!!!!Getafix wrote:If you mean that you had shaders with 1.72, then please do the following
If this still does not fix your shaders issue, then install Oolite1.72 again, and post the result.Code: Select all
sudo rm /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite-deps/lib/libGL*
I have PM you the setup in case you do not have it.

Hooray!
Any explanation of exactly what happened - just curious!!
EDIT: Better half is hovering - she wants to do important RL stuff again. More later...

In point of fact, there are 38 extensions missing in Oolite’s list. (I haven’t bothered to identify them all, but they include two others related to shader support.) I’m also curious about Getafix’s explanation. :-)DaddyHoggy wrote:Is it me or does there appear to be a discrepancy between what is in glxinfo and Latest.log over this GL_ARB_shading_language_100 file?

Three libraries were missing from the package,
while three other should not be in the package.
The issue with Daddy's shaders, was caused by the libGL and
libGLU libraries which came from my system and were depending
on my graphics card.
I have prepared the correct package. I decided to call it
"oolite-1.72.2.x86.v2.package" to distinguish it from the one already released.
It has been successfully tested on clean installations of Ubuntu 8.04 and 7.10.
I will PM Ahruman the url from where he can retrieve the new package.

M’kay, but for reference, you’re authorized to make releases yourself. This is good because it saves me the fiddling. ;-)

This is just to point out that as soon as "oolite-1.72.2.x86.v2.package" is made
available, you should install it, even if the first version, seemed to work fine.
The first version will be automatically be removed by autopackage.
My apologies for all the inconvenience and the confusion caused.

If this is resolved, please, edit your first post subject to "shaders not available... (SOLVED)".

It would seem that I do not have to. How is the new power?

Wonderful thing Fantasia - that and the Blue Danube from 2001 introduced me to Classical music - and then I discovered my dad had a fantastic collection of LPs - loved the classics ever since.

I'm having same problem as DaddyHoggy; the Shaders option line is greyed out. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and Oolite 1.73.4-0. Here's the relevant output:
Hope this kind of thread necromancy is okay here.
Does this mean I won't be able to get full shaders? It's still prettier than 1.65, but I'd love to be able to get all those lovely lighting effects.rachel@rachel-desktop:/usr/lib$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce3/AGP/SSE2
OpenGL version string: 1.5.8 NVIDIA 96.43.05
OpenGL extensions:
rachel@rachel-desktop:/usr/lib$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
Hope this kind of thread necromancy is okay here.
