[Solved] Sound Absent

[Thargoid]

If there's nothing in latest.log then you may be against a deeper bug than that. But if it helps, post the plists up in code tags and I'll have a look at them if you want.

The AI will be different on the final release, and I only used "trader" as a role to keep from being attacked by every ship around while I tested.

[Thargoid]

The things I can see:

• Exhausts - they should have 6 items per exhaust (X/Y/Z position and X/Y/Z dimensions, although the Z ones is clamped 0 to 1) whereas yours only have 3 items.
• ".0x" in sub-ents (phase, frequency) - some of your numbers are ".0" or ".02" or similar. Not sure if that will make things choke or not - but would be nicer to have 0.0 and 0.02 etc to make sure.
• Subentity positions - they should be in the (x, y, z); format, not "x y z";

Not sure if those will work or not (especially the last one) as alternative format, but I'm going by some of my OXPs and the format used in the trunk shipdata.plist. May or may not be the cause of your problem, but give them a go and see if it helps.[/color]

[mandoman]

Well, I tried all your suggestions, Thargoid, but it seems as if the thing is shutting down faster than ever, though I don't think it has anything to do with the changes you suggested. Before I installed Mint Mate 17, it wasn't shutting down on me when I took the MTBlackJack out for tests. It's only since I installed Mint 17. Also, I finally got a fairly good graphics card, and installed it. It's a GeForce 9800 GTX. I got it so I could play some of the Star Wars games that were released for PCs. In fact, that's kind of what this whole computer is for, though I've found using the Mint Mate drive the one I like best.

Anyway, I wonder if there is a bug, or conflict going on in this version of Mint, and Oolite. I don't know that the graphics card has anything to do with it, and I have it set up with the latest drivers recommended by NVidia for Linux. Should I file a bug report on this?

[mandoman]

I can't get Oolite to work on this computer, with Mint 17 Mate. It shuts down before I can even launch from any station. Anyone have any ideas?

[Diziet Sma]

I can't get Oolite to work on this computer, with Mint 17 Mate. It shuts down before I can even launch from any station. Anyone have any ideas?

Just to be clear.. this only happens with the MTBlackJack, or it's now happening no matter which ship you're using?

[mandoman]

That's right, it happens no matter what ship I try. Sometimes it shuts down right when I sellect which commander (ship) I intend to use.

[Getafix]

@mandoman

Does this happen even when executing Oolite without any OXP too?
If yes, please, remove all OXPs, execute Oolite and then post the Latest.log here.

[mandoman]

Okay, it worked perfectly without the oxps, and just my Jameson ship. Here is Latest.log.

I don't get it, though. This machine is much faster, with more RAM, and a far better video card than my Inspiron, but the Inspiron has no trouble running the game. I have Mint 17 Mate on it as well.

[Diziet Sma]

Okay, it worked perfectly without the oxps, and just my Jameson ship.

So it's an OXP.

Time for the binary method of finding the culprit, methinks.

[Getafix]

I don't get it, though...

We neither , however, following Diziet's suggestion to start excluding OXP's, will give us a clue to start working with... maybe!

[mandoman]

Okay, I'll start adding one back in at a time. Thanks.

[Diziet Sma]

Okay, I'll start adding one back in at a time. Thanks.

See the link I posted above about the binary method of testing OXPs.. it will be a LOT faster than doing it one at a time..

[mandoman]

Oh, sorry, I didn't understand to what you referring. It's almost too late now, as I've tested all of the non-ship oxps, and all is running well. Then I stuck the MTBlackJack in to see if it triggered anything, and that was a big negative. It worked beautifully, except I can't seem to get the aft laser to fire, from any angle.

I do have all the rest of the ship oxps, though, so I'll try that binary method with them. Tnanks Diziet Sma.

[Diziet Sma]

Tnanks Diziet Sma.

Just 'Dizzy' will do fine.. no need to be all formal, mate..
