BruceJohnJenner Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Hello, I recently acquired a new pc to tide me by for basic tasks for a while, and it ended up being pretty old, a Thinkpad x60s with 2Gigs DDR2 ram and a core duo processor at something like 1.66 Ghz. I understand that this is very, very old hardware, but I figured it might still be relevant information, given that the machine was released in 2006, so JK3 should have been able to run on it. I am building on Lubuntu 15.04, i386. The build process was smooth, copied over the assets to the appropriate folder and started up. Already, at least one thing is behaving oddly in the menu: In the character selection screen I see something like this: And ingame looks something like this, I piped the console output from the game to a text file, the contents of which are here: OpenJK: v1.0.1.1 linux-i386 Jun 20 2015 Initialising zone memory ..... ----- FS_Startup ----- Current search path: /home/bruce/.local/share/openjk/base ./base/assets3.pk3 (16 files) ./base/assets2.pk3 (62 files) ./base/assets1.pk3 (8320 files) ./base/assets0.pk3 (15346 files) ./base ---------------------- 23744 files in pk3 files execing default.cfg execing openjk_sp.cfg couldn't exec autoexec_sp.cfg Running Jedi Academy Mode ----- Client Initialization ----- ----- Initializing Renderer ---- Trying to load "rdsp-vanilla_i386.so" from "."... ------------------------------- ----- Client Initialization Complete ----- --- Common Initialization Complete --- SDL using driver "x11" Initializing OpenGL display Display aspect: 1.333 ...setting mode 4: 800 600 Using 24 color bits, 24 depth, 8 stencil display.

It looks an awful lot like one of the libpng/libjpeg might not be working correctly, given that the meshes are visible, just no textures on certain things? </wildspeculation>

BruceJohnJenner Posted June 21, 2015 Author Posted June 21, 2015 Try r_ext_compress_textures 0, texture compression tends to have some issues with various Linux drivers.That a cvar or a build flag of some sort?
Raz0r Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Cvar. You can set it at startup, or during runtime followed by a vid_restart command. BruceJohnJenner likes this
BruceJohnJenner Posted June 21, 2015 Author Posted June 21, 2015 Cvar. You can set it at startup, or during runtime followed by a vid_restart command. Yep, that fixed the issues. Now I have it running at ~25 fps, which is good enough for me. Funny enough, the setting that made the biggest difference performance wise was switching the texture filter setting to bilinear, that gained a whole 10 fps and removed most of the jerkiness. I had a pair of segfaults trying to reload video settings, but I cant seem to reliably reproduce them. I will open an issue for it if I can eventually reproduce. Thanks
Circa Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 I ran JKA on a machine 4 years older than that with worse specs with decent results, so yeah, shouldn't be too horrible. BruceJohnJenner likes this
