Fixed SDLDrv.so (32.61 KB, application/octet-stream)
2003-04-26 03:08 EDT, Ryan C. Gordon

Description Milosz Tanski 2003-04-26 01:06:32 EDT 
16 bit color depth dosn't work, AA requires a 32 bit server. It will show the
splash screen and then die, with the message: "Couldn't set video mode: Couldn't
find matching GLX visual".

I tried adding Use16bit=True to [OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice], but with no effect.

Fixed SDLDrv.so

Replacement SDLDrv.so that should fix the 16-bit issue. Uncompress with
"bunzip2" and overwrite the SDLDrv.so in the game's "System" directory.
Comment 2 Ryan C. Gordon 2003-04-26 03:09:45 EDT 
Accepting bug for examination. Please try attached SDLDrv replacement.

Thanks,

With the newly posted SDLRv.so, armyops-bin loads windowed and goes into a menu,
however, it doesn't accept any mouse movements in 16-bit. I've been able to play
in 24-bit just fine so far.
Comment 4 Milosz Tanski 2003-05-02 10:57:15 EDT 
This is fixed in 1.70 and should be marked fixed.
Comment 5 Ryan C. Gordon 2003-05-02 10:59:27 EDT 
Flagging it fixed...
