Do I forget any info ?

And I run it all on max settings without any problems, even have the sound working with some odd quirks.
But as I mentioned earlier, I run in 32bit mode.

whatver you got it is obviously contagious
today i started crashing, with no aperant reason whatsoever..
what finaly seemed to lick it was
renaming the save folder so that it got recreated, i lost my interface settiings , markers, macros, keybindings that way, but it worked.
Just to figure out what *exactly* made it crash i copied the interace and key files back one by one... it still works, so i am as clueless as when i started.... expect ofcourse that the operation actually fixed the crashes...

What wine version(s) are you using, Thgemini and Zyrom?

Gee I was just on the Cedega and Suse sites and I thought I'd come here and ask about a Linux client for Ryzom and I saw your thread.
Excellent work. I was wondering whethar Ryzom would work with Cedega but now I am more confident that it will (although has anyone tried it with an ATi card?)
Anyway when you say post a ticket requesting a linux client what do you mean? in game or a link on the site? Please let me know so I can add my voice.
Ryzom is already quickly becoming my favourite MMORPG and a linux client would just seal the deal.

to katriell: wine-0.9.17-1
to gonesolo: Ryzom does no longer work with cedega, if you look a bit up in this thread you will find a discussion about that, but shortly, ryzom uses a MS specific form of threads called fibers, that cedga does not support (but wine does), and cedega will probably not support it until Ryzom has more customers than WoW and transgaming can see a wast economicall incentive to put some effort into it.
A native linux client was once envisioned by Nevrax, but their economic situation being as it is, the chances of that happening any time soon is very slim indeed ( where soon is counted in years), they haven't even bothered to fix the fiber issue, even though it seems that there is a fix for it.
Historically Nvidia has been the preferred graphics card for linux users since it actually has OGL drivers that works, something ATI is still lacking even though it seems that ATI is doing an effort...

Hey, I'm trying to get this going in the latest version of wine. When running it I get this error:
INF c dru.cpp 80 client_ryzom_rd.exe : Using the library 'nel_drv_opengl_win' that is in the directory: 'nel_drv_opengl_win_rd.dll'
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
Serial number of failed request: 756
and then it promptly crashes. anyone have some clues on how to help me? I'm running Ubuntu 6.06 with an AMD 64 3700+, 2 gb ram, Geforce 6800 GS.

I am running Wine 0.9.17
BTW, I tried what Zyrom suggested about the Save folder that I deleted entirely, but I didn't have more success
. Well now to carry on my tests, I managed to play without any crash for 10 minutes in Windowed mode, 1024*768, with graphical details to low. At least I know I can play
EDIT : I just tried full screen, still with the low graphical details, and I could play normally as well, although it's a bit slow. It's amazing as with Windows I can play with all the graphics full and yet it's perfectly fluid. Yet I'm in progress as I can play full screen
PvP, FvF and GvG won't be for me though if I lag that much when there is no one
But I'm not satisfied yet with that and I'll carry on the investigations. Stay tuned !
And thanks to all you guys who did your best to help me out.
EDIT BIS : ooooooo no ! Although I applied the corrective, I still have the problem that if I press the ALT key for exemple, then I will say a lot of garbage in the chat window
Here is the shell script I use to start the game :
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
# Se positionne dans le répertoire du jeu
cd /var/ftp/pub/jeux/Ryzom
# Contournement d'un bug : empêche les touches CTRL, ALT, SHIFT de générer de la pollution
# dans le fenêtre de chat lorsque celles-ci sont pressées
SETREPEAT="50 37 64 62 109 113"
for k in $SETREPEAT; do
xset r $k
echo "Réglage de la touche : $k"
done
# Lance l'exécutable de Ryzom
wine client_ryzom_rd.exe
Did I miss anything ?

What was that echo for?

i have found that you need to do a:
export LANG=en_US
before the xset for it to be effective
so my shell script looks like:
Code: Select all
nvidia-settings -l
export LANG=en_US
for k in 23 50 62 37 109 64 113 115 116 117 ; do xset r $k; done
./client_ryzom_rd.exe &
btw, are u sure that you are using the Nvidia GLX extensions ? yo can check it with
or use glxgears to check the framreate
