Linux 118: Black screen and CTD upon start [RESOLVED]

Post by Jay_H »

116 worked for me, but 118 is inoperable. Opening the executable leads only to some garbled graphics and then a black screen. If I click around to get to "Play," the graphics garble up again and give me another black screen. The program crashes to desktop within about 10 seconds.

The only relevant thing I find in player log is this:

Code: Select all

DFTFU 1.7.4: Could not locate TextManager GameObject instance in scene!
But I've uploaded the whole thing here anyway. http://pastebin.com/Uq0riNcy

This is probably related to retargeted UI setup I introduced as part of VR support in UI. This is a power user addition and likely problematic on lower end GPUs like the Mullins.

Don't worry though, I'm going to make optional next builds. If that's all it is, things should be back to normal soon. :)

Jay, running new builds now with a reversion for default UI back to how things were done in #116. These will be up in around 30 minutes or so.

If this doesn't fix problem then something else is going on and we'll need to dig a bit deeper.

Excellent! Thanks for the quick response. I was wondering if I was going on furlough :lol: I'll give it a shot and reply again.
