5.1 source?

Harry · January 24th, 2007, 03:00 PM

I had this same problem, but at one point, Snowberry wouldn't even load up. I know it wasn't because I upgraded from Beta 5, because I eventually I uninstalled it completely and then reinstalled Beta 5.1 and it still didn't work.

Harry · January 24th, 2007, 03:08 PM

Yeah I did the same..I was looking dead forward to having custom music again in jDoom

drewdewd · January 24th, 2007, 03:24 PM

Me too! Except for I STILL can't get the Ashley Carr music packs to work (even on Beta 4), even after that extensive conversation Lorcan and I had. Harry, do you use a different music pack than Ashley Carrs? If you do, do you wanna throw the name of it my way?

Harry · January 24th, 2007, 03:26 PM

I cant remember the author of this one I have, sorry.

drewdewd · January 24th, 2007, 03:30 PM

Thats alright.
Well, I better research the different music packs, because Ashley Carr's is wonky.
But about the 5.1 problem, Ive tried alot of things and I can't find the problem.

hawkwind2 · January 24th, 2007, 03:55 PM

Beta 5.1 does indeed run but ...

... for me under Snowberry- Tools-Preferences-Quit when game launched, when selected, the frontend does quit, but the game is minimised, whether in fullscreen or windowed mode. When pressing Play the user expects to go straight to the game, not a minimised application.

This has been an ongoing problem with snowberry for me.

drewdewd · January 24th, 2007, 04:04 PM

So what did you say I must do to make it work, Hawkwind?

Iron-Lion · January 24th, 2007, 05:11 PM

What is the difference from 5 to 5.1?

KuriKai · January 24th, 2007, 05:45 PM

Iron-Lion: use your eyes and READ!

Dream · January 24th, 2007, 06:42 PM

Same problem here. Frontend loads, but when you click PLAY it will say launching for several seconds but the game never loads.

Are you just asking about the source in general?

If ever theres a release without a coinciding source snapshot, just use the svn repository. Technically, it should have less bugs, because I wail like a baby when DaniJ breaks it...

Dream · January 24th, 2007, 11:19 PM

Is anyone else having the problem I mentioned earlier?

DaniJ · January 25th, 2007, 02:41 AM

I've just tried installing the released 1.9.0-beta5.1 packages in both "upgrade" (install over existing beta5) and installing fresh under Win32 and each time I had no problems (regardless of the setting of "Quit when launched").

Obviously we'll have to investigate further. What OS are the people who are having problems running?

I just did an upgrade from beta 5.

@Dani J666 - When "Quit when Launched" is selected, should the game automatically be minimised to the toolbar? , since that is what happens for me, then I have to click the minimised game in the toolbar to bring the game up up either in windowed or full screen mode to play.

I use WinXP Pro SR2.

No that should not happen, the game should not be minimized after clicking play (regardless of the status of "Quit when Launched").

Dream · January 25th, 2007, 08:49 AM

I am running WinXP

It's like Jdoom simply wont start up at all. I even have tried several times going back to 5.0 and 5.0 works. I hope you can figure it out.
