Title: DigitalPaint in Jake2
Post by: TinMan on January 27, 2006, 05:46:39 PM

I was wondering if anyone has gotten dp2 to run within Jake2, I've been trying with not that much luck.

I'm curious as to why you're trying to run it in jake2 in the first place.  Do you not have an x86 processor or something?  I'm not sure how jake2 handles mods, but I doubt it would work with a natively compiled library.

I'm trying to run DPBall2 on an old x86 laptop that will run Quake2 and DPB2, but runs them with a refresh rate that's horrible and everything reacts slow (sound is slow as is mouse movement), yet Jake2 runs fine on it.

Stupid linux...  not to flame, but that OS is a pain in the butt to develop for.  Everybody has a different problem.  What distro are you using?

Ubuntu, based off of Debian, with the new kernel.

Strange.  It's worked fine in debian for Fryth and me.  Perhaps Ubuntu has changed some things in relation to sound and input.  Quake2 and PB2 use some deprecated features, such as OSS and DGA mouse input.  You might be able to configure those on your distro, though, and get it to work in an acceptable fashion.  I'll be rewriting that code sooner or later to be more compatible.

Thank you!  ;D
Kinda strange that I can run Quake III Arena with no problems and DPBall2 runs laggy, lol

nvm, runs on my other box running Ubuntu and nVidia, the laptop has an ATI w/ horrible support and OpenGL on it was the problem.

I did find a bug though, the funnames makes three of whatever letter you click, so if I were to click pink and then click "T", the box would show 3 T's.

Stupid linux... Guess I'll have to install Ubuntu and figure out what's going on.
