OSX Leopard 10.5 - hud in wrong place

For those apple users who are now running leopard you may be seeing this:

http://www.hillrippers.ch/temp/SauerOnLeopard.jpg

i.e. with the hud in a weird place, odd startup/progress screens, and in addition a few subtle bugs related to occlusion culling.

The current solution (until whenever the next Sauer release) is as follows:

Go to the "/sauerbraten/data/" folder and edit "std_shader.cfg" (with textedit will do)

Starting at about line 8 in this file is:

vpstart = [
!!ARBvp1.0
OPTION ARB_position_invariant;
ATTRIB opos = vertex.position;
]

Replace the above with the following:

vpstart = [
!!ARBvp1.0
ATTRIB opos = vertex.position;
OUTPUT rpos = result.position;
DP4 rpos.x, state.matrix.mvp.row[0], opos;
DP4 rpos.y, state.matrix.mvp.row[1], opos;
DP4 rpos.z, state.matrix.mvp.row[2], opos;
DP4 rpos.w, state.matrix.mvp.row[3], opos;
]

-
If people running leopard can confirm/deny that they have the bug, and if so that this fixes it then that would be useful (provide system specs).

Thats very weird - the mac launcher automatically requests 24bit precision z-buffer, because experience has shown that ATI on mac likes to be dumb and pick 16.

Can I confirm that this is on leopard (and not on tiger) - it would be best to keep this thread on-topic and about leopard issues for now...

His HUD is off-place like it was for me, so I guess this is Leopard.

Ok, after some testing I also get the problem with z-precision - but only if I play *without* the bug fix as outlined at the start of this thread.

i have found that in the release version, if you turn off shaders, the hud goes into the correct place.

#20: Doesn't start at ALL in Leopard

by blotner on 11/09/2007 23:58

It starts, seems to load into mtl4 or that first map, and it just stays at the very last stage, stuck at the word, mtl4. I have a pb 1.5ghz aluminum, 1 gig ram

Leopard just doesn't seem that stable, which is pretty unusual for Apple. There are a lot of reports of machines locking up and having a lot of glitches during installation, including the BSoD. I doubt that the rest of it is much more stable than that.

Wait for awhile - Apple is very good about ironing out glitches.

you must not have been here during 10.4.0, that was a LOT worse.

try setyting 'envmapsize' to a lower value in your autoexec.cfg

"There are a lot of reports of machines locking up and having a lot of glitches during installation, including the BSoD."

That _only_ happens to people who have APE installed, which is a haxie.
Leopard is very stable for me, no crashes so far.

A-Baby_Rabbit: Thanks for mentioning that. I originally didn't change my stdshader.cfg because the misplaced text wasn't bothering me, but it also fixed the z-buffer problem.

Acord: By BSoD, I really hope you mean

"Light grey screen with wipe-down transition into dark grey screen with multilingual restart message in rounded rectangle of death"

A BSoD does not have to be literally that. It's more of a spirit-of-the-thing term now. So, I think he meant BSoD. ;)

I wonder how the BSoD has evolved over time, and where it's going next?
