Darkplaces - OpenGL shader anomaly?

[dayfive]

Hi Inside3d/Engine Coding,

I recently recompiled Darkplaces for my Linux box after updating to a more recent kernel. Before the update, Darkplaces was running fine and looking nice. Now however, I seem to have encountered a strange anomaly - possibly related to OpenGL 2.0 shaders...

Basically, when I run the game it seems like I'm in the fricking matrix! (it's actually kinda cool) but I can't really see the monsters. I thought it was something I did wrong, except when I do

Code: Select all

r_fullbright 1


It looks somewhat normal again!! Can someone possibly offer any hints as to what might be both the cause and solution to this curious problem? I'd greatly appreciate it!

Here are some screenies:

Vanilla Darkplaces, no special settings


Darkplaces with r_fullbright 1


since there's no ./configure mechanism only a makefile - is there any special way to disable OpenGL 2.0 shaders??

Here's the relevant console output

Thanks in advance for any insight into this

r_glsl 0

r_glsl 0

I tried that just now and it still looks all borked and matrixey

Thanks for the suggestion though!

You'll likely need gl_combine 0 as well...

At least I think that's what the variable is called. Check the autocomplete for r_ and gl_ first.

Thanks! That fixes it. Added these two lines to the autoexec.cfg.

Thanks Lardarse and Sajt
