Development versions (2.11)

[lowenz]

"Added r_fboScaling cvar which allows to change Render scale filtering to nearest."

It works really well, performance on par with setting the equivalent resolution in the same scene (1280x120 vs 2560x1440 with 0.5 scaling and nearest filtering) without needing to force the integer upscaling in the drivers (sharper image than bilinear/bicubic for who prefers the blocky look)

Yes, @nbohr1more has them too.

My libjpeg-dev version is the latest available, 8c-2ubuntu8.

TDM does not use system libraries so your version should not matter.

I did not have this problem in dev16481-9881.

That's very strange: the changes in libjpeg first appeared in dev16481-9881, so the same problem should happen on that build too.

I'm now getting errors looking like this when I try to save a game:

WARNING:LibJPEG: JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 584, caller expects 568
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The save game itself gets written and loads without issue, but it has no preview thumbnail.

Fixed libjpeg in trunk.

You might want to change r_screenshot_format to avoid using jpeg for savegame screenshots.
Although it won't help you if someone uses jpeg file in texture or as SEED map.

Is this not only an issue with writing jpgs? Texture is loading if I'm correct.

Hmmmm.  Just switched to the latest beta dev16485-9903 (from the previous one, dev16481-9881 ) and restarted the mission I was playing (Iris ... what an amazing mission, very happy to start from the top again, even though I'm only halfway through!), first thing I do is create a save game ... and bang! down it goes.

Nothing in the console log:

Changed location from '' to 'location_home'.
Switching to EFX 'location_home' (#15)
The ambient 'snd_home' (solitude_loop_z) for location 'location_home' is now playing.
The ambient 'snd_home' (solitude_loop_z) for location 'location_home' is now playing.
WARNING:LibJPEG: JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 584, caller expects 568

There was a very long pause before it crashed.

Will try again ... well, that was interesting, looks as if the saved game was good.  However, played for a little, hit F4 and ... hangs and crashes again, messages as before.  That's a shame.

Ah!  Looks like the conversation above covers this very issue.  Will go back to the previous beta for now.

Edit: Yes, can confirm that -9881 works and -9903 crashes when saving the game.

Got versions the wrong way around!

I had a similar crash in 2.10 with the save room saving in Hazard Pay. But maybe it is unrelated.

I have the same. It also happens when making a screenshot.

JPEG saving and loading crashes on Linux. Setting r_screenshot_format to "png" may help...

It works for creating screenshots. Saving still crashes to desktop.

[stgatilov]

dev16487-9919 is public.

At the very least, the Linux crash should be fixed there.

Is the latest version (2.10) backwards compatible with older missions?

If it wasn't I imagine panic would ensue, as this would be equivalent to starting from scratch and most FM's would be lost forever only playable on archived versions of TDM.

It applies to all dev builds I think.
I have added it to changelog as "known problem".

Please can we have some attention to the current disconnect between the stealth score and the guard alert level and discovery status for the new release?
