Ladro Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Hello! I have to say that TDM it's even a LOT BETTER then what i expected! You guys made an INCREDIBLE work, really really thanks! :laugh: That said (it will be never enough!), i have a little problem: as described in subject, when I install a news mission from the main menu, and the Mod exit and restart automatically, after the qwuick restart i have no sound at all. Of course if i quit and re-enter in the TDM, the sound works and the mission is well installed, so i can play without any problem, but i think maybe this a little bug to track :-) My configuration: Ubuntu 9.04 - 32 bit - no Pulse audio - Athlon X2 @3Ghz, 4 GB DDR2, ATI HD2600 with latest proprietary Catalyst driver, etc etc.. Any suggestion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeatherMan Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I've played TDM on Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04 32bit and 64bit, as well as under Mandriva 2009.1 32bit and 64bit, and can't remember ever having that issue. I've had other sound issues (which is why I am on Mandriva currently), but none caused by TDM. One thing you could do is after the restart and you have no sound, bring up the console (tilde key) and scroll up (mousewheel) till you see the error messages related to ALSA, and see if that helps. If you can't figure out the messages post it here and we'll try to help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peispud Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I can confirm the same issue, but it has went away. I will try to reproduce it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the error from Doom3 console on reload: Warning: CVar 's_driver' declared multiple times with different initial value Then a list of about 10-20 sounds with error, a list the first one the others are the same: Warning: file def/weapon_pistol2.def, line 103: entity def 'weapon_pistol' previously defined at def/weapon_pistol :48 I hope it can helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeatherMan Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I get those same Warnings about s_driver, and sound works fine here. Can you post the info about dlopen(libasound....). See mine below for reference. You can use the conDump command in the console to dump the console output to a text file (eg, conDump nosound.txt). You will find the file in the directory of the currently installed FM. dlopen(libasound.so.2) asoundlib version: 1.0.19 Alsa is available ------ Alsa Sound Initialization ----- opened Alsa PCM device default for playback device buffer size: 5461 frames ( 21844 bytes ) allocated a mix buffer of 16384 bytes peispud, you wouldn't by chance be running Doom 3 with wine or Cedega, would you? Ladro, are you using Steam as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladro Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) I get those same Warnings about s_driver, and sound works fine here. Can you post the info about dlopen(libasound....). This is shell log on reloading darkmod (when the program install a new mission and he reload the global mod automatically) and the sound stop working : dlopen(libasound.so.2) asoundlib version: 1.0.18 Alsa is available ------ Alsa Sound Initialization ----- ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave snd_pcm_open SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK 'default' failed: Device or resource busy dlclose WARNING: sound subsystem disabled -------------------------------------- ----------- Alsa Shutdown ------------ -------------------------------------- As said, if i launch the mod from scratch, the sound is working perfectly, only if i install new mission he stops (on reloading automatically the mod). peispud, you wouldn't by chance be running Doom 3 with wine or Cedega, would you? Ladro, are you using Steam as well? No, i'm not using Steam, never installed. I use native Doom3 X86, latest client. I'm seeing other minor bugs on the general mod, like system's video gamma settings and mouse sensibility settings not restored correctly on exit from TDM. I open a new thread for this or it's not necessary? Anyway, thanks a lot for your support, i LOVE TDM, it's incredible how cool it is!

LeatherMan Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 snd_pcm_open SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK 'default' failed: Device or resource busy Definitely not a TDM problem, it sounds like the sound driver hasn't fully released from the previous run. I wonder if it would be possible to insert a longer delay between restarts? greebo? Tels? Anyone? Also, I've noticed several ATI graphics card users having sound issues, and I'm wondering if the graphics driver is partly (if not fully) to blame. A quick search tells me that ATI does have the Catalyst AI in the linux drivers, so if it's running try turning that off and see if it helps (it does help turning it off under Windows). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it would be possible to insert a longer delay between restarts? greebo? Tels? Anyone? I think too it's a delay problem or somthing with the release of the sound device subsystem, because, as said, the first launch of TDM works flawlessy. The problem is coming *only* o installing new mission, after the automatic relaunch of TDM. A quick search tells me that ATI does have the Catalyst AI in the linux drivers, so if it's running try turning that off and see if it helps (it does help turning it off under Windows). I just opened a thread about that :-) Turning off the A.I. in Catalyst for Linux, solved any Graphic problem for me (now water effect works, i'm very happy!). Also the loading time of the mission it's dramatically shorter now But the sound problem on Mission installing, remain Edited October 20, 2009 by Ladro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greebo Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 There is no custom delay possible right now - but just quitting and restarting Doom 3 manually should do the trick as well, shouldn't it? The FM stays installed when using tdmlauncher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FM stays installed when using tdmlauncher. Yeah but he said that already and the manual restart is very cumbersome. Just for the record, I got the same issue, but never thought of reporting it before. For me a d3 restart is always painful, because on exit it forgets to reset the screen, so I need to CTRL+ALT+PLUS to get it back to the normal resolution (and sometimes it even "forgets" the mouse). So adding a 1second or so delay to tdm_launcher would probably make us happy. 1 Quote "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

In fact it's not a terrible issue, but just annoing e rude to exit and re-enter on the mod just to make sound working. Rather then that, I hope in the far future to make a more subtle mission installer that do not need to exit from the game and re-enter, or, at least, to make an image/video loading that cover this re-start. Anyway I can play TDM so i'm already very very happy! ;-) Thanks Greebo for you super cool work on coding ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greebo Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 You can report that issue on our bugtracker, and maybe I can consider putting an optional delay in for the first update. And, er, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was "ladro", but the mail registration was never sent to me, i don't know why (my e-mail it's working 100%, maybe the send-server it's blocked as spam, i don't know) :-( So i created a new username, yes it's "TDM_tracker", and now it works :-) You can delete "ladro" account, if you want.

greebo Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 This issue will be resolved in TDM 1.01. You'll be able to specify an optional delay between restarts by setting the console variable tdm_fm_restart_delay. TDMLauncher will receive this value as command line argument and will sleep before launching another process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
