Kirit · Post by **Kirit** » March 22nd, 2006, 11:15 pm

I was just on the MP-Server and noticed something that never occured before.
Many little black Triangles appeared on the screen, mainly next to the names in the chatlines and at the end of the chatlines.
Also: the damage numbers leave a trail. sometimes red, sometimes black and sometimes both.

Im under Mac OS X 10.4.5 with Wesnoth v1.1.2

here is a screenshot of what i meant. anyone else getting this problem?

I get that too. No one in #wesnoth-dev can replicate it.

Edit:
I get that too in single player. No one in #wesnoth-dev can replicate it.

I was in this game

None of the player seemed to have this bug, but at least 2 observers had it.
Maybe it is related to observers ?

(me had Linux)

one player had this too. Loky or so. He was under OS X as well.

seems to be an OS-related problem...

Maybe it's related to the SDL libraries in my build (cvs version compiled for universal binary). Does someone see the same glich with a home compiled version?

I've been getting similar glitches from HP numbers for months in my home compiled version. Mac Os 10.4.5 (and earlier)

i hadn't noticed the glitches on the left until recently, but i seldome play MP.

I am having the same probs on my mac. These probs are there for months already. I don't know when it was introduced nor do i know what could cause it. But I definatly know that it was there pre 10.4.5 already. Probably related to probs with SDL.

I have it too, using Iwa's build. I'm on 10.3.9. I did NOT have using Iwa's build of 1.1.1 or 1.0.2, though. For me it's new with 1.1.2.

But SDL hasn't ever been updated.

I can see similar effects on the main menu page (at the end of the explanations of the menu items at the bottom of the screen) and with HP indicators as they float away. It was not there in 1.1.1 and is there in 1.1.2, both were running under 10.4.5.

Having those glitches on OS X 10.4.5 since 1.1.2 (they also happen in 1.1.2a). Never had them in prior versions. They are some pixels left over from the red hitpoints moving up from the attacked.

The error disappears if you change from fullscreen to windowed or vice versa.

When I start the game fullscreen, the glitches are there. Pressing cmd-F going into windowed, the error is gone. And it never comes back, no matter if I switch back to fullscreen, start a new round or whatever.

To make the glitches appear again, I have to close and restart BFW. Doesn't matter if I start in fullscreen or windowed, though. The change between these two makes the glitches go away for as long as BFW is running.
