Extremely unstable framerate. #196

Hello everyone ! I recently became interested into making running games as much as possible under Linux and I discovered your ambitious project.

After.... Long... Really long times, I managed to make Xash run, with Half-Life, with the original hl.dll since my WON version wasn't shipped with the .so files. I was also unable to compile xash and I had to download it from Moddb. But this brings me to my issue. Sometime my framerate hits 60, but whenever I brutally move my mouse, it goes to 18, and sometimes 12 fps, which makes the game, unplayable. in addition the blood has a strange glitch, it keeps flashing like if it was clipping through the floor.

Strange. What OS do you run? Are you tried to Xash with system SDL2? Also, can you post screenshot with this "blood glitch"?

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

I run Slackware64 14.2 multilib enabled. How do I run xash with another SDL? I forgot to say that the blood glitch disappeared after a friend gave me his hl.so

Try use SDL that attached to tarball

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

How do I do that dude ? :)

a1batross commented 7 years ago

Use LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

So, I have to cd inside my xash directory and type LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libSDL2-2.0.so.0 ./xash.sh -dev 5 Just to make myself sure I don't do it wrong.

mittorn commented 7 years ago

Use LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. to load SDL from current directory

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

Same, the flsahing blood issue is back by the way, with and without the custom SDL

I wonder if it ain't due to a lightning problem, as my console is regularly flooded with lightstyle entries, as shown a bit in the above screenshot.

mittorn commented 7 years ago

xash3d has software lighting. When switching lightstyles, it will rebuild lightmaps

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

Well that doesn't really help me, anyway, I'll download the Windows version tonight to see if I'm facing the same problem.

mittorn commented 7 years ago

Try uncle mike's version. If it ha same performance, nothing will help. Xash3d has very slow render.

Incognito4nonymous commented 7 years ago

I tried on Windows, the issue is completely absent.
