Please update your version to an up to date hg snapshot and test again. You can 
also test the arachnoid or glide video plugin. The version 1.99.3 had a buffer 
overflow in rice which caused different weird crashes and misbehaviors

Hi, Following the instructions in wiki/CompilingFromHg I have compiled 
mupen64plus from hg, but the number version still being 1.99.3. I have also 
tried with both plugins arachnoid and glide, getting the same result.

With Arachnoid v1.99.3 I get:

mupen64plus: main/texenvprogram.c:194: translate_source: Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted

With Glide64' v1.99.3 mupen64 crash and gives:

i915_program_error: Exceeded max nr indirect texture lookups
mupen64plus: i915_vtbl.c:333: i915_emit_state: Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted

Should I try debugging options at plugin compilation?
Is 1.99.3 the last mupen64plus version on hg?

Best,
Dante

I forget to mention that I have tried also with Rice getting the same assertion 
error.

So I would guess that it is a graphics driver issue (kernel, xorg, mesa). And 
yes, the version in hg wasn't changed to something different.

I have been testing an old version of mupen64plus, obtaining the same results. 
The interesting thing is if I disable SSE support in RicePlugin, by editing the 
file RiceVideo.cfg (deprecated in newer version?), the assertion error gets 
solved. My question is: How could I do to disable SSE in the newer mupen 
version.
Thanks,
Dante

For the 1.99.x releases, the config file can be found in the "Config File" 
folder in the location given in this wiki page:

http://code.google.com/p/mupen64plus/wiki/FileLocations

The name of the setting is the same, but it's in the '''[Video-Rice]''' section

Thanks Richard, I should read more carefully the documentation. I was also 
wrong about the SSE setting, it has nothing to do with the assertion error. The 
problem is indeed on Open GL. The assertion error disappear only when it is 
selected OGL_1.1, that is by fixing  OpenGLRenderSetting = 0 in the config file 
(mupen64plus.cfg, v1.99.3). This isn't a solution, but certainly is a 
workarround, and actually could be used to bypass this problem in certain games.
Thanks,
Dante
