Can't start on remote desktop #17

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Steps:
1. have a windows computer
2. connect to it with remote desktop
3. start the program

Program should start but instead you get "program stopped working".

Version 528 on 64bit Win7 (previous release did it too)

Stack trace is no good - there are no symbols and it runs on wow64.
Depwalker log says the last function loaded is:

GetProcAddress(0x6F8E0000 [OPENGL32.DLL], "wglGetPixelFormat") called from 
"GDI32.DLL" at address 0x763E5876 and returned 0x6F9255E8.
Second chance exception 0xC0000005 (Access Violation) occurred at address 
0x736AC9F1.

These are loads though, so it might only *help guess* where the crash happens. 
I'm sorry I can't give you anything more...

Overall the issue is not really important - who would play over remote desktop. 
But the part where the program fails to diagnose "hostile" environment could be 
worse?

Agree with low priority, doubt it can be fixed, but an error message would be 
nice.

After some more testing it seems this might happen when 3d acceleration is not 
available...

Yep, makes sense. Throwing an error because it can't get an OpenGL driver. 
Error handling will be tricky...I'm not sure if I can bring up a windows dialog 
in an SDL context.

It's possible that the fallback driver doesn't support a method Xenowar is 
using, which would be an easier fix.

How many other 3d games can you play via RDP?  This game doesn't need admin 
rights... Just copy it to your machine?
