To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hi everyone,
I can't start the game, it goes through the galaxy evolution sequence and then crashes with
GL_INVALID_VALUE. I'm not sure what the minimum requirements are, I'm using a P4 2.4ghz system with 4gb ram. Video card is ATI R481. OpenGL version is 2.1. OS is Ubuntu 13.10.
I've attached opengl.txt and appended the command line output Thanks for your help.

We're not 100% sure what the minimum requirements are at this point, but we know you're on the borderline. Your best bet at this point is to try the vendor drivers rather than the open-source drivers.
You can try two things.
First is opening your config.ini file and set the line "DisableEclipse=0" to "DisableEclipse=1", but if that fails to work then try the closed source AMD drivers, because although they're more of a pain to use on Linux they're much more likely to work (and are 3 times faster).
Maybe you don't have libtxc-dxtn installed? See http://pioneerwiki.com/wiki/FAQ
(The hame crashes after the loading screen. I'm using ATI free drivers on GNU/Linux)
Thanks for the help guys. The DisableEclipse line didn't help, and I already have libtxc-dxtn installed. I can't use the proprietary drivers, my card is too old. So I'll probably have to switch to an even older NVidia card 🙂 Time to buy a new PC methinks.
