1 June 2013 build is out.

[NaN]

This one is mostly about fixing bugs. Download (vdrift-2013-06-01.exe) as usual from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdrift/f...%20builds/

Fixes:
Normal maps handling/rendering.
DDS textures mipmap loading.
Segfault workaround (Linux/Mesa).

New:
Support multiple car files(.car) per car (directory).

sorry..."lemans_WIP" doesn't load...

here is message in log.txt

ERROR: Error loading texture file: data/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects/grass.dds
ERROR: Unsupported image formatFailed to load grass.dds from:, C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\VDrift/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects, data/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects, data/carparts, data/trackparts

[NaN]

Weird, I've just downloaded/extracted vdrift-2013-06-01.exe and lemans_WIP.rar and it loads without any problems.

[berzingue]

it says it can't load textures from

C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\VDrift/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects, data/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects

But my Vdrift is installed on D:\Vdrift\..... !

[NaN]

it says it can't load textures from

C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\VDrift/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects, data/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects

But my Vdrift is installed on D:\Vdrift\..... !

It looks in multiple paths for the data:
1. C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\VDrift/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects - this is where the updates go into.
2. data/tracks/lemans_WIP/objects - this is where the original data is expected to be, relative to vdrift.exe

Could you please try to replicate what I did.
1. Download vdrift-2013-06-01.exe. Extract it. It will create a vdrift directory.
2. Copy lemans_WIP into vdrift/data/tracks.
3. Start vdrift/vdrift.exe.

[berzingue]

Ok, I've cleaned everything about Vdrift on my computer, re-installed this new version... and now it works.
So that's nice.

[cologne-new]

Downloaded "vdrift-mac-2013-06-01.dmg" installed to applications, doesn´t start!??

Opens a windows with grey background and goes away after some seconds without further message.

What can i do???

EDIT:

Found in crash-log:"Application Specific Information:
Assertion failed: (0), function DisableShaders, file /Users/..../Documents/Development/VDrift/VDrift/vdrift/vdrift-mac/../src/graphics/graphics_gl2.cpp, line 928."

[Timo 6]

Hmm.. Sounds like a data problem - make sure you are using revision 1236 of the svn (yell if you need a hand). Also try trashing the settings (~/Library/Application Support/VDrift). If that doesn't help, it maybe I build it wrong - if it exists could you post the contents log.txt from the setting folder. I am a little bit confused why your crash log contains my username.

EDIT: OK, just doing some testing, and it's something wrong on my side - I haven't figured out what yet.
EDIT2: I'm guessing it was after https://github.com/VDrift/vdrift/commit/304cbed It seems to find some form of data folder, so start launching, then disable shaders but not be able to find the no shader file:

[antoniovazquez]

I know that you, NaN, had a see to http://vdrift.net/Forum/showthread.php?tid=1733 but it would be nice if you could run the convert tool over the png with the last libpng. That should fix the bug in Archlinux that doesn't let anyone play vdrift.

This lib should be updated in other distros soon so this will affect a lot of people. Please update this before releasing.

Thanks.

? Used "vdrift-mac-2013-06-01.dmg" in the mac downloadarea.

Also try trashing the settings (~/Library/Application Support/VDrift).

Doesn´t help!

I made a directory: /Applications/vdrift-mac-2013-06-01/data/ remains empty?!

[Timo 6]

Yeah, so you need to know what you're doing to run nightly builds atm - at some point we might sort ourselves out and get the documentation updated and make the data easier to work with.
For now, if you really want the nightly build, you need to download the data - the mac builds I provide contain no data at all. If you understand subversion, check out https://vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/svnro...drift-data otherwise go to http://vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc...rift-data/ and click Download GNU tarball near the bottom (be warned, this is something like 1.8GB). You then need to have a file structure somthing like
some/folder/VDrift.app
the/same/folder/data/
where data/ contains cars/, shaders/ etc.
I have to go now, will be back at some point tomorrow.

Hi Timo 6, recent windows builds contain a minimal data set (1 track + 1 car) to deal with this issue. People with svn can opt to use svn data by not extracting/using the included data folder.

[cologne-new]

For now, if you really want the nightly build, you need to download the data - the mac builds I provide contain no data at all. If you understand subversion, check out https://vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/svnro...drift-data otherwise go to http://vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc...rift-data/ and click Download GNU tarball near the bottom (be warned, this is something like 1.8GB). You then need to have a file structure somthing like
some/folder/VDrift.app
the/same/folder/data/
where data/ contains cars/, shaders/ etc.

Build this structure and data:

Code:

vdrift-mac-2013-06-01:
    data:
        carparts:
            ...
        cars:
            360:
                ...
            F1-02:
                ...
        settings:
            ...
        shaders:
            ...
        skins:
            ...
        textures:
            ...
        tracks:
            a1ring:
                ...
            lagunaseca:
                ...
            monaco:
                ...
            ring2007:
                ...
    VDrift.app

The dots means evereythings that was in the directory at vdrift.svn.sourceforge.net/...vdrift-data/

Now it run fine!
(Where do i find the "automaticshift"-option?)

NaN, yeah I might try playing with the build scripts to add some data, which car and track do you include? My internet connect is rubbish though, so the less I upload the better! Btw, something's not right with the sky shaders:

I think the last time I took CO and Laguna Seca. But feel free to variate them, there are a few small tracks in data to choose from.
