Vdrift crashes on start

[Gromescu]

I'm using Mandriva 2009.0 RC1. When I install vdrift from repository and run it I have this error^

Code:

I've also tried to build it from source, but no success:

Code:

Of cause I compiled Bullet before and have 2 files in out/linuxx86/optimize/libs

Any suggestions?

It looks like there's some kind of mismatch with your bullet libraries and vdrift, both with the vdrift from repository and when you try to build from source. VDrift source comes with a version of bullet that you should use... it may be that you also have a different version installed that isn't compatible. Could you try removing all bullet installations from your system, then compiling the bullet that comes with the vdrift source, then compiling vdrift from source?

[Gromescu]

I deleted bullet from repo and now vdrift builds and installs. But when I run it it crashes with

Code:

EXCEPTION: src/textures.cpp, line 489:  Error loading texture file: skins/simple/textures/widgets/tab_page_background.png (/usr/share/games/vdrift/data/skins/simple/textures/widgets/tab_page_background.png)

Еру source code is from here

[joevenzon]

I'm not entirely sure that the "scons install" process is up to date; it might miss some of the data files. Does the file (/usr/share/games/vdrift/data/skins/simple/textures/widgets/tab_page_background.png) exist? If not, try moving the entire data folder from the tar.bz2 over to your /usr/share/games/vdrift folder and see if that fixes it.

I have a similar problem on Vista. the cmd says that

Code:

c:\Programs\VDrift\VDrift.exe
Found config file C:\Users\Kaoru/.vdrift/controls.config.
Found config file C:\Users\Kaoru/.vdrift/VDrift.config.
version of game: 2008-08-05-full
skin file not found in config file...

Solved ^ ^" it was a shaders = on in the VDrift.config. Not it run with low quality , but i think i will fix it
