Mudlet - Forum

UPDATE: Might have stumbled on to something. This time as is downloaded the map, before I hit the "ok" button I just let it sit there for about 30 seconds. Then hit the download button. Worked like a charm. Not sure if my waiting on hitting the ok button had anything to do with it but you never know. ..

So I uninstalled the old version I had of Mudlet. Erased all the settings from the .config/ file and the mudlet file and started with a fresh install of 1.2.0-pre2.

I followed the instructions to the letter and now when I hit the Map button, it will download the map. The progress bar will go away and then it will hang. It becomes un-responsive and just hangs there. I've given it up to 15 minutes (my computer is fairly good so I felt 15 minutes was being generous ) and it just hangs there. It's still using CPU and memory but it doesn't do anything (or seems to at least).

Anything I can do to help in the debugging process? I have a professional version of VS 2008 (although I'm not sure if I have the C++ project addons installed) if I can help let me know!

If you can pause the process while it hangs there and provide a backtrace, that'd be real helpful.

Mudlet is compiled with Mingw though, not msvc... so I don't think their debugger would work. You'd need to use gdb with it

I see this error when I try to start the map. I have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x86_64 freshly installed with default packages and mudlet-1.1.1-linux-x64-installer.bin and newly updated mudlet binary.

You want to install the opengl hardware drivers... if you're using nvidia, see system - administration - hardware drivers

I've gotten the map window to work, however when I join the game and try to download the map, I get this:

If you run the qt opengl demo programs that came with the sdk, do they work fine?

They seem to work properly.

Backup your profile xml files and delete ./config/mudlet/profiles/Achaea. Then import the Achaea profile I posted in the beginning of this thread.

I had this exact same problem. Waiting 30 seconds to click the button did nothing. I spent hours tearing my hair out trying to fix it.

Finally I decided to "Run as Administrator" (Win 7 Ultimate.)

No more hang, no more hog of CPU, no more crazy weird implosion. Instant map. ARggh... well at least it works.

How would I go about getting this to work on Linux 64bit?
