hi Landeel.  "Level 1 Start"

If it's a Load issue, at least have a message "Loading" then "Ready", or simply just start

I see... But in the systems I've tested, it loads really fast.
Sometimes it wouldn't even give people time to read the "Loading" message.
Maybe a spinning wheel will do the job.

Yeah, I mean the time when it's frozen loading, and it won't start even if you press something is very short.

Try turning off full screen and pick a fixed resolution by altering yagac.conf

Nope, still nothing.

Can you run it from cmd to see if it outputs any useful message?

It doesn't say anything.  After running the exe it begins the process of loading off my hard drive then the error message pops up.  It definitely acts like a video card issue, but without any kind of runtime error checking there is no way to know for sure.

On my laptop there is Intel GMA950 256MB which is OpenGL 1.4 an it runs Y.A.G.A.C very good, however on desktop machine there is ATI Radeon 9250 128MB which is also OpenGL 1.4 and it crashes, so it must be something else...

Open yagac.bas

uncomment this:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard
'#define _osgl_debug_

comment this:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard
#define _osgl_nodebug_

compile with fbc -exx yagac.bas

run it and let's see if it will output something useful.

Well hell, it runs fine in debug mode.  Although things do slow down a lot when you grab one of the little thingies and the tone sounds.  I had a bunch of stuff open when I tried it though.  What version of fbpng were you using?  I compiled it with and older version (fbpng_v1_9_4).  I'll try it again tomorrow with the latest version.  Great game by-the-way.

I had it compiled with the latest fbpng.
Also, I have compressed it with UPX, maybe that's the cause.
Can you download UPX and test?

I compiled it again with the latest fbpng and without debug.  It works fine.  I downloaded UPX.   What command options did you use?  It's just for compressing the exec itself right, not the whole folder?

I have compressed it with

upx -9 yagac.exe

Hm, there´s another possibility. Maybe your processor doesn´t support SSE2.
Try compiling with

fbc -fpu sse -fpmode fast yagac.bas

I never got around to trying UPX, but it definitely doesn't support SSE2.  If that was part of the original build then I think it was probably the culprit since that new build did the same thing as the original.  Looks like we found it.   Cool
