Unofficial Overgrowth a185, weekly build

[Anton]

Will the update be available through SUMLauncher?

The update, yes, the fix, no.

[last]

everytime I try to start a level with enemies it has an error message about the enemies paremeters. so please help me if you can

can you tell us exactly what does that error message says, or make a print screen and upload it here.

[Deadlyfluffball]

I don`t know where to put the level fix thing, I don`t have any other one in the script folder.
Oh and the new map with the sphere things turned purple...

[Domceck]

I made a little arena and fought one on one. I killed my enemy with a jump kick and broke my neck. Challenge still completed. I don't know if this is a bug or intended or has just been forgotten

Three questions: 1-How do i do the parameters thing to make the rabbits hostile and friendly. 2-Whenever i go to install the menu mod, it downloads a couple files, then says "lost conection to server try again?" and then i have to click try again over and over again to download the files. Does this happen to anyone else or is it just my bad internet connection? 3-Where to i put the file to fix the continue button? (i think i went to the right place but) i dont have /scripts under Data.

1. Select the character spawn box, by double clicking, press 'u', it's the bottom choice

2. Make sure to check the troubleshooting section of the SUMLauncher page, if you have AVG installed, you will have that issue. If you have more issues with installation, asking in that thread will get you the most help

3. are you on Mac, Win, or Linux? If you are Mac, be sure to right click on the application itself, and click "Show Package Contents" then navigate to Contents/MacOS/Data/Scripts and check there. On Windows and Linux, be sure to check in the Data folder located with the application.

thanks for replying! but i still don't know where the scripts file is. I'm on windows, i go to the search programs search bar and type "%userprofile% and the go into my doc. /wolfire/overgrowth/data and there isn't any script file, there's only skeletons and sounds...am i in the right spot?

That's not the right spot, you don't want to be in the user profile. You want to be at the actual application. By default this will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfire\Overgrowth\Data\Scripts.

The program '[Awesomium]' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'GLXBadContext'.
  (Details: serial 1066 error_code 173 request_code 160 minor_code 4)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Argh SUMlauncher is still losing connection to server when i try to install the menu mod. It loses connection every 2mb or so. I do have AVG installed but i added and exception in it for SUMlauncher and overgrowth (and i'm pretty sure i did that right) . Is it just my shitty internet or is there something else wrong?

[volcomon19]

the game is looking great guys!! one problem ive been having though is that i can load a couple of the leves from the main menu. i have a mac which probably has something to do with it. it will almost load and they say something like "unable to load textures" or something. just thought id let ya know. i cant wait to play the final product

I have a segmentation-problem as well on my linux. It works fine on Win7.

I do have to note that my graphics card uses nVidia Optimus. So either I run the game on my intel card, which gives a segmentation-error, or I run it with Ironhide which uses Virtual GL. Both have given me a few problems* before with OpenGL.

*I really mean a few. There is only 1 game I can't run. All others run very well with Ironhide.

PS I might dump more info in here. But I do not promise I will because I am lazy and will probebly forget about it.

In our experience, adding exceptions to AVG did not help fix the issue - try following the directions listed in the SUMLauncher post under "troubleshooting".
