GCC 4.4.x - 4.5.0 fix by Plagman

r1624: %esi gets modified by swapchar2 but isn't listed as an output operand for the GCC extended assembly version. This causes the compiler to fail to restore it after swapchar2 executes, causing crashes if used in a loop. This change fixes the security camera crash when using GCC 4.4.x or 4.5.0.

[LeoD]

Hail to the Plagman. (Could not get the MinGW version of gcc 4.5 to compile it, though.)

[supergoofy]

maybe you forgot to compile and install in mingw the libogg and libvorbis libraries

[Plagman]

MinGW 4.5.0 is what I was working against when I fixed that, so I know it works; what errors are you running into?

[NF64]

Quick question:
Ok a long time ago for the polymer trailer we seen the Pig Recon Patrol Vehicle casting spotlight lighting, i was thinking if this feature can still be done in polymer. If so how?

No. Please note that there are new versions (libogg-1.2.0, libvorbis-1.3.1). Seems to me that there are less crashes for me since I use them. (Although there haven't been many before that anyway.)

There were some strange assembler related error messages IIRC. But I have deleted that stuff some weeks ago after deciding to wait for the TDM version. Maybe I will give it another try in the not so far future now that i know that others have succeded in using it.

[Night Wolf]

Has anyone run into this problem ....

its quite odd ... it only ever happens on the 3rd or 4th time you load a level , say you die 2-3 times and load the same level on any episode on any level..
its causes the frame rate to drop below 5 fps and becomes incredibly unstable

[Night Wolf]

I would try deleting the texture cache but for some reason its disappeared and nowhere to be found in the eduke folder
??

[The Commander]

Changing the texture quality in the options will reset the cache if you can't find it.

[Night Wolf]

that did work to reset the textures... however the problem still happens on the 3rd - 4th time... the textures go screwy just shows maps and games runs very slow... possible windows 7 eduke issue??

[TerminX]

I suspect if there were Windows 7 issues I would have noticed them during the 16 months I've been running Windows 7.

[Sobek]

I've had something kind of similar happen in the past. However instead of just textures going a bit iffy, models tended to have pieces missing (possibly with some goofed up textures like above), along with the same unplayably slow framerate.

In my case, it turned out that it was a side-affect of running the game with some specific high-poly models at too-high a resolution and with too much AA applied. Not sure why it caused everything to stuff up, but just reducing the amount of AA I had applied, or dropping the resolution a bit would always take care of it.

Though to be honest I've never seen anything of mine just start showing normal maps. But the low performance + buggered textures would indicate that it's possibly a similar problem. I haven't yet pushed the resolution / AA high enough again to try and replicate this, but I have since also changed videocards (this happened on my 2900xt, which I changed to a 3870 and now a 3870x2).

[Night Wolf]

Interesting .... its possible its something I've done , maybe I've added a texture that's too big as I tend to experiment with my hrp' hmmm ... i might explain why its only happened in the last few weeks ... just couldn't be bothered saying anything till now, or it could be something else altogether

[Night Wolf]

I fixed it!

turning off "Pre load map textures" fixed the problem... how odd

Yeah, I couldn't get the latest revision to compile. But in saying that I have probably screwed up my MING since I got my new system not to long ago.

Well, thats definitely wrong.

[Stabs]

1526 wont compile for me, although my mingw is the older version

supergoofy needs to make another compiler pack

[supergoofy]

I new that time would come

[TerminX]

I wish there was an installer that would pull down all the MinGW gcc 4.5.0 stuff (and related updated packages). I see it's been released a few weeks ago but I'm fucking lazy.

[TerminX]

Btw, expect issues to occur with the latest revisions. Please report them.

[supergoofy]

I'm really bored to create a new compiling environment based on gcc 4.5.0.

But I guess I'll have to do it sometime.

I can't even compile the newer versions any more, and I can't be assed to try and find all the tools etc I need to download for MSYS/MinGW to make it work.
Make more synthesis builds.

[supergoofy]

Don't worry I already created 2 compiling environments based on:
gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2
and
gcc-4.5.0-1

I'll have to test them first before I upload anything.


[Edit]

My first compiling environment based on gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2 compiles ok eduke32 r1629

The second compiling environment based on gcc-4.5.0-1 gives error. It needs Link Time Optimization (LTO):
http://gcc.gnu.org/w...imeOptimization

I'm not going to bother doing all the stuff described in the page, just to enable LTO.

[The Commander]

4.4.1-tdm-2 is what it appears I am using.

[supergoofy]

Oops. I edited my posted without refreshing the page and thus I missed your message.

As I said my first compiling environment based on gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2 compiles ok eduke32 r1629

But the second based on gcc-4.5.0-1 needs to enable LTO. And I was bothered enough gathering all the needed stuff, I'm not going to bother anymore with gcc-4.5.0-1. If anyone wants just read the wiki: http://gcc.gnu.org/w...imeOptimization


Here is the compiled binary with my new gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2 compiling environment:

eduke32_win32_20100503-1629.zip
http://www.mediafire...php?mtdezygmi2z

And I forgot to report that the build tools (kgroup, kextract etc. etc.) cannot be compiled.

[The Commander]

Yeah, I had some troubles at first with trying to get it to compile, but it may have been due to crap left over from a "copy & paste" after getting my new PC.

I still get a few warnings and shit. Are they normal?

http://pastebin.com/PsLBGXy8

[supergoofy]

Yep, the warnings are normal


Anyway here is my compiling environment:

MinGW_gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2.rar
http://www.mediafire...php?zm2mbzdqwkm

MSYS-1.0.11.exe
http://www.mediafire...php?qydxuzkytii

msysCORE-1.0.14-1-update.rar
http://www.mediafire...php?l3m2xqj522y


I will work later to fix gcc-4.5.0-1


[edit]

With gcc-4.5.0-1 I get this error message:
cc1.exe: error: LTO support has not been enabled for this configuration

From what I I understand, I have to install libelf v0.8.12 and then download from the svn the LTO and then recompile?
If that's the case, I will not bother with it anymore.

[edit2]
or do I have to download gcc source and compile it with LTO enabled ?

[edit3]
check my next post. TX told me a little tip. Actually I forgot about looking in Makefile
