I got games-fps/rtcw to install (gentoo overlay), copied the .pk3 files over etc.
The game loads with primus, the intro video plays (with sound) but when I press a key or mouse button I get straight to the ingame console and all I can do is quit.
Anyone run into something like this? Haven't had any luck with the googlywebz. |

Not sure what you mean by (gentoo overlay), or what primus is however several older games like this that I have ran in the very recent past have worked well. I had quake3-bin installed and working with mods until recently. Now the game starts up loads intros then just quits. It exits with Received signal 11, exiting... . Quake3-bin worked great but something has broke in the last few months and now it fails to even run anymore. I have switched to quake3 which is an ioquake3 port and it dose run well.
FWIW: I installed rtcw-demo as a test and ran it without success. Game started, I had no sound at all, intro videos played but as soon as the mission was suppose to start the game exited with: | Code: |
AAS initialized.
AAS initialized.
Received signal 11, exiting...
Shutdown tty console |
The same error I recently started getting with the quake3-bin package. Here is a Bug Report for rtcw-1.41 which seems to be addressed in the latest ebuild in portage.
I am not sure what has caused these types of games to break recently. Debugging them is difficult and it may be impossible to find anyone with any real interest in locating and fixing the issues.
Can't seem to get any original games based on the id Tech 3 engine to run any more. |

Thanks for replying to an old post, I'll give it another try and report back if I'm successful. |

Go to github and get "iortcw" engine, more modern, SDL2, OpenAL, 64bit support etc.. |
