5 Related to #3565658, does not work with glew 1.9.0 - ID: 3598159

Last Update: Comment added ( mvejvoda )

Details:

Fedora rawhide was updated to glew 1.9.0 two days ago, and megaglest rebuilt.
I also did rebuild it locally and ensured I had everything up to date in my rawhide
computer, and the problem persisted.

The game is unplayable because mouse clicks are incorrect, usually right clicking
anywhere is interpreted as right click to close to the "town center". Double click
to select multiple units, or drag a rectangle to select multiple units also ends up
selecting wrong units, and cannot unselect after that.

The problem only manifests after game start, that is, menus work, and only
change I am aware is glew update. But it may be a side effect of something
else, so I am also attaching valgrind log of a few seconds in game.

Date: 2013-01-16 10:26:10 PST Sender: mvejvoda svn has the flickering fixed and color picking is now the default way to select units
Date: 2013-01-16 09:58:17 PST Sender: pcpa The problem with unselectable units appears to have been corrected, but still there is screen flashing. So, I believe it is better to wait for a more complete solution before a package update. Either way, I committed the change with my test at http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/megaglest.git/commit/?id=bc021582cd9f7af8e9c7d922d84f213dc6e1e33f
Date: 2013-01-15 09:16:18 PST Sender: tomreyn Please try again, I think this issue where workers within a buildings' selection box are not selectable is fixed in r4025 with EnableColorPicking=1
Date: 2013-01-15 04:50:52 PST Sender: pcpa Besides the screen flashing, another issue I noticed was that selection with color picking is not possible sometimes. Most common case is to have several workers build a "town center" and end inside the selection box of the building; for worker this can be worked around with "I" to select idle workers... but "box selecting" should work in that case (after better testing, box selecting appears to work with other driver, but that driver also works with selectbuf).
Date: 2013-01-14 21:08:54 PST Sender: mvejvoda As a sidenote we are looking at improving and possibly defaulting to color picking as selectbuf is deprecated in newer opengl and buggy in various drivers.
Date: 2013-01-10 18:13:04 PST Sender: pcpa Damn, I somehow missed the reply, and just figured it out now that EnableColorPicking=1 cures the problem... Just commented about it in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889685 At least I got some good megaglest debug sessions :-) This appears to not happen in all drivers, well, at least not in the intel driver, and apparently is a mesa software fallback problem.
Date: 2012-12-22 09:50:30 PST Sender: tomreyn For what it's worth, this seems to be the same effect I'm having on Ubuntu 12.10 (libglew1.8) but did not have on Ubuntu 12.04 (libglew1.6). EnableColorPicking=1 in glestuser.ini works around it (but at a performance penalty and with side effects). So far I blamed mesa for it.
