#653 Display bug when setting OPTIONS=tiles:Small tiles

Milestone: Devel

Status: closed-fixed

I'm playing on RedHat 9 with 0.0.7E6F2, using GTK.

If I fire up slashem with no tiles option in my
.slashemrc file, it will display characters by default.
If I then choose the small tiles option, the
background is set to black and small tiles are
displayed correctly.

However, if I set OPTIONS=tiles:Small tiles in
.slashemrc, the background is gray, and black splotches
appear in the background whenever I go up or down
dungeon levels.

I can't reproduce this. I suspect it might be related to the
version of Gtk+ that you are using. You can find this out by
doing:

ldd /usr/local/slashemdir/slashem

(don't try and run ldd on the shell script!). Amongst the
loutput will be a line that looks like:

libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/devel/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
(0x40075000)

Then use ls -l on the gtk .so file listed. For example:

ls -l /usr/devel/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0

This will tell you the exact version in use. In my case the
output is:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Apr 24 2003
/usr/devel/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 -> libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.200.1

which decodes to Gtk+ version 2.2.1

I can confirm this bug. I'm using the following options:
TILESET=name:x11,
file:/usr/share/games/slashem/gltile16.png
OPTIONS=tiles:x11
and start with gtkhack and official RPM's:
slashem-0.0.7E6F2-0.9.0.i386.rpm and
slashem-gtk-0.0.7E6F2-0.9.0.i386.rpm. I have Fedora Core 1
with XFCE desktop and XFCE-smooth theme.

The problem IMHO is, that when tiles are not set to use
transparency then they are drawn on default GTK background
color not black background. But when tiles disappar - for
example when descending to another dungeon level - they are
changed to black.

The black contours are of the previous level I was on.

But when I set transparency to on:
TILESET=name:x11, file:/usr/share/games/slashem/gltile16.png
background is black but corridors are barely visible - black
on black.

GTK+: 2.2.4

Thanks Tomasz, as you say the problem clearly affects
gtkhack with which I can reproduce it.

As regards your second image, the tileset in gltile16.png is
not transparent so telling slashem that it is is likely to
confuse slashem and cause problems.
