ScummVM and AmigaOS4.1 F.E.

I have tested your clib4 version a bit today. It has performed exemplary so far on my a1222 machine. No crashes whatsoever. Thumbs up.

@afxgroup

Thanks for providing the CLIB4 version. I had hoped that I could run the games ....Alpha Polaris and Syberia, but then it only crashes, which is understandable for a beta version and especially since these games are not yet fully supported by ScummVM.

In terms of speed, I have not noticed any improvement over the Newlib version of Raziel. On the A1222 the Clib4 version really seems to run better and users might have less problems with their version.

@Maijestro

Try this one:

https://www.amigasoft.net/temp/scummvm_clib4_010125.lha

It should fix the ISI. However on my 460 it freezes the machine when loading resources.. most probably the memory is full
And however there is a problem on GL4ES that is causing an ISI on engines that are using glPolygonMode
We should investigate this

@afxgroup

Tested....Alpha Polaris can now be run, but crashes after the main intro. The very first version of your Clib4 version could still run this game. But it is currently not expected to work smoothly. The “Wintermute” engine is currently not fully supported. And yes this game or engine takes up a lot of memory, I could observe the same behavior on my machine.

Syberia 1 and 2 Mac version should actually be fully supported from version 2.8.0, or is the problem only on our platform?

When I run Syberia 1 or 2, the DSI also occurs, regardless of which version I use, Newlib or Clib4

@Maijestro

guys, please, RTDM

I have covered this from v2.8.0 on

@Raziel

I don't know what happened but this is a problem on the exe generated by linker.

@afxgroup

what are you referring to, please?
I'm missing the context

The problem with the exe file

@afxgroup

that can't be, i didn't change anything in binutils and it starting crashing from a specific commit after 2.9.0 onwards, before that commit, everything is fine, something was added which doesn't like amigaos4 setups.

you don't seem to have the problem in your cross setup?

which version did you compile?
2.9.0 or latest master?

I'm interested if latest master still works for you, just configure, that is, gives me a crash on checking compiler version every time

I always use master branch. However remove -flto flags. That flags cause more problems than benefits. Try to use standard flags.

@afxgroup

do you only cross-compile?

could you try a newlib build?
just configure it

my configure always crash with latest master now

@afxgroup

is there something like

but for configure?

I need to see why and where it keeps crashing

@Raziel

Yes I always cross compile. The problem for newlib build is that I don't have all libraries compiled. However reading your stack it seems that the exe is not created correctly. That's why I'm giving you this advice:

in config.mk

Try to use this:

CXXFLAGS := -Wshadow -W -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-empty-body -fno-operator-names -std=gnu++11 -pedantic -Wno-address-of-packed-member -Wno-format -mlongcall -O3 -Wuninitialized -mstrict-align


Remove -flto and try to recompile everything. And just to be safe try o use static plugins instead of shared one

@afxgroup

thank you but you don't seem to understand

there is no exe of scummvm being created

I don't even get that far anymore

the crashlogs I posted are for
binutils binaries that keep crashing on me
during configure
right at the beginning when it checks for gcc

the binary of scummvm I was able to build
before a certain commit was merged
was perfectly fine

I was asking if you could give configure a try
on real amigaos4 hardware
to let me check if it is a problem of my sdk setup or something else

thank you

Ah.. No sorry I didn't compile anything on OS4 since ages.. It is useless spend hours to compile a software that on other machines took 1 minute..
Did you try to increase your stack?
Did you have some updated beta components?

@afxgroup

no beta stuff here, not a betatester, stack is a good hint, thank you, that would explain why configure crashes got worse over the course of adding new stuff to it and why suddenly binutils started crashing

I hope it's the culprit

@afxgroup

Unfortunately not, stack raised to 16 MB, still the same crash of binutil "as" when checking for a compiler

Trying to get a new install of SCUMMVM on a qemu laptop.

I have the 4.1FE (Peg) installed, SDK, SDL, and the graphics drivers from Enchancer 2.2, however I only get a black screen. (I did get some sound, when I managed to somehow start a game).

What else is needed, or is this a "it won't work under qemu" issue?

Thank you!

@Nuder_Try

could you please start from shell

and post the output?

-F means it will start in a window

@Raziel

Will do, after work (about 7 hours)
