ScummVM IRC Log - 06 Sep 2020

[00:01] <grogbot> <criezy> Yes, it is not exposed in the GUI and needs to be manually written in the ini file.
[00:01] <grogbot> <criezy> I would say it is mostly useful for developers when we set our extrapath to . or something similar so that it finds the themes and engine data files in the scummvm source directory, and we don't want to put the icons there.
[00:01] <grogbot> <criezy> But I would expect most users to use the extrapath.
[00:02] <grogbot> <criezy> And I just noticed that the README.md, LIESMICH, and the source code all have a different idea on the exact spelling of iconspath 😅

[00:05] <Scummette> scummvm/branch-2-2 36b249c criezy: README: Fix spelling of iconspath config key
[00:11] <grogbot> <SupSuper> yeah the only use-cases i can think of is you either have a folder with all the icons or one on each game
[00:11] <grogbot> <SupSuper> but since the icons thread has never been consistently named, i'm not sure anyone's using it
[00:24] <grogbot> <criezy> Hopefully the icons repository will help with that 🙂

[06:49] <grogbot> <rootfather> What's the default icons path, @criezy? Asking for a possible integration in the Win32 bundle 😉
[06:58] <grogbot> <rootfather> hm, even setting the iconspath (found it) won't make the icons appear in the Win32 taskbar - can you confirm, @SupSuper?
[06:59] <grogbot> <SupSuper> they need to be in .ico format for win32
[06:59] <grogbot> <rootfather> ah, because .png would be too easy >.<
[06:59] <grogbot> <rootfather> 😄
[06:59] <grogbot> <rootfather> is that a restriction from Win32 itself or from our implementation?
[06:59] <grogbot> <SupSuper> it's from the win32 api
[07:00] <grogbot> <SupSuper> if you got imagemagick you can do something like convert logo.png -define icon:auto-resize=256,48,32,16 logo.ico
[07:01] <grogbot> <rootfather> ah, very nice

[09:04] <grogbot> <rootfather> I'm currently playing around with enabling plugins in order to decrease startup times
[09:05] <grogbot> <rootfather> however, all plugins throw out a warning message on startup: WARNING: Failed loading plugin 'plugins\zvision.dll' (Failed loading plugins\zvision.dll: not found.
[09:05] <grogbot> <rootfather> the plugins work though
[09:05] <grogbot> <rootfather> any idea
[09:06] <grogbot> <rootfather> ah, nevermind - they don't work.
[09:06] <grogbot> <rootfather> must be going on at my end
[09:20] <grogbot> <rootfather> weird. Building with my MXE toolchain results in this error message (despite the plugins being there and enabled) while MSYS2 works just fine
[09:34] <grogbot> <rootfather> LOL. It's the filename. At least on Win32, the plugins system only works if the name of the executable is exactly scummvm.exe. Use e.g. scummvm1.exe and it will fail loading the plugins. This sounds like a bug to me.
[09:37] <grogbot> <rootfather> Also, IMHO scummvm should only try to load .dll's stored in the plugins directory as plugins - currently it's spitting out warnings for any other .dll shipped in directory where scummvm.exe itself resides.
[09:37] <grogbot> <rootfather> e.g. WARNING: Failed loading symbol 'PLUGIN_getVersion' from plugin 'C:\msys64\home\lotharsm\scummvm\zlib1.dll'

[11:43] <grogbot> <criezy> @Deledrius Yes, my question was limited to providing the builds for Mac OS X PPC when we do a release, and check that they work.
[11:44] <grogbot> <criezy> I will continue to maintain the overall macOS backend (but you are obviously welcome to also work on it if you want to).
[11:46] <grogbot> <criezy> Building the application bundle and creating the dmg disk image we distribute is very easy if you compile on a mac. You can just use the 'make osxsnap' command.

[12:26] <grogbot> <Henke37> i think the windows icon format does allow for embedded png images
[12:27] <grogbot> <Henke37> but it also allows for entirely different icons depending on the size/bpp
[12:28] <grogbot> <Henke37> you can even look at the pink games for an example of this
[12:28] <grogbot> <Henke37> in fact, i think they even did monochrome icons
[12:32] <grogbot> <Henke37> btw, someone mind adding the icons repo to #github-notifications ?

[18:05] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I don't see a way to set rsn8887 as the owner for the bug, without changing the resolution, so I'll set it as "pending" with him as owner. I hope this is ok
[18:05] <grogbot> <antoniou79> (well and if it's not, we can always change it)
[18:12] <grogbot> <rootfather> @antoniou79 that's the correct way in this case.
[18:12] <grogbot> <rootfather> "resolution" should better be labeled as "what's now?"
[18:14] <grogbot> <_athrxx> Is it a Trac thing that you can't just set the owner?
[18:14] <grogbot> <_athrxx> Or does that require better privileges?
[18:14] <grogbot> <rootfather> yes, that's a Trac thing or part of their design. Every change requires a specific "action", so you can't change the owner without "doing" something.
[18:14] <grogbot> <rootfather> e.g. in this case we choose "pending", because we are waiting for the new owner to pick it up
[18:15] <grogbot> <_athrxx> Okay, that makes sense. With the tracker that we were using before that "pending" basically meant "fixed".
[18:16] <grogbot> <_athrxx> IIRC the "pending" tickets would automatically close after a period of time

[18:16] <Scummette> scummvm/branch-2-2 db8d46f dreammaster: LURE: Add missing if block brackets
[18:18] <grogbot> <criezy> Yes, I find the way this tracker works confusing. There is no obvious way to assign a task to yourself to say you are working on this. You also need to set the resolution at the same time to something which in my opinion doesn't really makes sense.
[18:19] <grogbot> <criezy> The way I have seen pending used in other tracker is usually to mean "cannot reproduce - we need more info from the reporter"
[18:23] <grogbot> <_athrxx> It is certainly the reason why most of our tickets have no owner

[18:23] <grogbot> <_athrxx> Is it possible to auto-assign tickets to an engine owner?
[18:24] <grogbot> <SupSuper> you also have to set the owner when "resolving" which was super confusing for me, it makes it look like i resolved all the issues (when i'm just closing obsoletes)
[18:37] <grogbot> <rootfather> sometimes the bugtracker is confusing indeed.

[19:44] <grogbot> <antoniou79> The bug reporter said you just go to McCoy's apartment, then his bedroom and then exit to the balcony
[19:44] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Could be running out of heap or something. I can try to build with latest toolchai
[19:44] <grogbot> <SupSuper> there's more details in the forum thread
[19:44] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Theres nothing special about switch port as far as I know...
[19:45] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Was -frommon ever added to build flags? Latest toolchai will need that
[19:45] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Can cause random crashes
[19:45] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I don't know about that
[19:47] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I can upload a save game with McCoy in his bedroom in Act 1 right at the start. It won't take me long, but you may have to rename it to match with your game id on the switch
[19:51] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Also there are some things that are just not supported@on switch, for example pthread_detach I can check if at some point recently, usage of such functions was introduced.
[19:52] <grogbot> <rsn8887> Ok the savegame would help a lot thanks. I can take a look probably later tonight or tomorrow 🙂
[19:52] <grogbot> <rsn8887> I also wonder if this ever worked?
[19:59] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I never saw it reported earlier than in that thread on our forum. People must have tested on the Switch port... I think
