Game Help / Re: FH on Linux?

Aww man, my computer doesn't support hardware virtualization (I checked). Oh well. :/
You don't need hardware virtualization for WINE, that's why it's called "WINE Is Not Emulator": it's just an implementation of Windows ABI for unix-like systems. WINE emulates Windows system calls, but it does not emulate hardware.
However, you need to make sure you have properly configured hardware-accelerated OpenGL support on your Linux system.

Game Discussion / Re: Game Engine for Feralheart?
« on: June 22, 2013, 11:55:03 am »
AFAIK, FeralHeart does not use any physics engine. It's collision system was written by KovuLKD himself, and you probably can't do anything about physics. Of course, you always can switch to the Dark Side, reverse engineer FH's network layer and rewrite the client program from a scratch with awesome physics  :)

Game Suggestions & Ideas / Re: A few new offical maps ingame~
« on: June 21, 2013, 06:38:57 am »
I've tried disassembling feralheart.exe. Had no success. The unpacked executable is about 2.5 megabytes of binary code - and even more when translated to ASM. Now I think I would worship the person who can make a complex patch for FH executable without original source code :) But I still believe that it is possible to make FH report a newer version to server.
And I know that admins definitely have tools to decrypt FHMs, even user-made ones. So they can modify any map if they want to.

how dafuq am i suppose to fix this?!
The problem is you are not supposed to fix computer yourself. Electricity, sensitive electronic components...
But if you really have no other option you can try on your own risk. The good starting point is cleaning out the dust: http://www.wikihow.com/Clean-the-Inside-of-a-Computer

Sorry, I really must not advice you something potentially dangerous. So, never try to search for any books or articles about fixing your computer, and never try to repair electronics at home. You will burn your house to the ground, and this is not the worst option. Only rigorous nerds with foot-long beards, who share the Secret Knowledge, are allowed to put their hands on computer's innards. Just surrender and do not even think about touching the screwdriver, your parents won't approve it!

I believe you have a hardware problem. Maybe to much of dust on CPU/Video card cooler or swollen capacitors on motherboard or inside PSU. You probably should contact computer service to fix this.

Game Help / Re: No Graphics Card?

Command line is a program called "cmd.exe". You can start it by pressing WIN+R on keyboard and typing "cmd.exe"
A black window with some text should appear.
Then, you will need to navigate to FH folder using command line. FH folder is usually "C:\FeralHeart", unless you've changed it duaring installation. To navigate on command line you should use "cd" command, like this "cd \FreralHeart" or "cd \games\FeralHeart" in case you've installed FH in "C:\games\FeralHeart". TAB key auto-completes the path. Pressing ENTER key executes the command. If you want to change the disk you are working with, you should type its letter with colon, and press enter key ("C:","D:", "E:", etc).
Once you're in FH's folder, you will need to start FH with special parameters like this: "feralheart.exe >.\runlog.txt 2>&1", where:
feralheart.exe - name of a program you want to start
>.\runlog.txt - redirect STDOUT stream to a file "runlog.txt" in current folder
2>&1 - redirect STDERR stream to STDOUT

This will create a file named "runlog.txt" in FH's folder, containing technical information that may help to figure out why FH fails to start. You may upload that file somewhere, or just paste its contents here.

Discussion Board / Re: Bluescreens of Death.
« on: June 12, 2013, 11:53:09 am »
Bluescreens may indicate two things:
1. A bug in kernel-mode program (device drivers, operating system itself, some [anti-]virus software)
2. Hardware malfunction
The problem with kernel-mode programs is that they have unlimited access to your computer, and can do unlimited damage to you data or hardware if something goes wrong. So it is safer to stop the computer and show bluescreen rather than deal with unpredictable consequences of a bug in some driver.
Broken hardware is just broken hardware. Most computers designed to expect hardware to be ok.
