Hello, I'm trying to play the latest GOG Version(1.0.10(GOG-15)) of Magicmaker on wine. The game ran fine on one of the previous versions. Unfortunately now the game freezes everytime the alchemist in Dörwall Community College gets into view. I attached the error_log.txt from the game's directory. Hope that helps. The last entries of the console I run wine in is just a spam of: ... CHECHSST TYPE 3 - sleppepable 0 CHECHSST TYPE 2 - sleppepable 0 CHECHSST TYPE 3 - sleppepable 0 CHECHSST TYPE 2 - sleppepable 0 ... which doesn't seem to be related. Attachments:error_log.txt (3.15 KB)

Do you know if there's a file named minidump.dmp in the magicmaker folder? If so, please email it to tastystewdios AT gmail DOT com. It'll help me figure this out.
Also, do remember when you were last able to run Magicmaker? I'd like to figure out what previous versions so I'll have an idea of what has changed.

Unfortunately there is no such file in the game folder. Does this file get created after a crash? Because sometimes the screen and the actors move a few pixels after the game froze after a minute or so. Mabe the game just gets really slowed down. I do not know exactly which version was the last that worked. Patch 1.0.7 definetly worked because I remember beeing unhappy about being unable to assign the middle mouse button. Patch 1.0.8 worked as well I think though I'm not completly sure. Also I do remeber that the game back then ran a lot slower than the current version. |

I put the files in the Magicmaker folder and started the game both via the model.exe and later via the original magicmaker.exe. The game still freezes. I discovered that the freeze has nothing to do with the alchemist but with the portals. When I click fast in the first dialgoue with the Headmaster after arriving in Dörwall the camera doesn't move too far and I can then explore the castle. As soon as either the portal to the Desert Zone or the Castle Zone appear on the screen the freeze happens(see attached screenshots). The other three portals don't cause any problems. Attachments:

Alright, this one's gonna take some doing. I'm sorry this is taking so long to figure out. Please replace magicmaker.exe and freeglut.dll with these files. They are not a fix, but I've expanded the error reporting so hopefully we can get a better idea of what's going on: www.dropbox.com/s/33r3yjql83s4byb/Magicmaker.exe?dl=0www.dropbox.com/s/q09jdqhu1rttp5u/freeglut.dll?dl=0Then delete error_log.txt if it exists. Go into assets/data folder and open GLOBAL in a text editor like notepad. Change the line: FALSE ;log all system and error messages to TRUE ;log all system and error messages and save and close GLOBAL. Run the game until it freezes up, then find the new error_log.txt and email it to tastystewdios AT gmail DOT com. Thank you for your patience. |

Just sent you the email. Don't worry about this taking a while. Few other developers put so much effort into fixing single bugs for their players. Or answer to error reports at all especially when people try to run their games on wine. It's pretty cool that you do that.

Alright, these were very useful! Please try this exe: www.dropbox.com/s/ybz1ca01gjqugv8/Magicmaker.exe?dl=0I believe this will fix it, if not, I'd like you to delete and recollect error_log.txt and send it to me again. For completeness sake, I also emailed you this message. |

Ah! That is good to hear.
You should probably turn off error logging by switching:
TRUE ;log all system and error messages
back to
FALSE ;log all system and error messages
error logging can slow down the game sometimes.
