v231 Lexica Botania makes screen go completely black, can't escape
seajaysec opened this issue · 22 comments
Entering into the Lexica Botania in the newest update, 231, causes the screen to go black. Pressing esc and clicking mouse buttons doesn't help. Game doesn't seem to crash (nothing weird in crash log) but must be quit to restart.
Give me a log. I also need to know which graphics card you're using. If this didn't happen in 230, try changing "shaders.secondaryUnit" to 6, if that doesn't work, try 15.
This definitely didn't happen in 230. Playing with it a bit more, it's only the Lexica Botania's splash page that makes the world go dark. Using the Lexica on items in the inventory or the world is just fine and takes you to the right page, which renders fine. It's only when opening the Lexica for the first time after logging in or when backing out to the main page that things get weird. As I-Need-A-Username noticed, the screen doesn't go completely black. It just gets super dark.
Here are two screenshots. The first is of me trying to use the Lexica after the world went dark. There's a flower (Flowey?!) showing up when you mouse over that area, and that's it. The second is a shot of what the world looks like.

Here's a log. It doesn't really paint much of a picture.

My computer is a Macbook with integrated graphics. Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB
Shader types 6 and 7 cause the screen to go dark here, but type 15 works fine, the problem is not consistent across all Intel HD Graphic 4000 cards.
Shader to 6 doesn't change anything. Shader to 15 fixes the rendering on that page but slows FPS ingame to about 1fps. Not playable.
@seajay1221, does your log get filled with GL errors with shader 15? Can you try other values from 0 to 7 (resetting the game every time)?
I will be happy to do so, but I’m at work now and won’t be able to test that out for several hours.

Anyone else who's having the same problem could also try this out. If nothing works, disable shaders altogether.
When I brought the shaders value down to 1, my problem was fixed. The screen visibly darkens when I initially open the Lexica Botania, but it's easily readable, and it brightens back up once I go into a page or exit the book.
I've had the same issue. I changed the specified value in the config to 6, and then to 15, but that didn't help. When I changed it to 6, nothing changed, and when I changed it to 15, I crashed upon opening the Lexica Botania.
However, I can say that although the screen goes black, it doesn't completely fade out. I could still just barely make out the game (shown in this screenshot http://i.imgur.com/Ujf08Mc.png ), and it was still running, since I could hear the sound of re-opening my Lexica Botania. I was able to log out of my world, open it back up, and exit again without a problem, since I knew where to click.

When I bring it down to 0, there are no problems with lighting, but this happens.
Here "shaders.secondaryUnit" set to 7 or 6 leads to blackening, 15 works as normal.
Hm, ok. Anyone who is having any problem whatsoever, please describe it exactly (and not just "same as that guy"), with a screenshot of your context (CTRL+SHIFT on the F3 menu). I'm trying to figure out a pattern to see what is causing this.
@grompe Do you get any lag with 15 or GL errors in your console while you open the book?
@Vazkii, I can see no lag, no GL errors, 15 works just fine for me.
When I open the Lexica Botania, the entire game begins to lag heavily. By that I mean that everything gets sluggish. Mouse movement, keyboard input, etc. The book opens and you can somewhat navigate around it. However after a short period it begins to be nearly non-responsive. It does so in any menu. That is, the book menu, inventory screen, or even the pause/alt tab screen.
I have moved around and reloaded the world fine. And everything works brilliantly before opening the book. No lag, no issues.
SSP, Slightly altered Infinity (added Iguana Tinker Tweaks and Minechem).
I have the log for the relevant time period, but I'm unsure of how much use it is.
All it really shows is the loading of the world, a bit of moving and looking around, opening the book, and then alttabbing. I can give full load-up sequence log if that would help more.
Thats from my other issue. This is the complete startup log: http://pastebin.com/fADvgr9A
As for the black screen issue, and this is on build 232 not the same as the others. I get mostly the same experience, sudden black screen and game non-responsive. One time I did notice that I could move around a bit and see some things in dark grey (Birch trees and sand I think it was). Couldn't reproduce.

Every time I open the Lexica, my screen goes black after I updated to v231. It has stopped happening, when I updated to v232 and set the shaders.secondary Unit to 15. Hope this can help.
