Tux Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) what error do you get ? No error, don't bother, you just found a windows specific bug, it works perfectly in linux though ! Edited September 21, 2022 by Tux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffman1985 Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 A black screen without anything is seen, and it then close. No error message can be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 ... and fixed ! It's a bug which is here since the 1st sdl2 version, which means that nobody ever tried to run a game from the command line in windows with the sdl2 version, or didn't report the problem, it's because windows requires a special glsl initialization, which was skipped if using the command line this way. Sorry ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffman1985 Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) Ok, thank you for telling me the truth. (But in fact it does not work in old version with sdl1.2.) Edited September 21, 2022 by ffman1985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Yeah I guessed it was older than that after posting, it would be here since opengl became the default display method then, which would make it a very, very old bug ! Well since most people in windows probably don't even know there is a command line, the only ones who could use that would be the ones using frontends to run raine. It's quite surprising none tried and failed to use one then... ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffman1985 Posted September 24, 2022 Author Share Posted September 24, 2022 Even I use the version 0.94.4 (64bit), the -nogui command does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not windows specific this time. And it works if you don't put the -nogui. For now, just don't put the -nogui thing, I'll fix it later... !

Tux Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Anyway just tested in windows 10 to be sure it works, it does, here is a screenshot to prove it : (tested also with the iso contents extracted to a zip without a cue file).
