Title: Crash before starting game
Post by: Santron65436 on January 08, 2010, 23:51
Currently I get a java error when I choose a local tournament. First it says it does not like the file OpenAL64.dll. Then it gives me a java error. Is there a minimum java release required? I have attached the log file.

Try updating your OpenAL and see if that fixes the problem:

Thank you for the info. It did not work, so I deleted the OpenAL64.dll file (I am using 32 bit windows) and that error no longer happens but I still get the java error. Runtime exception (Java.lang.RuntimeException:SubImage out of sheets bounds: 3,0)

Did you install the oalinst file from the link I sent you?  If you deleted the openal file without installing the updated files, you might have problems with sound.

Yes I did install from that link. It installed the newest OpenAL32.dll file but when I loaded mule it still crashed because I am not using a 64 bit windows but Mule is attempting to call the OpenAL64.dll anyway so I deleted this file and Mule now no longer calls the 64 bit file but the Java error still continues.

If you're not running a 64 bit windows then why in the world did you have an OpenAL64.dll ?

Openal64.dll is included in the mule_windows_1.2.0.zip file you download from the download link on this site. It is located in the data/lib directory.

You should install Java 6 (http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp#jre) (you still have Java 5).

Also upgrade your graphics card drivers. Use the ones from your computer/mainboard vendors' website. Alternatively, the chip vendors' drivers for this chipset are available at s3graphics.com (http://www.s3graphics.com/en/drivers/index.aspx) and may work for you, too. To determine which chipset you have exactly, use CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php).

You seem to have a VIA S3G UniChrome IGP onboard graphics adapter. Those are known to cause issues with games on Windows. It might be worth spending some bucks on a dedicated graphics card if related issues remain.
