Bug 18228

To install..

# urpmi --searchmedia Backports minilens

It should install everything it needs. Add "validated_backport" keyword when happy with it.

If it doesn't find the package you may first need to

# urpmi.update "Core Backports Testing"

I've installed and played all tutorial levels of minilens without problems but there were some errors in the console that the devs may want to take a look at.

minilens output with error messages

Thanks, the errors are not related to Mageia, it's potentially some non-critical errors in the game scripts or in the engine itself (it's just a bit verbose in the terminal output :)). It should not be blocking.

minilens mal-functions when it is being run from the command line here, see:

I'm using it with mga v5 x86-64 and Xfce and I cannot press most things on the minilens screen and the keyboard is ignored.

Thanks, it looks like a scaling issue of the UI elements. What's your screen resolution? From the video I infer something like 1366x768, is that it?

I'll look for a fix with the rest of the upstream team.

Reported the issue upstream too: https://github.com/KOBUGE-Games/minilens/issues/80
(and found a new one while trying to reproduce yours: https://github.com/KOBUGE-Games/minilens/issues/79)

Yes , correct:

shlomif@lap:~/bin$ bash /home/shlomif/conf/trunk/shlomif-settings/home-bin-executables/bin/display-X-resolution 
  dimensions:    1366x768 pixels (361x203 millimeters)
shlomif@lap:~/bin$

@Shlomi: We fixed some bugs upstream related to screen resizing, could you try minilens-1.2-1.1.mga5 (or minilens-1.2-1.mga6) and see if it behaves better?

Thanks! It is working much better now and I was able to complete the first, "Tutorial" pack. Not fully perfect but usable.

Thanks! Reassigning to QA then.

Source RPM: minilens-1.2-1.mga5 => minilens-1.2-1.1.mga5

Installed the update minilens-1.2-1.1.mga5 and played the tutorial without problems. Also, produces less output in the console than previous version.

When starting:
ERROR: get_unique_ID: Method/Function Failed, returning: ""
   At: core/os/os.cpp:459.

When loading the next level:
ERROR: disconnect: Condition ' !s ' is true.
   At: core/object.cpp:1452.

Based on comments 12 and 14, I think it could be validated. The error messages in the console are just because Godot is a bit too verbose, those errors are for developers and not really relevant to users or for the gameplay.

Testing M5 x64.

Installed as per comment 1 (thanks Claire):

Launched from both th command line & Games menu, 'minilens' slightly overflowed its window (cured by re-sizing it smaller) and seemed to work. Loads of errors at the console, considered unimportant. Based on earlier comments, validating this.

Keywords: (none) => validated_backport

minilens-1.2-1.1.mga5 moved to backports
