Guess I can't do a spoiler button on this forum, to bad. Hope this works then.
I've bin having some pretty bad graphics issue ever since my last update session (running linux crunchbang (debian)
Most of it is pretty harmless and I seem to still be able to save my game, just random color changes, weird bloom effects when ship blow up off screen, while in battle at the tactical map giving orders has either text missing or the icons that hover over the stations you set to capture are weird. All this does not stop the game from functioning though and you can still safely save your game.
But there is some bad stuff going on as well, sometimes I get a weird color change to purple and suddenly my whole machine slows to a crawl, even outside of the game. It my look like it's freezing up but its just going really slowly. I checked my CPU cores cycles/usage and those where going crazy with one of the four maxing out most of the time (they where still able to switch use between cores), sometimes even two cores where at max. Ram usage seems to still be unaffected though. It does not cause the game to crash nor my system. Everything is just really slow and given enough time I can force java to kill turning everything back to normal.
While any of these things can happen at any time it seems worse while I engage big hedgemony (spelling?) fleets. Alto this may just be coincidence.
AAAAARGH!! My log file is 7 mb in size, I'm not allowed to attach it. Does anyone have a good idea how to include it anyway?
Not sure if this helps but here is my linux update history. of the past few days.
