build errors / go version about opendiablo2

[gravestench]

Can you try compiling latest golang from source? I remember having issues when i used the package manager to install golang on my rpi4

[Michas0206]

Build from source??
I am a complete noob! I could try, already found a how-to - but I assume I produce more problems when setting paths etc manually - I am currently using these steps - to me it looks as if Go works fine,
is there any way to proof if my Go-install is fine before trying to compile this from source?

Not sure whats wrong here - the game starts with "go run .", the menu shows up, map test works as far as I can see, but when trying to start singleplayer, game crashes with an error. I cant attach the message here in code format or quote format, so if necessary I could just add it as plain text, very long and starting with SIGSEV error.

@michas0602 do you still have this problem?

When I try to build the latest from Github I get

D2common/d2fileformats/d2mpq/mpq.go:7:2: package io/fs is not in GOROOT

[gucio321]

@kermitdafrog8 package io/fs was introduced in go 1.16, so you need to update your golang version

After upgrading Go it builds. When I run it I try to start a game and it crashes.

Panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x98c947]

If you need more let me know.

@kermitdafrog8 could you paste more pls,
I cant identity this exactly, but I suppose, that it could be caused by Diablo 2 patch. What Diablo II patch do you use? (1.14d needed)

[kermitdafrog8]

Would probably be which ever is the latest. Recently purchased the LOD expansion so I could use this. Is there any way to downgrade if needed?

[gucio321]

kermitdafrog8 you can reinstall game at any time, if you want to back to an older version, but please post your panic message, because I'm not sure if the bug is caused by Diablo 2 version.

@kermitdafrog8 it doesn't seem like behavior by a wrong version ...
I can reproduce it, when character save file has "permission denied" e.g. when it is owned by another user
pleas check, who is owner of your save files
default location of saves is in a config directory in OpenDiablo2 subfolder
for linux /home/user/.config/OpenDiablo2/Save

[kermitdafrog8]

It shows the right user:group. If I wanted to delete the save and start over should I delete folder or just file?

[kermitdafrog8]

Deleted save. Recreated character. Game loaded but no mobs. How playable is this?
