Will Proteus have any future updates?
The only planned updates at the moment are essential maintenance.
First, if the problem is a crash or graphical corruption, please ensure you have updated your computer’s graphics drivers to the latest stable version. This will usually be possible via the manufacturer’s website.
Second, if the crash is occurring with an older stand-alone (i.e. not Steam) version of the game, please try downloading the latest build from your Humble download page or other store page.
If this does not resolve the problem please read on.
On Windows (likely on an Intel HD graphics card, which is causing problems with Proteus 1.2.1)
Try reverting to Proteus 1.2 – see below for details if using Steam. If using a standalone installer, please contact me.
On OSX 10.6.8
Please try the following workaround:
Open Terminal.app (Spotlight should be able to point you to it), and enter in these four lines: (If the first one can’t find the directory, this will be because the Proteus install is somewhere else. If you can’t figure out where please let us know…)
cd ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Proteus/Proteus.app/Contents/MacOS/
curl -O http://www.flibitijibibo.com/osxboehm.tar.bz2
tar xvfj osxboehm.tar.bz2
./Proteus
Game has inverted draw depth – the trees and sky appear through the terrain
Assuming graphics drivers are up to date, this seems to be something introduced on certain ATI cards in patch 1.2.1. The current workaround is to revert to Proteus version 1.2.
