Hi all,

I've just fired up urt 4.2 for the first time; to my surprise, I can't load any map -- using either the \map or \devmap commands nor the 'new server' menu. after loading the map geometry, urt refuses to go any further and prints the following:

ERROR: Hunk_Alloc failed on X

where X is arbitrary. The same happens on any map I tested, from ut4_eagle to ut4_dressingroom.

This is on debian unstable, i386 (with a 64-bit kernel if that makes any difference.) I'm using the radeon drm/mesa driver; the same issue occurs on both debian's 8.0.4 and git master, and with the software rasterizer --- so I guess the issue is not graphics related. I've taken a complete log but it doesn't say anything suspicious, except the above error message, to my untrained eyes.

Let me know if you need more info.

Edit: forgot to say that 4.1.1 works fine on the same machine (except for gamma not working.)

Check the cvar com_hunkmegs, it should be defaulted to 512. You've probably taken your config from 4.1 which has the default value set to 256.


Bingo. :-)

Works like a charm now, thanks. I'll set a new fs_homepath for 4.2 so the configs will be kept separate.

The new maps look awesome, btw.
