libpng12.so.0 message and shadows - duffman - 09-05-2010

The installer log showed this message reported by "checklibs"
/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/local/games/pc/amnesia/AmnesiaDemo/libs/libIL.so.1)

I get the same message on the command line when I exit the demo, with other stuff
./Amnesia.bin: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/local/games/pc/amnesia/AmnesiaDemo/libs/libIL.so.1)
UTF-8 Charset not available.
Current LANG is en_US
Charset: ISO-8859-1

Does not seem to be an error, and my version of libpng is 1.2.37

The demo runs fine though, except for casted lights that are all green. For example, the light on the floor where you start, coming from the windows, is all green. Turning off shadows fixes it.

it probably means your system version of libPNG does not have version tagging on it. That's all, it can be ignored.

As for the rendering issues.. Check the version of graphics drivers you have installed.. make sure they are the latest.

Upgraded to latest NVidia, that fixed it.
