L.C. Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Found three bugs on the spot; one of them is an old one. Surprised it hasn't been fixed/noticed yet.http://www.hlrse.net/Qwerty/DCME-Error6-Overflow.jpgHold your CTRL button while zooming in and out. When zooming in, the last 'Zoom-in' while holding the CTRL button while give you this error; a few short laggy seconds later it zooms in as normal. Problem: Gives the error and has some latency before continuing to zoom its last time closer. Second bug --added to known bugshttp://www.hlrse.net/Qwerty/star-glitch.gif Angle is 0. I caught that in a split second, then tried to replicate it and get it to hold; I did. Not perfect when it should be - that's a horizontal line! Third bug --fixedis when you use the airbrush with asteroids. Spray a streak or two across the map. Then press CTRL Z to get rid of it. It should leave behind a few large asteroids that require manual deletion (because for some reason they never went into the memory / undoable memory).
Samapico Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 actually.. the first bug (overflow) has been fixed and refixed a couple of times... I'm surprised it still happens... about the update thing: if the DCME executable is renamed to something other than DCME.exe, it might crash when trying to update or something (fixed in upcoming release already)and most of the patching files are supposed to get deleted after the update the airbrush/undo thing is a known bug... and it will probably only be fixed when we redo the undo/redo system completely (cause we will need to anyway)I'll probably get working on that after eLVL (which is almooost done now) As for the bug about non-perfect line... I also noticed that ellipses aren't symmetrical... so all these shape drawing stuff might need some tweaking eventually, but its probably not a priority... unless Drake knows how to quickfix that, cause he's the one who made that part
Samapico Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 ...I can't seem to reproduce the zoomIn bug... I've tried resizing the preview picturebox to something huge... still nothing.
Drake7707 Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 As for the bug about non-perfect line... I also noticed that ellipses aren't symmetrical... so all these shape drawing stuff might need some tweaking eventually, but its probably not a priority... unless Drake knows how to quickfix that, cause he's the one who made that part Due to my *ehm* lak of */ehm* knowledge of how to draw ellipses or any non straight lines because of the more "complex" math (which i totally suck in) i just copied the ellipse code from other source code . Might be because of rounding errors tho Besides, pentagons are drawn with regular shapes instead of stars... no ? I hate having ax=0 for i = 1 to 100 x = x + 0.1 next guess what ... x doesn't equal 10 .. stupid small rounding errors at every floating point operation.. *grumble* >.>
Samapico Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 concerning the overflow error... maybe that would be the problem:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;199809 -topic split as the first posts concerned a different problem that is now fixed (view other topic)
