Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

This indeed was a programming error I introduced last night when doing a change required for mapping non-sanitized level set identifiers (like "Walpurgis World") to canonical, sanitized level set identifiers (like "Walpurgis_World"), which is required for verifying score tapes. ...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

It would be possible to extend both the client and the server software to support transferring all tapes in one connection, but I don't see a point in spending that effort that is only used once for each player (and never for new players). Will this try to auto submit these levels again? R'n'D does...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

Could these be ?random tapes in random folders? ?backups? ?downloads from others? Don't know how to find out which ones they were. Just have a look at "stdout.txt" and compare it with your "levels" and "tapes" folders (probably no need to compare single levels/tapes, j...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

The existing single option covers it There's no way 1 bit to cover 4 possibilities. Currently it does 'local+remote' OR 'local only'. No option for 'remote only', nor 'neither remote nor local'(an essentially useless option of the four). as long as server-known scores are marked somehow in the disp...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

Feature request: Under 'SETUP' > 'GAME AND MENU' > ... There's a 'ONLY SHOW LOCAL SCORES' How about splitting this up in to something like: 'SHOW LOCAL SCORES' in 'HALL OF FAME' and 'SHOW REMOTE SCORES' in 'HALL OF FAME' ? This way people can verify which, if any, of their scores got accepted into h...

Re: transition states not saved and/or recalled correctly

Testing with bad040.tape + 4.3.0.0RC5, I can move after the tape is loaded, and was able to finish the level. I used F2 to get to the starting point, hit Alt+2 to go to ultra-slow-mo, then played it out. Murphy makes part way into the exit before being exploded, which (according to the game engine ...

Re: transition states not saved and/or recalled correctly

Upload a tape which you've observed that loading it causes a segmentation fault. First make sure it reproduces the fault when loaded into a new run of RnD. I suppose you can check the linked to post for that tape. I'm not getting segmentation faults when playing right now, but I'm wasn't trying to ...

transition states not saved and/or recalled correctly

Murphy in transition state not saved on or recalled from tape? Pause in the middle of moving Murphy to new a position, save tape state, exit level, reload tape, Murphy will be paused at the new position instead of paused in transition to the new position. You can also do this without pausing too, i...

Re: window created twice

If the window's going to be a different size, I guess there is a question of what 'same place' means. Same upper left corner, or same center, I guess; and upper left makes more sense to me. One other thing that could be done for this is to make sure the new window is on screen as much as possible. ...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 5 released!

This is a major bugfix version and especially important for all people who have around 1000 tapes or more, which resulted in serious problems in the previous versions when trying to upload those tapes to the high score server. I think this fixed the major 'serious' problem. Lots more tapes submitte...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 2 released!

In stdout.txt after line 2535 it looks like it quit saying - uploading score tape to score server - uploaded. and started saying Tape NNN: (no level found) for everything This stops off at rnd_alan_bond 002.tape being the last "- uploading score tape to score server - uploaded." one. Ther...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 4 released!

it asked me to submit scores again. (If last submission was successful, it should skip asking again?) No, if you started with a fresh ~/.rocksndiamonds directory, there's no setup file to store if any tapes have already been uploaded, so that's perfectly OK here. It's been the same ~/.rocksndiamond...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 4 released!

I have two Supaplex folders, one from old engine, and one from the new engine. Does the server know the difference? What do you mean by "Supaplex folders" from "old engine" and "new engine"? Do you mean the level directory for "classsic_supaplex"? Your tapes ...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 4 released!

Again: Could you please send me your files "stdout.txt" and "stderr.txt" after you started the RC version and uploaded all tapes and see only levels with all sand in it? Preferably zipped by e-mail, if possible. That would probably help a lot here. Ok... For RC4 this time I got ...

Re: Rocks'n'Diamonds 4.3.0.0 Release Candidate 2 released!

I suppose I could have backed it up, but I didn't. ~/.rocksndiamonds/stdout.txt is blank now, don't remember if there was more in this file at that time. Could you please repeat the uploading process, as described in the announcement for RC3, but with RC2 (which still caused the program to exit, in...
