Hi, there is a bug in the manu recipes: they get lost on dis-/re-connects. I talked to fedora and as she's busy with the emotes (great job!), we agreed on the following patch I wrote: Index: manufacture.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/elc/elc/manufacture.c,v retrieving revision 1.56 diff -u -r1.56 manufacture.c --- manufacture.c 1 Oct 2009 18:37:50 -0000 1.56 +++ manufacture.c 3 Nov 2009 22:17:56 -0000 @@ -26,6 +26,7 @@ int manufacture_win= -1; int recipe_win= -1; int recipes_shown=0; +int recipes_loaded=0; int manufacture_menu_x=10; int manufacture_menu_y=20; int manufacture_menu_x_len=12*33+20; @@ -38,6 +39,15 @@ char fname[128]; FILE *fp; + if (recipes_loaded) { + /* + * save existing recipes instead of loading them if we are already logged in + * this will take place when relogging after disconnection + */ + save_recipes(); + return; + } + memset (recipes, 0, sizeof (recipes)); safe_snprintf(fname, sizeof(fname), "recipes_%s.dat",username_str); @@ -50,6 +60,7 @@ fread (recipes,sizeof(recipes),1, fp); fclose (fp); + recipes_loaded=1; } void save_recipes(){ @@ -350,6 +361,8 @@ //copy the recipe for(i=36;i<36+6;i++) manu_recipe[i-36]=manufacture_list[i]; do_click_sound(); + // save recipes to disk to avoid loss on disconnects/crashes + save_recipes(); } return 0; }

Yes, the caf files are now downloaded correctly under windows... Edit: It seems there is a bug in the cur_health/max_health patch: even NPC's have now a (veeeeery long) health bar over their head...

I built a windows client which was tested by several players without any problems... I found the problem: the animation files in CVS are all broken Correction: the files in the CVS repository are correct, but it seems that (at least some) CVS clients download them as text-files and render them useless that way... :=(( these files are binary files but were handled as text files --> all 'line endings' were altered from '0D' to '0D0A' If you download the animations from Fedora's post, everything should work fine...

#K_HIDEWINS is for closing all windows

I put in <ALT+r> for ranging lock. This could be changed by adding #K_RANGINGLOCK = <your preferred key-combo> to the 'key.ini' file in the EL program folder...

alt+x and ctrl+q are the default (compiled in) values for K_QUIT and K_QUIT_ALT. So after redefining those two in 'key.ini' alt+x and ctrl+q are free to use for something different...

you can add these 2 lines to the 'key.ini': #K_QUIT = <your prefered exit-key> #K_QUIT_ALT = <your prefered exit-key>

Maybe the new 'spells.xml' should be put into CVS, too, so people who build that client and don't read this thread can use the new spell window...

As these changes aren't really used/needed by the current client (I guess they are important for the new engine), i simply use the older CVS-versions of the affected files and the client works great without any color problems...

The offending file is already deleted and I check all files I get to avoid such problems...

TY, it works great! btw: a current CVS build for windows can be found here

Congratulations Cyberwulf!!!

Hi, I host the whole custom-clothing collection at www2.gm.fh-koeln.de I can make this a permanent hosting; the only problem I see is, if there are different servers everyone who wants to see your new clothes has to configure the corresponding server. To find out more have a look at my EL-Services-Page... Greetings Sir_Odie

Hi, seems, there are too many entries in the Sky&Cam-Options-Screen on Mac: Found this in the official client and also in the current cvs-version...

Sorry, didn't notice that there was an auto-conversion from tabs to spaces in my patches... :=(( I corrected and re-uploaded all my patches and hopefully they work now... I thought about a key-combination (ALT+r for ranging-lock) in addition to the context-menu but we already have alot of key-combinations, so I first wanted to know, if it's ok to add that... Ty for your hints! Edit: I added the key-conbination with an according consol-message...

Works great! tyvm bluap

Hi, Krosis has moved to Portland [211,63] an the new owner is Sir_Odie ty

Great Work! I updated the project-file for the MAC-client, so that the user-menus get compiled in there, too. The patch is on Berlios...

GRATZ Dugur!!!

Ty for your comments. This was only a first attempt implemented similar to the sit_lock variable. Saving between sessions is really not needed and a key sequence and/or context-menu entry is a great idea (but wouldn't the same be true for sit_lock?)... Edit: I rewrote the patch to use the player context-menu instead of a config option and uploaded it to Berlios...

I found a small issue with these variables: the y-adjust seems to work fine everywhere but the x-adjust is (for me, maybe others can test on different systems, resolutions, etc) dependant of the number of chars in the string --> even number = no adjust needed, odd number = adjust needed... But as without the adjustment some strings are 'out of line', with the adjustment only some others are, so this shouldn't be a big problem as you now at least have a chance to adjust them with these variables...

I posted a patch which implements Ranging-Lock in the 'Programming' section of the forum...

As there is more space left and right of the text the effect isn't as visible as in the vertical direction. I updated my patch and checked the horizontal adjustment, too. Yes, the smallest button 'GMs' looks better/centered now (using the same values as for the inv-buttons) and the others still look good so I think your adjustment-variables work in both cases... Edit: I added the adjustment-variables to the 'number buttons' in the inv-screen and to the stats-display in the HUD, too. they work fine there... I postet the complete patch on Berlios.

As we are at the cosmetic changes, how about the vertical text-position in the channel-tabs? looks like the same positioning problem as in the buttons... Edit: wrote a small patch (based on bluaps code) to correct this: RCS file: /cvsroot/elc/elc/widgets.c,v retrieving revision 1.156 diff -u -r1.156 widgets.c --- widgets.c 10 May 2009 19:38:25 -0000 1.156 +++ widgets.c 10 May 2009 21:23:40 -0000 @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ #include "asc.h" #include "chat.h" #include "cursors.h" +#include "elconfig.h" #include "elwindows.h" #include "gamewin.h" #include "global.h" @@ -846,7 +847,7 @@ glEnd(); glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D); - draw_string_zoomed(W->pos_x + 2 + extra_space, W->pos_y + 2, (unsigned char *)l->text, 1, W->size); + draw_string_zoomed(W->pos_x + 2 + extra_space + gx_adjust, W->pos_y + 2 + gy_adjust, (unsigned char *)l->text, 1, W->size); #ifdef OPENGL_TRACE CHECK_GL_ERRORS(); #endif //OPENGL_TRACE
