I do.

My version of error free is, no error caused by the program, only the user, BOO YAH! .... would you like some ice for that burn? lol

Same ideas I had for Glycerine, it would be virtually error free, meaning you wouldn't see them. It would just log them and possibly send them to the server for me to make sure they don't happen on the next version.

Sort of like a mandatory "Submit Bug Report" that goes on in the background... however I will make it so it can be turned off in the options so users do feel like they're expending even more much needed resources.

...smartass......lol

Yeah. I get that a lot.  :roll:

Your definition seems valid enough though.  8)

Steiner

lol might be a good thing. I don't expect this thing to be flawless the first time out, I'll probably have to release a couple of tweaked versions before the weekend ends.

You did say we can quote you on stuff when you promise, right ?

Thanks in advance for all the hard work getting this update out.

'twas why I threw promise in bold, LOL.

(Only reason I'm looking here is because Cath just pinged me and went "Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock,..." lol )

You can't use that as an excuse. I didn't tell you to leave your Skype running.

Steiner

my skype is for my freelance business... It's always running. Same as your mouth! BUAH HAHAHA

I am so throwing that up into a Presentation for our classes here at the Academy.

Steiner

Ok, Back to MxD.

Ran into a few snags... the biggest one being there isn't a working deployment tool for this (the thing that makes the app install)... I'm waiting on Mids' to send me it, but since he's London time, it might not be until later tonight (as it seems his time for computer activity).

I will still be releasing a version at noon, but it will be HEAVILY improvised... and will require that you already have the old copy installed on your system... because I don't know what his deployment tool really did... All I can do is update the data and the MxD exe so it displays our additions correctly.

I see you looking at this thread stiener. . . . . so whats the word big perm, i mean big worm

Steiner

Alrighty. I'm an idiot. Mids helped me realize I did have it...

I'm running a little late, I hope you all can understand.

I have all the info, I'm just trying to get this deployment tool to use the new data versus the data the installer is packed with.


SOOOOOoooo.
Within the next hour there will be a new MxD to download, once you've downloaded it you will notice that the database is still not i15. If you have updates automatically set to ON, should just go on line and grab the files it needs... otherwise you'll have to force Mids to update. (Not even sure you can turn off updates...).

It's the only way I can do it because my data drone and I went about adding the new data the wrong way I guess. lol.

You'll also notice that the enhancement picker (right click on power slot) is stretched out... well, thanks to the PVP IOs, the amount of enhancements have broken the boundaries. You might be saying to yourself, "Why didn't you just extend the height", Believe Me! I tried! lol. We'll just have to deal with the slightly wider box until I can figure out the height thing (it's hard-coded and a pain). I honestly like the width-long box because all 6 IOs from a set fit on the first line, lol.



I'll let everyone know here if any of the above changed, however, I made a promise that it will be released today that will NOT change. I will release it, even if it is a little late to the time I claimed. Hope you'll understand.

So, am I to understand this correctly,

- power changes which occured with Issue 15 were NOT updated in this MxD only PVP IO's?  I did not understand your explaination of going online and grabbing updates....updates for I15?

You stated It's the only way I can do it because my data drone and I went about adding the new data the wrong way I guess. lol.

Does this mean the updates have not been added?


Just curious, because the flashbacks are happening again with amazing coincidence!!   :)
Maybe it would be better if the proverbial carrot was stopped from dangling in front of us until it matures/ripens.  I think THAT is what's frustrating me the most and I hate myself for getting this riled up over a game!  LOL.

Steiner

nono. Everything will be there, just it's going to be more than one step to get.

You'll have to install a new version of MxD that links to the right site for the updates, and then it's going to download the new data from the right site.


Everything is still being grabbed from Mids' old server, so I had to change that up.
