Showimg with ganis and gralats

TB3 · #1 02-20-2004, 05:27 AM

I have encountered an unexplainable problem with ganis.
I have a gani attached to the player that shows a showimg , and the gralats that are online that I use also use showimg, they both cant be on the screen at the same time. I have the gani attached to the player, when the gani is attached to the player the showimgs for the gralats wont show, without the gani attached they do show. ??? I am also having trouble moving a showimg in gani (THe problem is 1/8 times I log on its showing the other times it wont show??? ) I have checked the scripts and what not and it is all error proof anyone else have this trouble? or anyone else doing something similar?

Its still not working properly any idea's?
Both the attached gani to the player uses #P1 and #P3
And the Gralats use #P1 and #P2 but they shouldn't conflict!!
Also the gralats wont show again unless I exit graal and come back just taking off the attached gani does no good nor does reconnecting

Maybe its because you logged in on RC first? (Or has that bug been fixed)

Although interestingly enough, for some reason Stefan says it has been fixed the last time I talked to him =\

I tried it again without rc on and it still does samething however when I use another showimg gani attached to player that doesnt use changeimgzoom and uses imgvis 2 instead of 0 it works fine O_O (The gralat gani uses vis 1)
I guess its a memory leak either involving the imgzoom or imgvis complicating each other?

*Edit: tried changing the imgvis from 1 to 2 on gralats no difference if you see gani on player first then the npc gani still doesnt show up even after reconnect only if you remove the attached gani from player and restart graal*

*EDIT2: MORE IN DEPTH
Gani attached to player = GANI-A
Gani in gralat npc= GANI-B
If you see gani A before B is shown you cannot see B
A must be visible while B is first shown for B to not be visible
If A is removed before B is shown its first time then you will be still able to see B until you exit graal even if A is shown again
Also if B is seen first while A isnt shown the same as above you can see it until you exit graal
ODD WOULDNT YOU SAY*

*EDIT 3
Ive used all variations of showimg vis and what not with both so Im guessing maybe its a memory leak with imgzoom any input?*

*EDIT 4
I removed the img zoom and img vis from GANI-A and still no difference*ill try more tonight after work

If it has, we still have the problem on Classic. It gets HIGHLY annoying.

I'll stop posting off topic in your thread now, TB3.

What indecies are you using and are you intending the images attached to the player to be seen by others? If not, then use indecies higher than 200

It might be a conflict with using the reserved indecies that are intended for an image to be seen "globally" when online (1-200). Won't matter what layer or attribute they're on, perhaps.

Sadly thats not what the problem is

i've tried all kinds of different indeces and also vis and even disabled the coloring and zoom of the images it is still doing it Im hoping that its just a bug with gralats specificaly.

also I did some indepth research, if you havent seen this take a look it might help you too

read it all the way through hehe
I made one big post with most of the info on it

Thanks for the link. I've had that problem before, too, but I then again, I don't really put showimgs on indecies below 200. I'll just use a gani for such things as its easier to make placements more exact

*edit*
The only real problem I have with showimgs is drawing priority on the Y and having to put images on layers that are more than 5-6 layers apart even if they are the same image. I usually do something like changeimgvis <index> 6 for the top image and layer 5 for the shadow. Sometimes only the top shows, sometimes the shadow is drawn overtop, and almost always they do not show up...usually drawn under the the dialog window image I use which is drawn on layer 4. It especially likes doing this on mode 1 which just draws the image with alpha only and not the gamma change to make it look like a light.
