Windows v6 beta test

[ffcmike]

Seems like the playerlist doesn't update players level as often as it should.

I was also walking around Classic's overworld, pretty normally without warping or anything unusual, there being no gmap update and suddenly it seemed as if all of the npcs within a particular level had been merged with other npcs, I entered an inside (would have been scripted setlevel2 rather than a warp link) and all of the npcs within that level didn't have onCreated called Clientside.

I've noticed that too. I was helping a friend and told him to go to his house, and had my cursor over his name in the player list. I didn't even know he went to his house for five minutes until he pmed me and told me he was there, the player list never updated his level..

One thing which should be tested a lot: if heads and bodies on classic servers are still displaying fine, we made some big optimizations there to reduce texture and memory space usage.

About GuiMLTextCtrl: those are not supporting the GuiControl border modes, I don't remember it working in v5.

One thing I noticed the other day was one of my friends had a bomy (I forget which one, but it was grey) out on Zodiac and it would just shoot off to the right off screen. I was the only one that saw this because I was on the latest beta client. It seemed to happen when he looked right, but it didn't happen all the time.

My screenshots save in weird colors on v6. Doesn't occur on v5. Doesn't matter what compatability mode it is ran in, or if I disable visual themes/desktop composition.

Windows 7 64 bit
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 (latest drivers)

Same for me, see this thread:

I'm on Windwos 7 64 Bit, ATI HD 5650 with lates drivers


Also, another problem I had with all v6 betas so far: Whenever I try to close Graal, it just freezes and I have to use the Task Manager to close it.

The screenshot colors are wrong for both png and jpeg format?

I don't see where there's an option to choose this. If it works in a way that you just rename the extension at the end of the screenshot saving then yeah, the colors are wrong for both.

Based on those screenshots it seems like Red and Blue are just inverted. Green is still in the right place.

Okay I did manage to test this with the channels in Photoshop and it is indeed right.

Posting this again here (already posted it in the "v6: what needed for Release?" thread), in case Stefan might not see it.

STRETCHXEFFECT and STRETCHYEFFECT in ganis don't flip the image when using negative values. The "stretched" sprites either don't show up at all, or the "end product" of the sprite is flipped instead of the sprite itself (Example: the sprite is first rotated and that rotated sprite is then flipped, creating an unwanted effect). I've seen both happen (different hardware).

It works fine for me, on Mac. Can anyone else test this?

I'm getting the problem too, no matter if it's a PNG or JPG.

The new version 5.324 has been uploaded to http://www.graalonline.com/downloads...al_windows.zip :
- Screenshot colors should be fine
- Added undo/redo functionality to GuiMLTextEditCtrl, by default 16 undo steps, you can increase by setting undostacksize = number; the undo/redo is working with normal shortcuts: Ctrl+Z for undo, Ctrl+Y or Ctrl+Shift+Z for redo
- Support for more body colors on client-side (you can e.g. do for (i=0; i<5; i++) player.colors[i] = "indigo"); server-side support will be added when all clients are switched to v6; you will appear black to other players when using the extended colors; all html colors are supported (20 default colors + 143 html colors)
- Fixed the indigo html color
- Windows are opened in "cascade" style instead of at the mouse position
- Support for redirects in URLs
