OK, I just tried v1.6.114 and it crashes to the desktop as soon as the progress bar is complete and the level should start. This applies to d2 missions only, not d1 missions, they work fine. It happens independently of any texture quality or render quality settings. log file btw: I was able to play ...

Aaarrrgh! D2X-XL crashes to the Desktop each time I start a new game - no matter what level it is

here is the log file:

d2x.log

edit: v1.6.113 - I thought I was to post Bug reports only for the latest version and so did I and therefore I didn't mention the version number, sorry

I've tried it and I am not able to deactivate the forcefield that leads to the red key room and I can't see through the see-through-grates where you can look into the reactor room, but the robots shoot at me and the hidden doors that lead to shield and energy powerups don't open up completely - they...

hey dizzyrox - you put in ceil21 instead of rock21 - was it past bedtime AGAIN?

no offense - keep up the amazing work

looks like there are scars from battle on the thighs - not bad fingernails and toenails texture should not be so dark - looks unreal - maybe look at a rhino's horn or the toes of a rhino or elephant to get an idea for a texture? the fingernail should not cover the whole phalanx - it should cover hal...

well I know that an image has to be decompressed by the software to display the image, it's the same with JPG and every compressed format - but the main thing I was going for was the smaller download size and space requirements on the HDD

here in Germany a Bluetooth Dongle is about 10-15€ - you won't see a cable that cheap very often

and your other points, well, I don't have to say anything about them, do I?

Neumaennl

Where did the suggestions thread go? Anyways - it might fit in here, too. The 109 textures released so far take up 190MB coz they are uncompressed Targa Format with Alpha channel, so it's 32 bit or 4 bytes per pixel. Why not use Portable Network Graphics Format (PNG)? It supports 8 bit alpha channel...

Neumaennl

it doesn't crash on my PC, but when I shoot the prison door it turns from hires texture to lores texture although the several stages of destruction are in the texture

Neumaennl

I'd advise to use a Bluetooth dongle rather than a cable 1st reason: cordless 2nd reason: you can use it with any phone that has Bluetooth (send files to a friend's phone, use it with a phone you might buy in the future) you don't have to install anything on your phone to receive files from the PC -...

somehow the muscle strings on the shoulders and upper legs look anatomically wrong (can't put it in better words / be more specific) I don't think it's a modelling issue, but some lines on the texture may produce this appearance and it gives me a weird feeling looking at the fingernails having the s...

Neumaennl

is someone gonna fix it?

Neumaennl

maaan, this looks NICE so far...

Neumaennl

When I look at it the first thing that comes into my mind is Ego-Shooter and only on the second look/thought it reminds me of Descent - The doors look like doors from Unreal or something in Lo-Res - don't get me wrong, it looks far better than the original level architecture-wise, but if I could do ...

Neumaennl

the brighter one sure looks better than the dark one although I think it could look interesting if there were some darker areas on him, too - like some horny skin

Neumaennl

Another one that's peanuts and I already reported it: in the movie list intro.mve is listed twice, but final.mve (that's the name IIRC) isn't listed at all

so you can't watch the D1 end movie

Neumaennl

DizzyRox the energy powerup now is perfect! But now to another thing: DizzyRox works around NovacroN's efforts, which is ok since it would be stupid to do things twice, especially if there's that much work involved, but as NovacroN didn't release all of his textures and obviously isn't working on th...

Neumaennl

Could it be that the search doesn't work anymore? Or is it just that posts older than X weeks are not found by the search or even get deleted?

Neumaennl

I for one don't think that the Energy powerup is THAT bad - at least it's better than the one in D3 IMHO.
But the shield orb as well as the energy sparkle are animated WAY too fast (dunno if it's just my PC)

Neumaennl

Hi DizzyRox I really LOVE your textures, you did a really good job. After making so many Wall textures how about some doors, panels and powerups like your wonderful shield orb?
*DROOLS at the thought of our beloved weapons and Energy powerup in hirez*

I progged it myself and why should I add Spyware to an open source game? It's absolutely risk-free - you can even download the source from the CVS tree and compile it yourself. You need a cellphone to play it properly, though. Just send the file to the phone and it should get installed. If your phon...

Neumaennl

the game is finished now and can be downloaded at Sourceforge:
http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/source ... s_v1.0.jar

so go for it if you like puzzle games

Neumaennl

I've never heard of basewars and I think I'll stick to Picross

Tastes differ, dude!

EDIT: looked for it and it would be a lot harder to implement than Picross although I have to admit that it sounds like fun

Neumaennl

Well I got this far all alone and I have to get this finished soon, so I'll probably finish it alone. Thanks anyways and get well soon. There are already plans for Mobile Picross 2 which will feature 30x30 puzzles, better sounds, animation, a bitmap font, more levels (the current version will have 1...

I am writing a mobile phone game which is almost done now. The homepage is at http://mobilepicross.sf.net and the game can be downloaded at http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mobilepicross/Mobile_Picross_v0.9.jar . The only thing that I need now is a nice level selection screen but my grap...

I have 4 \"Joysticks\": (a Steering Wheel, a Gravis Phoenix, a GamePad and a SpaceOrb) and there are several games that will only work with one or two Joysticks active - so I deactivate the the Joysticks I don't need in the Control Panel when I want to play these games - dunno if this will...

v1.6.59 crashes on D1 missions that come with *.RDL instead of *.HOG files again (thought you fixed that issue already) I know I could just put the Level file in a HOG and things would be fine, so this is not a pressing issue, but there might be people that like to play these levels and don't know w...

Neumaennl

cool, nicely done, but IMHO it would look better with the Hi-Rez Pyro Model

I bet you use it, too in D2X-XL and if not you should

and the big one is better - the small one you use as Avatar is too fast

Neumaennl

this Level is AWESOME!

Neumaennl

download 1.6.53 please, 1.6.52 corrupts the *.plr file

all other issues belong into the Bug reports thread in the D2X-XL forum

Neumaennl

Alright, your system should be more than adequate to play Descent with D2X-XL Be sure to check if there is an updated version of D2X-XL available, because Diedel is VERY fast with bugfixes You can also play Descent 1 with D2X-XL I have a Pentium 4 with 2.66GHz, 768MB RAM, a GeForce4 Ti 4200 and Wind...

could be that the file was corrupted before, too - don't know how or why but could be entered LogErr (\"%s.%d\\n\", __FILE__, __LINE__); several times but now it won't compile: Fehler 77 error C2143: Syntaxfehler: Es fehlt ';' vor 'Typ' g:\\Dokumente und Einstellungen\\Martin\\Eigene Datei...

Neumaennl

got your talkative day, huh?

advanced render menu crashes again - could these uninitialized variables we were talking about stem from a corrupted *.plr file? (v1.6.52 corrupts the player file as mentioned before)

Neumaennl

there seems to be something wrong with the lighting - D1 Level 1 shouldn't be this dark: http://upload3.postimage.org/228146/scrn0000.jpg in D2 Levels it's just the same... in the movies list \"intro.mve\" appears twice, but \"final.mve\" does not appear v1.6.52 messes up the aut...

Neumaennl

this is SO cool

Neumaennl

robot construction kit would be the way to go for you - the tahoma font is installed with MS Office and I'm quite sure it can be downloaded from the net somewhere
I could even eMail it to you

Neumaennl

I am quite sure that there are moderators, too - just thought that this was something that should be fixed

Neumaennl · d2x-xl-w32-1.6.52.zip contains the executable v1.6.51

d2x-xl-w32-1.6.52.zip contains the executable v1.6.51

Neumaennl

I'll try that tomorrow or at the weekend

I hope VS .NET 2005 can cope with the source code - I have to do some things with Direct3D and DirectShow for University and none of the examples work - it's frustrating, but it has to do with the crappy DirectX SDK which shouldn't affect D2X-XL
