Tiny Fear Bug (?)

Post by Phex »

Hello,

I think I found a tiny bug in the newest fear build for windows.

When you try to change the Flag Number field of a scenery object to 0, it is always resetted to 1. But I also experienced that some netgames will only work with scenery number 0. Ctf flags with number 1 for example will immediately eliminate a team. Therefore it is currently not possible to create new netgame sceneries.
Please correct me when I'm wrong.

regards,
Phex

Funny, that's never happened to me, on either my Mac or my PC. I just tried it again and it worked fine.

I just followed that exact sequence of events and the flag number stayed 0. Of course I'm on my Mac right now, my PC is at work and I won't be able to try it there until Tuesday. I did change the flag number of an existing scenery object before on the PC, but I didn't try duplicating one, so I'll give it a shot as soon as I can.

Unless someone else could do it sooner, of course.

Odd. I'm on the PC using the Fear that came with build 286 and cannot replicate that bug.

Yeah, this one's been around for a long, long time. Ozone: I think you and I discussed this not too long ago? I also thought this was fixed.

Phex: you sure you're using the "latest" Fear?

I had to hexedit the flag settings whenever I tweaked netgame balls/flags.

I just recognized that there is a Fear 1.5.1 and a Fear 1.5.2. And it really works with the latter.

Sorry. :roll:

No problem, Phex - stuff like this can be maddening to say the least - finding the solution is all that matters! :)
