Qrack Update

[Lightning_Hunter]

Whenever I minimize/maximize Qrack now, the mouse stops working altogether in the game until I restart Qrack completely.

Have you had a chance to look at the bug I mentioned in the last post yet, R00k? I can help you narrow it down if you need me to. Just let me know what you need.

Also, I noticed the HUD icons are still in the wrong spot the Rogue mission pack. I have my HUD weapon icons on the right side, but the Lava Nailgun appears on the bottom of the screen when I switch to it.

Merry fkn Xmas!
Now to the bug hunt.
Demo playback failing shortly after a few seconds into them.Usually with a max light styles error.
Lots of random disconnects during matches with a lost socket error.
Plenty of random general software errors and dies all the time now wont run for more than a few minutes.
Bah humbug!

Time to start fresh and test against a virgin install I spose and get back to you with the results.
I found a gtx 520 under my tree this morning

This would be a lot easier if there was an error log generated on shutdown.
I can see that some of the demo playback issues are missing models or maps.Some other things are likely .dll version conflicts caused by my pasting the new exe into the qrack folder.
Other things are likely caused by dumping all the demos together.
But the scv_ >Max_lightstyles seems to be the most common error in demo playback.

Something weird is my sprite for armor is now the Rl ammo also the mega sprite is black again.
Also my new card is a GT 520 and is going back tomorrow and getting the GTX 550 ti.
I got WIFED!

the mouse doesn't feel as smooth as the previous build, or moves as fast.

[bluntz]

I noticed that also.
At least it has not crashed yet after a full segregation and vanilla install.
Nice to see your still around Trick.
Maybe I could get you to show me how to set up your multi player weapon models ?

use m_raw_input 0/1
or
m_direct_input 0/1

but not both a the same time.

Yes
Trickle you are not an easy guy to get to.
Maybe if you could just PM me with the mundane links to docs I will need to read so I don't waste your time going over the boring bits?
That would be swell.

What do you need help with exactly?

and R00k..that classic bug from years ago is happening again!




Also, powerup shells don't seem to be working.

[R00k]

Woah, wtf?! I seriously do not get that bug again. grab the current beta exe in the www.quakeone.com/qrack/dev folder (just the exe) and see if it still works on your end.

[Lightning_Hunter]

My mouse still doesn't respond after minimizing/maximizing the game in these newer builds. I can only use the keyboard after I maximize, and have to reload the game.

Edit: Ok, I figured out that m_raw_input causes this bug. I turned it off, since I don't know what it does anyway (it's a new command, right?). Maybe it should be disabled by default.

I have noticed one more small thing. While a new map loads in the game, the windows mouse cursor pops up for a second, then disappears again. It did not do this before. Here are my current mouse settings from my autoexec:

//Mouse
m_raw_input "0"
m_smooth "1"
m_directinput "1"
m_noforcemparms "1"
m_filter "1"
m_rate "1000"
m_di_bufsize "32"
m_di_buffered "0"

[R00k]

Make sure that m_directinput AND m_raw_input are not both set ON at the same time.

Eh, I found a bug, m_raw_input 1 is required if u use vid_vsync 1, if in windowed mode.
