TSL Restoration Project: The Phantom Deadline, READ FIRST POST BEFORE POSTING.

[mkg]

I have to say that I love vista on my laptop (and yes I play games with it) and everything I have tried has worked or had a fix out. I play BF2 (all exps), BF1942 (all exps but vietnam), Cod1 (all exps), Cod2 (all exps), Cod4, all the sims 2 (but free time and one stuff pack), kotor 1, kotor 2, EAW, NWN 2 (and exps), AOE 2 (and exps), AOE 3, Mass Effect, LOTR Battle for Middle Earth, Sins of a Solar Empire, and all of these are curently installed and working. I have only one problem when i exit a game after it as exited it says that (insert program name here) has stoped working and needs to close (but I was exiting so no duh it stoped working lol) and that is only on 5 of the old ones. But hey mabey I am just lucky.

Boy, I really hope that this project will work smoothly with Vista.

Does anything work smoothly with Vista?

 

Lol, ya know, I've had Vista for about a month now and have yet to experience any problems with it. It's been working better than XP ever did for me, actually.

 

But I really dunno if I'd be willing to rollback to XP just to make the restoration project work. Guess I'd play it on one of my older computers

 

Should be no need. I know lots of people have problems with it, but I seem to play TSL on Vista just fine.

 

In fact, I've had Vista for over a year now and have pretty much the same experience as you. Some stuff don't work, no, but the compatability problems have been far less than I expected. While I have no love for Microsoft in any way, I do get the feeling that lots of people just assumed Vista would suck and therefore only note it when they have that suspicion confirmed. It does have a few, but my experience tells me it's better than its reputation. Not as much better than XP as MS would have you believe, I think, but not terrible either. Really, I think it's greatest problem is how MS has marketed it.

Positive advancement;

 

The Nihilus options bug is fixed! One major (on Mantis that is) left...

I needed to replace a .dll file that had to do with the sound, or something like that, to get TSL to run properly. But it was a very common problem and the fix was easy enough. It runs so well on this computer, that's why I think I can't ever go back to my old one

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

You found 993 bugs and glitches?

 

 

Youch, this mod is serious work.

[darth nobody]

Down to 3. I don't remember the bug count ever being this low. I'm optimistic enough to think the long wait may soon end

Yes.

 

But remember that the bug count is not a countdown to a release. Besides, "feature"-bugs are not counted, and there are 11 of those left.

[Darth Exsilum]

I'd be surprised (all be it pleasantly) if it become available before the end of the year- But who knows really we're all kept in the dark when it comes to progress (this isn't a dig at Team Gizka- They're still an awesome bunch for even attempting this let alone getting as far as they have)

[FoxURA]

Eh... They're back up to 6 now.

[Deadly_Nightshade]

Boy, I really hope that this project will work smoothly with Vista.

Yes, lots of things do.

[darth nobody]

Back up to 6. It seems I spoke too soon.

[Darth Exsilum]

Like I said unlikely during this year...

Sometimes I like reading statistical data. Children between the ages of 13-17 are more likely to visit team-gizka's site than any other age group. In the month of May, team-gizka had it's lowest visits for 2008. Rebound visits could be the result of the leak, but I'm only making an assumption. I don't know if there is any truth to what I said. How reliable is Quancast.com? 20,000 visits in feburary is still incredible. Wow!

Relax. First of all, TG has consistently said that the bug count is not a countdown to release. Second, take a look at those new errors. Two of the are text issues in the dialog.tlk. Heck, anyone here able to use Notepad to open the file (= anyone) could probably fix that. The minor one is a detail ("Kreia shouldn't be there anymore"), which is incorrect, but does not hinder the game. The new trivial bug is similarly, well, trivial. Only one issue is significant, and has apparently happened to only one player. Frankly, I find it encouraging that the testers are putting the mod through a microscope, and yet it is these sorts of things they find.

[Hassat Hunter]

And yet stuff like the Handmaiden's Robe exploit eludes them.

 

It is... weird... to say the least.

That's true...At least they are now at the stage where all that is left to be done is polish and refine- just a question of how many areas they find that need polishing...

I think this one give me brain freeze:

Cannot complete Droid Factory

 

Alright I'm a bit baffled.

 

If HK-47 downloads the HK-50 templates, both the HK-50's and -51's stop attacking, and there's no way to complete the factory.

 

If HK-47 downloads the HK-51 templates, both the -50's and -51's attach him, except for the three inactive HK-51's in the HK-51 control room.

 

If HK-47 deletes the HK-51 template, then all of the HK-50's and -51's attach him.

 

So as I said, I'm baffled as to how I'm supposed to complete this. As far as I can recall, in my last playthrough the factory ended when HK-47 downloaded the HK-51 template, however this is NOT happening in this case.

 

- DW

I hope this comes off the list soon. I think this one issue may be of concern to them, or maybe there is a quick and easy fix. Edited August 6, 2008 by Marcus

[FoxURA]

Up to 11 errors.

 

But on the bright side, there are a total of 1,001 errors found. How is that the bright side? Easy. It means that there are that many fewer glitches that we have to worry about when the mod launches!!

 

After that, then we get to look forward to the droid planet mod to be adapted for TSRP. Then the real fun can begin!

[Darth_Windu]

Yeah that one was a doozy when I found it. I can't see why TG would have much of a problem fixing it though, worked fine in previous builds.
