Post by: Blob Dude on February 22, 2004, 03:42:10 PM: It's the new menu design in progress.
The smaller squares are where character profiles will go and when you click on them the info in the bottom box will change to suit. The other big box is where other option buttons or something will be going! Oh and the background will be tansparent.

So what do you think?

sounds like you have it well planned out... Razz Looks good though, I like the gradients.

What do you mean by "has enough fractions that mixed with my fraction bug" ?

Post by: Cesque on March 03, 2004, 08:08:15 AM: It uses much fractions. And I have a bug in all tk games and the tk itself, which doesn't treat fractional numbers as numbers. A debug menu appears, saying 2.2 is not a valid number. So it skips all parts of code with fractions, simply. If that's positioning of text, the text is gone, a bitmap - a bitmap is gone, delay - there is no delay. Etc.

I don't know what causes the bug - propably some pharaoh' curse - as I changed my computer, installed tk and blah! the old bug returns! I doubt I'll get rid of it.

Post by: Blob Dude on March 13, 2004, 08:08:18 PM: What tookit version are you using?

Have you tried downgrading it or something if you have TK2?

Post by: Spyder on March 13, 2004, 09:13:56 PM: It shouldn't matter which TK he's using, as games you download are not supposed to be installed under "your" TK directory. BTW Cesque, when you said fractions, I thought you were talking about numbers such as 1/2, 1/4, 3/4's, etc, not .5, .25, .75, etc. That definately is a weird bug.

Post by: Cesque on March 14, 2004, 03:14:50 AM: Hmm, I've done some research on the bug some time ago. For example...

#h!=1/2
#delay(h!)
#mwin("<h!>")

It displays h! as .5 and it works in delay.

Now you make something like this...

#h!=.5
#delay(h!)
#mwin(<h!>)

It displays h! as .5 but it doesn't work in delay.

#delay(.5)

Doesn't work either.

You CAN use fractions, by using first method #h!=1/2, for example, but that's not the problem. Problem is when you run games like Dark Age 2 where fractions are used in lots of delays and text placements. It doesn't display text and simply skips delays. If a variable is also equal #damage!=damage!*1.5 for example, this variable equals 0 (dunno why, maybe it doesn't skip "wrong" code but simply changes all fractions into 0, but then - why doesn't it dpslay text?).

I'm not installing games in my tk directory. It works no matter where the game is installed.

It's version tk 2.2, it was like that in 2.0 and it was like that on my previous computer. Maybe it's really a curse or some evil magnetic field near my puter?

Work?

Post by: Dude Man on March 15, 2004, 08:12:37 AM: I think It dose. I used 0.5 before. Because I use alot of Bitmap cut sceans in my games. Well only 3 have them so far.
