So based on that size difference, this might also imply that the size inflation of many other models might also be reduced significantly?

[Kazan]

yes

the more polygons in the model the greater the size inflation

For the "Think about the CHILDREN damnit!!!!" error dialog box 

Is it possible to have the name of the faulty mesh in it.
And how much trouble is a  "cancel loading" button beside the OK button?

[Kazan]

there is a "Think of about the children damnit" dialog box?

it's already going to cancel load/save when it encounters an error btw

[Water]

Err whatever you just did to RC2d allows it to now make it to that dialog box.

And no it doesn't cancel (for all models) -  Just got through 50 + clicks on the ok button

gotta run

[Kazan]

what model is causing that, it's gotta be one of bob's error dialogs

[chief1983]

Yeah it is his dialog, and I'm pretty sure he would like any model that causes it, as he mentions here:

Heh - Thought it was the new standard dialog box for borked meshes. Makes sense that it's for unusual geometry.

there are currently only 5 bugs in mantis that apply to PCS2.0 - tweak, trivial and minor statuses

if you have any bugs that are not fixed in rc2d you need to create bug reports in mantis (whether you mentioned them in the thread or not)

[Kazan]

  I find it kinda strange that i'm the first person to find this bug:

Sometimes PCS2 fails to load textures it should have found...... because my VP handler's search function was case sensitive.

[Kazan]

also found that resuming a VP search when you file a file that matches the pattern (such as a .eff) but isn't a supported type is found.

search resuming was... retarded busted

[Kazan]

ok people... i need someone with a newer (not 3.2) version of truespace to make sure PCS2 is importing smoothing data properly.

if nobody reports a new bug in the next week and that bug i just mentioned is not-a-bug i'm going to release

and if you posted about a bug and didn't mantis it i'm going to strangelate you

[chief1983]

Does text not fitting within a dialog box count as a bug?  I don't want to get strangulated.

Does text not fitting within a dialog box count as a bug?  I don't want to get strangulated.

a cosmetic one, but yes.. bug it

cosmetic bugs probably won't stop me from releasing at this point

[chief1983]

Will do.  Although I just found that I have a somewhat busted model that causes Bob's geometry filter to throw up the children error about 30 times.  I'm going to mantis it and you guys can determine if it's worth modifying the filter for.

[Kazan]

k.. that's a bob thing and he seems to have disapeared

[edit]
bah... just found a critical bug... prevents me from running PCS2 on my laptop...

[edit2]
aaaaaand fixed
