Indeed. :p Should the build be updated, or are they safe to save for the next build?

I think people can live without properly-aligned context help in NSRs and an EXE a couple kilobytes larger. ;)

I just gave this new build a try.  I tried to load up ported single missions from the DoP campaign, but it CTDs as soon as the first loading bar is illuminated.  Using the debug build loaded with no errors however, and worked fine until some Hercs jumped in, and Bob's Herc uses 5 LODS instead of 4, which the debugger complains about.  I reverted to your 14th build and had no problems.  I haven't tried this with WMC's new build yet.

Also, with the slowdowns, lockups, and crashes in FRED non-HTL that the hi-poly models create, I've been recently opting to use HTL mode, but it still has some bugs.  1st is the object render position bug which I've brought up before, but I've seen some other bugs.  Firstly, when you select a ship, the model mesh doesn't get highlighted.  Also, some models don't display dockpoints or paths... mostly GTA fighters.  I've noticed this on the Ulysses, Herc1 and 2, Loki, all bombers (except Athena in the Port) and I think the Erinyes.  I'm not sure what would account for this.

Later!

Sorry to spoil all the fun, but the SEXP-Nodes in FRED are not raised at all. Have you tested it with my Mission ? I'm still getting the break at the same point in Mission 5 :(

Hi

When posting new builds would you be able to put the date in the subject field please. I am finding it difficult to see the thread relating to the lastest build in this forum. As people reply to earlier threads it all gets mixed up.

The stuff you guys are doing is fantastic. I am really hanging out for when shaders are implemented. Can't wait. What impact do you think shaders will have on the visuals and the framerates?

Hi

Thanks to who changed the thread subject line to include the build date. It makes it much easier for me to keep track off.

Thankyou.

I can confirm that WMC's 04/24 build doesn't crash the way your 04/24 build does.

Can anyone report back on whether the turrets fire or not?  They're working for me, but i got some oddness in High Noon.

Yep, all missions go CTD after one or two loading bars are illuminated, including FRED-made ones. I used D3D

I also tried variety of missions using opengl-mode, no CTD this time but instead "normal crash" occured during each and every loading try.
