Need help with an R6 test

Spunkmeyer · Post by **Spunkmeyer** » Fri Feb 10, 2012 5:48 am

Can you please try this:

1-Log on to the beta lobby
2-Create a new game (don't use an existing game)
3-Go to game settings, change some settings including the Skill setting (make it Any), save and exit
4-Click on game settings again. See if the Skill setting has reverted to Novice Only.

This is happening to me but others can't seem to duplicate it.

Two attempts to connect to the "SOLACO" server failed to create a game. I tried it on the
"fazDev server" and could not reproduce it. Spent about 10 mins. going in and out.

... When I create a new game the skill level is "Any" by default, so it can't "revert" to novice only... But either way, changes to it seem to be saved fine if I follow your steps. >_>

On this machine I can confirm your bug.

I was able to change and save the settings except for skill level, this was set to any and would not allow me to change..

Hmm... I've tested your patch, but it made it worse...

My try to fix this (works for me):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2975104/beta/FAZBeta_2012-02-22.zip
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2975104/beta/Skill...tting_pkk.patch

IMO the problem was that m_bIsZoneClub had no value assigned, but maybe I'm wrong...

Yeah I'd posted on the ticket that my patch was bogus. Just by looking at it that's obviously it. It also explains why it was only possible to duplicate it intermittently.

EDIT: Just removed the entire conditional block, and the bug manifests itself consistently. Yup, close the ticket, that was it.
