Bugs at Israel Terrain
« on: April 11, 2003, 04:42:32 AM »
Hi,
I'm building the terrain of Israel for SEA.
I've found some bugs:
1: Spawn points are not visible ( the arrows - the spawn points works well) if Zones button in clipboard is off. To see the spawn points I have to check the both buttons - Zones and Spawn points. How Can I fix it?
2: In h2h and offline test I can not see strat information even if you have 75% fuel at the field it shous you in strat 125% and when I try to take a plane when all fighter hangars are destroyed it do not marks them as unaviable, (but I can not take the plane - destroing hangars work well).
3: All the versions of the terrain I've build have the same name "israel" can I force the Game in H2H mode check the version of the terrain and download it from the host as it produced when you try to connect to main arena and you do not have the last version?

How can I fix that bugs?

And two more question:

Can I test the terrain just in H2H and offline modes or there is a possibility to ask to put the terrain for 2-3 hours in SEA or another arena to make good tests with more then 8 pilots only - that have sometimes problems with good connect and that makes a lot of problem for the test - half a time takes for relogs to fix vox or problems that planes looks like a dots for some players.

How can I test that the terrain is good for HTC to make with it new events?

Hello Artis

1)  not 100% sure about what you mean.  Can you give us a link to download your latest .res version to look at it.

2)  Strats don't work in Offline or H2H
If you used the prefabed Country Fields ( Fact. HQ City etc ) then chances are it will be ok.

3)  No!  ( 99.9% sure ;) )You would need to do something like Israel, Israela, Israelb, Israelc etc, etc.  When you think you are sure all the corrections or changes are done then give it a final name.
P.S  That's why it sometimes better to have a name only 7 characters load just in case you need to make a correction.

I guess you would need to deal with HiTech for this.

Hi, thank you for replay,
There is the little terrain I've made to show this bug:
The terrain:
http://www.geocities.com/artyomtnk/test.zip
The sources of the terrain:
http://www.geocities.com/artyomtnk/test-src.zip
the same bug have norway and trinity terrains that I have downloaded it form HTC site.

The bug:
 Can't see spawn points at the clipboard. If I press just spawn points button it is not work. But if I press zones or radar range button on the clipboard too you are able to see the spawn points.
There is there spawn points going from V1,V2 and V3 every one come ito the area between the three those fields

Crlsea
Desert
Finus
Hungary
Midway
Mindanao
Rhine
Tunisia

Terrains Desert, Crlsea, Midway, Mindanao were ok.

Terrains Hungary, Rhine, Tunisia, Finus were not.

BD, they all have zones except for Finus, Mindnao and Tunisia.

The interesting thing for me was that I uninstalled my AH using the UNWISE.EXE in the AceHigh folder to get rid of old AH stuff and then installed the full version AH1114.

NOW Tunisia and Finus show ok for spawn points :)
Hungary and Rhine are the same.

P.S I'm curious about Rhine and Finus.  Rhine only has 1 Bishop Field while Finus only has 1 Knight Field.  Shouldn't they have at least 2 to eliminate the "won the war" it any other country field was captured?

Thanks can you tell me please about bugs that  you fould. By the way there is a new version isr1v01 with a lot of spawn points added to the terrain and new filed - V45.

Do you know the way how to test this terrain (not just in h2h mode) maybe to post in on SEA for few hours?
Can you tell me pleas how can I post new snapshots of Israely (Bishops)  Vs Arab teams (Knoghts + Rooks)?

To take a screenshot just press alt+s and it creates a .bmp in your AH folder.  

When you want to post your pictures you can ask XNacho to do it for you http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=83082

Just making an observation, just find it interesting that both Tunisia and Finus terrain NOW show ok for the spawn point where they didn't before?
