Hi!

Back from a little time away. I can test with MacIntel, but only playing with the Windows version through Wine (I don't own a Mac version of the game).

Thanks!

I need two Mac users (one using MacIntel, the other using a PPC) to run some tests. If you're interested, please reply here, stating what type(s) of processor you'll be using.

Many thanks for those who'll reply.

The problem surfaced when Weimer moved from using MSVC++ to gcc for compiling WeiDU. Moving back to MSVC++ didn't solve the problem. As far as I am concerned, a native WeiDU is much better than a wined one.

Nope, the problem is this: http://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php/topic,18470.0.html (and other related things).

I don't know if this is currently in your mind, but this problem wasn't there with weidu v125, but soon in v184 !

Sorry, I have not courage enough to check all version and see where the problem appeared !

OK, boss, I have asked you enough questions and made you suffer for long enough I had better turn around and help somehow :)

I have some knowledge (you can guess form my questions not much!), and no programming background or languages, but I do have the following:
  • the ability and willingness to follow directions to the letter
  • a set of BG2_SoA/ToB discs (US edition)
  • a current fully patched, Baldurdashed, never-been modded BG2_ToB install
  • a cable internet connection with bookmarked IE sites
  • 2 to 4 hours now, and more tomorrow afternoon
  • a burning desire to do something besides my own work

Please let me know how/if I can help in any way.

I can't offer any actual help at the moment, but I did want to say thanks. :)
Well, this is the last thing to do before 196 is ready. Not that I'm trying to blackmail you, of course  :D

Update - I have a bunch of bug-prone changes for 196 (I'm talking about backwards compatibility) and our lovely main tester is on holiday from IE. As such, anybody with the time and willingness to run a bunch of tests would be quite welcome.

Specifically, I need somebody to try to install as many mods as possible, to see if the tp2 or the .d cause any parse error (luckily, I don't have troubles with actually not working features, but just with a mod blatantly failing to parse, so no need to get your eyes bleeding by comparing and checking bits in a file).

As usual, you can contact me via post, via PM or via IM.

Could you tell me what parts of WeiDU are you proficient in, rather than those you aren't? Testing is for people who already know some tricks.

I can test with SoA and ToB but I need a little help for .tp2 and .d

My problem with weidu is just partially connected to gemrb. The fact i use weidu with wine is that i haven't ported dltcep to linux, thus i use the original binary of weidu too.
I haven't tried to use a native linux weidu with dltcep, i'm not sure it works, but honestly I haven't tried it.

I use dltcep+weidu while programming gemrb mostly to write some test scripts or look at scripts quickly.

About joining the testers, yes, once i can use the newest version, i would report more bugs ;)
But i'm not your traditional weidu user, i would probably find iwd2/pst script decompiler/compiler problems only.

I thought of this lately. I thought you went to university for math, but now it's CS; any chance of you contributing to GemRB once you get further along?
Yep, I switched this year (allow me to avoid details).

However, I've already enlisted in contributing to the engine of JC's Broken Hourglass by his offering (as it's being written in OcaML by Wes), so (*)  :(

@all (=loriel, hety, dev, FSR): thanks for your offerings; you should receive shortly the membership privileges needed to access the workroom.

Ave, please confirm if you'd like to join or not  ;)

*: JC has gently asked me to make it clear that the only reason that might stop me from working on GemRB is time issues, not a non-competition agreement or whatever tentative of restricting my freedom of code.

Id certainly be happy to help with beta testing.  I was thinking I could try to verify that scripting (DLG/BCS) compiling and decompiling is working, and that the basic command line features are working.

By the way, is there any kind of regression test for WeiDU?  I remember Wes mentioning this idea a long time ago, but I don't know if anything came of it.

I'm wildly hacking the iwg2*.ml code, and I ran into some problems with that and the newer version of WeiDU (188 I think), but I suspect this comes down to something that shouldn't be too hard to fix (I guess folks eager to attempt to compile and run the old IWG2 mod should probably work with an older version of WeiDU anyway).

numerous

In other words, I can, of course, compile WeiDU and check the features I most use, although I don't know if I have time to stress test things that I don't use (e.g., broken COUNT_2DA_ROWS wouldn't be a high priority for me). Up to you.
