MapTool 1.3 Development Build 57

[Hawke]

Couldn't do it Encounters were a blast last night, but they ended up lasting longer than usual and we ended up calling it a night at a pivotal stopping point in the middle of an encounter. Cool thing with MT is we were all able to make some notes on our tokens and save - come back to it without any issues!!!

Downside is because it was so late we didn't get a chance to try out b57.

No problem, we'll catch it next time

Well, 3 days in, 500 zip downloads, 290 jnlp launches, all's quiet.

Either this is a fantastic build, or the big WARNING dialog scared everyone away

Mostly, it's that my campaign evaporated with the commencement of the fall semester (I'm back to work, one of my players is just starting Law School, another is slammed with work, etc - things dried up), so there's no game, and no likelihood anytime soon of one. I haven't opened MT in a while now (except for the development stuff I was doing).

Although the warning dialog is...frightening.

Commencing Savage Worlds framework test. Wish me luck. If it all checks out I'll use it in my Tuesday night game.

Edit: No errors thus far. Everything seems to be working fine but given the warning my advice is to save early and often.

yea the warning scared me off, any "testing" who have to be with frameworks loaded, has anyone tried it with any of the ones built in .56?

I'm using my Savage Worlds framework. It worked fine with the b56 version. I didn't have to make any changes but I haven't tested it players connected yet.

I was running Veggiesama's framework and received this error when editing a new character:

Code: Select all

It took my changes even though it threw an error.

Any stack backtrace for that, Jay?

I (and I think some other mac users) are having some trouble with the memory allocation. But I did play with it and I love the smoothness of the painting tools (which are rapidly becoming my mainstay for map building).

Nope, looks like MT swallowed it somewhere.

My next game isn't till the weekend, so I'm going to run this through a mock-battle and see if I can't break it. I need to finish doing some audio-editing first, but I should have the results by the end of today.

Should be in the log file in your .maptool directory.

[Illiani]

I had a play around earlier, but I couldn't spot anything iffy at all. Is there anything you're particularly worried about?

[RPTroll]

To be honest, I think that 'hang' issues has been around for a while. I always figured it was my hardware but maybe it isn't. It happened to me pre-57.
