I am looking into the fesability of fixing some bugs in leveledit by doing a binary patch for leveledit.exe (much like the emoticons fix for game.exe).

So far, the things I have come up with to look into are:
1.disable all menu options etc that dont work anymore

2.enable some of the menu options from that hidden menu (but not all of them since some of them are useless)

3.make writing out a *.mix map only write the mix file and not always.dbs and such (I lost count of how many times I accidently messed up my ren folder because of that)

4.make leveledit read always2.dat

5.fix the crash when you try to create a preset and leveledit cant find the w3d file

6.fix the errors that occur with the "vechcile transition" editor and the "door trigger" editor on people running with 800x600 as display resolution

7.fix the crash when you exit w3dview

8.look into other things that make w3dview crash, plus bugs in w3dviwew

Anyone know of any other features or bugs for me to consider for this binary patch?

i have a question:

what the "ok & propagate" button does? because there is a bug when you modify a preset in the lvledit (adding scripts), the object already on maps dont update.. i need to remove them from the map, and re-add them to the map.





- a fix when you add an apache to your map... there is a lvledit crash.

There's one thing I'd liked to see fixed, if it's possible.

I don't know what causes it, but sometimes the temps20.ddb corrupts. When you temp an object and open up it's properties, the contents is all messed up and it displays information on another object in the database.

E.g.

Say I temp CnC_Medium_Tank and view it's properties, I get the properties on the CnC_Nod_Turret instead.

This also causes problems when loading the database again. Some presets arn't linked and need to be named again.

It doesn't always happen, but when it does, it ruins the whole database meaning you have to start from scratch. On some rare occassions, it stops and you can continue working, but it usually comes back.

yeah it was a patch, i remeber it just being a small alauncher, and it launched the program once, then it fixed it so it would do it on its own, i figured someone around here had to have it.

i cannot be any more vague.

thanks for the info.

The bug with the apache is a combination of 2 bugs listed above.

see the other thread on how to fix that, you can patch the level edit the same way as the game.exe, since le is just the game without networking, and some extra gui
