| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-22 08:23:29 | I'm pretty sure this is a good build: v4.32e RAR, ZIP. Try it out... it won't go "gold" on the official download page until Thursday evening. I'm hoping some of those who have had problems with 4.32d will be able to try this one in the same situations. It doesn't make any sense: that's why they call it "virtual" |

| Sir Avanor 2003-10-22 19:38:02 | I had that same trouble. It's easy to fix. Just create a user.txt file with your user name in it. Things ought to work fine then, at least they did when I installed 4.32d. I am guessing the same solution will work. He who liketh long words. |

| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-23 03:10:01 | This was precisely the reason I didn't put the program up on the main site this evening.  I've just fixed a bug early on in the initialisation part of the program, that _may_ have been causing this problem (it's in about the right region of the code).If you try downloading the links above again, to get v4.32e build 2, does that help?

| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-24 03:34:14 | OK the version now linked to at the top of this thread is 4.32e build 3 (which will probably be the final build). SanderT's error looks like it's saving the proper result to results.dat (which is the primary file muon1 works from) but then saving only the last result to results.txt - unfortunately still with the "#runs=5" tag. I'd recommend you stop using that build as soon as possible and upgrade to the new one - also delete results.txt and copy results.dat to be results.txt, so you send only the correctly checked results. Badger might want to try build 3 as well - I've changed the code so it simply doesn't go where it used to in the part where it was crashing. Due to the nature of the crash I expect you'll just get it crashing later on, but on the other hand you might be in luck. It doesn't make any sense: that's why they call it "virtual" |
| BOHICASETI 2003-10-24 10:24:47 | Something that I noticed with this latest build (4.32e build 3) is that it doesn't correctly read the config.txt file. It seems that it was compiled to just look for config and not config.txt cause it doesn't use my settings in my config.txt and it also creates its own config file with no extension (.txt) to it. I edited the new config (no extension) file and gave it 2 threads like the original (I have a dual processor system) and noticed that it read from it correctly. Probably just a simple fix and I doubt you will get any erronious results back from this minor bug. Friends help friends move.... REAL friends help friends move dead bodies. |
| SanderT 2003-10-24 10:46:05 | Hi, the autocli.sav seems to be writen right. But if I stop and start muon, it doesn't start at the autosaved state. Muon makes a new genome. bohicaseti's workaround works. mfg Sander |
| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-24 12:53:45 | OK, looks like I better not make that version public just yet. I should be able to do that Monday evening instead though. I think the error is just a trivial not-writing-the-right-filename, so renaming config.txt to config ought to work if you prefer the new version. It doesn't make any sense: that's why they call it "virtual" |
| [OCAU] badger 2003-10-26 15:15:42 | quote: actually I have noticed this for a few versions, 432d I think does it too. I just noticed the different results in results.dat and results.txt also.

| [OCAU] badger 2003-10-26 17:20:21 | further checking reveals the following: 1. v432b and v432d don't appear to have the results.txt error ( I didn't actually run v432c, but it should be safe). 2. from 109 v432e results I had here, 20 were rechecked. results.txt versions showed the first sim only, with 1/5 of the mpts. The total score the 109 was 23439.5 mpt (txt) and 49253.7 mpts (dat) with best results of 9.670644 and 9.5872.19 respectively. Fortunately these results haven't been submitted yet. I did send some over the weekend, but I don't think those machines have v432e yet. 3. my config.txt works fine 4. autosave is no worries today, although i notice if autosave file is called Auto.sav = not work, autocli.sav = works www.BadgerMotorsport.tk Proudly sponsored by GRX-Computers [This message was edited by [OCAU] badger on 2003-Oct-27 at 1:53.] [This message was edited by [OCAU] badger on 2003-Oct-27 at 1:54.] |

| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-27 05:08:03 | OK, I've debugged and recompiled again. I changed the way I handled the results-saving since the old way wasn't actually such a great way of doing it.

| John Kitchen 2003-10-27 07:57:09 | I'd suggest that each variant should have a unique identification, it's not good that there are now some number of different programs all claiming to be 4.32e Some discipline is required, I think! (What a novel idea ) |
| Stephen Brooks 2003-10-27 09:19:37 | I think I'd need to alternate letters - so maybe in future a,c,e... would be 'beta' versions but b,d,f... would be the released versions. In fact it's not as bad as it looks on the whole project, as I only update the main page plus the thing that makes those "version update" alerts appear, when this conversation-over-bugs is over. So as it's happened, just a few of the more keen people have ended up downloading the betas, and the majority of users will only be alerted to the 'good' version. But probably next time I'll make the "beta" status over here more explicit. It doesn't make any sense: that's why they call it "virtual" |
