Fighter combat replay RCE bug.

geoschmo · #1 September 8th, 2003, 09:47 PM

I know a few people have seen this. I have seen people talking about it. The problem I am talking about only affects the combat replay. The game doesn't crash or anything but the replay is unplayable.

Does anyone have a good example of it that they can email to Malfador? Trying to get this one squished in the next patch.

I have seen this bug several times, and IIRC it have always been on warppoint attack.

It just happened (again), so I have a fresh example. Where exactly do I mail it ?

my dad paul45 emailed it to you a long time ago i will try and find it again (it was in clustercommand). it always has that FFFFFF in the error message.
goz had the solution of looking in the edge of the screen when you think its going to happen.

Mail your examples to [email protected]. A brief description of the problem is good so he knows which bug you are sending examples for. He might need your empire password too. Not sure about that. I always give it.

ok i talked with my dad again.
he said he had sent it to malfador.
malfador said "send me the turn".
dad did but without the password or saying the mod we are using (trek_Bab5 Mod).
no response from malfador.
