Rawr (v2.3.23 released on 9/12) - Page 57

Yes, but not a specific date, rather a specific point of progress... We've got quite a few new models in progress, and we want to release b15 once they're all solid enough for initial release. (Also, edited that last post to be a little less abrasive... Still, don't independently develop models, please).

I know it's been a while since we've had a new release. There's just so much new work going on for Rawr, it's hard to find a good stopping point.

I am working in a Investment Bank were everything is about time-to-market. That makes me used to very frequent changes. 80/20 is good enough for most of the things, but in case of theorycraft I think better be as good as possible.

I don't really understand what you said, but anyone who really wants new Rawr now, you can always grab the latest source code and build it yourself (MS Visual C# Express is free).

I think he's saying that there's no need to rush things with a TC tool (although releasing things 80% complete can be perfectly viable in other "markets") like Rawr

Ah. "Take your time, get it right." Thanks.

I use the Rawr.Retribution models avidly (I don't believe this issue has any correlation to the specific model), and I'm very grateful for all the work that everyone has done on this program, in all the models. Thanks a lot guys.

The problem at hand is some sort of image issue. I don't know where you're gonna get the info needed to understand/fix the problem so I'll walk you through every step.

When I update the item cache in the tools menu, I then get an error when I click on the shoulders icon (I believe there are probably others in different sections and from what I see I think this issue is linkd to one of the new sunwell shoulders, possibly demontooth shoulderpads) saying:

"Rawr encountered an error while attempting to load a saved image. If you encounter this error multiple times, please ensure that Rawr is unzipped in a location that you have full read/write access, such as your Desktop, or My Documents."

It is in fact unzipped onto my desktop. I hit OK, and it brings up a box titled "FormItemSelection" which reads:

"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Parameter is not valid."

It also gives me a details box which was rather long, so the link below will take you to a google doc that has it, and probably has the info you need.See the end of this message for detai...

Tyrannix, the first error might be due to a known (and pretty easy to circumvent) issue that's actually not Rawr's fault but the official Armory's, I pointed out ways to fix it several pages back and the official reply with a link about how to fix it can be found on page 32:

basically Rawr downloads images from the armory which are corrupted on Blizzard's end and throws this error, you can make a mock-up image and replace the bad images in Rawr's cache and it should work again

There is a fix in which will be available with the next release.

Tyrannix · 07/05/08, 7:20 PM

I must have missed it. Thanks a bunch for your help! Still no ETA on next Rawr release date?

I don't know if someone came up with this yet, but would be good to have an option to save the armory profile to rawr, so you don't have to put your name and server everytime you want to "download" your gear from the server.
Like a drop down menu with the 5 last armory characters that I did "download".
I know you can save your setup, but I want to save the armory profile to rawr.
Sorry, my english is not so good, but I hope you understand.

cbags · 07/11/08, 12:13 PM

Once you have your character loaded, go to File->Save and save it under your whatever name you'd like. Then when you load it up, you go to File->Select your name and what you saved is loaded, along with all of the gear that you have identified as being available to you in the optimizer I believe.

If you have a saved character you want to reload there is an option under the Tools menu (Reload current character from armory). It is not quite the same thing, but you can reload any character.

Astrylian · 07/11/08, 12:16 PM

Negoveio, you can already do what you want, I think. From a saved character, you can refresh its data from the Armory using Tools > Reload Character From Armory. (I think that's the right name, don't have it in front of me at the moment, something close to that)

EDIT: Damn. Beaten x2. That's what I get for trying to post while on conference calls, only typing like one word every few min, I guess.
RE-EDIT: Err, only Beaten x1! First response wasn't about that tools menu item.

cbags asked me a question via PM, but has incoming PMs disabled so I can't respond... Hope he looks here, or anyone elses finds it helpful:

I am still troubled by the bug when trying to edit an item(mainly to regem, or add a regemmed version of an item to the DB).

thanks again.

Try updating to the latest version of the .NET Framework, that's fixed it for several people.

Negoveio · 07/11/08, 2:14 PM

yeah thanks, thats what I wanted
