Hmm, that's the same version of ResHacker I have.

My full paths are:

I don't know what happened with the oscillators, I've recompiled the program and now it works. This is possibly a problem with Delphi 2007. I've uploaded a new zip-file of the 1.02 version. ResHacker still works for me. Try deleting the ResHacker.ini - file and see if that helps. If not, check out ...

I think something happened in the soft synth in this version. I don't see any different waveforms for the oscillators.

Also, ResHacker is having problems now. It's saying:
External Exception C000001D

I'm currently having a problem with the RemoveAllModels command. For some reason I can't get it to delete my EmitterBall model. In the preview window I have to press C a few times to get it to disappear. In an exe I have to press it 20+ times or so. If I use SpawnStyle Clone for the EmitterBall, Rem...

Re: ZGameEditor 1.01

Changes: - RenderText behaviour changed: You can now set both Text and TextFloatRef properties. The float-value is then appended to the end of the text, instead of replacing the text. Previously you had to use two separate rendertext components to displaying for example "SCORE: 2000". The...

MeshSphere or a new type of sphere primitive could be generated in spherical coordinates instead of cylindrical coordinates to make the ends less pointed. Yes this would be a good idea. You do not happen to know a good algorithm for triangulating a sphere? Hmm, I think it would be almost the same a...

a few bugs and things

I was working on another project today and I made some notes on some things. Most of the bugs you've probably already seen. 3/20/2007 MeshSphere or a new type of sphere primitive could be generated in spherical coordinates instead of cylindrical coordinates to make the ends less pointed. When render...

Is it posible to add shapes in Mesh.Producers?

I was just putting together a simple Mesh, trying to make a cross shape. I was thinking I could put two MeshBoxes under a single Mesh.Producer and they would just overlap. From experimenting with the Producers it seems like you are allowed to have one generator like a box, sphere or implicit and the...

Ok, thanks for looking at my coordinate test. One thing I would like to fix is that I use the mouse button to switch between the two AppStates but it switches so fast back and forth you can't really control it. What would you suggest for that? Maybe setting a variable to the current time and then no...

bug in RenderText.TextFloatRef or RenderTransform.Translate

This was an odd bug I saw when I was putting together a coordinate test program. I attached the file below. Under States - ViewModelCoord : AppState - OnRender - CirclingCoordinate : Group - Children - ShowX : RenderText in the TextFloatRef field I entered MovePoint.Translate.X. When I click off tha...

Suggestion for Lock preview

I think the editor is pretty easy to use overall. The only thing that isn't entirely intuitive is the Lock preview function. I figured out that an object is locked if the name is bold but unlocking it isn't obvious. If possible I think it would be much simpler to have a button on the toolbar to lock...

Ah, Ok!

Sorry, for some reason my mind wasn't thinking that the -= operation was happening between every frame so it would happen 100 times a second at 100fps and 10 times a second at 10fps. That makes sense now.

The Hello World tutorial gives a good introduction to putting together a program. I think it would be good to explain the screen coordinate system when you start animating the text. My understanding is that the center is 0,0 the bottom left is -1,-1 and the top right is 1,1. This makes a non-square ...

Hi I just went through the tutorials and I think overall they are very good and easy to follow. I'll just comment on tutorial 3 here. When creating the PlayerModel you set CollisionBounds = 0.5 0.5 but there are four fields and you don't explain what each field is. When you add the KeyPress Keys = ^...
