Try this: drop this version into your rc3 directory (Note**You cannot use the ZCLauncher to start zc unless you rename it) and set win_proc_fix = 1 in the config file before you run it.

Download: http://www.mediafire...gq5xx/rc3.1.zip
Side Note: The only changes from this build are extra debugging info and a modified DrawLayer() . This is not a replacement for rc3 so use the download link in the first post if you haven't downloaded it yet. This will not run without it.

Ok I tried my DrawLayer test again. DrawLayer() now works MUCH better. The performance seems to be more inline with what I would expect and transparent pixels work. In addition it seems that culling now works as well. Also the coordinate space is also proper now. Rotating seems a little weird but I'll have to look into that more. All in all, very nice improvements.

Should I test DrawScreen() as well? Or has that not been touched yet?

I'm pretty certain Saffith replied to you.

Oh wait, whoops. You're right. Didn't see the first part of the post. Thanks. :3

Layer arguments not equal to 0 still don't work and screen layers > 0 are not drawn yet so please be patient and work around that issue for now. Otherwise there should be about a 3x speed increase from calling drawcombo.



Anyone test the proposed threading issue fix yet? (In case it got buried in the last page) http://www.mediafire...gq5xx/rc3.1.zip

I switched just because the Windows Aero thing is fixed :3

Thanks for letting me know, I can work around that by changing the map directly so that's actually not a big deal. Thanks for such a quick turn around.

DrawLayer seems to work better now with RC3.1 but it seems that it only can draw Layer 0 just like DrawScreen only seems to draw Layer 0. Will this be fixed?

Gleeok mentioned that this is still a problem and will be fixed.

In the meantime you can get around the problem with DrawLayer() by changing the map you are drawing from. You can get the Layer map from a screen using Screen->LayerMap(layer_num). There's a similar function for getting the LayerScreen as well.

Thanks that is what i will do then. That is a very good idea i must have been too stuck up with the feature to even think about that. Thank you!

[Orithan]

Your code doesn't actually do anything.

CODE

                    if(LttP_Tunic_Defense*4 >= nme->Damage/LttP_Tunic_DMG_Reduction_Factor){ //Reduce the enemy's physical attack.
                        nme->Damage/LttP_Tunic_DMG_Reduction_Factor;
                    }
                    else{
                        nme->Damage - LttP_Tunic_Defense*4;
                    }

Those should be /= and -=

I did that and it worked. Thanks, I never saw that you had to do that .

I think what's happening there is that the game is being run in a sandbox. Probably something your antivirus software did automatically (Avast?). If that's the case, you'll just need to tell it ZC is safe.

I thought i might ask here is there a way to change the cset of a combo without rebuilding the whole combo alias? I realize that you can build up a combo alias by combos each using different csets but wouldnt it be possible to increase the cset of all combos in an alias by pressing + like in normal mode(of course after that modulo the number of csets)? Same should be possible for lowering csets shouldnt it? I am asking because building each combo alias for each cset is a lot of work. This would make it a lot faster.
One reason i am asking is because i spent several hours now building combo aliases in the wrong cset before realizing that for combo aliases one cannot change cset.

So far, both programs hang every time, and have to be closed with the task manager.

At the moment, it's not possible. It might not be hard to add; I'll look into it.

Set zc_win_proc_fix and zq_win_proc_fix to 0 in ag.cfg. If that doesn't help, try setting disable_direct_updating to 0.

thank you for looking into it if its really possible to change it by + and - like with normal combos that would be so cool
