The news page wasn't parsing BBCode, as Cube and I originally didn't see a need for it and would format our initial posts with HTML as needed. I modified the script to utilize BBCode. Should work on the main page now.

Create new game pages for popular and notable games (games do not have to be popular or notable to be included on the wiki, but those are the most important ones)


Found this under the list of things to do with the wiki. Perhaps some interprising soul could compile a listing for each game found in JSH's most recent top 30?

That would be pretty bad ass. Then anyone going to the OHR for the first time could see which games, we, the people who have been around forever, think are the best.

I love that concept.

What would be needed? Just a wiki page for each game and some s-shots? Kuz I could probably pull that off sometime.

Ubersetzung seemed to be really slow on my computer...
I'll probably stick with hasta till I am able to reformat.

Is there any way I can catch information when game.exe decides to crash on me? Seems to be happening more and more each day. Happened twice in a span of 5 minutes playing Tales of the New World. I just wonder if the problem is my computer or if its elsewhere.

I'm not sure if it'd be of any help, but you should be able to find a file called g_debug.txt in the same folder as your game.exe.

Unless it shows any info on the error while game.exe is running, then it isn't going to help unfortunately. Looking at it now, it has a little bit of info, but nothing I doubt is relevant to my problem.

Thanks for the tip though Razz

Hmm, where are you now? I'm figuring the more info they have the better, and if you let me know whereabouts this is happening I can tell if there are any complicated scripts going on (like during the war), or if this may be something else entirely.

I have a hard time believing that a reformat could affect the speed of the OHR. If the problem persists, please Post a Bug It would also help to know if you are using hasta-la-qb's game.exe or game-qb.exe

I just posted a debug build of ubersetzung game.exe and custom.exe. To take advantage of their delicious extra debugging ability, you need to install GDB, the GNU Debugger. I wrote out instrictions for installing and using GDB on Windows on the wiki

I am very interested to know if you can get any kind of backtrace when these crashes happen.

Thanks, I will try this out hopefully when I get off work this evening.

EDIT: I have GDB installed and it keeps saying no executable specified, use 'target exec' whenever I try to "run" it.

EDIT #2: It's strange...normal Uber's Game crashed on me again yesterday and then I decided to try the debug version....no crashes so far. I played for almost an hour as well...

Think the debug mod's code cleaned out whatever bug it was?

The fact that the crash does not happen when you use a debug version means that this bug is a memory corruption bug. In the debug version, the memory is arranged differently, so when it gets corrupted, there is a much greater chance that the corruption will damage the debug info instead of the actual game code, so the crash is avoided.

Frustrating.

I'll update the wiki to explain what to do when GDB says "No executable specified"
