<mark> 'The Kansas City Shuffle Shuffled' uploaded by mark: Have fun I'm sure you will find a shorcut. |
 |
<mark> Nice solve Jim ....TKCS I have been playing around with this level all day . I could not get what I had wanted but something similar. Only just finished it but I had not seen your speedrun then. I'm just going to throw it out there without testing as no time left. |

<Jim> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 89 moves (old: 214). Another tough level, I'm glad I spotted a shortcut. <mark> 'The Kansas City Shuffle' uploaded by mark. |

<mark> 'Chasing Geraldine again' uploaded by mark: An easier first room version on it's way as well. Hugbot skills not required. |

<mark> Nice solve Jim and of course a different way. Just solved a level in the old version and them bookmarks make a big difference. I think there is about ten obvious levels out there for me to do but they are against a timer. The new bookmarks will help me polish them off. Just got to find them. Cheers to escape !! by RAINKING a fine example of why yoy need more bookmarks. On my first play through lots of hard things to learn but did not realise the timing element . I'd bookmarked at the end so I can now just go back and tighten up all the elements. I know I could have just created numerous accounts to get through this problem but then remembering which was which was to tedious. Anyhow I got the old version to play the malformed levels (thanks Dave for info) and to tell the truth can see no difference in play to the new one. So you did do yourself a favour not updating. Ps Nearly finished a new mod of a very easy triage level , should be fun. <Jim> (SPOILER) I can't even imagine only being able to have one bookmark per level, that is a pretty significant problem. I read through most of the feedback section and it is still not clear to me if Tom is aware of the problem. Mark, I can't believe you have been solving these levels all this time without that advantage, that's pretty impressive. |

<Jim> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 676 moves (old: 768). Another good mod. |

<Dave> Actually, thinking back, I seem to remember that noname nailed the bookmark bug. It certainly all made sense at the time anyway. I have no idea whether he managed to compile a fixed version though... <Dave> Hi Jim. Tom is already well aware of the 'bookmark bug' in latest version. I think it only applies to the Windows install anyway, the compilations for other platforms are still based on the old version without the bug. I can't remember all the differences but there aren't many. Here's the few I can recall: 1. Bookmark bug!; 2. Teleport animation; 3. Anti-radiant sanity testing. Unless someone can get the source to compile debugging it is irrelevant anyway. I've tried in numerous verions of VC++ (including 6.0 which it was originally written in, I beleive) with various versions of the SDK libs and got nowhere. Then again, I've only ever been a semi-professional programmer at best (except ASM, and that's been a while) so if Tom can't do it I'm probably pi**ing in the wind. noname and wowei are pretty on to it and might be able to help... I'm stumped. <Jim> (SPOILER) You should probably let Tom know about that, I'm sure he is probably unaware and could probably fix that pretty easily. I knew there must have been a reason I never upgraded Escape! <mark> Nice one Jim just tried the older version and I can have as many bookmarks as I want. In the newer version if you make a bookmark at a certain point then go a bit further and want to make a new bookmark it just ignores you. You have to delete the old one to get a new one. So it always keeps your mistakes and if you have found something really hard later on I'm to reluctant to delete it in case i cant remember what I did. I guess I'm going to play the harder levels in the old version from now on. Thanks... <Jim> (SPOILER) Thanks for the answer Dave, I thought I had looked under the deleted file but obviously I did not. Mark, congrats to getting down to 200 levels, I'm sure you will get almost all of them in the future. I'm a bit surprised about your question of saving more than one bookmark per level, I can save as many as I want and for the hard levels its common for me to have it bookmarked at 7 different points. What happens to you when you try to save a second bookmark for a particular level? If it doesn't work for you, the only thing I can think of is that we have different versions, I still use the 200704130 version, I've never updated it. |

<mark> Correction 2233/2433 <mark> (SPOILER) Hi Dave glad to see you back , hope things are going well for you. Thanks for answering Jim's question that was correct. Jim nice to see you that finally got the mars done and of course you would go a different way. I had solved it simalar to that after posting level but I still did the bottom right button trick. As for Bob 18 I've got a bookmark at 1250 moves but its got far to many early mistakes in it and my motivation for the level has dropped a bit. Will probably have a fresh look at it next week . Is there a way to have more than one bookmark per level? Had a busy patch of making levels and mods and I'm out of ideas for the momment,but you need not worry Jim as I've had a level waiting for you for a while Jumble IV. When I put the hugbot in pressing yellow was meant to(I thought at the time)make it impossible. So I've just deactivated yellow switch so now you can't press it. Ps my triage reads 2233/2243 only 200 to go. Lots of large screen levels and quite a few from Carlin js still to solve before I'm totally stuck. |
