Robin Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Rendering issue. Looks like the backbuffer isn't being cleared properly.Add this in the rendering procedure:```' fill it with blackDDS_BackBuffer.BltColorFill rec_pos, 0```Also; stop using outdated software. Use PV Origins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draken Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 To add that code you need VB6\.BTW this engine is very very very very VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY! VERY! Buggy…Dont expect to make a playable game with it... yes its that buggy.---------EDIT--------------BTW stop with the double / triple post there is a modify button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tic Tac Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 FINE, I'll start using origins, is this glitch fixed there, and how do i convert my previous items, tiles, paperdolls, sprites to origins format?

Ruins of Hell Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 1\. Yes it is. Origins is a complete rewrite, so chances are the bug won't be there.2\. No they aren't. Origins is a complete rewrite, so you can't transfer it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carim123 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 No, he's helping you more than anyone can help you really. Get with the times. Eclipse Evolution and Stable are gone. The Mirage Source itself is dying. Eclipse Origins is the only Mirage Source engine that is actually with the times.No, you don't have to do much.You might have to redo some maps, and input some items date, etc, but the Graphical and Musical side is practically effortless. You'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd just used Origins from the start, you know, when it was released over a year ago, then you wouldn't have this bloody problem. You have no one to blame but yourself.

Guest Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 @alsoforum:> I make sure about this thats the server messing up might just redownload it and add your maps to server and see if it orksAgreed. I just downloaded PV Stable and messed around with it. I did not seem to get any problems. But honestly, if you are new here you should try to convert to Origins before its too late. If you take the time to learn how to use it, you will progress very fast.If you are going to use Stable, expect to do things by yourself. As people have mentioned, no one really wants to help with an outdated engine. So as I said, you are going to find you are going to have to discover how to do things on your own…Which means....Logically, it makes more sense to convert to Origins anyway. Because if the only way you'll learn Stable, by working on your own, tinkering with the engine and using guess and check methods, it makes more sense to do that with Origins where you have people who are willing to confirm your research....Just saying....But yeah, if your truly a noob, convert to Origins before you find yourself hooked on stable.

Tic Tac Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 I was already hooked on stable, lol.anyways im on origins now and its sweet that you can make attack animations and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
