/doublepost.

After reading through around 8 pages of this thread I got bored and
said screw it, I'll post it anyway. It doesn't seem reported to me so,

A lot of people complain that sometimes an account will go "corrupt" as in,
if someone were to make an account, login, play, logout, and then no longer has a
"working" password. That's what make it's "corrupt. I found out why and how to
fix it.

Problem: Account goes corrupt once player logs out, can no longer log in.
Why: The account name has a "white space" in it (eg press the space bar, that's a white space).
Solution: Strip out spaces.

To replicate problem: create an account with a space in it somewhere.

Hey Robin,

Put your hands in the air! (idk why i say that… whatever...)

I found a bug, after formatting my pc, the driver of my sound card was uninstalled (of course).
So when I run the Eclipse Origins (didnt try older versions cause i couldnt find them), I get this error:

| Run-time error '-2005401480 (88780078)':

Automation error |

This error with the title "Eclipse Origins", I can click [OK] or [X]…

( now I am going to play like I am a master in VB6 xD, watch it).
So I took my mouse in my hand, and the keyboard in my other hand(idk why that, i use the virtual keyboard 8o)
And got to open a lot of folders to get to the source file.
finally when i was there, I tried to run the client from the source.. and I got this:

| Set DS = DX7.DirectSoundCreate(vbNullString) |

This ^^^^ was marked in yellow in vb6, in modsound.bas
That sub have a lot with sound things, so got to think a lot, about the solution..
AND I Decided to install a driver for my sound card :D yippieeee :)
and it works  :cheesy: :cheesy: bigger Yipppieee (ok i will never do that)

[Please rate my story]

So my question is…..:

You know I have no hair, I mean its invisible, but its there on my head... So I decided a super idea again, I make a code.. This is what i made :D Yippieeeee (i swear this is the last time):

```
Private Sub cmdMakeHairVisible_Click()
Dim boynaar As Integer
On Error GoTo Hell

    boynaarHair.Visible = True

Hell:
    MsgBox "A bad database error has occurred.", vbCritical, Hell

End Sub

```But it dont work well… i get this all the ways.. and "this" is not hair on my head! :"(
A bad database error has occurred.

I thought it was a fluke but it happened again.

Someone was editing a map, saved and their map suddenly became an exact copy of map 1.
I haven't touched the source when it comes to map loading or saving or attributes.
Combat and character development are the only things i have messed with.

This time it seems to have blended the last map he saved along with the current one he was saving.
The fluke saves to server. deleting the files client side and reloading gives you the same map again.

Both times were on the same pc(Win7).
I also use a win 7 machine but have never seen this.
Is there anyway I can determine if this is the source or the machine itself?

That is really strange. We've done a hell of a lot of mapping on Crystalshire with the default Origins mapping system and it's all gone swimmingly ('scept for Anna consistently forgetting to save changes and causing server-side syncing issues).

The map saving system hasn't changed since 2001, either. I'm afraid to say it's going to have to be down to something you've added. Just because it isn't directly a part of the map system doesn't mean it won't affect it. Everything is interlinked.

yeah but I have been going along fine for months with no changes… new guy has have this happen 2 times in 3 days... im thinking its his pc but no idea what to check...
Apparently its not when saving either...
He was just walking through a house and BAM it saved some random tiles from his last save again but in the current map.
I am sure its his pc but no idea why lol

we are only seeing it on one specific machine… it has to be something related to how the pc is processing things. my guess is you are using win 7.  win 7 isnt guaranteed to work with vb. there is something not working right but meh. my one guy just backs up maps before doing anything lol

I guess only a brit could report this:

Using "£" in a global message i.e. '£ will not work, the message will simply disappear and not appear in the chatbox, not to you or anyone else.
