Try this and let me know if it helped please.

Code: [Select]

std::wstring temp = tr("STR_UNITS_PRODUCED");
_lstRequiredItems->addRow(1, temp);


No

And my fixed compiled, but I don't think it worked either... (see attached)

Windows 7, 64 bit.

Yes, everything.

He did? He mentioned that he had to get the x86 version, but I figured he simply had a 32-bit system...

Anyway, tried this now, it works. Thanks, guys!

I dont know why the 64bit version didnt work. I too had to use the x86 version before I could get it working and my system is 64bit windows.

Due to upgrade to 2.9 OXCE, the 'avatar instead of rank' function doesn't work so well anymore, as different races should have different avatars. Perhaps it'd be possible to add functionality to set the armor used as source, and xy offset for every soldier race separately?

EDIT: Done. New version is up.

v2016-03-17
  + Ability to define avatar position (per soldier type)
  + Ability to define armor for avatar in the ruleset

Code: [Select]

  - type: STR_SOLDIER
    costBuy: 20000
    costSalary: 5000
    armor: STR_NONE_UC
    armorForAvatar: STR_LOADER_ARMOR_UC #if not specified, currently worn armor will be used
    avatarOffsetX: 56 # default is 66
    avatarOffsetY: 50 # default is 42
...

Thank you I will try to add a playable race before your next recording. Doggies are out of question, without that 2-dog limit, massive homing-HE-pack-bombing will ensue But I'll try to cook something up. Maybe upgradeable Advisors (Mindprobe of Haste, some armor).

Meridians, just downloaded and tried the 2016-03-17 version of 2.9

I'm still getting the 'Not a Valid Win32 Application' Error.

You fixed this in the 2016-03-14 version - Why is it back?

PS - Can't find a copy of 2016-03-14 in the links, is it possable to get one?

It's back because I compiled it on a different computer (on notebook while waiting for a delayed flight )

The first post contains a link to an archive, you can get 2016-03-14 there.

Ah, so you'll fix it in the next release, great.

Huh, I thought that was just for old v2.5 archives.  Thanks.

Hi Meridian... I worked a bit more on that "cleaned" smoke that I showed you earlier, and toned down the movements alot.   Here is an animated .gif.



Let me know if this is closer to something you would like.

[Solarius Scorch]

Hi Meridian,

(yeah, there is more of us)

psycHoTik made this:

https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,4421.msg60888.html#msg60888

Can you please evaluate his code and if it's correct, perhaps include it in your build? Because impossibility to regulate vision ranges during the day is quite exasperating.

[Meridian]

Yankes wrote in his last update post on OXCE 3.0 something about scripts for unit visibility:

- scripts access to unit reactions and maybe visibility too

But I'll have a look and include it if it makes sense... I may contact you again regarding exact requirements.

[Solarius Scorch]

Thank you, effendi. Whenever you ask.

[Meridian]

New version's up.

v2016-03-25
  + Added support for visibility during day (per armor type), more info: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,4421.msg60977.html#msg60977
  + Some minor armor equip improvements, more info: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,2915.msg60964.html#msg60964
v2016-03-23
  + Added support for craft auto-patrol, more info: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,4228.msg60926.html#msg60926

Download in the first post.

I had a moment of enlightenment.

We could have weapon specific behaviour for kneeling. For example, snipers could get a bigger boost to accuracy for kneeling than other weapons. Autofire range could be extended when kneeling. Or snap range or aimed range. Think of the possibilities!

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this idea, but if you like it I'm sure you will tell the right person.

This is in TODO in next release of Extended.
