mcjaco Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) God Bless China. I'm going to leave my TEST file in there for now as a bookmark when we changed over with whatever they fixed.

mcjaco Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 Things I've noticed in the last ten minutes: - Game and File Type must be entered for upload. - When editing and entry through the Admin side, the default thumbnail is lost on the Exchange side, and defaults to the Game type pic.

robbalvey Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 This is a bit of an odd bug: http://www.themeparkreview.com/game_exchange/track.php?id=496 No username is attached to it! How the hell did someone do that??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 That is weird. I think we need to make Name, User, Game, Category, and Description mandatory fields. Otherwise it'll turn into a mess. And thank you for your, "Describe the problem" post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Why are some people saying that they download the tracks and they don't work? Have you tried downloading the same ones that guy said didn't work to see if he's just full of shit or there is really a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) I've tried the RCT3 ones. I'm not having any issues. There does seem to be a delay in the download. Like it doesn't complete, even when it says it is. If that makes sense?? I only have an old NL demo, which won't let you add other tracks. I just got through page 31.

mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Sweet. Let me go try.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 OK downloaded Peaktime which is a nltrack. That downloaded, and worked. Tried Il Pitone which is a nlpack. That did not work..... Wonder if it has to do with the Track Packager these guys talk about??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 ^ Not sure. But we should probably figure it out before it goes live officially. I do want to make sure that the files we are uploading don't have any weird issues, like something got corrupted along the way. Do you think there is any of the games forum people you could PM and see if they can do some testing by saying like "download 100 different tracks at random and let me know if some of them don't work..."

mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 OK, I just downloaded three random nltracks. They all work. Three random nlpacks....not working. Let me look into the Track Packager and I'll check them again. If that doesn't work, I'll start PM'ing the regulars. I've got to go eat some lunch first!

robbalvey Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 FYI - Next thing I'm having the china company add is the "required add-ons" for tracks. So if people need Soaked or the track packager, we'll be able to denote that. It will mean having to go into each file we've already uploaded and adding it for those that require something additional, but we'll only have to do it once.

mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Sounds good. I'm not sure I have this Track packager thing installed right. I've been fighting with it all afternoon. But it's definitely one of the major problems. nltrack files are working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 OK, didn't have the track packager installed correctly. Il Pitone is now the only one I'm having issues with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Matt - looks like they "add-on" stuff was added tonight. Haven't looked at it yet, but you should be able to do it in the admin panel just like game type. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) OK, added Loopy Landscapes, Wacky Worlds, Time Twister, Soaked and Wild. I think adding the Forum Link will be nice. Edited December 13, 2010 by mcjaco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 ^ Do you think it might be worthwhile sending a PM to like the top 20-30 games forum posters saying we really really need their help and can they focus some attention on helping to test?

mcjaco Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) That was my next suggestion. Let me peruse the Forum and come up with a list. I can think of about a dozen off the top of my head. coasterdude5 dmaxsba2408 Dotrobot CorkscrewFoley AJClarke0912 djbrcace1234 FeelTheFORCE braztaz coasterfreak101 Angry_Gumball Coupon Mr. Starr jarmor Ccron10 Edited December 13, 2010 by mcjaco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I just checked on both IE and FireFox. If you login with the same name, but add random caps, you cannot edit. Remember on FireFox, when you login, it will try to auto-correct your login name. You have to force it with the caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Oh dear...seems like the crazies have picked up on the exchange: http://www.coastercrazy.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=25070 I haven't seen if they were talking about it in another thread, but obviously they must have if he's posted that.

mcjaco Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 Robb, wondering if we could make the "Add Ons" text a different color so it stands out a bit more. I've been going in and editing anything that requires the NL TrackPackager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Shouldn't be a problem. What color would you like to make it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
