I really want to test the tools. What I have now is working and I would like to keep a back up version of my current s3pe, S3OC and s3pi. Is there a way to do that?  Thank you for your time. |

Unless you're on the QA versions already, what you have now won't work with Ambitions. How long does it take just to reinstall? Usually takes me about ten seconds. |

You could use manual install versions (links remain in closed threads) and simply run the version you want by double clicking on the .exe inside the folder. |

That's what I tend to use, so I can carry these programs around on a memory stick. |

Oh - having looked again, it seems the TGI block isn't in the outer bit, you have to go into the RCOL chunk and find it in there. |

umm say what? the VPXY's has 2 TGI's 1 in the outer bit to refere to external files and 1 in the chunkEntries that identifies itself only. The outer TGIBlock is the bugged entry. |

What do you mean by "2 TGIs"? The one I just looked at had 11 TGI blocks. Anyway is this something that has only worried you in this or a recent version? Were you happy with how it was in an earlier version? Ok please give me the resourcekey of an example of a VPXY you don't think is displaying correctly in the grid. I have even opened some in the editor and they are showing me the same as the grid does. |

Inge I don't mean 2 entries , I mean 2 LAbels, 2 areas etc that say TGIBlocks 1 is on the main grid page and the second is under ChunkEntries, If you select the VPXY and click Grid a window pops up and says :
Ok I found a third set of TGIBlocks ( not the data but that many labels that say that) But am I going crazy or didn't the outermost TGIBlock used to carry the resource list? |

Well if it doesn't, it doesn't. The "helper" editor agrees with the grid from what I have tested so far so I am not sure exactly what tool you were referring to by "I have to use the resource editor to view them." |

the resource editor is the helper editor. I need to just find a nice white padded room, I'm tired of dealing with EA |

Just wanted to let you know that in mono 2.6.4, S3PE seems to work significantly better than a few months ago (I think I had mono 2.6.1 at that time). I don't know if that's due to changes in mono or in your code, and I haven't tested it very much, but I can open and browse packages now and export and import stuff without any lagging or crashing so far – if this is due to the newer mono, I think you could update your note in the release download post to indicate that OS X users might want to give it another try now. I need to run it with the Carbon driver (which is the default anyway), otherwise the menus at the top behave very erratic. I haven't updated x11 in a long time though. I used the version from this thread, not the release, and I'm on OS X 10.5.8. |
