Tried to delete old files and use installer to get new version. Loaded up to the point that the load got an error.

Install error file Has one line:

Download file failed hash check "àœ”/", HTTP status: 200, Internal Error: "None"

Looks like a bad file somewhere in the update.

My install of the version posted on Sep 10, 2021 resulted in GGMax not launching. The error was "The code execution cannot proceed because VCOMP14DD.DLL was not found".

Please assist. Thx.

Obviously, in his rush to get it out on the day he said he would, Lee has missed a few things. I'm sure he'll sort it out when he can.

I had the 140.dll so copied and renamed to 140d.dll able to fire up gameguru max but launching test game is eating memory and not responding. Dont know if this is because of the rename or another problem. Wait for a fix I guess

You cannot just rename a DLL file .. There is more to it than that.
Best just to wait for Lee to sort the issue

Sorry for that last build. New update available, just run "C:\Program Files\GameGuruMAX\GameGuru MAX Updater.exe" and you should get the correct files. Work still happening on the server side so hope to have news on this next week.
GameGuru Classic will continue to be supported with bug fixes and functionality additions.

I got mine to work. I went to this link and download the 64bit version of the dll.

[MOD EDIT]

Then copy and pasted it into the " C:\Program Files\GameGuruMAX\Max" folder. Then Max started up. Stayed on a blank white screen with not responding displayed for a few seconds but finally started.


EDIT: or just listen to Lee ! He must have been posting as I was typing this so just ignore.

Ok I have the following errors occuring.

Number 1


Number 2


If I try and run MAX all is ok, until I click test game icon MAX freezes and then if I click anywhere, it white screens and I have windows options to wait or close program. Is it because of the failed download in error screen 1.....

new GG-MAX very long startup time...
Then when you press test game -- you fall immediately through terrain.
If I put down some floor panels and place start marker on them I can walk on floor panels..
but if there is a 1/4 inch gap you fall through the terrain.. if you step off the floor panels you fall through terrain..
If you put 1 as gravity on start marker and jump you rise into the clouds and at least get to see the terrain..
be nice if we could walk on it..

Okay, as far as falling through the terrain some of us are experiencing.
It was happening to me, but after the first initial map, if you open a new map that seemed to work for me.

I got it to work. I started a new map and selected what looked like the mountainous terrain of death valley. You can go to the top of a mountain and get in a cloud they're but kind of weird and grainy around the edges. But overall it's very nice, even though it takes a bit to start a map.

I did a new verify today.. then read Rector and the_blob reports and
did as they did and started a new map and WOW I am standing and walking on the terrain..
I have tried a few terrain types and they worked..

But at some points I did fall through the terrain...

Questions - 1. Are you allowed to walk on the terrain outside the Yellow edit box.. because every time I get near it I fall through terrain..
2- Are you allowed to place entities outside the yellow edit box.

There are gaps you can fall through that have been reported so they will be sorted.
Once you leave the editable area then you will fall through. This is just the way it is but 5km should be plenty

I kinda thought you edit on the 5k but can continue out the area but just procedural terrain nothing else. And they have a few ideas on edges of terrain as i asked in the questions. Im sure there may be some plans and options

Does anyone have a clue as too what this is... it appears in every map I try and I have no control over it's placement and no way to remove it.
I am using the current build 2021.09.10 (29.9GB). No major problems experienced at this time.

I'm not understanding the thought process behind being unable to go beyond the '5 KM' boundary (having no player collision). What's the point in having such amazing procedural rendering beyond this distance if the player can't traverse it? There are other ways of making a good looking distance view without having special terrain rendered for this. And why only one area that can edited? Might be better with say 5 x '1 KM' areas with the player able to walk, run, fly, move between them? Seems like a waste of all that effort in terrain composition, build and rendering to curtail the player to one, albeit pretty large, segment of it?

Cheers

Aahhhh brilliant idea cybernessence. Have 5 x 1km sections so you can have procedural between each 1 x km2
That way you can have ports or cities villages etc between areas makesnbetter for larger terrain without going over the 5km zone. Would be good for a space games too if you remove terrain in an option or a jet fighter game or helicopter etc etc. This does tap sooo much potential

Suggest you tune in to the wed youtube at 4pm and ask your questions. They will definitely be heard and replied to

I recall something about terrain being modular, so can add as many modules as you like, though.

Tried this morning but still, when I try test game MAX just hangs, no error messages. I guess Lee will be working on these terrain problems this week.

@m2design Yeah, I have seen that also. Perhaps something to do with light\particles generation for the scene.
Like the boundary lines it will eventually be hidden no doubt....
