Guys, please update eechcentral.

Thanks Firebird!

Ditto!

+1. Enjoying the low tech Mi-24, though you could pick up my SA off the floor with tweezers.

Homefries, try using your motherboard as a toaster (again). That should take care of the SA.

Many thanks for this, and to everyone who has kept this going over the years - I only recently installed the game, and (knowing how old it was) expected my search for a 'final' patch to be not much more than a couple of tweaks and maybe an extra map. Sometimes it's good to be wrong!


I'm glad you said this - I was feeling guilty that my first appearance in 'EECH territory' was on the Mantis bug tracker complaining about stuff...

I note your remark on the other thread about a crash dump not being much help on its own so if you want me to do some tests with a debug exe, let me know.

I don't use that bug tracker, SimHQ forum and e-mail are enough for bugs I'm able to fix. As long as plenty programmers will choose which bugs to fix, it can be useful.
Now about your bug ("Create Font returned NULL (120)" in Win98 - right?).

The code showing that message calls CreateFontW and GetLastError returns 120. 120 is "This function is not supported on this system.". According to documentation the minimum supported OS for the function is Windows 2000.
I don't have Win98 and I don't know how to fix this behavior.
The only thing I changed in UI/fonts is clearing of cache files.

Looks like they only removed the 'antiques capability' a few months ago, too. I guess it was bound to happen at some point but at least you can know that it was Microsoft that broke it and not you!

Fortunately I can still boot into XP so in the end this is really only inconvenience, not fatal, so I can live with that.

Toaster? I thought you said Coaster!

Either way, that would smart-bomb every virtual bad guy in the game, though I'm not sure the virtual Hind has the EMP protection to survive that.

Hind electronics is lamps! It will survive any EMP!
