Actually, DoA found out that desyncs do not happen cause of memory edits, or at least aga's desyncs.
They happened because there was random actions called in the iscript. And when those random actions where executed inside the fog of war cause sc to desync as it couldn't know what action was really called (I have no idea if I made sense).

Anyway, it was because of iscript, that's what I am saying rand_condjump I think.
That means all we need to do is edit the iscript.bin a bit and Project Miranda will stop desyncing. That means we can play that mod without running the risk of insanity!

Anyone want to volunteer for this? If you can get this done before Midnight Modnight Madness then you will officially be the most awesome person ever (and I'll mail you a box of cookies?)

Well, the mod is basically the iscripts. Modifying it would mean that you'd lose a part of the mod itself.
Believe me, if DoA and Aga didn't find a way to fix it none of us will :P



fuck you all

So it's not just a matter of revmoving the randcordjumps? Randcordjump is so overused that removing instances of it would cause the mod to collapse?

What does randcordjump do anyway?

EDIT: (I should really look that up instead of showing everyone how long it's been since I've modded anything)

From what DoA's saying it should be too difficult.

Quote from MSN
(4:07:22 PM) DoA: yeah. since fog of war doesn't run animations for buildings as far as I know.
(4:07:55 PM) scwizard: oh so if you use __1e_condjmp on a building you can get desyncs?
(4:08:00 PM) scwizard: but as long as you use it on units you're fine?
(4:08:09 PM) DoA: yeah, I think so.

DoA found out how to fix it, it wasn't that complicated.

DoA told Aga. Aga went like "I'm not going to listen very closely, and am then going to disappear from SEN kthxbye"

Er, someone please tell me the last time it desynced, seeing as how I've played several multiplayer games of it recently (as in, this school year) and it's never had problems. Are you people using the correct version?...

If you're having problems with PM 1.3, running on SC 1.14, then tell me what's going on and I'll try to fix it before vanishing again.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
