Title: Public test of the new Lackey. Test it out, if ye be brave...
Post by: Trevor on October 11, 2010, 06:33:15 AM
I am posting the new version of Lackey now. This is not an official release. I completely redid the networking, among other things, and I'm not completely sure that everything is working. Since this is not a full official release, there are a few extra things you should know...

If you aren't slightly adventurous, you might want to ignore this. You need to take a few more (albeit simple) steps to get things working.

I am just releasing the application, not the whole Lackey folder. All you need to do is unzip this version and put it into an existing Lackey folder. Note that you need not delete your old Lackey exe.

The old Lackey and old Lackey Server will continue to work exactly as it did before.

When using the new Lackey, you will need to connect to the Lackey server directly. In the server panel, you will need to enter in the IP 66.65.20.193 and use port 25712. Note that the new Lackey uses a new default port of 25712 for the server to connect to. You don't need to change any of your firewall settings because of this though.

The old Lackey and the new Lackey are completely incompatible. But if you see someone on the server, you can be assured that they are using the new Lackey. But if you try to direct connect to someone's game without using the server, if they aren't using the new Lackey, it won't work.

If you are hosting a game without using the server as a proxy server (which you should try to do), you need to open both TCP and UDP ports. The old Lackey requires you to just open the TCP port.

Although I have tested things and things appear to be working, stuff might not work. That's the whole point. Please report bugs in this thread.

One of the new things is accounts and account registration that I am testing. As such, I am issuing all testers temporary accounts. You do NOT need to make an account, but doing so allows you to save your name so no one else can use it. If you want a temporary account, email trevor@lackeyccg.com with "Lackey Account Request" as the email title. Email me your account name, email address, and a temporary password that you want. These accounts are temporary and they will get wiped when I make the new Lackey version the official version.

I will try to keep the server up all the time. If things are majorly screwed up, I will post in this thread about it and the new server may be down in that case.

There are several new features which I will list later, but right now I am mostly concerned with making sure the previous functionality is restored.

I am particularly interested in hearing if the new version simply does not launch, or if it crashes, or things of that nature. If you experience a bug, please let me know as much specific information as possible so that I can fix it.

I tested some stuff with Alash. There are a few minor bugs. "Add X" counters to a card is buggy, but incrementing counters with the + button works fine. And Reveal X cards functionality has a few bugs. I'll fix those bugs as well as any other bugs I get a report on and post a new version tomorrow.

Don't forget to fix the bug where putting card(s) on top or bottom does the opposite thing.

Also I'm not sure having you manually create accounts is the ideal solution to the issue of unique IDs. Wouldn't it be easier for both parts if the box where you fill in your name checked the server if that name is already taken?

Other than that I'm already liking the new patch.

The top/bottom issue is part of the Reveal X bug I mentioned. I am still figuring out how I will handle account creation automation.

The new Lackey does not work under Linux with wine anymore.
It crashes with this message:

Runtime Error!

R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's supprt team for more information.

That's not good news. I'm not testing linux at the moment. At present, linux isn't officially supported. I'll try to make sure at least WINE works.

The new PM works like so. There are 2 ways you can private message someone. Either select their name in the player list and hit the Send whisper button, or do a command like "/t Trevor" to start whispering to trevor. /w also works. You don't need to type in their entire name.

Trevor, any news on the official release date (so that everyone stop using the old version)?
As soon as I'm sure there are no crippling bugs. I'm not aware of any in the current posted build. Take a look. Play some games and see if you notice anything. The server has been stable, but I am wondering if its just because it hasn't had enough activity.

Just downloaded.

One bug I have noticed, that is game specific, so it may be the plug-in.

I load the game and go into the Deck editor, If i don't have the cards downloaded in some cases it will crash when I go to look at the cards.  Magic and Doomtown work fine downloading images, but L5R and Magi-Nation both have crashed several times.  Yu-Gi-Oh crashes in Deck Editor but will download using download missing images.

This may be just me, so someone may want to try to duplicate.

Rage works fine.

B5... times out.  There's a slight typo in the plugininfo list (B5 needs to be capitilised in the URL) but even connecting to the right one leads to failure - it times out.  Since I can access the updatelist.txt fine through a browser I have to assume there's a bug somewhere.  (It WAS working last time I tried so I don't think it's me... but I leave that option open!)

I got the same as Buck Trev. When you had the most recent out I went fine. Now, I cant connect to the server. My settings are correct with the port number and such, double checked with the thread and everything, but now can't get on with most recent version.

That should never happen again. If it does, let me know. The only time you should see the starving for a pulse message is if you pull out your internet cord or something like that where you lose your internet connection in an unusual way.

How exactly did you "get it working"?

That "bug" where you see different cards is because you are not using the same version of the plugin. In other words, one of you has more cards than the other. Run autoupdate and relaunch and you should both see the same number of cards in the deck editor. I will make lackey give a clear warning about players not having the same version of the plugin. On the plus side, if you have a particular printing of a card in your deck, your opponent will see exactly the version of the card you chose rather than merely a card that shares the same name.

I'm sorry, I worded that wrong. I didn't mean that I got it working, I just meant that it was working now thanks to you sending me the other link. Anyways...I know my plugin is completely updated because I have all the way up to the most recent set. And they said that they had just reupdated the plugin to make sure. Also, it wasn't that they had the same name, it was completely different cards, dunno if that makes a difference.

Cards are now assigned card ids, internally. Your lackey will tell their lackey that you have a card # 315. As long as you both have the same version of the plugin, your card 315 is the same as theirs. Please look in your deck editors and tell me how many total cards each of you have listed there. If they are the same, and you see mismatch names, there is a bug. If there is a different count, the person with the lower number needs to update.

Define "soon".  ;)
Some people have reported not even being able to launch Lackey. I am not going to release the new lackey as the official version with a major problem like that. I think it will be fixed in a day or 2.

There's been additional bugs that prevent the game from even launching in some situations. Trevor is I believe, working to resolve that before declaring an "official" release of the new version and doing away with the old.

I tried making the new lackey the official release, but I had to revert back. I'll continue fixing bugs and make it the new official release as soon as I fix some issues.

FYI, the autoupdate for both the new and old lackey is now broken. This only affects Lackey itself. The plugin updating within lackey is still working fine.

Right-clicking cards in a zone and choosing 'send to bottom of' sends them to top instead.

Two more bugs:
In deck editor, load a deck with a sideboard, then select the sideboard tab
Then, load a deck without a sideboard. You should see the cards from the previous deck's sideboard
Start clicking these cards that shouldn't be in this sideboard, and lackey crashes soon after.

'discard X at random' puts cards into the graveyard, but doesn't remove them from the hand.
If the discarded cards are moved to a new zone, however, their duplicates in the hand dissapear.

Can you give us any idea how close the new ver will be released? Looking forward to playing when people are actually on. You were close a few days ago so I'm hoping it wont be to long and I know I'm not the only one.

i currently have the 10/16/10 verion of lacky as well as the 10/14/09 version and every time i try to sign in on either one it says that it doesnt work, nothing about a server being down so how can i connect to the lackey server?

Post by: Trevor on October 22, 2010, 04:53:51 AM
Please test these. If enough people are testing these and there are no major bugs I will post this as the official version tomorrow. I will not make the new version official until it is tested, so please test these.

The links for the windows and mac version applications are:
http://lackeyccg.com/LackeyCCGWin.zip
http://lackeyccg.com/LackeyCCGMac.zip

Remember, to connect to the new server, connect to the server by IP: 66.65.20.193 and port: 25712. Remember, that is not the normal default server port the old lackey used. I will keep the test server online unless I post here. I will only take it down if there turns out to be a crippling networking bug.

I downloaded the new version.  When I unzipped the file, I notice I still only have one folder (from the previous version) named "LackeyCCG" on my OSX mac.  When I attempt to browse the images/avatars file from within the new lackey, there are no items in the directory, and no items in the images/backgrounds or images/zonebackgrounds either.  I downloaded the latest Magic plugin and it works well, but I noticed the plugins folder containing the magic plugin is on my desktop, rather than in some lackeyccg folder like it is in the previous version.

I experienced the same problem as Grandpa, but mine also refuses to update the plugin. I've ran the update 3 times, and when closing the program and reopening it, it still won't let me in the deck editor or anything. When I reopen Lackey, I still see the same screen, with the same plugin loaded up everytime (lbs or something like that) I see no evidence of any of the plugin attempts working in the new Lackey, and my old Lackey (the beta, 10-14-09) won't even open.

Sound was not working for me, with 10-23 on a mac. While Lackey was closed, I opened secure/Preferences.txt and changed the line SOUNDOUTGOINGENABLED:1 to SOUNDOUTGOINGENABLED:0. Then I reopened Lackey and sound worked. It even worked if i changed that setting back. Maybe I did something else weird that fixed it, I don't know for sure.

Once sound started working, it still played chat sounds even if I turned chat sounds off.

I tried this method, and nothing worked. I do believe it was something other than the changing of SOUNDOUTGOINGENABLED. If anyone else figures out a more concrete method let me know here or on the servers.

Bugs in the 10-23 build, observed on mac:
I cannot move cards between zones (except into play) by dragging them into the zone. When I start dragging a card, it gets highlighted and becomes semi-transparent, as normal. But when I drop it in another zone, it stays transparent and doesn't move. Nothing shows up in the game log. Dragging cards onto the tab with the name of a zone seems to work okay.
Spawned cards do not disappear when they are moved to another zone through the right-click menu. The log says they cease to exist (if they were moved from play), but they are still there, and they count towards the size of the zone. If I move a spawned card between two zones other than play by dragging it, it does cease to exist, but nothing shows up in the log.
If I move cards between zones through the right-click menu, the sizes of zones does not update until I do something else that causes it to refresh, like drawing a card.

I believe all of this was working before, and I can't reproduce it on another instance, but it is occurring consistently - relaunching Lackey doesn't help.

I wasn't able to reproduce this first bug. How exactly are you moving them? Remember that there are so many ways to do everything, you need to be very specific. For example, you said "But when I drop it in another zone...". Did you drop it on the zone tabs (the player stat tabs, the below table tabs, or the right of table tabs)? Did you drop it onto the field where you see the cards? The bottom one or the right one?
If you can figure out a way to reliably reproduce the bug, and I can repeat it, I can surely fix it.

I'm dropping the cards onto the field where you see the cards. Bottom or right, doesn't matter. I poked at it a little more and figured out that the problem occurs when AUTOCLEARCARD is 1.

I find it a bit strange that you are one of the only people to experience the disconnect bug and the need-to-run-as-admin issue. I wonder if they are actually related. After you ran windows updater, did you restart your computer? You may need to for things to take effect.
