[00:01] <snover> those KQ7 ones are just before switching to room 30 (the main menu) so not likely to be relevant
[00:01] <snover> and thats it for SCI32
[00:03] <snover> there could be some more with a different signature, like one that constantly assigns GetTime to a variable and then does a spin loop on that variable, but at least this one signature never shows up any more than i have mentioned, in the decompiled scripts i have

[00:10] <snover> Endy: in a sense, it is not their fault, someone working on the interpreter deleted a perfectly reasonable kernel call for sleeping

[00:26] <GitHub94> scummvm/master 12032bb stevenhoefel: DIRECTOR: Round rectangles for Buttons. Improved TextCast alignment.
[00:26] GitHub94 (GitHub94@192.30.252.45) left #scummvm.
[00:27] <m_kiewitz> snover: so gk2, kq7 and mother goose?
[00:28] <snover> m_kiewitz: qfg4, gk2, kq7, though i think only the qfg4 and gk2 instances would be noticeable
[00:29] <snover> and even then only if you were looking closely
[00:29] <snover> i played through all of gk2 and dont remember noticing any times when the ui went nonresponsive
[00:30] <snover> unrelated, i hope someone will at least give me a hug after i fix things that make pqswat not work.
[00:30] <snover> i will need one.
[00:35] <m_kiewitz> I'm interested in PQ:SWAT, heard it was horrible, but you never know. SWAT 4 was really awesome (but also 3D and first person)
[00:35] Action: m_kiewitz hugs snover
[00:35] <m_kiewitz> there you go :P
[00:36] <snover> police quest swat: hurry up and wait
[00:38] <snover> cant load from the launcher because part of the sierra logo stays in the draw list
[00:41] <m_kiewitz> urgh
[00:51] <snover> map 405 on disc 1 is corrupt, ignoring it and loading resources from disc 2 works. hopefully it works all the way.
[00:51] <snover> disc 3 has a different map 405, of course
[00:51] <snover> so who knows
[00:53] <snover> ive died 5 times now with a walkthrough so this isnt going very well
[00:54] <snover> im supposed to be able to do something but i cant do that thing
[01:01] <snover> ugh this awful game. when someone says move up apparently you are literally supposed to put your mouse at the top of the screen and click
[01:01] Action: Endy feels upmost sympathy for any SWAT playtesters
[01:03] <snover> nope, i died again anyway
[01:03] <snover> i hope whoever designed this game was blacklisted
[01:05] <Endy> Looking at Moby, it was the only game she wrote/designed :P
[01:05] <Endy> Production credits on QG3
[01:09] <snover> i finally found the 1 pixel to click on
[01:10] <snover> one great thing about the design of this game is that it switches randomly between third person and first person views
[01:10] <snover> i basically have no idea where i am
[01:22] <snover> ugh. come *on*. it just sent me back to the same scenario i just ran.
[01:28] <-- SylvainTV left irc: Read error: Connection reset by peer
[01:29] <Endy> Maybe I should have just learnt latex to do these slides
[01:29] <Endy> In hindsight it may have been easier than trying to figure out Libreoffice Impress :P
[01:41] <-- m_kiewitz left irc: Quit: technology isn't intrinsically good or evil. It's how it's used. Like the Death Ray.
[01:49] <snover> im sorry, i cant test this game. it is just too awful.
[01:50] <snover> almost everything is random so i cant blast through to check to see if it is completable
[01:52] <Endy> The one time you want a badly-seeded predictable RNG :)
[01:56] <snover> 308 scripts too

[03:55] <Endy> Hrm
[03:55] <Endy> What happened to lists.scummvm.org?
[03:56] <Endy> I swear that was resolving for me before Christmas..
[03:56] <snover> works fine from here
[03:57] <Endy> Must be a problem with my parents ISP, resolves with Google DNS. Odd
[03:57] <Endy> Thanks snover :)
[04:59] <Endy> FYI, it looks like lists.scummvm.org has a CNAME *and* an A record so I can't resolve it from some ISP's DNS servers
[04:59] <Endy> Someone with access to HostEurope should fix that at some point
[05:00] <Endy> (ping _sev)
[05:00] <snover> really? when i `dig lists.scummvm.org A` i get a cname response
[05:01] <Endy> well that's also not right is it? You asked for an A record not a cname :)
[05:01] <Endy> lists.scummvm.org.86400INCNAMEvm2.scummvm.org.
[05:01] <Endy> lists.scummvm.org.86400INA146.255.62.21
[05:02] <Endy> Versus doing a dig on www.scummvm.org where it's a cname to VM2 then you get the A record for VM2
[05:03] <Endy> Returning both CNAME and A records seems to break the cname traversal down to vm2 (with whatever this ISP is using for a recursive resolver)
[05:04] <snover> aha. some upstream dns server must be being very helpful. querying the authoritative ns directly does what you say.
[05:05] <snover> i should never have doubted you!
[05:05] <Endy> hehe thanks. "What broke? DNS. It's *always* DNS"

[05:50] <steven_h> Oh yey... Buttons autosize based on text contents, but rect is stored as most-recent largest size... not final resize.

[12:30] <rootfather> hi folks
[12:52] <rootfather> I noticed that the 1.9.1 branch is stalled
[12:52] <rootfather> do we skip that version or release it eventually?
[13:26] <Strangerke|work> Maybe such a version would be good for the Android port
[13:26] <Strangerke|work> for the other ports, I don't think there are massive regressions which would justify it

[23:56] <snover> its a pretty good debugger, except for the part where sometimes it causes my computer to stop playing audio until i terminate the attached process. but i think that is a macos problem :)
