OctaMED 1.03d Save Bug
« on: August 21, 2003, 12:17:54 AM »
Has anyone been able to save a module and successfully be able to reload it with the new version by Gerd?

Just ran into this 'bug' when trying to reload a module that I edited...gives the 'Unrecognised File Format' error (and trying to load it as an ST-module results in either gibberish or crashes)

Anyone???

I'm just curious if this a bug, something wrong with my setup, or intentionally programmed to disable the save feature?

Can anyone verify this?

Yep...I'm getting scrambled Hex reads too...I've tried saving as V5 and above, V3, etc. and that hasn't made a difference either, nor has fiddling with the compression settings.

Unfortunately, the MED website doesn't give any contact info to report this to Gerd.

I would like to think that if he intentionally 'diasbled' the save feature that he could have at least given warning in the readme that saving over old modules could and will destroy them.

Thanks for the reply, Cass...at least I can put my mind a bit more to ease that it's probably not anything crooked in my setup.

Have you tried the email address listed in the "about" requester? Or is that too obvious?


Doh! Always in the 'most obvious' of places to check.  I didn't think to check the "about" window...

Thanks for pointing it out...
