RR 04-01-09 ... Never to late.. (GET HOT FIX)

**Blue ZX3** · 04-15-2009, 01:54 AM

This release's content:

Added
-All ONxxx Events now passed to extension plug-in’s, read only fashion.
-New internal error message screen that requires no extra skinning ( Say bye-bye to the MJSG_MessageBox.skin

)
-KeepLoaded screen ini setting ( keeploaded=xx.skin, with preference to use the below skin file option )
-/KEEPLOADED skin parameter
-Disable option for the built-in Phidgets support (Extension Plug-in To Be Released latter)
- >, >=, <, <= Funcs to the Eval command
-Real HORM support ( "hormdrive" RR.ini setting )
-Preload dynamic command, Preload;xx.skin
-Unload dynamic command, Unload;xx.skin
-ReloadExectbl command, reloads both ExecTBL.ini files ( RR's & Skin's w/o reloading screens )
-Extension plug-in Initialize method, passes in plug-in's computed data storage path
-Internal File Manager (Legacy / Profile Modes), to properly run under vista
-Screen Count label, shows total screens in memory

Improved
-Preload screen setting(Preload=xx.skin) can be per skin via the skin.ini
-Internal ExecTbl Lookup, more Streamlined/efficient
-Audio playback resuming when Windows being shut down & RR still running
-Internal debugging log events, started sooner and more info

Fixed
-EQ Preset option didn't exclude all but EQ
-Winampclass setting, was being overwritten with default
-Random Hold Commands being fired, when button/exec label was not held down
-/DISCARDABLE screen parameter fixed (lets hope for the last time)
-Globally loaded plugins have access to skin vars again
-RR application close (on vista systems)

Removed
-hibernatereload setting (a often mis-understood setting)

Updated
-SkinEditor v.76, includes new cmds and /keep option
-Config

Having 17 of the above mentions as part of my contributions, we (Guino, Mitchjs & Myself, aka RR Coding Team) decided to have me do the
official release this month to help show how much behind the scene's work & effort I put in to this awesome project, that some may not be
fully aware of. This also does not include the upkeep on the skin editor, config and the skin tool apps.

Guino's been really busy lately but has been working on adding some requested features that will be added for release when time deemed right.
Mitchjs has also been busier than normal with day to day events.

Notes:
-Thanks...in the end goes to Guino,for without him, this project would cease to exist.
-It is RECOMMENDED to always use the Installer to update the software, it has the newest config and skin tools included.

As always you can download it for FREE HERE

HOT FIX:
*** rr 4/01/2009 hot fix ***

Thanks for your support,

Found a bug, I did a fresh install of the new version listed here.. It seems when you click and hold on the main menu (to get the the dynamic menu selection) it says that its missing atrist.bmp and music.bmp in the file app_chooser.skin I fixed it by removing the 2 files from the top of the app_chooser.skin

**mitchjs** · 04-15-2009, 05:26 AM

trahan, its a issue with the skin... and not really a bug, infact the new feature showed you the error
the carwings skin does need some TLC

Thanks for all the work guys! Will try it out after work (or maybe even during work...

)

Well done.

**pcpete** · 04-15-2009, 07:33 AM

you guys rock!!

**Konrad** · 04-15-2009, 07:40 AM

Code:

hormdrive=x		- were x = drive letter, example: hormdrive=E
			  tells RR that HORM mode is active, and where to save HORM data
			  MUST BE A USB DRIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
			  its a small amount of data, a USB STICK DRIVE WILL DO

Why can't I use an unprotected partition ?

**mitchjs** · 04-15-2009, 07:45 AM

very technical reasons.... (a partition MUST BE LOCKABLE for exclusive access to dismount it... never could be done with a fixed drive)

use a small usb stick drive

actually a good instruction document needs to be made up for HORM
if u want to use HORM, u really need to understand it, and what EXACTLY RR will do for you
SAL R. can help
