Because it's better than XP and Vista combined.

Though, doesn't it expire?, I was thinking of installing it on my brother's computer, as his is corrupted and goes to a blue screen saying that it has to dump the memory to prevent damage to the computer often...

Its my graphics drivers. When using windows update, it will support Aero, but wont load many 3d modeling applications. when using ATI Drivers, it will load 3d modeling programs, but does not support aero. I will find a fix to this!

I honestly don't know what the fuck is wrong with my maps. Between Mutation, Entity, and the sparkle barf of a map layout UberAnalyzeTool is showing me... I can't tell what is messed up and where :¬_¬:

So I figured out the problem. Heh, you have to love C# fuck ups.

Code: Select all

// Write new Pointer
#if (WritePointers)
mw.BaseStream.Position = r.Translation + (x * 176) + 40;
 mw.Write((int)bw.BaseStream.Length);
#endif

// Write Raw with Padding
rr.BaseStream.Position = Offset;
bw.Write(rr.ReadBytes(Size));
bw.Write(new byte[Padding(512)]);
Who knows whats wrong with the segment above?

Code: Select all

bw.Write(rr.ReadBytes(Size));
bw.Write(new byte[Padding(512)]);
These two lines is whats wrong. Even though rr does infact read a byte[], for some reason, bw doesnt write anything, nor does it write when its supposed to write padding. Yea, makes a shit load a sense.... Not.

?? Padding doesn't return a value, therefore you are creating a new byte array of zero length.
What are you trying to pad?? The number of Bytes read to 512?

Code: Select all

bw.Write(rr.ReadBytes(Size));
bw.Write(new byte[512- (Size % 512)]);

Code: Select all

public int Padding(int Size)
        {
            int pad = Size - ((int)bw.BaseStream.Position % Size);
            if (pad == Size)
                pad = 0;
            return pad;
        }
Not everything gets padded to 512 you know.... Also you don't pad to the data size, you pad to the position you are at in the map.

Approximately 3.07 hours a day?

And I'm not coming back every 1st of the month to listen to their music.
Guess I'll go check out Last.fm.

Or try playlist.com

Also for those with Windows 7 and have compatibility issues there is Virtual Windows XP that comes with W7. If you want it PM me with your version (32 or 64bit)
