I was going to use your client and I want to use custom GUI (viewtopic.php?f=49&t=40456) but your updater replacing it all the time Can you add feature to switch in settings for custom GUI?

*edit*

Issue fixed by downloading the newest updater and "reinstalling".

3 thumbs-up! (I'm clumsy so have an extra)

I can look into adding a checkbox into the updater to skip that file (but still give a notice about the last time the file was updated), that file is actually fetched from the official site so if they patch something in it and you aren't updating it, problems might occur.

Having an issue where my settings aren't being saved. Ender's also has the problem.

I've tried looking at permissions and removing read-only attribute on the folders, but there didn't seem to be any issues there. Oddly the Video settings (base client) stick, but not the various UI configuration changes in General and Display. I have to reset them every time I restart.

.err reports :Sep 07, 2015 11:13:34 PM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init>
WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5.

.out reports: Config version mismatch... reseting config

Audio/Video settings are saved in a different way. The other ones (custom client settings) are saved to "setting/config.json". And I setup my code so if I make major changes to the config file that it'll check the version and return that message that you saw "Config version mismatch... reseting config"

Could you try with the latest version of the client and see if the issue is still occurring? Basically run hafen-minion.jar and once in-game go into (for example) Camera Settings and toggle on Free Camera Rotation (that'll trigger a config save). And then see if the 'setting/config.json' file exists. Should be noted in that if you click the 'remember me' button when logging in a 'setting/accounts.json' file should also be being created.

Also post the output from the updater.log file (i fixed so it actually is generated again) it'll give me system info and what not.

I see that bdew's combiner has been added.. For some reason it doesn't output any sort of text and doesn't seem to work well though?

if you're on windows you gotta run it from the command line to see output, i've tested it very briefly on my machine and it creates the pngs in the map folder, plus i have that map.html file that'll show your current session, though it doesn't center on your initial location first so it takes a bit of work if you don't have a lot of map revealed to find it.

What did you mean by "doesn't seem to work well though" ?

With Ender's last update (that I already merged into mine) if you can get a hold of the .res files you can add them into the appropriate folder and it will use them instead of the default ones for example the builtin-res.jar file ui has 'res\ui\fraktur.res'
so putting that file in the same place would replace it when running the client. (if i understand his work correctly)

structure would be like this:

Code: Select all

lib
res
  sfx
    thud.res
  ui
    fraktur.res
hafen.jar
hafen-minion.jar


to replace the thud.res (sound effect), and the fraktur.res (ui) items

fraktur.res (ui) items

Not working.

Ever since your latest update, any numbers entered into chat are being picked up for the purpose of hotkeys. Pretty annoying bug, tested and doesn't occur on vanilla client.

Edit: As well, your client is now closing on me constantly, no error or anything the game just poofs. No issues with any other clients, performed some cursory troubleshooting and can't determine any reason.
