GreenAsJade Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Hey all, A version of CM Helper that supports CMFB is available at: http://bit.ly/cm-helper Because I don't actually have CMFB myself (simply haven't got around to obtaining it), this release has had limited testing by me, but a few folk who've tried it tell me that it works OK. If you are not keen on encountering problems, you might want to hold off a little to see if there are quirks to be gotten out. If you are willing to take a plunge, go for it. Let me know of any issues through "the usual channels" (Help->Report Bug is good). GaJ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G. Smiley Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Thank you, extremely appreciated - seems to work fine on my Mac, but will get back if any issues turn up. Thanks again, this makes H2H so much more enjoyable to me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcard766 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 been using it for several turns now with no issues thx GreenAsJade. Have one question I have noticed that over the different versions that you have been realising that their is a opponent tab.

rocketman Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Thanks a lot. Is it safe to update while having games in progress? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenAsJade Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 I think it's safe to update while games are in progress: I'm pretty sure that's what the test users have done. The "opponents" tab alludes to a number of ideas that were in the works, though are kind of on the backburner at the moment: keeping track of your games and results after you finished, finding opponents etc. Since most H2H players are in clubs, I'm not entirely convinced those ideas need implementing ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Works fine, thank you! Not important at all, but while I have your attention, how does CMH tell which version the game is? CMSF, CMFI, CMBS, CMFB are displayed correctly CMBN, CMA not 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSF, CMFI, CMBS, CMFB are displayed correctly CMBN, CMA not This relies on someone telling me which BRZs are in the Data folder for each version (and for each OS, if they are different) It doesn't need a new release of CMH to update that information (CMH fetches if from a web site where I store that info). It does need someone to tell me though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richtig FGM Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I am still having the same issue. I can point at the install, but once targeted, if I click choose, it clears and still shows as not installed (so grey out). I am a mac user, and I have the installs on a removable hard drive. Could that be the issue? All other games work fine... Any help appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richtig FGM Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Just a quick message for GreenAsJade, the email you sent me mentioned a 1.7.7 Alpha, but i can't see that via the link, so haven't been able to test it yet... Just for info... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadgerDog Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Anyone else getting duplicate games showing after updating? I opened a ticket #357 Running v1.7.6 beta on a Mac... Had same problem with v1.7.5 also on same Mac.. Any way to clean up these duplicate entries without losing one of them which is a live game? Thanks...

PhilM Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I'm running v1.7.6 beta on a Mac but NOT having this problem, so from that I'd guess it is something specific to you (sadly!), rather than generic to the Mac beta version ... Any more info on how / when the duplicates are happening? Did you delete the old version you were running before adding the new version to Applications and running it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadgerDog Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 No, I deleted the old version after installing the new one and I think that's the problem. I wanted to make sure the new version workedf first.\\ Most likely one of those Apple config type files that has duplicate info now. Any idea which one it is and how I can edit or clean it up? Thanks... Regards, Doug 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilM Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) I'm only guessing that that may be the problem ... What I usually do is drag the old app to the trash, place the new version in Applications, then run it. There is a CMH configuration file (appstate.txt ???) that remembers the title installations (including duplicates, IIRC) and the battles / games in progress, and so the updated version doesn't start from scratch but finds / knows of the state of the previous version. Or at least, this is how it has worked for me, deleting the old one first before running the new version. Given where you are, I'd first off try deleting both versions of the app (if you still have them both), then perhaps worth re-starting the machine (tho not sure that's strictly necessary), and then re-installing the new version again as the only one. See if that cures it? If not, find and delete the appstate.txt file and then run the new version again. Doing this bit may well mean (cannot remember since the last time I needed to do this) that you have to re-find the battles and their linked drop boxes, but that shouldn't be too much hassle hopefully ... If you run the "Show CMH log window" option, the first line of the log is the path to where that log file is stored; the appstate.txt file is in the same place. (The log file will also highlight errors it finds, which may offer different hints to the problem, if the above doesn't fix it.) Hope this helps!

BadgerDog Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Thanks Phil .... I also received a response to by trouble ticket, suggesting I do exactly the same thing, delete appstate.txt and restart CMH.. I did that and it's fixed!!! Appreciate the help from both of you .. Regards, Doug 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
