[Plugin] Chess (3 Viewers)

I am having issues with chess on RC3. It crashes MP. Any ideas?

Hi Kyght Ryder,

I just tried the chess game in RC3. Of course the skin for the b3 is missing. In b2 everything still works on my system. Please post the log files here.

Hi kroko, just tried your games with MP1.1beta and got an exception for all your games. Any chance to recompile all your great games for the MP1.1?
They were running great with MP1.0.2.

That would be great!

Re: How about chess ?

Since you're all begging for the games here is a pack i have compiled for myself. It contains all the games for the MP i could find:

Chess v0.3.1
Click Mania v1.0 RC2
Connect 4 v0.4.0.1
Frustration 0.2
Hexxagon 0.4
Mastermind v2.10 SE
Minesweeper v0.3
Simon Say v0.6.1.1
Yahtzee v0.2

If there is any more, tell me

All the credits go to the authors of the games!!! I just took the sources, and fixed for compile on 1.1. Also, if needed, uploaded the sources back to SVN.

Have fun!

Re: How about chess ?

the pack already contains clickmania v1.3 but the version numbers were a bit wrong. i did a thorough check and updated everything with proper assembly versions.. will put a thread with a new pack soon..

Re: How about chess ?

Silly me, I didn't realise I had to have the original games installed as there are no skin files in your pack...
Thanks for your efforts, we all appreciate it.

Kroko,
when I did recompile Chess for 1.2beta
I had to do the the following changes:
// replaced always (about 3 substitutions) MediaPortal.Configuration.Config.Dir.Base by MediaPortal.Configuration.Config.Dir.Config to avoid Windows Vista/ Windows 7 UAC access rights to program folder for saving and loading games. The ProgramData folder did work fine.
// added assembly plugin compatibilty in assembly.cs
[assembly: CompatibleVersion("1.1.6.27652")]
[assembly: UsesSubsystem("MP.SkinEngine")]
[assembly: UsesSubsystem("MP.Config")]

// changed version number from 0.4.0.0 to 0.4.0.1

// changed project properties .net framework to 3.5
// unchecked project properties build code optimization
// unchecked project properties build trace
one of the latter three caused for me an "image could not be loaded" exception of the plugin

hope this saves you some time for releasing the next version. Thanks again for the great plugin
