spaceship-track ready

[rubberduck]

my spaceship-track is 99.9% ready, only the licence-file is not updated yet

then i will upload it tomorrow

if possible, i will add the sound, if i do this, it can be, that i upload the track a bit later

[Totoplus62]

That's very cool i really want to play it !
Maybe this was not necessary to open a whole new subject for that, no?

I guess it was ^^

All jokes aside , your track is a really great work ! I´d love to see it in the new official roaster.

[betharatux1]

feel i can't calm, for testing that track
very talented working, rubberduck ... arghhh so cool

[rubberduck]

i have uploaded the new version of the track, now i upload the src-files and replace the images on stkaddons

[rubberduck]

when i tried to upload the src-files, i got this error:

File Exception: exception 'FileException' with message 'Failed to extract archive file. (gz)' in /data/web/5b/eb/7c/stkaddons.net/htdocs/include/File.class.php:123 Stack trace: #0 /data/web/5b/eb/7c/stkaddons.net/htdocs/include/Upload.class.php(73): File::extractArchive('/data/web/5b/eb...', '/data/web/5b/eb...', 'tar.gz') #1 /data/web/5b/eb/7c/stkaddons.net/htdocs/include/Upload.class.php(49): Upload->doUpload() #2 /data/web/5b/eb/7c/stkaddons.net/htdocs/upload.php(158): Upload->__construct(Array, 'source') #3 {main}

what does that mean

i tried it again and now i got:

Failed to create temporary directory for upload: /data/web/5b/eb/7c/stkaddons.net/tmp/uploads/1367516727-spaceship-src.tar.gz/

like the first time i tried to upload my track some days before

Indeed something seems to have gone wrong: when I try to update the track, I get the following output:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

[Irrlicht Error] Could not create archive for: /home/willem/.local/share/supertuxkart/addons/tmp/5182a21aec1f3.zip
[addons] Failed to unzip '/home/willem/.local/share/supertuxkart/addons/tmp/5182a21aec1f3.zip' to '/home/willem/.local/share/supertuxkart/addons/tracks/in-the-spaceship'
[addons] Zip file will not be removed.

And the GUI looks strange afterwards:

Note the text on the buttons below. It says (cropped, in Dutch)
"...euw prob..." -> "Try again"
and "...van addon" -> "??? of addon"

Edit: the created zip file is actually an empty file

[rubberduck]

i see it

[fraang]

Really nice track. Kudos.

Let's wait for Stephen to have a look at the server side.

And the GUI looks strange afterwards:

That bug was actually recently fixed by a GSoC student

I have no idea why the first error would occur, other than a corrupted archive file. Maybe there was some kind of transmission error when uploading.

As for the second error, I have now hopefully prevented it from happening again. When an upload failed, it's temp files weren't being deleted. Now old temp files should be knocked out properly when somebody tries to upload things.

Also, when I downloaded your track, it worked for me. Maybe the download servers weren't completely synced yet when you tried to download the new version.

[rubberduck]

yesterday i tried it to download my track and i have an empty folder, but today it works

[Totoplus62]

Your improvement are great but the "space windows" do not work (as sound emitters)
->

[rubberduck]

i don't have sound emitters in the track at the moment, because i had problems with the sound emitters
i don' t know, why the windows should be sound emitters,
the core and the electrical thing should have sound emitters

[Totoplus62]

No i just said there is no visible space, the windows all look just blue :S

[rubberduck]

i found a sky-texture and some other from stk, that i will add

Nebula of samuncle might maybe be better -> at the end viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2914

[rubberduck]

this is good, i will change this

if it looks good, i make some images of the new window

[RaceAce]

When do you expect to upload the improved version? I love this track and am waiting impatiently for it!

[rubberduck]

one improved version is uploaded now, but i will improve now some more things, this isn't much

i will improve the windows and i will add some sounds, if that works

[rubberduck]

i have now better windows

Wow, very nice, I don't update from SVN a few days and I am behind already

Indeed, the updated track works now. I really like it! And thank you for adding the blue lights in the "circle" after the first bend, I always crashed into the walls there in the first version

[rubberduck]

i re-improved the track now

and it is ca 4MB smaller than the improved version before

[RaceAce]

It looks a lot better. One thing, I liked the old floor better (this one download/file.php?id=6062&mode=view), as I think it gave more of a "spaceship/techno" look. Could you return that one?

[rubberduck]

i didn't change this floor
