Crowley's Random Dresser App - Version 2.0 Beta

Post by Crowley »

For those that are interested, I've hopefully gotten this version back on track (and many thanks to the small bunch of beta testers who've I've been working with directly).

The latest version (v2 beta 6 at time of writing) is available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/randomd ... on2.0Beta/

It's still very much a beta and probably going to be harder to understand for anyone who hasn't used older versions. That said it does address some minor issues with the original beta like crashing on startup if you were in the US :oops:

There is a help file but it's still for the V1 app so doesn't cover any of the new features. Depending on the feedback on this version (i.e. if there aren't any horrible, doesn't work for 80% of the users type bugs) I'll get cracking on some tutorials, wizards and updating the documentation to make it a bit more friendly for new users.

One issue several people have had issues with is the import from the currently released version. I've made some tweaks but haven't really discovered why they were having this trouble. I'd REALLY appreciate any feedback from users who're upgrading, even if it's just to say it worked (actually, especially if it's just to say it worked :) ). The original version and the beta of 2.0 live quite happily alongside each other so you won't ruin your existing configuration by testing the beta.

I would note that the upgrade process only supports upgrading from the final release version of V1 (check Help -> About on your current version, if it's 1.0.0.0 then you're fine. Some earlier versions may work, if you have no Help -> About then you're running a really old beta of 1.0)

PM, posts here or e-mail to randomdresser@<removethisbit>.gmail.com with feedback, suggestions, etc. are greatly appreciated.

Seems to work just fine on a Win7 64bit machine. A short description of the new features (if any?) would help finding possible bugs though.

Thank you for your work.

Thanks for the feedback, good to hear.

Blacky, I could do with such a list myself :) , I haven't been great at keeping notes but it's definately needed so I'll get cracking.

There are some screenshots with brief notes at http://randomdresser.sourceforge.net/v2ScreenShots.htm but even these are out of date.

I'll update here when I get the list of new features pulled together.

Is it possible to provide also an example (to import)?

Friendly greetings,

I'll try to put a sample together in the next day or two.

I would just upload a copy of my own setup but I don't use a lot of the new features so I'll try to make up one that does show how these can be used.

I've tried to run it under Wine on SuSE12.
It failed as I couldn't get the latest version on .NET to install.
Random Dresser appears to be .NET dependant to run.

I wish luck with that one. Perhaps you will have better luck with Ubuntu?

When I get a chance I'll try to get a machine up and running with Ubuntu and Wine to see if I can work out what's causing the problem.

I use a couple of Pinvoke calls to Windows OS DLLs but IIRC they're only for minor look and feel tweaks, if they're the issue then I should be able to remove them.

However, it probably won't be anytime soon, slammed with real work for the last six months and no sign of abating :-(
