Alrighty. Thanks for the fast replies will try out on doing the same movement when i get back tomorrow.

Wish you the best in your exams and will be posting again if this occures again so we can get a bloody fix to this.

-Cheers

I will just add on the fact that in my replay, it all worked because a little glitch that happend. The glitch could not be re-created with the replay parser, therefore, if I tried to re-create it with the moves that were written down in the replay parser, the replay got only to like 2 hits (coincidently, both of our replays were manips, but thats unimportant). As obliv said, both of our "glitches" are pretty similiar, where uke suddenly stops reacting to the hits. What seems to happen is that in one certain frame, tori teleports to a position in which you were while creating the replay, but got there without "teleporting". My mind hurts trying to understand how toribash would do this, since the replay is showing the same exact thing you were doing, but somehow fails to recognize how did you and uke got in the certain position, so it teleports you, but only teleports uke later on. I thought about the reSpar lua script, but I guess that would go the same way, just repeat the moves, not the glitch that made the replay work.

Bah, it's a shame if the glitch happens during the replay and not after it is saved.

It probably would be possible to still make it work if after you were done with it and before closing the client window you ran the replay through this script: http://forum.toribash.com/showthread.php?t=439010 , but I'm still not sure. Plus that would require you to play really safe and use the script every time you finished a replay, just in case it was glitched.

My best advice is probably to make multiple save files and periodically check them while you're making the replay.
That and trying to talk to hampa about it. It's a shame that we still don't have a convenient way to report bugs, but you can always try and post it on the Beta Releases forum (maybe??) or talking directly on irc to him about it.

We can also try and figure out a way to recreate the glitch, but I'm not so sure how to do that. Got to discuss it with NutHug to see if he has any crazy ideas.

Hey Oblivion,
I am having trouble manually merging two replays, I merged about 20 frames to test it out but when i load the replay, it doesn't even load, it straight away crashed, I should mention that these replays have moving items in it, and I saw some stuff in notepad which I didn't recognise example EPOS 0, EQAT 0, EANGVEL 0, ELINVEL 0. Even though the replay was Uke's replay, these ones still appeared when i didnt touch Tori. I didn't merge these ones cause I'm not sure about it.

Everything that starts with an "E" (like EPOS, EQAT, etc) refers to objects.

It's easier if I see the replays you want to merge and the merging file.
Specially since it's about 20 frames it should be easy to pinpoint the mistake and tell you what went wrong.

Definitely. This seems to happen to me in things outside of Toribash as well.

My replay thread actually has my whole experience as a replay-maker from start to end documented because I wanted to be able to see exactly how I improved.

I don't know which was the exact point where I suddenly got better but I feel like that did happen.
I do however credit my involvement with ORMO on IRC as the main boost to my performance in this game.

Sorry for the late response. Only now did I fully started my summer vacations.

Hi, wot is yor job? :>

Full-time student for now.
Just finished my 2nd year in Medicine.

It was a pretty pondered decision, honestly.

Most of all, I wanted to pick something that would make me want to get up in the morning everyday for the rest of my life.
As childish as that sounds, I suppose that sums up what most people want.

It had to be something where I could make a impact.
Plus, it had to be something where I could help people, because that's kind of the only impact that actually matters.
The "love helping humans" closes to being a cliché but fortunately still remains true to some degree for all the medical students I have met.

There are a lot of paths I could have followed based on those premises though.
A few engineering degrees or medicine were the most flagrant ones since I've always loved natural sciences.


Eventually it came down to:
-pursuing a degree HEAVILY based around Chemistry, because a chain of events lead me to delve a bit deeper into that area and being particularly interested in it.
I eventually dropped that idea because Portugal doesn't have a good set of options in that area.

-pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering, because of how incredibly fascinating and cool it all seems.
Hardcore physics and maths are far from being the high points of my skill-set though.

-pursuing a degree in Biomedical Engineering. It has physics and maths to a point I believe I can handle. It has a strong influence of Chemistry and Biology. Honestly it sounded remarkably interesting but then the "what if I don't want to be closed in a lab/office for the rest of my life?" kicked in.

-pursuing a degree in Medicine. It's a perfect match for my areas of interest in science. It's the most straight-forward path to help people and make an impact. BUT the thing that did it for me was how versatile it is.



You can be a general practitioner (or so I think that's the english term) and have a quiet life working in different community health centers and clinics, with not that many working hours and being able to spend more time with the future family.

You can be a surgeon and have a total different experience, while working at the hospital and enduring painful working hours.

You can be something like an Ophthalmologist and live a mix of both things. Well I can't, because I'll never have the necessary grade on the final exam, but it kind of sort of is an option???

You can be a researcher and explore the pleasure of studying your favorite subject above and beyond.
Maybe even discovering something cool along the way with the potential to help millions of people at a time instead of the case-by-case routine regular doctors do. (Again a pretty childish idea but one worth chasing, in my opinion)

AND you can even try bouncing between being a researcher and some kind of "regular" doctor, which doesn't seem to work all that well based on the people I've met that do it, but it's actually the path I wanted (and still want) the most to venture through.



As a side note, at some point I did consider some sort of Economics degree though, because what if my future self finally figures out that money is all he wants and all that matters because if everything is so ephemerous why not acquire currency and go full on hedonistic ideals???
Medicine can lead to a nice paycheck so I'm somewhat covered if I ever turn into that guy (but he's going to be pretty pissed with the working hours so fuck that guy anyway)



TL;DR Overall, Medicine:
-covers a lot of different lifestyles that I highly consider that I might be interested in, and all of them related to helping people/making an impact
-is based around the subjects I want to study the most
-is based around subjects that match my skill-set
-did I mention how versatile it is??? because how the hell can I trust a dumb and naive 18 year old (now 20 but still as dumb and naive) to decide what I'm going to do for the rest of my life and with one choice put me on the tracks to a life that I might not like later


Funny how I actually considered my decision to be pretty well pondered when I started writing this.
I guess it's blatantly obvious that the portuguese system doesn't involve interviews while trying to access the course/university you want, or else I would be able to give you an answer so thought out and rehearsed I'd copy+paste it here the moment I read the question.

How are you in your second year of Medicine at only 20? :O
Did you jump through highscool? Or is there something different about the Portuguese system?
