FlowStone 3.0.8 SKYLARK(any bugs or issues)

[Spogg]

3.0.8: I've noticed that when I set the number of voices for MIDI I now get 1 more than before. This means I have to set 0 voices for mono, 1 voice to get 2 and so on. Easy to work around but seems very odd to me...

EDIT: I can't now reproduce this issue! Very odd...

I don't know if anyone else experienced the same problem as me with v3.0.6, v3.0.7 as well as v3.0.8 of Flowstone:

Up to Flowstone v3.0.5 I had no problem opening most projects built with prior versions of Flowstone, but with all the above mentioned versions of Flowstone (v3.0.6 through v3.0.8), I experience the problem that many of the projects previously built with Flowstone v3.0.5 (and older versions) do not open at all. And in every case, it is also the same projects that do not open in v3.0.6 through v3.0.8.

I am using MS Windows 7 Ultimate on my desktop (Gigabyte Main Board H61M-USB3-B3 with Intel Chipset & Intel i3 CPU) and on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv7, i7 CPU) I am using MS windows 7 Home Premium - both machines give the same results as explained above.

Following things to check:

1) Fresh FS install instead of update (sometimes may help).
2) (maybe more important) - always save projects with soundcard turned off. Otherwise you save all buffer data as well, and sometimes some data, that are no longer in use in internal protocols.
3) Secure your projects. What is initialized on start? (memory operations? ruby stuff?) Order of it, and if it must start with project opening or a bit later?
4) Save data (bitmaps, wave related big arrays, memory stuff) - rather in external files, that are loaded instead of pushing them inside projects (well - this one may be questionable in some cases).

Reload your files in working version of FS and re-save after disabling unneeded stuff. Maybe this will help.

The latest FL version (3.0.8) does not export (Fruity format) plugins correctly. They cause fatal errors whenever you try to load them in FL (3.0.7 version works fine).

@tiffy: i have to open (some) older projects up to 5 times (crashes) until FS 3.0.8.1 load them...

i mentioned malc this behaviour right after the update!

This simple piece of Ruby code won't work:

Code: Select all

# input name is 'x'
def event i,v
   output 0, @x
end

Output is always zero, and there might be an error message or not. It seems to work with input names other than 'x'.

looks like @x is used by FS as a variable to store the main Ruby Thread... that's a bit stupid though.

When we post here do we get any support for the purchased product? I mean i dont see malc here any time.

Its like nothing works in this product :s

Isent it better if they make a new product work with same files? That actually works and support 64 bit and mac.

It feels pointless to even update when it becoming more and more buggs in newer versions. Instead ogf they r working :s thats me talking.

Hey bro!
Every single thing I have tried to do in FS at least partially works,
if I am patient.

Persistence is a trial, but works out for me in FS

Nice to hear from you mate! O

I can write to Malc if you have nailed a recurring bug if you'd like
