"Texture Selector" crash in v0.97d

(1/2) > >>

Francesco:
Hi everybody, that's my first post here.

I take the occasion to greet all the community and to thank you, Steve, for Anim8or, that's a fantastic program and the ART raytracer is truly amazing - just playing around with reflective surfaces, but nothing really cool to share yet.


Version: 0.97d
Steps to reproduce the crash:
- in "Scene Mode" select "Settings > Environment...";
- in the "Environment Editor" dialog click on the "..." button besides to "Cubemap Texture";
- in the "Texture Selector" dialog select "none";
- the program crashes right after clicking "OK".


[ since the same kind of dialog is used by the "Surface Texture Editor" dialog, and since selecting "none" there will not cause a crash, I think that the problem is around the "Environment Editor" dialog - I wasn't sure about reporting this detail, as it seems superfluous to me, but well, here it is anyway ]

I also had some problems loading bitmaps - the only BMP file I was able to load was a 24bits made with Paint, while the program failed to load several other BMP formats made with Gimp. I wasn't able to find any post about this problem, I could give further details or upload some BMP images that failed to load, if needed.

Thank you all for your attention,
all the best,
Francesco

#097-024 - Selecting "None" for Scene Environment Map Background Crashes.

It's now fixed.  Thanks for the good bug report.

Anim8or doesn't load .bmp files that are compressed, run length encoded or use less than 8 bits/color channel.

Francesco:
Thanks to you for the time you're spending to give us such a cool program for free, being detailed in our reports is by far the minimum due.

Thank you also for the details about importing bitmaps, you could add that string to the error message, just to let users know.

Keep on the good work.

Steve:
Sure, I'll add an error about that.  Can you send me a .bmp file that doesn't work (for my QA tests :)?

VBSmiles:
a 4 bit will do right?
