Hi,

I have made a couple of changes to the loading and saving code to fix a crash reloading the game on 64 bit linux systems.

I just realised that 4.06.3 isn't the latest, and I don't have access to your svn repo so I will just leave the code here...  http://www.spectral3d.co.uk/misc/saveload.cpp

Changes are pretty simple.  There seem to be a lot of cases where int and long are used interchangeably, and inconsistently.  This breaks in 64 bit of course.

I also caught a few cases where ints are being serialised as chars etc.  This is going to break save compatibility so probably wants to be looked at.

I also stuck some repetitive string loading and saving into a pair of functions.

My 1am noes suggest that I modified:

seed, cursquadid, selectedsiege

and the following components of location

parent, hidden, highsecurity, compound_stores

There are probably a bunch of things I missed, but at least I can run it twice without crashing now

Is LCS dead, guys?

[SlatersQuest]

Dead? How can you say that? A new version came out this past month!

[Uristsonsonson]

Where can you find the newest version?

[SlatersQuest]

Not sure where you can get the binary, but the latest source is here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/lcsgame/

[Megaman_zx]

you say this is the most recent, but the version number is 4.06, and we are in the 4.07.04 thread... is this just bad naming, or was an older version reuploaded recently?

[SlatersQuest]

Probably the names haven't been updated. Honestly I'm only peripherally involved in the most currently updated code. Liberal Elitist could probably answer this when he returns from vacation.

I don't know if it's official or not, but I think this is the newest release so far. It has background music.

It's unofficial, I just used the fact that someone went through the trouble of putting compiled .exes of the game in one of the folders in the source code, so it was just a matter of downloading all the resources manually and reuploading just the stuff necessary to play in a single package.

I'm unable to recruit in any city but Seattle.... it lets me try to recruit, and the prospect agrees to a meeting--but then the meeting never happens. Known bug?

Same's happening with me.

Also, why doesn't the President actually show up in the Oval Office, even when the game says that he did?

[A Spoony Bard]

Given that you can encounter the president the talk to them (or kidnap them if you go for more drastic measures) is it possible to recruit him/her? Moreover, can you make the president one of your sleeper agents?
