I had a lot of problems with the _bug_ collector at first.
It was not sounding alarm or telling me when a _bug_ arrived.
After resetting it and finding offset -many many times- it is now working very well.
It had always told me which bugs I had - and in all 3 game slots,
but it had never told me which were appearing. I just opened it up again and got an error message (and it was sounding the alarm continusouly even as the game was opening) I shut it down and then reopened it and voila! it worked.

The only thing I did differently was to try typing the names into the plants planted box!
Would that have made the difference?

I'm struggling on my Win ME. I got the pots found this time Borg. yeah! So that past was a success, but afterward when I turned in ON, it 'couldn't find the process'. Now I've seen that on my XP at work when I forget to shut the CG off first; but PT was running, so I don't know what it's deal was. 'Course having both open at once caused some slowdown on the PC so maybe it's just that my PC's biting the dust.
If anyone else out there is using Windows ME, I'd love to hear if it's working for you!
So then I turned on the BC and ran the offsets, again slowed everything down. But it did find a number, and I ran it and it seemed to be working fine, until the alarm came flashing on and wouldn't stop. Until I went to the nursery, and it sent up an error message about the index being too high, and the BC quit. So I though that meant my offset was wrong and tried to do it again, but now it's not really registering anything.
I'm wondering if running the offset more than once messes it up?
Don't get down about it Borg. It's a great concept and we'll figure it all out eventually. Like I told DW yesterday, that's what beta's all about, right?

I've been using the _bug_ collector for 3 days now and I love it.

I think a lot of the "false positive" beeps are due to the flying bugs that don't come "down" far enough on the screen. Sometimes the dragonflies/butterflies also show up on the part of the screen where the tools are so that just grabbing the net scares them away.

Thanks for making such great mods! The constant gardener has made what was a chore to be no more \:8

Can't find my pots. I bought my game from IWIN. Here is the message I get.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

dear sandi,

thank you for the bug report!

wow, that's an impressive list of problems that i've not seen before, and i've seen a lot \:\)

since it seems to be mentioning security, if i had to guess, i might guess that you perhaps you are not running MS Windows with admin priv ? i think you may need admin priv for windows to allow the program to read/write to/from another program's active memory (in this case, plant tycoon).

just a guess \:\)

the other thought that came to mind when i saw:
CodeBase: file:///C:/Documents and Settings/sandi/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5/WTEFCPA3/The Constant GardenerBeta.exe

is that you are running the program from within a zip folder in a temporary file directory.

perhaps extract the program to the desktop and try running it from there?

good luck and thanks again for the bug report!
-Borg
