Have a build that I think fixes at least some of the problems with b8. If a few brave soles could take it for a spin and let me know:

You may want to install it in a different folder than your normal client, just in case.

I've downloaded the 1.0b8a to my laptop and it has been running idle mostly for over 3 hours with no crash, so it seems to have fixed the crashing stuff...however the clipped systemmessage balloons still there.

At my desktop I still have the 1.0b8, and George and I performed an interesting test, grasping at straws.

A time test for crashes, here is results taken over 3 occurences

Cheiron:
15.47
16.40
17.34

George:
8.43
9.47
~10.50

the time approx may be due to me introducing a loose prop pic for George which made him choke on his coffee and might be a measure bias:




Cheers

i have been running 1.0b8a two days now it seems realy stable for me all i have noticed is page bubbles being cut inhalf and chat bubbles being cut inhalf usely if two are in the same spot there still some graphix bugs in the script painted rooms im not sure if you wanted me to list them all or not but for the most part its like 1.0b7 on the outside

Yes the cut in half balloons has been a problem for a long time.... probably only if you make a spot thing or roommsg with multiple instances.
I posted about this way back when a roomscript I made suddently behaved like that... however I have never seen it in the sign on messages before 1.0b8... so that problem seems to go from bad to worse.

This problem seems ... as I recall.... to coincide with an upgrade to graphics layers ... not sure.... but I think the blotches around loose props also popped up then.

I refer to my posting called: "room message oddity" in november.
