I have a bug where two of my transformers are still stasis locked. I can activate them but I can't put them in missions.

When some of the changes were made, auto-CR stopped working for a few minutes, then worked again. I had to manually put one in CR.

While continuing to clean up code, I just made a major change to the code that gets the information about a transformation image for each character. I reduced a database query from 68 lines to 15 lines. If you encounter any errors, please report them immediately along with the URL where the error was encountered. Thank you.

I'm assuming something is going on behind the scenes since the side menu disappeared for a while:

That's what I meant, the showing 30x30s look fuzzed to me, or should say they appear odd.

Has anyone else noticed the alt-mode icons not looking right? Yesterday, the outlines started looking lower res and more squiggly or something. Thought it was me leaving my computer on too long at first, but if others aren't seeing them at all, then it might be a glitch.

To be clear, I mean the smaller versions on my registry. The larger ones in missions still look OK.

Yep. It seems to to only be happening to the custom coloured alts though, any of the ones left with their default colours aren't affected.

Can someone share a couple of character links? I'll try to find some time to look at them and play with a new toy to see what happens.

The top one has a dodgy-looking alt, the toaster doesn't. Have fun.


Edit: also slightly relevant, The last word in Nem Wheelie's bio not only goes under the adverts, but out the other side of the screen as well. Check out the attached pic, its awesome. :lol:

It's displaying correctly.

Need better versions of the smaller pics.

How are they displaying correctly? It looks like the custom color's borders were skinned off.

And I don't even know what a lot of these are from original image-wise if there's a need for 30x30 fixes..

edit: They're still labeled .gif via the url, weren't they supposed to be .png? Unless I'm missing something... hm.

I knew that was worded wrongly.

Essentially, what they're displaying is what's in the system. I need to upload better quality pictures to fix it.
