IMPORTANT: Paradigm Bug Fixed | |
Posted by JT_ on Nov 08, 2011 1:24 pm | |
I had a report the other day that something was "off" about Paradigms. I was able to look into this bug today, and it is now fixed. The bug involved Pumas where a Marking was a Paradigm/Paradigm mix and the Marking itself was less than 100% strength. These Markings were not showing on the Puma image as their appropriate strength, but were correctly stored in the database (and correctly displayed on the Puma Profile). I can best explain with an example. :) Here is the Puma that Quad showed to me when she reported the bug: CLICK HERE As you can see in the Markings info area, Classic Tabby is at 53%, Flame Point is at 15%, Labyrinth is at 23%. At those strengths: • Classic Tabby should be half visible (53/100) • Flame Point should be barely visible (15/100 is not much!) • Labyrinth should only be *slightly* more visible (23/100-- not much!) These numbers are very important! And here is why. :) When Quad reported this Puma to me, it looked like this: INCORRECT STRENGTHS - ALL PARADIGM/PARADIGM MIX MARKINGS ARE SHOWING AT 100% But this Puma *should* look like this based upon the correct strengths in the database: CORRECT STRENGTHS BASED UPON THE MARKING STRENGTH INFORMATION As you can see, the Puma was erroneously showing 100% strength for markings that were very low. :) This has now been repaired, so you should reset the images of any Pumas you think might be affected. It's possible the image may have a drastic change (like the Puma above) if the Marking strength was very low (I'd say under 50% will probably be extremely noticeable). This is why the Markings info area on the Puma Profile is so important. :) It will tell you exactly how the Puma should look, even if there is a bug in the way images are generated. If you are unhappy with how your Puma now looks, feel free to send him/her through the Portal to a new land of safety-- there are no code bugs on the other side! :) |
