Problem with v3.06 - Duplicate entries/timeouts/system freezing

[Fenris]

Airnav have already recognised that if you sort by Altitude that there is a problem. It certainly happens here every time so not sure why Allocator does not see this problem.

Not just Allocator.  I always sort MyFlights by altitude, and have never seen the problem either.

Maybe there's some interaction here with the columns displayed as well that's causing the problems?

It would be instructive if Allocator and Tarbat could post the date and size in bytes of their anrb.exe files in the installed directory. I remember Tarbat making a comment about releasing exactly the version that the closed beta testers had, I don't think that has happened has it?

But which button? ;)

I've tried filters, sorting, scrolling, network on/off, etc. and can't make it misbehave.  There's got to be a common theme running through these problems.

Tarbat, do you see the problem with 3.06 where if one highlights a flight on the map that it then unhighlights itself after a short period?

After how long?  I've left an aircraft highlighted for over 5 minutes this morning, and it's stayed highlighted.

I'm using the one fro http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/beta/anrb.exe

I got the exe file direct from the forum download link here

anrb.exe     2,292KB in Explorer but if I right click and select properties I get:

I've seen that happen as well

Maybe the "help" software version date/time would be a better indicator?

Here's a couple of examples, including one where the plane is flying backwards!

Airnav - not sure how you can work out a solution to a problem that you can't actually duplicate.

If there are any tests I can make on my set-up or any information I can give you that might help let me know.

Maybe I am missing some information, but I find it rather interesting to see a variety of different values in the "Help > About" info of the users posted here, all using ANRB Beta 3.06:

File size
Allocator 2,347,008 bytes
Tarbat    2,347,008 bytes
Mine       2,346,496 bytes

Software version dates (don't know if this should be a static value)
PJM   2009/10/02 22:26
Tarbat   2009/10/01 17:06
Mine   2009/09/28 02:22

Seems the users of the closed beta group received a different 3.06 software version than the one that has been released to public.

Re. the freezing: I still do get that at times; sometimes after 20 min. other times after an 1 hour. But always with the network on only. This never happens using any earlier ANRB version before. (XP SP3, Quad, enough RAM).

As tarbat and I have the same file, as downloaded from the public section of the forum, and we're not having these issues - maybe you need to try this one?

Yes a bit confusing

I think the 2009/09/28 02.22 was either the original FULL public v3.06 beta or the updated FULL public beta released shortly after the first one.

I thought the version I was running was the updated exe that AirNav released to fix the 20 second real time update problem, so maybe they updated that as well after it was originally released as it is different from the one Tarbat/Allocator downloaded from the same place.

pjm - did you have any problems with 3.01 beta? I had much the same trouble with that one.

I have three versions available on the PC: Airnav 2009, 3.01 and 3.06.
Both versions of 3 show the same problems.

I wasn't aware of the fact that there are different versions all named 3.06 Beta around! I've downloaded my copy on the initial release date and would have thought, it's the latest release since. I am no expert on software development, but isn't it good practise to increase the version number once changes are made?

Seems to be yet another standalone version been released

I hadn't previously noticed the problem - until you highlighted it.
