Wanted: older version of Focus - rwparris2 - 2009-04-20

I'm looking for older versions of focus... specifically the one before all the fonts got smaller and 4:3 still workd.

Jeroen (or anyone else) do you still have it?

If I recall correctly Alpha 5c was the last one. That one is still available on the google code page.

Think it is 5b. That is the version I am using.

5b is there... I forgot to try 'All Downloads' instead of just current. Thanks!

Totally forgot there's still the old box.net account before I switched to google code.

I had to a lot of problems with old Focus w/NTSC support and newer XMBC builds, specifically 4/4 T3CH build. I upgraded from Oct. '08 build and Focus became really unstable, such as locking up my XBOX when changing System settings. It was so bad that I couldn't even change the skin from Focus to something else without a lock, I had to FTP into the XBOX and move Focus out. Tried a fresh install of 4/4 with same results, moved back to Oct. build and everything was fine.

If you have similar problems could you please just confirm?

Thanks

Using older versions of skins on newer versions of xbmc will cause problems somewhere along the line.

With that being said is there any chance for just a bug fix for the NTSC supported version of Focus?

I have the same symptoms using pal 4.3 the setting menu is unstable and add source doesn't work.

I doubt it has anything to do with NTSC, but if you mean if there will be bug fixes for older versions, then no. Do you have the same problem with the last version? (I know about the adding sources problem in the last version, I have it fixed in my version but I want to complete some other things as well before releasing an update.

Your newer Focus is HD only, no NTSC 4:3 support, so the older version would need the updating. I never looked into it myself but are the source files avaiable if someone wanted to bug fix that older version? If they are not could they be made avaiable?

Thanks Jeroen.

The source files are already there in the download, these are always editable. The only sources not available are the textures at the moment. When I release an updated version these will also be made available as it will be going up on the skinning SVN.
