1.9.8 second instance run

Postby Kilinich » Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:49 am

If Algodoo already running file must be opened in same instance (from browser or IE), but 1.9.8 sometimes allow to open a new Algodoo and lag like hell.

upd: OS Windows 7 x64

upd2: Algodoo.exe without any params always open new window without "Already running" check. Is that ok?

The correct behavior is this: when opening a scene, it should always open in an existing Algodoo instance. When starting Algodoo in any other way (clicking a shortcut) a new instance should open.

And that's how it works on my Win7x64 machine.

If you have this issue again, please post the logfiles from both the new instances (Logfile.txt and Logfile2.txt)

Looks like it's false alarm. Can't reproduce, it works fine. Most likely that was because I've use "runas" for FAR application and it's running in another user context so just ignore that post ;)
