I have already committed a potential fix for this to the FarCry p230 tree. We needed it for our project and I decided to add it as an optional parameter which defaults to the current behaviour. We'll have to see if it makes it into the HEAD branch of CVS, but I don't see any good reasons why not. > > 2.

This just requires some careful reporting of where this sort of thing is happening and which errors are being suppressed that shouldn't. There are many, many places in FarCry where you definitely do want the errors to be supressed in all cases and going through all of them one by one is likely to lead to more problems than it solves. I certainly intend to make a move to sort out the FarCry error suppression issues in a reasonable way. Even if the default behaviour is the same as now if you can change it with an application variable it would be a good step forward. > > So that's what i told geoff at 2am this morning... probably told him > over and over again.
