I'm two weeks behind since I stopped watching over the holidays, but Google searching the forums didn't show a mention of anyone else noticing this small bug, and I even just pre-ordered and downloaded the code (something I was wanting to do soon anyway) to see if it is fixed in the current version and it isn't yet. In the StretchDIBits call that puts the game on the screen, when you changed it to have a 10-pixel offset from the top left so there's some black there, you forgot to add the offset to the target width and height, so right now you're actually shrinking the screen slightly.

It's obviously not shipping code, but you did say it was kind of nice to do the 1-to-1 pixels during development.

Also, the purchase confirmation email for the pre-order doesn't actually mention Handmade Hero anywhere. Would be nice to have that to make it easier to find later. : )

StretchDIBits function expects width and height of target rectangle, not offset of bottom right corner. So nothing is shrunken on screen. You just need to specify top left X and Y coordinates where to start draw rectangle (our offsetX/Y) and no need to worry about coordinate of bottom right corner.

As per the documentation for StretchDIBits (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/l...esktop/dd145121%28v=vs.85%29.aspx), it uses top-left corner and width/height, not min-max, so you do not need to change the parameters when you offset the top-left corner.

Really? That is odd - it is supposed to say Handmade Hero in multiple places, actually. Can you send me a screenshot of the e-mail you received? ([email protected])

Thanks,

There are only two mails "From: Handmade Hero <[email protected]>"
One is the receipt for the order, where it is mentioned multiple times, and the other one contains the link, where it is not mentioned.
You should easily find them when you search for the sender.

Ah, that makes sense. Sorry! : )

Will do. The receipt mentions it once, but the email with the code link (the one I actually want to find again : ) doesn't.

The ones I got do not show that as the return address. And if I decide to go grab the code again in a year and a half I might have trouble remembering to search for the "sendowl" address. I worked around that for myself, but thought Casey would like to know.

Looking into the mail situation now. It appears to be a bug in SendOwl. I have notified them and hopefully it will get resolved soon...

In theory, this should be fixed now. It was a SendOwl problem.

More like SendOwl of Shame, amirite? : )
