Problem uploading past high scores for some rooms (+2)
Hi I've been playing DROD for a few years but the launch of RPG2 is the first time I've had caravelnet and a forum account. So I was excited to upload my 1000s of high scores to have an online record of everything I've done, but I've encountered a few problems I thought I should share. My apologies if this describes a known problem. This is all playing in the steam version on windows.
1)When I first clicked the button on the change settings page to upload all the high scores, it verified a lot of them but it also seemed to fail to verify a lot of them. Clicking to upload all of them again verified a bunch more of the ones it missed the first time. Clicking again a third time only got a few more of the missing ones. But there was still some rooms missing that I was able to upload after that by selecting to upload from that hold specifically in the change location screen.
2) Clicking to upload scores for the Descent of King Hesper on the change location screen will crash DROD with a popup saying it is a runtime error.
3) Some of my replays seem like they always fail to verify when uploaded, both from the change location screen or individually from the F6 screen, even with repeated tries. One notable example is the hold "Narrow Perspectives", which I completed Nov 2024, and it only verified the entrance so it was listed as conquered with 1/48 rooms. I can view the replays just fine. I replayed 1W while connected to Caravelnet and it uploaded and verified that just fine.
As an experiment I disconnected from Caravelnet, recompleted 1E, reconnected and tried to upload that new score and it would not verify. I replayed 1E again while connected and it verified that just fine, so I now have 3/48 rooms uploaded.
For another example from an official hold, I completed Gunthro Dec 2022 and it has 2 rooms that failed to verify with repeated upload attempts of those specific replays. Smuggler's Maze 5N and Bractea Town 3E. I replayed 5N just now while connected and that verified fine.
One more example, King Hesper is failing to verify 9 rooms from Guarded Outpost, 4 rooms from parched plaza, and a bunch of rooms from other levels I haven't tried specifically uploading to confirm they won't verify.
