In class this morning, I tried to demonstrate Wonderland
makeActorFrom: in 3.2-4599...and found that it just plain didn't
work. "w makeActorFrom: 'blah...shark.mdl" would create a shark
actor, but nothing would show up on the screen and no sub-components
of shark would load in. I then tried it in 3.2 gamma -- nothing
there either. I then tried on multiple Windows VMs and on Macintosh
-- no go there, either. I did find that 3.1 still worked fine. (And
that's what I ended up giving my demo in, after 10 minutes of
feverish twiddling.)
I dug in deeper and found that Andreas re-wrote makeActorFrom: in
October. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working (and there were
no comments explaining why it was different), but I found that Jeff's
original version was still in the versions (attached). I loaded that
in, and everything was golden -- everything SEEMED to be working
again.
Is there a fix for Andreas' makeActorFrom:? Is there something that
I've got screwed up now that I'm back to using Jeff's?
