Amethera and Eudoria maps loads fine but how do I mark my finds and public finds on it?

Here's another bug for you, first few times I used ifound with PE (window mode), it kept crashing on me. Quite annoying! So I decided to take notes of my finds and input it later.

Hi,
i thought its quite pointless to add a "real" map for the domes. So they look just blank. I will change that later so you can choose if you like to have a pic of the map in the background.
At the bottom of the Map-Window are checkboxes. Just choose if you like to see only your finds, the public finds, or both by checking them. Also choose the ores/enmatters from the lists you like to see. You can mulitselect, use "shift" and "ctrl" like you know it from fileselection. Press show and it shows up.
You can change the colors for the ores & enmatters by clicking on the color field next to the name of the ore/enmatter.
You can also select a region on the map by drawing a selection (hold down l.mouse.button, and drag the mouse over the area of your choise). A window will pop up and show the details to the finds.

Crashes might happen with NVIDIA cards and more often the older your driver is. There is a bug with quicktime and the NVIDIA drivers
If that happens a lot to you just deactivate the "advert system" in the Settings (sorry, should have been in the latest update, but its not.. i will upload a new version within the next 2 hours).

Selene B:
There will be an option to import NRF logs soon

EDIT: Update will be ready for download in 10 min. Just switch off the "Advert System" if iFound crashes or try to use the newest NVIDIA driver for your GFX Card. To switch it off: Go to "Settings" and deselect the CheckBox. Close the Settings windows (settings will be saved on close) and restart iFound.
You can still listen to CND Radio if you like, its not affected.

I have a brand new 8400 GeFarce (I mean Force) GFX with the lastest drive, let me see if switching off Advert System will change things. If not, I'll have to download the new version.

I strongly suggest you (all) allways download the newest version. Updating is really easy. Either replace the iFound.exe itself in you old iFound folder, or copy the DB from you old iFound folder to the new iFound folder (replace the files there).

The Public iFound Database holds more than 2.2k ore/enmatter claims now!

I still have lots of RL stuff to do at the moment but next version will come soon.

If you found any bugs or if you have some suggestions, this is the right time to post them


Thanks and happy mining!

I wonder how many of those i contributed?

around 800?

My compliments and +rep for a nicely designed and very useful app. I've now entered and shared about 1000 claims. Yes, recording the claims adds some time to each mining run. But having the data entered in this app is well worth the time and effort.
I used another tracking program for a while. In my opinion, this is far superior. Keep up the good work Bear and thanks for your help in response to my pm.
