    Security-Drone: of course not. MrCube1337: it was text only, I basically had to remove it anyway lol.

    Jacob, thanks for taking my post off of FP, I don't know why it was there in the first place.

    Anyone know of a good free tts vocal synthesizer that sounds like the 80's?

    Voyager15: well if you haven't updated tptmp in ~7 months then yeah, it won't work. We did move servers. Also the script is updated with 91.0 support which you will need too. Latest tptmp version is .87 I think.

    @Jacob1, it's been awhile since I've been on, and I attempted getting onto the TPT Server. Keeps saying "Closed" when I type in /connect, is there a new server or script I need to download for it?

    I should probably investigate more, probably some resources should be cleaned up earlier anyway.

    I think it was only after you have incomplete downloads (like, if you sat in the save preview and the thumbnails from the search you did were never fetched), and then waited 20 seconds for the downloadmanager thread to shut down. The downloads were never canceled or completed by the main thread that started the download. So when you exit the game it tries to cancel them and clean up any data. It was calling the Cancel() function on each remaining download, which would deadlock every time

    jacob2: at what particular time would it occur?

    (continued) when I put the extra thread safety back in my mod I missed a line. If you exited at a certain time it would go past two threading locks and then attempt to use the lock again. It just waiting forever for the lock to be released. Not sure how much you know about threading, buy try not to have any deadlocks (:

    DoritosTaco: hmm? You want to use lua with Java? Or just learn both lua and Java? I know lua has an official tutorial, is pretty short because lua is so simple. PortalPlayer: it was a deadlock. My mod has a thread running which handles all the downloads. I recently ported it to TPT++ to "fix" the crash when opening saves (old code was terrible and unsafe, it was easier to replace it all since my mod already had it). I made it a little more thread safe for tpt++ despite it not being necessary.
