Topic: SMF 2.0.8 Released

[OCJ]

This has produced the biggest drop in the number of errors in the SMF log, though most are not be serious anyway.

[Kindred]

well -- the base installation - without any mods - of 2.0.8 will not product ANY errors.

[OCJ]

True... that's why I thought it was a bit strange - how come the error log went down so much when this is an SMF patch and most of the errors are from mods!

Probably a few of them edit pieces of code that has been changed with the new upgrade. Strange though as I have 90 mods installed and none of them spammed my error log when I upgraded to 2.0.8 from 2.0.7 >_<

It's never good to have so many mods installed. They can cause numerous problems.

And I thought I had too many mods installed. :p

Then you get the crazy people like me that package up entire site conversions as a single mod

[Kindred]

lol....  I've maxed out at 213 mods installed...   at that point, I started running into overlaps between mod functionlaity

Yeah I know that's why I am safe I have seen you once saying this so... If you did that I shouldn't have problems with "only" 90 and they don't overlap in any way, even though some of them needed extra tweaks to work together properly.

It's never good to have so many mods installed. They can cause numerous problems.

As long as they don't hit too much the server, the error log is clear, they are somehow "safe" and useful it's not a big deal it took me like 2 months to do things properly and I still haven't finished, I'm waiting an important update by margarett since I have to install one of his mods (login/logout track) but I need the prune function. >_<

Is there a max mod install limit? Or is it unlimited? :p

[Arantor]

There are limits internally but you'd never get to them without seriously doing something wrong with your life.

Even automating it would take a seriously insane amount of time. Let us assume you could install a mod and uninstall it a second later. At one per second, you'd be at it for decades.

[OCJ]

Is there a max mod install limit? Or is it unlimited? :p

The only limit is your sanity. How long you can suffer fixing problems and code edits.  Often mods that edit code already modified.
I try and keep mods to a minimum so they install and uninstall without manual edits.  Now about 30 and that seems ok.

[Arantor]

No, no, there is a limit in the database too. But you'll never get to it, you will indeed suffer for your sanity before you get there

[Mstcool]

Oh, wow. Lol.

[Masterd]

No, no, there is a limit in the database too. But you'll never get to it, you will indeed suffer for your sanity before you get there

That's how many digits?

[Arantor]

10 digits. 2^31-1 entries permitted safely. Double that under some circumstances.

Thanks for the upgrade.
