Hello,
Thankz for this verry nice game.
I ported to Os/2, but when i play the game and have a new highscore it's not updating, i use debug and see this...
U:\QT4_Progs\tubularix\debug>tubularix.exe
QSettings: failed to set subkey "HighScores5\score3": Error 87
QWaitCondition: Destroyed while threads are still waiting
Some users say it;s missing up the registery and could not set highscores any more.
Any thoughts ?
Hi, thanks for porting the game.
Does the game store settings like window size or last game mode correctly? If it doesn't, the problem should be QSettings itself and I don't know how to solve it, as I've never used OS/2 and I don't even know if QSettings should work in OS/2.
I found this:

corelib: OS/2: QSettings: Use QLatin1String().
Maybe adding this code:
for(int i = 0; i < stringListSize; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < stringList[i].size(); j++)
stringList[i][j] = stringList[i][j].toLatin1();
}
at line 655 in mainwindow.cpp would solve the problem, or maybe you must convert some other QString to QLatin1String in other setting related places.
Try this if you want and let me know if it works.
Hi,
I tried this and now it's keeping the High scores. I send the modifeid exe to the guy that reported the problem and see whats he reported back, thanks for you're response :)

Esto es una puta mierda. Programador del palo. This is a holy shit
