- December 16, 2004, 09:10:42 PMJigsaw Detector v1.0 is now available ;)
Its now a full auto.
From badgehelp.com :
- Made the solver "smarter" and it should solve the puzzles in less time (as much as 1 min less) without increasing the solving speed.
- Removed the "Solver does nothing" option. It now auto detects whether your using MS or Sun Java.
- Solver now solves 100% on easy and medium difficulty levels (has some reports that it didn't do so hot on the easy level)
This is a free upgrade for those who have purchased Jigsaw Helper O0

- December 14, 2004, 12:43:39 PMI've noticed if you turn the sound off in the game, it runs much quicker and there's a lot less "freezing" O0
Personally, i don't mind the freezing. I could hear it still solving, so that didn't bother me.

- December 11, 2004, 12:08:50 AMI paid for this auto, I use it, I trust it, fully. Allow the auto to run its cycle. Run it on "medium" speed and watch what it does before you assume that it is not working. You will not see 80 pieces fly in unison. Sit back, take a deep breath and allow it to finish. It will surprise you. I am dazzled by this auto. Once a month, it will be my little buddy.

- December 10, 2004, 11:17:36 PMYea, this auto is quite different that anyone has seen. I think thats what confusing everyone.
Remember guys, he's a new guy. He does things differently.
Be patient, use the slow setting on the auto and it works best on Medium difficulty.
I finished all 4 cases in one day thanks to Joe's auto O0

- December 10, 2004, 11:14:29 PMI had said earlier that it was not working for me, but after reading what you had said it now is working fine. All you do is have to be patient with it and it will solve the whole puzzle for you and yes your mouse does go crazy, but it is scanning from top to bottom to pick the pieces and solve the puzzle for you in full. Thanks BadgeHelp for another program that I have just purchased. ;) O0 ;) O0 ;) O0

- December 10, 2004, 11:09:50 PMJoe has asked me to post this :
Before submitting a problem report, please make sure you have tried the following :
- Change your desktop to 1024 x 768 and make sure your in 24 or 32bit color
- Use the "Slow" setting on the auto (its really not that slow, and he thinks its still running too fast for the users)
- Turn off anything internet related (file sharing apps, IM's, ftp server, etc)
- Wait 10-15 min (do not stop it any earlier) and see if it will solve the puzzle for you on Medium difficulty.
If you have tried the above and it's still not working for you, then send a problem report to [email protected]
He is working hard to fix any issues you guys are having.

- December 09, 2004, 06:39:29 PMI have not tried this myself, but I suggest anyone who wants this baby to run on auto try using it with Room Rover. Just set Room Rover to close the game every 5 or 10 minutes or however long it takes to solve the puzzles on your computer.

- December 09, 2004, 05:08:35 PMv1.2 is now out O0
Joe has slowed the solver down considerably. It may have temp screen freezes on slower computers (when moving big pieces around) but it is still solving when that happens.
The solver needs to be stop manually at the end the game (just press and hold [ESC] for 5 secs and it will stop shortly after that)
Also, I've noticed that Pogo's Jigsaw game has a nice memory leak. The more games completed, the more memory that game takes up. So if you've been running this for 10 -15 puzzles and things slow down / start acting weird, just close the game window and reload it back up and everything will be fine.
You can download the new version here.

This will only work on easy and medium levels only. On my P4 2.4 it will do a puzzle in 1:30 and on my p3 733 it takes approx 5-7 min to solve a puzzle. I think whats confusing your customers is that the game appears to "freeze" after the first 20 secs of solving (this is normal, it even freezes like this on my best machine). Its going so fast, the screen can't keep up (but the game is still solving!).
Once you start the auto, do not move the mouse and be patient and trust that it is going.
Here are some tips to help make it run faster for you customers :
- Do not have anything else loaded or running in the background (close everything off)
- Turn off anything internet releated (kazaa, file xfers, etc)
- On slow machines, try rebooting your computer first

Press and hold the [ESC] key for 5 seconds. Depending on how fast your computer is, it may take up to 1 min before it will stop.

- December 09, 2004, 10:24:25 AMJust wanted to say that what Bob is saying is exactly what mine does. I have been sitting here watching mine and it does appear to have stopped and then a couple of minutes later the puzzle is solved so for all that are having trouble just be patient and it will solve it for you.

- December 09, 2004, 09:47:33 AMFrom what I understand, some of what you are reporting may be the normal, expected behaviour for the jigsaw auto. Because the solver uses the mouse so much, I doubt you will be able to use your mouse when using this auto at all.
The early versions of the auto I tested would get very far ahead of the game. The game would appear frozen even though the game and the auto were still working. The clock would appear frozen and nothing would move on the screen.
Then, after the game caught up with the auto, the completed puzzle would simply appear. However, that might not happen until a couple minutes after the auto finished doing its part.
I suggest some of you who are using 'Esc' simply try waiting for a few minutes to see what happens. Maybe try starting a puzzle when you have other chores to do about the house to keep you occupied for a few minutes so that you are not tempted to stop the auto.
