Solved

• There is a glitch in versions 20090204 and 20090204a where the shield is not mapped correctly. Instead of displaying the blue circle, there is now a black shroud with two alternately fading white circles.
  • Fixed in versions 20090204b and later.
• There is a glitch with the Boosters but not the Thruster Devices. Boosters will not move in a straight line, instead swerving slightly to the left. Thruster Devices will go in a straight line.
• When creating Temp Event Templates, I have to save first before I make one or else Fraxy will crash (with an Error 7). --CrossTheRubicon
  • I have been unable to reproduce this glitch, has anyone else reported this problem? --NightKev (sysop) 23:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
• Seems to be fixed.
• There may be a flaw involving the Sol Activator in version 20090524beta - 20090528beta. Sometimes when I destroy a boss, usually with it active, it will crash with Error 1. I think I've heard some other people having a similar problem. RX-12 08:21, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Used "Sol Activator" and destroyed a boss with it active, no errors/crashing. When exactly does this glitch occur, what is happening when it occurs? --NightKev (sysop) 19:20, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
    • Specifically, when the boss is about to blow up, Fraxy will crash with an Error 1. Usually it is when the Sol Activator is active but there was 1 case when it was not active so I'm not 100% sure it's the Sol Activator. RX-12 19:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
      • Sounds like it has to do with the bosses that are being destroyed, then. Which bosses were you/they fighting when this occured? --NightKev (sysop) 19:35, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
        • The one most prominent test was simply an inactive Big Core. No events, no additional parts. RX-12 19:39, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Refined: I tested it and it seems to occur when I enter the Player Status menu while in Fraxy. Perhaps changing any of those stats (weapons, regen rate, ship type, etc.) causes this to happen. RX-12 19:58, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
    • So I destroyed a boss with the Sol Activator on, went into "Player Status" and changed around my weapon levels/etc, nothing happened still. Is this what you did when the glitch occurred? --NightKev (sysop) 20:13, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
      • Yes. But for an exact step by step. Here is the end result: Error 1
      • 1) Enter the Player Status, changing anything is optional.
      • 2) While playing, activate Sol Activator.
      • 3) While it's active, destroy the boss.
      • It seems to also occur for the Vulcan. Perhaps the first weapon slot?

• Well from what I can gather from the Fraxy homepage google-translated description of errorcode 1, it sounds like there's something wrong with the fraxy.cfg file. Iif the error happens again, delete the fraxy.cfg file and run config.exe again and re-set all your settings. --NightKev (sysop) 04:34, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

• Seems to be fixed.

Unsolved

• i'm having a little trouble with the 20090715beta_patch's "PLAYERSHIP" command; more specifically, the ship type parameter. right now i'm looking at my status screen saying that i have an Attacker ship, although the weapons aren't changed to reflect the ship type... --Freecom 01:46, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
• There is a minor graphical problem with the Sonic Wave M and L parts (they look glitched flipped). Also, when flipped to the rear, all parts seem slightly offcenter. RX-12 22:23, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
• Some mp3s will not play ingame, even though Fraxy lists them. RX-12 00:25, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
  • On a side note, I reconverted the problem mp3s using FLV Player and Fraxy played them properly. RX-12 14:01, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
• In v20091219beta, the Energy Wall Extra Parameter 2 = -1 and Extra Parameter 5 = 1 will cause the wall to connect with the proper distance but will not move with the parts, instead staying at origin. This will also happen with any of the other combined values using 1 as a base (1+0, 1+4, 1+8, 1+16, etc.). Use 0 or 2 for the base of Extra Parameter 5 when using the wall to connect to another part.

Surprises

• Sometimes when you run fraxy in the 20090330 beta, a message pops up saying 'Impossible! This must be some mistake!' Fraxy still runs, but it gets annoying after a while. Although it rarely happens, and I don't know why.
  • That's because the beta is more of a front for one of the best April Fools jokes ever. Answering No for the question and I guess I have no choice will enable Graxy, a near perfect recreation of Gradius V, stage 1 made in Fraxy. Currently, it is known to only occur on April 1st. Graxy is now a standard Try.
• In 20091219beta, there's a hidden gift that can be found while fighting a creation on 12/25. Press Esc and look to the right of the screen. Choose the present icon and your treated to the message Happy Holidays!" in addition to full weapon levels and a sizable Over Soll lasting 255 seconds. RX-12 05:50, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
