Issues with 1.76

Now don't get me wrong, I really appreciate you guys releasing a new build with bug fixes... especially for people who are less familiar with C++. This release did encourage me, and probably a few other people, to go back and fool around with features that I hadn't touched in a bit. I figured a consolidated thread of any issues found might be a good idea, so there's a central location for people to post new (or remaining) issues that they found.

A fairly easy to reproduce one I came across -

In Edit -> Preferences: The Effects and Music Volume cannot be changed. Attempting to alter these fields from .8 to anything else, and they always revery back to .8. This happens both with attempting to Apply or Ok changes to these values.

I'm not seeing it here, did you remove 1.7.5 first? It's recommended to remove previous versions as they don't always play nicely together. You may need to remove the GarageGames directory in AppData/Roaming. AppData from a previous version can pollute the newer one occasionally.

Also, we prefer that users not post issues in a consolidated thread, it makes it difficult for us to track any issues.

Yes, I uninstalled 1.7.5 first. I tried deleting the Roaming data, but it still doesn't seem to be working correctly. It is a recompiled version from the 1.7.6 source files packaged with it, and slightly modified to not display Simset.isMember results to the log and Thomas Bang's encryption resource added in... though I don't think either of those changes would break the Volume tabs. I guess I can do a completely fresh install on my laptop and see if it has the same issue.

Still doesn't work for me off a fresh install of 1.76 Pro.
