2 root 1.2
3 root 1.184 2.04 Sun Apr 26 21:03:40 CEST 2009
4 root 1.183 - work around incompatible ABI change between 1.22 and 1.24 by using a runtime check,
5     this really is a bug that needs fixing inside pango.
6 root 1.182 - include a japanese font (Mona, selected for license and size) with the distribution.
7     - include our own fonts.conf file, to speed up startup and to be able to control
8     font selection.
9 root 1.181 - change confusing login successful message to "connect to server successful".
10 root 1.182 - update BDB and EV in win32 builds to work around the event loop creation bug.
11 root 1.184 - fall back to blocking dns resolve before using a hardcoded address.
12 root 1.181
13 root 1.180 2.03 Tue Jan 20 14:54:30 CET 2009
14 root 1.174 - move experience label, progress bars and slot info to the menubar.
15     - move toplevel menu into a menu popup.
16 root 1.175 - use fontsize for chekcbox size requests to get a better layout.
17     - autopickup spellbooks, skillscrolls and valuables by default.
18 root 1.174 - automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options
19 root 1.175 to Setup=>Client to control this.
20     - fix positioning of popup windows.
21     - move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
22 root 1.177 - correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
23 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
24     detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
25     windows, unfortunately).
26 root 1.176 - fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
27 root 1.178 - reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
28 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
29     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
30     ports).
31     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
32     breakage.
33 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
34     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
35 root 1.171
36 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
37 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
38 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.
39 root 1.162 - don't lie about the window size anymore in fear of crashing
40     the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).
41 root 1.163 - correctly draw the speech bubbles and other overlays even when the
42     topmost face isn't visible.
43 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
44 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
45 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
46 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
47     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
48     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
49     problem.
50 root 1.162
51     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

89 root 1.129 0.9976 Fri Sep 5 17:28:30 CEST 2008

104 root 1.126 - enable highest-resolution video mode again.

109 root 1.108 0.9975 Wed Aug 27 22:16:27 CEST 2008
110 root 1.107 - use biggest video mode <= 1024x768 by default now (previous releases had a bug
111     that caused them to select the smallest vdieo mode available).

115

118 root 1.94 - try a different workaround to maybe register Deliantra::Client.

120     possible fallback-to-software-renderer problems.
121     - allow video modes <800x600 to be selectable.
122 root 1.95 - decode player from map1ax.
123 root 1.98 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.
124     - improve the slider widget.
125 root 1.96 - use AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.

130     0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008
131 root 1.92 - added a dummy "package Deliantra::Client" to bin/deliantra, as

139     the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).
140     - use an even more compact format for minimap data.
141     - use an uncompressed cache for minimap data, increases memory requirements
142     (~1mb) but saves compression.
143 root 1.85 - close container, clear inventory, floorbox etc. to avoid a crash when
144     clicking on them after logging out.
145     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
146     2.54+).
147 root 1.83 - try to ignore repeated keypress-events for movement, as
148     these are usually keyrepeats.
149 elmex 1.81 - added default (0) for the shift_fire_stop setting
150 root 1.80 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.
151 root 1.86 - avoid crashes if map cache is corrupted.

185     become visible again.
186     - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,

189     deep red :-)
190 elmex 1.60 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
191     (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident

199 elmex 1.56 - fixed a bug where the message fontsize wasn't set correctly

209 root 1.40 - improve interactivity by using a prepare, not an idle watcher,
210     for screen refreshes.
211     - limit the time spent in database handling, so we refresh the screen
212     even during ongoing heavy texture loading.

214     - tweak database accesses.
215     - widget protocol version 2, supports ui templates.
216 root 1.41 - increase horizontal padding for buttons a bit.
217 root 1.42 - preallocate texture name when switching video modes and the
