17
18 - fix a bug where the fog of war texture wasn't initialised in areas
19 that haven't been seen yet, causing blinking/glittering effects.
20 - Pod::POM now understands =encoding.
21 - minor speed enhancements.
22 - package libjpeg in the linux client.
23 - convert more watchers from EV to AE.
24 - call Mix_Init instead of loading/unloading on demand.
25 - moved bulk of main program into DC::Main.
26 - do not FATAL in $SIG{__DIE__} when inside an eval context, regardless
27 of $^S.
28 - add "current downloads" to media page, mainly for debugging.
29 - (os x binary) work around OS X passing some serial number as commandline
30 argument, breaking all programs supporting commandline arguments.
31 (HOW STUPID CAN THEY BE? WILL IT EVER BOTTOM OUT?).
32 - (os x binary) work around os x dll hell different, maybe that
33 fixes some of the reported lion issues.
34 - (wndows binary) update sdl, sdl_mxier, sld_image, also bundle mikmod.
35
362.11 Sat Apr 24 10:08:34 CEST 2010
37 - support overriding the audio driver at runtime, for folks who know
38 what they are doing.
39 - upgrade to libSDL 1.2.14/SDL_mixer 1.2.11 for the GNU/Linux and
40 windows binaries, and also compile in multiple drivers (pulseaudio
41 disabled currently because it's too sucky and crashes on probe).
42 - replace level by minimum level, and damage by effective casting level
43 (for servers > 2.93).
44 - added some commandline arguments: <host> <user> <password>,
45 for the developers mostly.
46 - try a different method of avoiding music-related crashes.
47 - cfplus editor support protocol fixes.
48 - apply some common::sense 3.1 :)
49 - implement bandwidth-usage debug option.
50 - renamed env variable CFPLUS_DEBUG to DELIANTRA_DEBUG.
51 - display audio driver name that is in use.
52 - try to show splashscreen earlier.
53
542.10 Fri Jan 15 16:14:02 CET 2010
55 - fix blending factors to avoid white-out when fow_intensity > 0.
56
572.09 Tue Dec 22 01:40:24 CET 2009
58 - implement smooth fow/lighting transitions by blending.
59 - make fow texture configurable and add stipple/transparent versions.
60 - empty "Host" field will now default to gameserver.deliantra.net.
61 - do not crash when the user enters an invalid value into "Host".
62 - fix positional rounding on (pre-c99) windows.
63 - use a pack/unpack alignment of 1 by default everywhere, drop alignment
64 code in fow_texture.
65
662.06 Fri Dec 4 15:35:33 CET 2009
67 - work around the Apple/NVIDIA font problem (a bug in glTexSubImage2D that
68 apple has no intention to fix, so we do the slow read/update/write way).
69 - work around various ATI/Mesa driver bugs in glTexImage2D by always
70 providing initialisation data for textures. Do they ever test their drivers
71 with, say, some newbie opengl code?
72 - stat change messages did not differentiate between attuned, repelled etc.
73 - work around a bug in the nvidia driver which mishandles alpha textures
74 with env mode REPLACE, causing all magic maps to be white only.
75 - do not use mipmapping for tiles - the trade-off was not worth it.
76 - fix packaging the pango modules twice in the linux and windows binaries.
77
78(2.05) Tue Sep 29 11:21:00 CEST 2009
79 - intermediate os x binary release only.
80 - linking against the opengl library works everywhere, except on Mac OS X 10.6,
81 which some people even spent money on (this seems to break a great number
82 of opengl apps actually).
83 - (os x binary) update libsdl to 1.2.14.
84
852.05 Tue Sep 15 20:31:15 CEST 2009
86 - changed completer algorithm, thanks go to marcmagus!
87 - try to work around crashes in SDL_Mixer when reinitialising it.
88
892.04 Sun Apr 26 21:03:40 CEST 2009
90 - work around incompatible ABI change between 1.22 and 1.24 by using a runtime check,
91 this really is a bug that needs fixing inside pango.
92 - include a japanese font (Mona, selected for license and size) with the distribution.
93 - include our own fonts.conf file, to speed up startup and to be able to control
94 font selection.
95 - change confusing login successful message to "connect to server successful".
96 - update BDB and EV in win32 builds to work around the event loop creation bug.
97 - fall back to blocking dns resolve before using a hardcoded address.
98
992.03 Tue Jan 20 14:54:30 CET 2009
100 - move experience label, progress bars and slot info to the menubar.
101 - move toplevel menu into a menu popup.
102 - use fontsize for chekcbox size requests to get a better layout.
103 - autopickup spellbooks, skillscrolls and valuables by default.
104 - automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options
105 to Setup=>Client to control this.
106 - fix positioning of popup windows.
107 - move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
108 - correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
109 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
110 detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
111 windows, unfortunately).
112 - fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
113 - reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
114 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
115 tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
116 ports).
117 - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
118 breakage.
119 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
120 forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
121
1222.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
123 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
124 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.
125 - don't lie about the window size anymore in fear of crashing
126 the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).
127 - correctly draw the speech bubbles and other overlays even when the
128 topmost face isn't visible.
129 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
130 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
131 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
132 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
133 log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
134 - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
135 problem.
136
1372.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)
138 - rewrote the client tutorial which can be found via the 'Help!' button.
139 - fixed the mostly random switching of message window tabs when
140 new tabs were added.
141 - small typo fix in tooltip on the Skills page in the playerbook.
142 - avoid accessing potentially undefined memory when drawing the map.
143 - fixed speech bubbles which were drawn below some objects sometimes.
144
1452.0 Fri Dec 5 15:42:51 CET 2008
146 - the Log window can't be close anymore by alt+x
147 - pressing return or alt+x directly after start won't crash the client
148 anymore.
149 - the Log window is displayed correctly now after start.
150 - darken the invisible/cached parts of the map further.
151
1520.9978 Sun Nov 9 14:35:41 CET 2008
153 - correctly smooth-move the healthbar as well.
154 - own text is emphasized in the NPC dialogues now.
155 - fixed a crash bug in the macro dialogue.
156 - fixed updating of tooltips of the tabs in the message window.
157 - closing tabs with Alt-x won't let them disappear for every anymore.
158
1590.9977 Tue Sep 30 09:27:29 CEST 2008
160 - require newer BDB version to avoid possible database corruption or crashes
161 on login.
162 - fixed the often choppy smooth movement.
163 - switch to proportional font in log view.
164 - improve the paragraph indent hack to align characters better.
165 - tweak server message output.
166 - optimise visibility handing in multiplexers (only put the current tab
167 into visible state).
168 - reduce the number of unnecessary refreshes.
169 - allow empty multiplexers.
170 - fixed clearing issue in the inventory upon logout.
171 - use the same workarounds for pango for gnu/linux binaries as we use for osx,
172 but additionally patch the pango library because stupid braindead idiotic
173 debian maintainers of course apply custom patches that completely break it.
174
1750.9976 Fri Sep 5 17:28:30 CEST 2008
176 - use keysym not unicode symbol, maybe that helps with some of those keyboard
177 issues on OS X.
178 - treat meta like alt for built-ins, for OS X.
179 - fix tab tooltip listing key shortcut off by one.
180 - disable texture compression with apple software renderer. if you want to get
181 something that works, apple is for you. not.
182 - fix text encoding for item description tooltips.
183 - enlarge window borders considerably.
184 - support lzf-compressed packets.
185 - support fragmented packets.
186 - send crash and opengl vendor information to server for better debugging.
187 - fix crash when displaying the tutorial with the precompiled os x
188 binary: libjpeg collided with libJPEG - long live case-insensitivity :/
189 - cater for the incompatible changes in berkeley db 4.7.
190 - enable highest-resolution video mode again.

192 - avoid a crash when the minimap is reduced to zero size.
193 - work around a bug in perl 5.8 perls (Bareword "Socket::AF_UNIX"...).
194
1950.9975 Wed Aug 27 22:16:27 CEST 2008
196 - use biggest video mode <= 1024x768 by default now (previous releases had a bug
197 that caused them to select the smallest vdieo mode available).
198 - ported to the rather horridly broken apple os x platform,
199 using macports (the only non-broken part of the whole thing).
200 - clarify/fix weight/value autopickup option with a tooltip and a server change.
201
2020.9974 Fri Aug 1 15:45:59 CEST 2008
203 - implement smooth scrolling for the player.
204 - try a different workaround to maybe register Deliantra::Client.
205 - support switching off of alpha framebuffers, to work around
206 possible fallback-to-software-renderer problems.
207 - allow video modes <800x600 to be selectable.
208 - decode player from map1ax.
209 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.

211 - use AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
212 - upgrade to BDB 1.7.
213 - properly clear mapcells in all cases, also try a heuristic to avoid
214 player ghost images.
215
2160.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008
217 - added a dummy "package Deliantra::Client" to bin/deliantra, as
218 cpan stupidly cannot install distributions by name.
219 - convert to new non-blocking API.
220 - support IPv6 server connections.
221 - the chat tabs now have tooltips again.
222
2230.9972 Thu May 22 22:45:01 CEST 2008
224 - save all map changes in map cache, not just the current map (this fixes
225 the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).
226 - use an even more compact format for minimap data.
227 - use an uncompressed cache for minimap data, increases memory requirements
228 (~1mb) but saves compression.
229 - close container, clear inventory, floorbox etc. to avoid a crash when
230 clicking on them after logging out.
231 - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
232 2.54+).
233 - try to ignore repeated keypress-events for movement, as
234 these are usually keyrepeats.
235 - added default (0) for the shift_fire_stop setting
236 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.
237 - avoid crashes if map cache is corrupted.
238

243 - fix stat tooltips by not lowercasing keywords in pod2wiki.
244 - fix longstanding bug where the stats tab would be removed during chargen.
245 - fix menu alignment.
246 - change podwiki format to be slightly more generic.
247 - ignore pseudo-items in floorbox, only show in inventory.
248
2490.9970 Sun Mar 30 13:30:47 CEST 2008
250 - fix a bug in tile id allocation, the effect of this bug
251 was effectively disabling the tile cache, upgrade is highly
252 recommended.
253 - fix npc dialog.
254 - upgrade the database schema (i.e. nuke it...).
255 - only open the database before forking the bg server.
256 - PRECOMPILED BINARY: use packaged libdb4.6 instead of libdb4.4.
257 - use newer BDB module (might fix the filename encoding issue under win32).
258 - use a real bdb sequence for the faceid, for better performance.
259
2600.9968 Tue Mar 25 20:28:16 CET 2008

263
2640.9967 Mon Mar 24 01:24:07 CET 2008

266 problems under windows).
267 - work around a bug on windows where the layout font is being ignored.
268
2690.9966 Sat Mar 22 14:26:05 CET 2008
270 - when the message window is hidden and the input is activated, it will
271 become visible again.
272 - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,
273 leading to a naughty memory leak
274 - the highlighting of the chattabs were deep blue where they should have been
275 deep red :-)
276 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
277 (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident
278 anymore).
279
2800.9965 Sat Jan 19 05:51:39 CET 2008
281 - work around a database race condition by using single-threaded
282 database access.
283
2840.9964 Fri Jan 18 06:30:13 CET 2008
285 - fixed a bug where the message fontsize wasn't set correctly
286 - do not call glTexSubimage2D on 0x0 bitmaps, as this
287 crashes newer nvidia drivers.
288 - fix chatbox label padding.
289 - further rename database directory.
290 - further "branding" of cfplus => deliantra.
