7
8 TODO: multi-line paragraphs get indented strangely (book: collection of strange glyphs).

17
18 - upgrade to libSDL 1.2.14 for the GNU/Linux and windows binaries.
19 - replace level by minimum level, and damage by effective casting level
20 (for servers > 2.93).
21 - added some commandline arguments: <host> <user> <password>,
22 for the developers mostly.
23 - try a different method of avoiding music-related crashes.
24 - cfplus editor support protocol fixes.
25 - apply some common::sense 3.1 :)
26 - implement bandwidth-usage debug option.
27 - renamed env variable CFPLUS_DEBUG to DELIANTRA_DEBUG.
28
29 2.10 Fri Jan 15 16:14:02 CET 2010
30 - fix blending factors to avoid white-out when fow_intensity > 0.
31
32 2.09 Tue Dec 22 01:40:24 CET 2009
33 - implement smooth fow/lighting transitions by blending.
34 - make fow texture configurable and add stipple/transparent versions.
35 - empty "Host" field will now default to gameserver.deliantra.net.
36 - do not crash when the user enters an invalid value into "Host".
37 - fix positional rounding on (pre-c99) windows.
38 - use a pack/unpack alignment of 1 by default everywhere, drop alignment
39 code in fow_texture.
40
41 2.06 Fri Dec 4 15:35:33 CET 2009
42 - work around the Apple/NVIDIA font problem (a bug in glTexSubImage2D that
43 apple has no intention to fix, so we do the slow read/update/write way).
44 - work around various ATI/Mesa driver bugs in glTexImage2D by always
45 providing initialisation data for textures. Do they ever test their drivers
46 with, say, some newbie opengl code?
47 - stat change messages did not differentiate between attuned, repelled etc.
48 - work around a bug in the nvidia driver which mishandles alpha textures
49 with env mode REPLACE, causing all magic maps to be white only.
50 - do not use mipmapping for tiles - the trade-off was not worth it.
51 - fix packaging the pango modules twice in the linux and windows binaries.
52
53 (2.05) Tue Sep 29 11:21:00 CEST 2009
54 - intermediate os x binary release only.
55 - linking against the opengl library works everywhere, except on Mac OS X 10.6,
56 which some people even spent money on (this seems to break a great number
57 of opengl apps actually).
58 - (os x binary) update libsdl to 1.2.14.
59
60 2.05 Tue Sep 15 20:31:15 CEST 2009
61 - changed completer algorithm, thanks go to marcmagus!
62 - try to work around crashes in SDL_Mixer when reinitialising it.
63
64 2.04 Sun Apr 26 21:03:40 CEST 2009
65 - work around incompatible ABI change between 1.22 and 1.24 by using a runtime check,
66 this really is a bug that needs fixing inside pango.
67 - include a japanese font (Mona, selected for license and size) with the distribution.
68 - include our own fonts.conf file, to speed up startup and to be able to control
69 font selection.
70 - change confusing login successful message to "connect to server successful".
71 - update BDB and EV in win32 builds to work around the event loop creation bug.
72 - fall back to blocking dns resolve before using a hardcoded address.
73
74 2.03 Tue Jan 20 14:54:30 CET 2009
75 - move experience label, progress bars and slot info to the menubar.
76 - move toplevel menu into a menu popup.
77 - use fontsize for chekcbox size requests to get a better layout.
78 - autopickup spellbooks, skillscrolls and valuables by default.
79 - automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options
80 to Setup=>Client to control this.
81 - fix positioning of popup windows.
82 - move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
83 - correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
84 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
85 detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
86 windows, unfortunately).
87 - fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
88 - reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
89 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
90 tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
91 ports).
92 - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
93 breakage.
94 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
95 forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
96
97 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
98 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
99 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.
100 - don't lie about the window size anymore in fear of crashing
101 the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).
102 - correctly draw the speech bubbles and other overlays even when the
103 topmost face isn't visible.
104 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
105 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
106 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
107 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
108 log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
109 - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
110 problem.
111
112 2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)
113 - rewrote the client tutorial which can be found via the 'Help!' button.
114 - fixed the mostly random switching of message window tabs when
115 new tabs were added.
116 - small typo fix in tooltip on the Skills page in the playerbook.
117 - avoid accessing potentially undefined memory when drawing the map.
118 - fixed speech bubbles which were drawn below some objects sometimes.
119
120 2.0 Fri Dec 5 15:42:51 CET 2008
121 - the Log window can't be close anymore by alt+x
122 - pressing return or alt+x directly after start won't crash the client
123 anymore.
124 - the Log window is displayed correctly now after start.
125 - darken the invisible/cached parts of the map further.
126
127 0.9978 Sun Nov 9 14:35:41 CET 2008
128 - correctly smooth-move the healthbar as well.
129 - own text is emphasized in the NPC dialogues now.
130 - fixed a crash bug in the macro dialogue.
131 - fixed updating of tooltips of the tabs in the message window.
132 - closing tabs with Alt-x won't let them disappear for every anymore.
133
134 0.9977 Tue Sep 30 09:27:29 CEST 2008
135 - require newer BDB version to avoid possible database corruption or crashes
136 on login.
137 - fixed the often choppy smooth movement.
138 - switch to proportional font in log view.
139 - improve the paragraph indent hack to align characters better.
140 - tweak server message output.
141 - optimise visibility handing in multiplexers (only put the current tab
142 into visible state).
143 - reduce the number of unnecessary refreshes.
144 - allow empty multiplexers.
145 - fixed clearing issue in the inventory upon logout.
146 - use the same workarounds for pango for gnu/linux binaries as we use for osx,
147 but additionally patch the pango library because stupid braindead idiotic
148 debian maintainers of course apply custom patches that completely break it.
149
150 0.9976 Fri Sep 5 17:28:30 CEST 2008
151 - use keysym not unicode symbol, maybe that helps with some of those keyboard
152 issues on OS X.
153 - treat meta like alt for built-ins, for OS X.
154 - fix tab tooltip listing key shortcut off by one.
155 - disable texture compression with apple software renderer. if you want to get
156 something that works, apple is for you. not.
157 - fix text encoding for item description tooltips.
158 - enlarge window borders considerably.
159 - support lzf-compressed packets.
160 - support fragmented packets.
161 - send crash and opengl vendor information to server for better debugging.
162 - fix crash when displaying the tutorial with the precompiled os x
163 binary: libjpeg collided with libJPEG - long live case-insensitivity :/
164 - cater for the incompatible changes in berkeley db 4.7.
165 - enable highest-resolution video mode again.
166 - add some preliminary theme support and two demo themes, "plain" and "blue".
167 - avoid a crash when the minimap is reduced to zero size.
168 - work around a bug in perl 5.8 perls (Bareword "Socket::AF_UNIX"...).
169
170 0.9975 Wed Aug 27 22:16:27 CEST 2008
171 - use biggest video mode <= 1024x768 by default now (previous releases had a bug
172 that caused them to select the smallest vdieo mode available).
173 - ported to the rather horridly broken apple os x platform,
174 using macports (the only non-broken part of the whole thing).
175 - clarify/fix weight/value autopickup option with a tooltip and a server change.
176
177 0.9974 Fri Aug 1 15:45:59 CEST 2008
178 - implement smooth scrolling for the player.
179 - try a different workaround to maybe register Deliantra::Client.
180 - support switching off of alpha framebuffers, to work around
181 possible fallback-to-software-renderer problems.
182 - allow video modes <800x600 to be selectable.
183 - decode player from map1ax.
184 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.
185 - improve the slider widget.
186 - use AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
187 - upgrade to BDB 1.7.
188 - properly clear mapcells in all cases, also try a heuristic to avoid
189 player ghost images.
190
191 0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008
192 - added a dummy "package Deliantra::Client" to bin/deliantra, as
193 cpan stupidly cannot install distributions by name.
194 - convert to new non-blocking API.
195 - support IPv6 server connections.
196 - the chat tabs now have tooltips again.
197
198 0.9972 Thu May 22 22:45:01 CEST 2008
199 - save all map changes in map cache, not just the current map (this fixes
200 the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).
201 - use an even more compact format for minimap data.
202 - use an uncompressed cache for minimap data, increases memory requirements
203 (~1mb) but saves compression.
204 - close container, clear inventory, floorbox etc. to avoid a crash when
205 clicking on them after logging out.
206 - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
207 2.54+).
208 - try to ignore repeated keypress-events for movement, as
209 these are usually keyrepeats.
210 - added default (0) for the shift_fire_stop setting
211 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.
212 - avoid crashes if map cache is corrupted.
213

218 - fix stat tooltips by not lowercasing keywords in pod2wiki.
219 - fix longstanding bug where the stats tab would be removed during chargen.
220 - fix menu alignment.
221 - change podwiki format to be slightly more generic.
222 - ignore pseudo-items in floorbox, only show in inventory.
223
224 0.9970 Sun Mar 30 13:30:47 CEST 2008
225 - fix a bug in tile id allocation, the effect of this bug
226 was effectively disabling the tile cache, upgrade is highly
227 recommended.
228 - fix npc dialog.
229 - upgrade the database schema (i.e. nuke it...).
230 - only open the database before forking the bg server.
231 - PRECOMPILED BINARY: use packaged libdb4.6 instead of libdb4.4.
232 - use newer BDB module (might fix the filename encoding issue under win32).
233 - use a real bdb sequence for the faceid, for better performance.
234

238
239 0.9967 Mon Mar 24 01:24:07 CET 2008

241 problems under windows).
242 - work around a bug on windows where the layout font is being ignored.
243
244 0.9966 Sat Mar 22 14:26:05 CET 2008
245 - when the message window is hidden and the input is activated, it will
246 become visible again.
247 - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,
248 leading to a naughty memory leak
249 - the highlighting of the chattabs were deep blue where they should have been
250 deep red :-)
251 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
252 (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident
253 anymore).
254
255 0.9965 Sat Jan 19 05:51:39 CET 2008
256 - work around a database race condition by using single-threaded
257 database access.
258
259 0.9964 Fri Jan 18 06:30:13 CET 2008
260 - fixed a bug where the message fontsize wasn't set correctly

264 - further rename database directory.
265 - further "branding" of cfplus => deliantra.
266
267 0.9963 Sun Jan 6 18:27:02 CET 2008

269 - ignore keyboard modifiers we are never interested in.
270 - improve interactivity by using a prepare, not an idle watcher,
271 for screen refreshes.
272 - limit the time spent in database handling, so we refresh the screen
273 even during ongoing heavy texture loading.
274 - load tile map at startup, not at connect time.
275 - tweak database accesses.
276 - widget protocol version 2, supports ui templates.
277 - increase horizontal padding for buttons a bit.
278 - preallocate texture name when switching video modes and the
279 texture can only be loaded in the background to avoid
280 something else taking over.
281 - increase padding for all text entries.
282 - work around a bugfix in pango that no longer is necessary
283 (but causes a bug with new pango versions, argh.)
284 - use supposedly faster readonly pango functions wherever possible.
285 - Canvas widget properly restores line and point widths.
286 - fix padding calculation.
287 - change semantics for align/valign in labels to behave like other
288 alignment values.
289

293 - fixed unneccessary repetition when firing in a direction
294 when 'only shift-up stops fire' is off.
295 - do not render some glyphs twice. doh.
296 - fix two problems that would cause endless
297 refreshes even when idle (up to 60Hz).
298 - optimise refresh strategy to not refresh more often than 60hz,
299 even if it means to delay updates up to 1/60th of a second.
300 - updated the dejavu fonts to version 2.22.
301 - switch from Crossfire to Deliantra module.
302 - switch from ~/.crossfire to ~/.deliantra,

304 - fix some opengl races that could freeze deliantra during shutdowns.
305 - moved client-specific modules into a private subdirectory.
306 - moved client-specific resources into a private subdirectory.
307
