Revision as of 19:06, 6 May 2009
I'm currently working on XAngband, TinyAngband and now Angband/65. I also understand Japanese, so if you need anything translated let me know.
Angband/65 progress track:
- Apr 21, 2009 : What happened to yesterday? o_O? Today I did a lot of minor fiddling to remove compiler warnings. Now down to 20 compiler warnings from 207 (VC++) and down to zero with Dev-C++ (Warning level 3).
- Apr 22, 2009 : Suddenly a mysterious run-time error appears. :-( It's bizarre in that a function that has not been called is the cause of the crash. I suspect some kind of pointer related problem. [EDIT - it was from forgetting to delete the *.raw files!]
- Apr 23, 2009 : Today I've been mostly considering minor compiler warnings. In particular there are still almost 500 warnings (Warning level 4 now) about type conversions that may cause data loss. I've added a macro that in a debug build will check bounds on some of them. Lots more to do. [EDIT] Now down to 438 warnings, time to stop for the day.
- Apr 24, 2009 : 72 open tickets, 49 closed. Today I closed off a few tickets, ... added more than I closed. Had a bit of a scare with VC++, turned out to be some carelessness with a renamed file (original version left in project as well ...).
- Apr 25, 2009 : 71 open tickets, 55 closed. I suppose this counts as progress. I am hopeful that I will be on schedule for the alpha1 release - but there isn't going to be much time to spare.
- Apr 26, 2009 : 77 open tickets, 58 closed. Ever felt you're going backwards? ;-) Did some fairly drastic hacking out of obsolete (from my perspective) code and have just started putting back the replacements. It's going to be a long job.
- Apr 27, 2009 : 84 open tickets, 58 closed. OK, that doesn't look like much progress from yesterday but I'm half way through a major update. I might finally have the spell system working tomorrow! (Maybe).
- Apr 28, 2009 : That was overly optimistic. Maybe tomorrow, this time?
- Apr 29, 2009 : 82 open tickets, 64 closed. Beginning to doubt that I'll ever get the /64 spell system implemented. :-/
- May 2, 2009 : Lost a couple of days downloading, installing, and getting (slightly) used to Linux. At least I'll be able to check that Angband/65 can be compiled and run in Linux now.
- May 4, 2009 : Made a bit of progress. However I suspect that I will not make the alpha 1 release date. :-/
- May 5, 2009 : Slowly getting the spell system sorted out. (Slowed down a bit by a cold at the moment). Should be able to cross a few tickets off the list tomorrow.
- May 6, 2009 : 81 open tickets, 70 closed. At this rate I may just make the deadline, but there aren't any easy tickets left.
