Revision as of 18:10, 29 April 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 16, 2009 : Finally caught up to Vanilla Angband (those folks code fast!). Hopefully I will now be able to make some headway into the tickets due for the 0.0.2 alpha1 release. Noticed a steady trickle of downloads (although it's barely worth downloading at the moment). Fingers crossed that there'll be more feedback with the next release.
- Apr 17, 2009 : Made some progress towards a couple of significant tasks, but (unfortunately) also discovered (created?) a number of nasty new bugs. :-( Probably best I take a break here now.
- Apr 18, 2009 : Currently struggling to find where I messed up with revision 69. Found a couple of mistakes, but nothing that would cause the save file problem.
- Apr 19, 2009 : Got back on track, mostly, but the latest revision of Vanilla Angband has apparently introduced a compile error. It's not my bug (for a change) but until it's fixed I can't tell if I have put in the latest updates correctly or not.
- 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. :-/
