2.10 Fri Jan 15 16:14:02 CET 2010

2.09 Tue Dec 22 01:40:24 CET 2009
- implement smooth fow/lighting transitions by blending.

2.06 Fri Dec 4 15:35:33 CET 2009
- work around the Apple/NVIDIA font problem (a bug in glTexSubImage2D that
apple has no intention to fix, so we do the slow read/update/write way).
- work around various ATI/Mesa driver bugs in glTexImage2D by always
providing initialisation data for textures. Do they ever test their drivers
with, say, some newbie opengl code?
- stat change messages did not differentiate between attuned, repelled etc.
- work around a bug in the nvidia driver which mishandles alpha textures
with env mode REPLACE, causing all magic maps to be white only.
- do not use mipmapping for tiles - the trade-off was not worth it.
- fix packaging the pango modules twice in the linux and windows binaries.
2.04 Sun Apr 26 21:03:40 CEST 2009
- work around incompatible ABI change between 1.22 and 1.24 by using a runtime check,
this really is a bug that needs fixing inside pango.

font selection.
- change confusing login successful message to "connect to server successful".

- automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options
to Setup=>Client to control this.
- fix positioning of popup windows.
- move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
- correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
- verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
- fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
- reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
- rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
ports).
- use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
breakage.
- initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
- mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
- make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.

the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).

topmost face isn't visible.
- fix swirly tile draw offset.
- fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
- incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
- handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).

problem.

0.9966 Sat Mar 22 14:26:05 CET 2008
- when the message window is hidden and the input is activated, it will
become visible again.
- the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,
leading to a naughty memory leak
- the highlighting of the chattabs were deep blue where they should have been
deep red :-)
- fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
(hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident
anymore).
