00:01.21 | blast007 | should I keep the link to 2.4.0 for OS X 10.4 PPC/Intel once we release 2.4.4? |
00:03.36 | BulletCatcher | That'll be better than no client at all. |
00:07.22 | BulletCatcher | I'm good with "Be my valentank" if we release tomorrow. |
00:09.04 | BulletCatcher | In ChangeLog we should collapse all of the RC sections into one. |
00:12.15 | BulletCatcher | Recall that 3e501f4 has a title.png that just says 2.4.4, without RC. |

17:58.31 | blast007 | gonna see if I can add a 'Known Issues' page to the Windows installer so I can mention the AMD+Win10 issue |
18:28.06 | BulletCatcher | Known Issue: You are running Windows. Fix by upgrading to Linux. |

18:39.43 | *** part/#bzflag BZnotify (~BZnotify@192.30.252.42) |
19:18.44 | blast007 | a custom page is more complicated than I was thinking it would be |
19:19.18 | blast007 | so two other options: make a combined 'known issues and license' page, or just put a 'known issues' section on the download page - thoughts? |
19:21.36 | blast007 | suppose I could do both |
19:21.52 | BulletCatcher | Do you think anyone will actually read the license page? |
19:22.17 | blast007 | probably not ;) |
19:23.01 | BulletCatcher | So the download page is probably worthwhile, but if its easy then do the license page too. |

19:33.22 | blast007 | anything else we need to tweak before I change the version numbers? |
19:46.02 | BulletCatcher | Not that I can think of. |
19:46.34 | blast007 | and should we be using "STABLE" or "MAINT" for BZ_BUILD_TYPE? DEVINFO says that final release versions should be "STABLE" or "MAINT", though the making a release section says to use "MAINT" |
19:48.56 | BulletCatcher | I think JeffM would say that M.N.0 should be STABLE, and then M.N.x (where x > 0) should be MAINT. |
19:49.15 | BulletCatcher | So: MAINT. |
19:49.52 | blast007 | k |
19:50.36 | BulletCatcher | It's not an important distinction to me, and I'd be happy to remove it entirely. |
19:50.51 | blast007 | yep, we'll look at it again for 2.6 |
19:59.08 | macsforme | yeah MAINT for now, for consistency |
20:01.17 | blast007 | is there anything in Xcode that needs to be touched for the version number? |
20:01.40 | blast007 | Xcode/config.h (as mentioned in src/date/buildDate.cxx) doesn't seem to have anything |
20:02.13 | macsforme | I believe it's all dynamic |
20:02.51 | blast007 | k |
20:03.16 | BulletCatcher | "git grep -F 2.4 -- Xcode" finds nothing, so the version number does not seem to be there at all. Yay. |
20:08.49 | macsforme | I thought you had me change something for the first RC build, though... I guess in a3e7e502 I removed all version-related stuff from Xcode/config.h |
20:08.56 | macsforme | so we should be good |

20:26.41 | alezakos | fyi, bz needs a couple of changes to build in VC 2015 |
20:27.07 | BulletCatcher | It isn't too late. |
20:29.55 | blast007 | alezakos: I noted that it will probably not with in more recent versions and included a download link for 2010 express |
20:30.04 | blast007 | not build in* |
20:32.41 | alezakos | IIRC only some #include <algorithm> lines were needed, plus a fix for the isNan function which is defined both in C++'s standard library and a win32 platform filr |
20:32.53 | alezakos | file* |
20:33.13 | blast007 | the dependencies are a bigger issue, though it might be possible to use pre-built ones without issue |
20:33.34 | blast007 | let's hold off for 2.4.6 on that |
20:34.03 | macsforme | is it our goal that nothing in ChangeLog should exceed the 80 column? |
20:34.10 | BulletCatcher | yes |
20:34.41 | blast007 | 80 characters excluding line endings, iirc |
20:35.06 | macsforme | it's messed up, then |
20:36.38 | blast007 | I don't see any crossing the 80 character mark in my editor |
20:36.48 | blast007 | some of them are exactly 80, though |
20:37.00 | BulletCatcher | Oops. I made 1 line too long. I'll fix it unless you are already on it, macsforme. |
20:37.09 | blast007 | oh, yeah, I didn't grab that last commit |
20:38.21 | BulletCatcher | grumbles at his Emacs window size |
20:39.33 | alezakos | would it be better if all API changes were grouped together? |
20:40.07 | blast007 | what kind of API changes? |
20:40.44 | alezakos | all the new functions and events in the bzfs plugin API |
20:41.00 | blast007 | oh, in the ChangeLog you mean? |
20:41.05 | alezakos | yup |
20:42.05 | blast007 | in my opinion, don't worry about it |

20:47.50 | *** part/#bzflag BZnotify (~BZnotify@192.30.252.42) |
20:49.40 | BulletCatcher | Only version 2.0.0 has more ChangeLog entries (129) than 2.4.4 (109). |
20:50.38 | BulletCatcher | We have actually done quite a bit of work in the nearly 2.5 years since 2.4.2 was released. |
20:54.25 | alezakos | something I don't like: the option "automatically pause the console" in the GUI menu is too long |
20:55.18 | the_map | "auto-pause console"? |
20:57.13 | the_map | btw, I think that the "Lithuanian" setting for "Locale" has issues, like not displaying the character it means to display |
20:57.34 | the_map | some of the settings say "0xC4AEjungti" |
20:57.58 | the_map | ...it has Klingon? |
20:58.29 | the_map | and 1337 |
20:59.42 | the_map | and redneck |
20:59.53 | the_map | this is why bzion's not done! |
20:59.54 | the_map | :P |
21:01.09 | BulletCatcher | We wanted to include Ferengi, but no one would contribute it for free. |
21:02.21 | the_map | googles ferengi |
21:03.53 | BulletCatcher | The Ferengi are motiviated by profit, and little else. |
21:05.16 | the_map | oh, just like Watto! |
21:05.19 | the_map | iirc |
21:05.35 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: are they the ones that failed to monetize the light saber technology? |
21:08.20 | BulletCatcher | One of many species, I'm sure. |
21:25.45 | BulletCatcher | 2.4.4 builds cleanly for me on Fedora 23 and Red Hat EL 6. |
21:25.46 | BulletCatcher | Poor me will now test the client for awhile. |
22:12.07 | blast007 | seems to be good on Windows |
22:12.32 | BulletCatcher | No problems playing it on Linux. |
22:12.38 | blast007 | the installer creates a shortcut for 800x600 windowed mode. Should I include other sizes too? |
22:12.55 | BulletCatcher | (Except I get killed an awful lot, but that isn't a regression.) |
22:13.55 | BulletCatcher | Can you detect the current screen size and match that? |
22:14.56 | blast007 | not with a shortcut |
22:15.15 | blast007 | only reason I'm thinking about it is for the poor AMD users right now ;) |
22:16.16 | blast007 | and a 1920x1080 windowed mode game doesn't fit on a 1920x1080 resolution desktop |
22:17.31 | blast007 | (the size affects the *inside* of the window, so the border and title bar add to that |
22:17.34 | blast007 | ) |
22:19.19 | alezakos | should I push the "Automatically pause the control panel:"->"Auto pause control panel:" change? |
22:24.49 | blast007 | alezakos: what issue does it cause currently? |
22:32.15 | BulletCatcher | I think it just hurts his eyes. :-) |
22:37.59 | blast007 | wondering if it's scaling the fonts down |
22:38.20 | the_map | alezakos: "auto-pause ctrl panel" |
22:39.23 | the_map | if someone's feeling ambitious, they could rewrite all of the options in a monospaced font and have all the options have the same number of characters, so that it forms a nice justified block |
22:39.26 | the_map | :) |
22:40.14 | alezakos | blast007: it looks 90% awesome instead of 100% awesome |
22:43.14 | alezakos | http://vacuum.helit.tech/bzfi0208.png |
22:44.10 | the_map | well, those settings explain the way you play ;P |
22:44.55 | alezakos | why? :P |
22:45.07 | blast007 | I'll just make the other options longer too |
22:46.10 | blast007 | leave it for 2.4.4, we can look into naming conventions later |
22:46.26 | blast007 | I think I'm ready to just tag it |
22:47.13 | alezakos | "leave it" as in "do it later", right? |
22:47.25 | blast007 | yeah |
22:47.32 | alezakos | k |
22:54.44 | BulletCatcher | It might be worth waiting for the Mac build before tagging it. |
22:54.54 | BulletCatcher | I'm not sure what macsforme's schedule is, though. |
22:54.58 | blast007 | k |

23:17.56 | blast007 | so we good to go? |
