Seriously though, the next release of the game is neeeeeearly out. True, still a couple of weeks (Talad returns in 9 days, then they\'ll need some time to get things in motion),

When it comes to game releases, you\'re either pessimistic or disappointed ^^

I have learned to be very pessimist with CB release date. That way, if it arrives before my prediction, I get all happy and dizzy. Seeing the CVS I can *almost* taste cb (bleargh, keyboard taste!).

- Finally compiled CB and I am readying the file for distribution. Should be ready by tomorrow.

Gotcha! hehe ^^\"
Sorry about that. :roll:

Anyway, good jog devs, the constant update of the cvs makes everyone happy.

To be honest I thought I\'d get something no one else would look at (I\'m all about originality.) The lines I was looking at were taken from the history about the time I joined the game - late Sept./early Oct. 2003.

- Added a call to PrecacheDraw() every time a region is loaded. This greatly reduces the appearance of \'lag\' during playing because all objects are already precached. Results in much smoother gameplay experience.


Not really funny, but thank you Jorrit! :)  This will be stored in RAM or with temporary files?  I hope its temporary files...


It is not really a cache in the sense of something that needs memory to store. It is just that the first time an object is rendered CS needs to do some setup on that object (i.e. setting up lightmaps and stuff). However, if you do this on PS levels then you have the effect that lots of objects are only setup when they come into view the first time and this may cause hickups. The PrecacheDraw() function I added to CS simply forces CS to do this setup at startup already so that when the object needs to be rendered it is already setup.

Hmm although that would make for longer loading times I\'m guessing...Ah well, longer loading times is better than low FPS. Thanks Jorrit :)

It actually doesn\'t increase the load time that much. Only a few seconds maximum per map that needs to be loaded (usually less then a second). The reason this matters for lag is that even a few milliseconds delay during render time causes disturbing hickups during rendering.

That\'s absolutely true. I can certainly live with longer loading times, but choppy movement is a hell, because it\'s unpredictable and once you get a feeling for the movement, huiccpus become confusing. I mostly have the movement key combos and times \"pre-planned\" (at least for the next couple of seconds) and any blocking naturally results in the sequence being wrong so I usually end up in the tree I wanted to scrape by.

Added several leak guards through PS in an attempt to fix leaks in PS too.

so does that mean that slowly things will fill up with water? we\'re all going to drown!!

Changed psSpell::Effect() to use \'fabs\' instead of \'abs\'

not only do we get fabulous spells, but i don\'t have to get my stomach muscles into shape... though that may not have been a bad thing.
