Week of the stable windows..

I've had a very nice weekend indeed. Lots of wow gaming and a little bit of hacking on the game, not much though. I'm now level 28... yay.

I did manage to fix the most severe bug in the windows build. It concerned the time stamping of network packages that got completely wrong because of an uninitialized variable in the client code (shame on me). It took me quite a while to discover that bug, but when it was demolished all network problems disappeared.

What I believe to be the final windows bug is identified and I'm planning to fix it this week. This means that the windows build is just as stable as the linux, and I plan to keep it like that from now on. It's just too cumbersome to make big changes in linux and the at a later point make it build in windows.

I haven't heard anything from the audio and the model guys I got in contact with, so I don't think anything will come from that front. On the positive side, I just discovered a new game collaboration site, primarily focused on content creators. I've added myself as a member in order to get in contact with some people.

Oh, regarding the title of this entry. I'm planning have a specific focus each week starting with "week of the stable windows"... stay tuned for the next entry title.
