apoplexy v2.2b released

[Norbert]

I've just released version 2.2b of apoplexy.

The GNU/Linux version is available here.
[Edit: and...] The Windows version can be downloaded here.

Changes since the last version are:
* Workaround for SDL bug #2274.
* Freeing message surfaces to prevent memory usage increase.
* When zoomed, properly displays large ruins and temple backgrounds.
* Fixed a mouse with interface buttons interaction problem.

All of those are bug fixes, and almost of of them have been fixed thanks to David's insightful comments.
Thanks David!

* Workaround for SDL bug #2274.

I think you did something wrong.
(1) My suggestion was: cvt.buf = (Uint8 *)malloc (dlen*(cvt.len_mult+1)); (see viewtopic.php?p=14355#p14355)
(2) But 2.2b contains: cvt.buf = (Uint8 *)malloc ((dlen * cvt.len_mult) + 1);
I changed (2) to (1).
(2) does not prevent the crash.

I attached the port to this post.
To make the zip smaller, I deleted the png folder, and didn't include the games.
The DLLs are included.

(2) does not prevent the crash.

Oh, I'll fix that in the Linux version (of 2.2b) later today, then when I announce 2.2b both versions are as they should be.
Strange that I make such mistakes (similar here); still only human...

I attached the port to this post.

Thanks again!

Alright, I've added a link to the full Windows package to the first post of this thread.

I found a bug: If I want to place a purple guard, looking left, the editor places a light blue guard instead.
It's caused by a typo in line 13571:

Code: Select all

case 102: case 203: iTemp = 6; break;

That 203 should be 103.

I found another small bug, aesthetics-related, but it's one that nobody else will probably ever notice.
I'll be keeping an eye on the stack of bugs; might warrant another release at some point.
Are you working on a PoP1 level or were you just testing some stuff?

Note to myself (for the future): see 2. for a previously unnoticed bug.
