We plan on having a better release next tuesday. The windows build seems to cause the most trouble due to problems with DLL's. I will revert this and simply work with the old ones. This is no major problem since the only motivation to use updated DLL's was sdl_image.dll and it's problems with ICC profiles (leading to "gyphon bug", "skeleton archer bug", necromancer bug" etc). For the next release the few remaining problematic graphics will be adjusted accordingly. This will also push performance quite a bit for i used a couple of not performance optimized DLL's for 1.1.3.

We will also head for fixing the worst bugs by then. It won't be perfect but you should at least be able too keep the focus on playing and not desperately trying to prevent running into the next bug.

Hang on, we keep you updated.

I was wondering if some of the performance issues that people were having were due to windows people using the "temp fix" older dlls. I am using XP myself (with said dlls) and I don't think the performance hit is too bad (though it is noticable IMO).

Sounds great! A buggy release that gets fixed quickly (like 1.1.2) is perfectly fine with me. Part of the reason that I play the development branch is to help out with bug finding and so forth.

2. ambushing units are is visible to opponents (when the orbs are visible to opponents, as per #6016

3. minor TC glitch #6017

Thanks! Those are all simple yet useful bug reports (probably all related, too).
And you're a windows user! (sorry biased by a totally pointless report recently..)

Don't know it can be classified as a bug : in the .cfg files of some units (Orcish Crosbow, Orcish Assassin, etc.) there's 2 "icon" attribute for the same "attack" tag, so the new icon isn't displayed.

I think I managed to fix all of those yesterday.

Ok

I didn't know if someone had already mentioned it
