Fixes and Changes

• Memory leaks in proptree found and fixed.
• Message decoding no longer triggers an exception and stackwalk.
• More memory leaks in proptree found and fixed.
• Memory leaks in saveui found and fixed.
• Buffer overrun in equipment window when right-clicking an equpped item

with a very long name found and fixed.

• Uninitialized buffer in sound manager causing crash when sound is disabled found and fixed.
• More uninitialized buffers in sound manager found and fixed, may prevent

future crashes and weird behavior.

• The client will release the cpu above 60FPS, allowing the CPU to be used for other

applications or idle down.

• The number of terrain layers requested at once while downloading terrain has been reduced

to shorten the client-server lag while downloading new terrain.

• Dragon flight behavior above the max fly height has been changed to prevent "The Rift Jump".
• 383.13: UI change to display an item's minimum and maximum level requirements if any.
• 383.15: Possible crash point fixed: unloading a partially built sector may cause a crash.
• 383.15: Character position updates are now sent when your character is moving, not every half second.

Issues Known But Not Fixed In This Build

• Loading terrain while the client window is minimized will crash the client.

Issues Discovered During Testing

• Attempting to selling a plot crashes the client. (fixed in 383.15)
• The owner biote id for each sector isn't saved properly. The file terrain_info.def will show

"int ownerID = 0" for almost every sector generated by the 383.x clients.

(Fixed in 383.15)

Incorrect build environment caused client to require a version of msvcr8.dll that may not be present on all supported platforms. (Fixed in 383.15)

Regression Tests Passed

Note: The purpose of comments added to this page is for feedback for this client build only.

Comments that do not fit this purpose may be moved or deleted (with no penalty nor ill-will

towards the author of the comment).

Note 2: This client has gone to Blight as build 383.13.

Note 3: 383.12 had a UI addition and was (will be) released to Blight as build 383.13, hopefully on

Jul 21. A copy of this client can be obtained (once it is released) by patching to Blight and making

a copy of the following files:

• istaria.exe
• encryption_client_lib.dll
• pt_lib.dll
• ptps_lib.dll

Note 4: A zipped up PDB file for 383.13 is available. Download and unzip istaria.pdb to the same

directory as istaria.exe. When the client crashes, the crash reporter should generate a stack trace

with more useful information. This PDB file is only for 383.13.

Note 5: Due to the impact of not being able to sell plots with the 383.13 client, a new build (probably 383.14) with the fixes in "Issues discovered during testing" may be pushed directly to Blight in a day or two.

Note 6: 383.15 available for testing. This one should work.
