Yuck, that’s horrible! I saw an article the other day that popped up in my Google news about the housing market in Germany and how crazy it has become in the past few years. The article was mostly focused on Berlin, but I am assuming it is being felt everywhere. Berlin was proposing to cap rent at n...

Side note: I was having troubles logging in to the forums before I realized I was using an old password. It got me thinking that (just in case) I should give someone else admin rights so that we never get locked out of the forums if my account gets messed up in some way. So I changed Karl to "r...

Get well soon, Jer. The scrolling as well as the party tail code are especially messy, I fear, so this is likely quite cumbersome to port over to IBx. This stuff gets extra tricky in a streaming, seamlessly connected scneario (neighbouring areas set up) and even more so in darkness/night when the l...

Downloading v184 as well. I updated IBx to use the same draw routines as IB now so smooth scrolling is working...at least it is on main maps, but there is still that weird combat issue that I need to track down in IBx. Once I have that fixed, I'll post the new build to GooglePlay+TestFlight and then...

So this weekend didn’t go as planned as I have been out sick. I started trying to address some graphic engine issues I introduced in IBx that are different from the way IB does them for the smooth move feature. I’m trying to fix IBx to work the way IB does and this may take a bit time to implement.

Today I finished implementing sound in IBx. It is great to hear all the wonderful music in Hearkenwold on my iPad and iPhone X. Plus I get those fun attack sounds too :D I also worked on fixing the script loading issues and I think I have that fixed now. It will need further testing by those who use...

Yes, but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to try... think of the wonderful tales we could tell at the tavern is we survived

Today I worked on fixing some of the main map and combat UI layout issues for different sized screens and aspect ratios. I also increased the font size as much as possible without creating other issues. Next up, I will try and finish implementing the script file loading part of IBx.

Sorry to hear about the RL yuckiness (sp?) I hope all turns out okay in the end, but it doesn't sound like a fun ride. On the selfish side, it will give me a chance to catch up with all the IBx UI, sound, script loading, and other issues before IB has a v184

That looks great! On a side note, my party decide to explore around a bit near the tavern. We wondered into the mountains and came across an interesting creature which quickly produced a party wipe I think I'll come back and give it a go in a bit. Most of my party is level 4 or 5 now.
