- merge net_udp6.c into net_udp.c
  http://www.viagenie.qc.ca/en/ipv6/quake2/ipv6-quake2.shtml
- kill off ctf/q_shared.c, it's identical to src/q_shared.c (Actually, work
  out redundant code and merge them... maybe some sort of libshared.a)
- clean up the #ifdefs that are throughout the code to be has-a
  tests instead of is-a. (using HAVE_* from configure instead of __blerg__)
- separate the video refreshers
- the video refresher loader code in src/vid_menu.c needs cleaning up, it's
  utter bollocks at the moment.  all the structs are very fragile, depending
  on specific ordering of each element.
- do va_list audit -- check that argptr isn't used twice (as per 
http://gozer.quakeforge.net/list-archives/quakeforge-cvs/2002-April/000151.html
  Everything seems to be fine, someone with a PPC machine will probably want
  to double check this.
- investigate the possibility of savegames not being tied to a particular build
- split out assembler per arch/os (we currently have gas i386 and win i386)
- make sure that we give back the mouse and keyboard if the game crashes
- split out the sound code into separate modules, like the vid_refs already do
- dynamically get video resolutions from the X server (or SVGAlib or whatever)
  instead of hardcoding them... or do both
- have a look at http://bw-admin.sourceforge.net/ and
  http://www.planetquake.com/q2admin/ and see about merging in these tools.

- updated TODO list 2002-04-09 08:48:47 +00:00			`- merge net_udp6.c into net_udp.c`
- Added an URL to ipv6 code to the entry in TODO. 2002-10-29 13:58:18 +00:00			`http://www.viagenie.qc.ca/en/ipv6/quake2/ipv6-quake2.shtml`

			`on specific ordering of each element.`
- Created acinclude.m4 with checks for VA_COPY and VA_LIST_IS_ARRAY. Currently not needed, but I suspect we may need them as we gain functionality; cf. dstring.c in quakeforge. - Updated configure.in to check for above tests. - Updated TODO list noting the va_list audit. 2002-05-02 15:45:55 +00:00			`- do va_list audit -- check that argptr isn't used twice (as per`

- Added AUTHORS file noting people who contributed on the project. - Added HACKING for developer notes. - Updated README to be more of a README. - Updated TODO list. - default don't build xatrix and rogue - rolled back save game changes from 6 days ago, as they suck. Save games are a complex beast and need someone to redesign them so that they aren't tied to a particular build. In the meantime, though, I'm not losing any sleep over it, there's a note in the README about it, so time to close this bug. (Closes: #15) 2002-05-02 12:45:05 +00:00			`- investigate the possibility of savegames not being tied to a particular build`
			`- split out assembler per arch/os (we currently have gas i386 and win i386)`
- Added a new cvar, "gl_stencilshadow". Off by default, set it to 1 to enable stencilbuffer shadows. (Turn gl_shadows on first!) Based on MrG's tutorial on quakesrc.org, but hacked a bit to work for GLX instead of Win32, and is a bit more robust (won't die if it can't get a stencil buffer). - Updated TODO list to reflect this change. 2002-05-03 08:50:13 +00:00			`- make sure that we give back the mouse and keyboard if the game crashes`
- Updated TODO list 2002-07-17 06:43:34 +00:00			`- split out the sound code into separate modules, like the vid_refs already do`
- Added idea about automatic resolution detection to TODO. - Updated AUTHORS file. - Added THANKS file, with the names of all the people who sent in bug reports, contributed code, helped test quake2, and so on. - Added the NEWS file for the 0.1 release. 2002-09-18 04:28:23 +00:00			`- dynamically get video resolutions from the X server (or SVGAlib or whatever)`
			`instead of hardcoding them... or do both`

- Added CCAS and CCASFLAGS to configure.in, so that automake 1.5 does the right thing with assembler. - Updated TODO list. 2002-05-03 03:53:38 +00:00

- The "Yay, the server is finally back online" checkin. - Added resolutions for the Sony Vaio Pocketbook and the Apple Titanium Powerbook, as well as a note in HACKING for people wishing to add their own resolutions. (Closes #33) I have an idea involving querying the X server for supported resolutions at runtime, or through some API that we can use to do it portably (to SVGA/3dfx/Win32). 2002-05-07 07:57:59 +00:00			`X Adding new video resolutions`
