    Test Release v3.3.6

    FG v3.3.6 is now in beta testing. The plan is to push the new version in about 3-4 weeks.

    As always, we're a small company so we rely on our community to help sound out each new release. Thanks in advance to all those who pitch in.

    Please see the sticky thread on public testing if you want to be involved. Only the Test mode slot contains this version. I will update this thread as I release new iterations of the test version.

    Key Things
    1) Always backup your campaign data before running the test version.
    2) If the GM is running on test then all of the players will also be running on test.
    3) If you encounter an issues log them in the relevant testing thread - don't use the generic House of Healing, but use this thread.

    Thanks,

    Also, the following changes to the CnC ruleset:

    • Add Defenseless effect (AC: -10).
    • Make critical hit / fumbles optional.
    • Automatically create init effect from NPC record.
    • Make 0 the minimum initiative.
    • Add Aihrde calendar function.
    • Initiative effect fix.
    • Add Notes field to Encounter records (allows links to parcels / etc).

    That's right, we were in testing with those changes. I'll add to release notes.

    As some sharp-eyed folks have already noticed, there is a 64-bit build of Fantasy Grounds included in the v3.3.6 download package.

    However, I want to be clear on our position for this build. Since the third party software libraries used by Fantasy Grounds were never designed or tested to be built as 64-bit libraries, it is unknown to us whether these rough library ports will work fully. Also, since the libraries were not written by us, we have minimal expertise or knowledge of how to fix these libraries to work as 64-bit libraries if they don't work fully.

    Therefore, this build will be considered a hidden "experimental build" of the program. This means that if the program doesn't work for you, then our answer will be to use the "release build" (i.e. 32-bit) version of the the program. While, we are hopeful that the naive 64-bit port of the program will be good enough (or easy to fix), there is also a good chance that it won't ever fully work, will never be a viable option, and/or we will discontinue access to it.

    You're welcome to use the experimental build while it is available, and provide us with feedback. However, we will not be officially supporting the build until we determine it is viable (which could be quite a while). Also, you will need to set up your own shortcut to access the executable at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Fantasy Grounds\FantasyGrounds_x64.exe".

    At this point, we have only done some preliminary testing with the build internally and it has not been used in any sessions. The plan was to put it in the patch system, so that we could have our internal team run a few sessions, and then ask some of our community members to give it a try. We have noticed some minor graphical anomalies in preliminary testing already.

    I've been doing some testing - not in session yet.

    The main thing I've seen is that the mouse cursor doesn't change, it stays as the pointer for some operations:

    - for resizing maps you don't get the cursor change to the resize graphic.
    - for drag/drop fields you sometimes don't get the hand graphic... Although, doing a test just now with PFRPG default theme the hand does appear for drag/drop operations... I can't seem to recreate this now - I'll post if I get a 100% recreation process.
    Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages. General FG questions should be asked in the forums - don't be afraid, the FG community don't bite and you're giving everyone the chance to respond and learn!

    It seems that, with the 64 version, i can use more tokens before the program start freezing, perhaps 1 hundred more (above that it start freezing again). I note a mouse bug from time to time (randomly the pointer get a black square behind it).

  10. #10
    The number of tokens you can load will be directly impacted by the resolution of those tokens. I have thousands of tokens loaded on my machine, but they are all 50x50 or 64x64. The standard token modules now come as 100x100.
