It seems build process is broken - a last nightly is dated by April 5.

Apparently I somehow managed to lose the ACS patch on my kernel just before leaving for FOSS-North, so my build VM wasn't able to boot.
Fixed that problem, and have almost finished building a new set of nightlies now.

I mean, I don't think people would overly mind if the release packages were tested as well.

Windows release builds;

32-bit
64-bit

I remembered to remove the shadows DLL from the build this time too, since it slunk in when I built nightlies.

Yeah, sorry. I've had to do a small change to the repo during the RC period, which means it hasn't been able to cleanly switch to the nightly build branch during that time. I should probably set up a separate OpenMW build environment for the RCs, but I honestly haven't had time to do that right now....

The moment the release is tagged, release packages can be built - but at the same time distro maintainers will also start bumping OpenMW. So that starts a clock to get the release out before people become confused why they're on 0.45.0 while the official site reports 0.44.0 as the latest release.

Another round of Windows RCs;

32-bit
64-bit

These ended up with the shadow DLL in them as well, forgot to clean up the release directory.

I don't think Windows 10 itself is the issue here, the OpenMW builds that I produce are all built on - and locally tested on - Windows 10.

Have you installed the correct drivers for your laptop? It's possible that you're ending up rendering on the Microsoft provided software rasteriser otherwise.

I've seen a couple of projects do changelogs by having a changelog folder, with small one-line markdown files for every change, that are then merged into a changelog file at release time.

The NSIS installer is not really configurable enough to modify the setup pages themselves, we'd probably have to switch to wix to be able to do more customization in our CMakeList. At the moment, if you want to do anything more than the default installer then it requires modifying CMake itself and w...
