OpenMW 0.40.0

[robcbwilson]

Did a quick test of 0.40.0 on Windows 10 64 bit and it works fine

Congratulations everyone on another release

How long after the actual proper release is the chocolatey package likely to be updated?

Congratulations to your new release!

Looks like a real milestone towards the final. Could one say, that the 0.40.0 is kind of RC 1 of openmw-1.0?

Btw: You made my day. I was reading your forum since yesterday afternoon, and at the and of the day I found: "Hey, they're out"

Really, really great work.

We'll have a keen look what's going further on here.

Once more:

Gratz and Congratz.

Now starting bughunt

Played a few hours yesterday of the latest release, damn this engine is shaping up really pretty! Even with the original assets at times it looks great, I finally got rid of my AMD card (got a 1070) so I've been able to turn on the water shaders and DSR without my CPU causing it to grind to a halt. Nabbed a few screenshots, hope Imgur compression doesnt wreck these too much: http://imgur.com/a/e88sZ

Care to put them here?

Ah, didn't know about that page, will do!
Edit: Done. Took a while to upload 4K screens (~7MB apiece!) but the quality is better than Imgur.

The water looks awesome doesn't it

As soon as the front-page post is up basically, they won't accept the package until then.

Well, that and the GitHub release has to be done so I have a reputable download source for the files.

A for shadows, they will come with next release or?

Maybe yes. Maybe and more probable no. I guess scrawl's currently still busy with RL and will code rarely. Perhaps 0.41.0 will be a bugfix release again.

Off-topic: I'm a little experienced with C++ and tried to deal with some bugs, and here's how it went on example of Bug #1662:

1. Hm, this Japanese locale bug looks interesting, I should take a look on it.
2. OK, this is a similar stackoverflow question with the problem, but not solution — Japanese profile usernames on Windows ain't being properly converted or something.
*after some time*
3. Yeah, this should be the cpp file in question.
4. ...
5. wtf isn't working??

eh.
