Current work on 1.98

Some words about the current work on 1.98 - will come about end of july if all works fine.
There will be an optional binary update which brings the better distance fog back and some extension which may used in the future. Below some bug fixes like for the storage shortcut, silver bug spawn and some more. I did add the new ai again with tweaked parameters. The storage will do an alpha sort on item names to make a end of the disorder ;) There will be more but damageable shape-shift cloaks dropped by monsters - which you may know if you was on Halloween map. There will be also an item shop where you buy cloaks, mounts, pets and some other stuff.
Currently I'm working on the guild implementation which is about 20% done.
I fear Sunferat will not get it into that update since there are about hundreds of todo's left on that map so we'll try to make it in 1.99. There are also some issues with the quests since I removed the quest cancel on map change - until now it's not decided how to fix them or how to locate them all. Bug fixing and make some things a bit smoother are on higher priority since I actually planed to make it out of beta for 2008, now it's 2010 so it I've some kind of hurry :P Out of beta does not mean we'll stop working on it but I mean things will not drastic change any more.

Edit: D3D mode will be removed and windows installer will be tweaked to work better with Win Vista and 7 and still work with XP.

Small delay on 1.98. I had some other things to do in the last 2 weeks so the update will be not this month.
