|    NetRunner Telnet v2.0 Beta 15    |
|    29 Jan 16 20:37:31    |
      NetRunner v2.0 BETA 15 has been released at www.mysticbbs.com.              NetRunner is a SDL2-based Telnet client designed to provide the highest       quality ANSI-BBS terminal experience. Versions are available for Windows       XP+ and for Linux both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries.              Sorry for the botched releases last night. I shouldn't have been doing stuff       so late, but hopefully BETA 15 will return us back to stability. :)               BETA 15 RELEASED        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~        - Fixed a bug reading the .INI file that could cause an access violation on        startup               - Enabling the newer more optimized engine, which should be much faster        than the old version. This engine is less tested, but seems stable to        me so far.               - Added an FPS limiter which will calculate and perform delays per frame, so        that NetRunner never runs over 60 FPS. The new engine was getting 2654 FPS        on my machine in standard mode (lol), and 704 FPS in upscale mode without        this, which of course would put tremendous strain on video and CPU.                The lowest I got was ~620 FPS in full screen upscaled with filtering at        full screen 2560 x 1440 resoltion in debug mode. For reference those        numbers came from a i5 2500K CPU @3.3ghz with a 770GTX video card in        Windows 7.               - Latest version will now have upscaling and filtering on by default in the        netrunner.ini file. Hopefully the engine is fast enough now to support        this change.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A1 (Windows)        * Origin: Sector 7 [Mystic BBS WHQ] (1:129/215)    |
