Revision History for YahWho
5/30/93 - Rev 1.0 (Initial Release)
6/6/93 - Rev 1.0a
- Fixed some small bugs involving Yahtzees and Bonuses.
- Added confirmation check when the player is about to score a zero.
- Modified sounds slightly.
- Snow checking option on the Preferences Dialog is only displayed now
when running on a CGA card.
- Added capability to restart a new game with all the same players.
6/7/93 - Rev 1.0b
- Added capability to specify save/load game files. YAHWHO.DSK is no
longer used. Default game files have the author's initials (*.DKG) as an
extension.
6/17/93 - Rev 1.0c
- If a game was in progress when an attempt to load a new game from disk
is made, the desktop is now cleared after the user confirms that they
want to quit the current game and before the Load Game dialog is popped
up.
- Frames around either the Dice or the Scoreboard now go inactive
(single line) when another player's window is selected. Pulled the
frame object into a separate unit for use in other programs. The
necessity to create this object seemed a bit odd to me, especially since
TV provides TFrame. TFrame will not allow itself to be inserted into a
group within a Window. The program will hang if you try! I could have
simply set the ofFramed option bit for the group, but this would not
draw the frame double lined when focused. There is no further need to
override the group's SetState method to have it redraw itself on change
of focus. The frame now looks for the cmReceivedFocus and
cmReleasedFocus messages from the owning group and redraws itself
automatically.
- Added a Roll Counter to the top of the Dice Frame. This handy gadget
has one side effect - it caused any games saved under previous revisions
not to be able to be loaded. Play out your old games with the previous
version before loading this one.
6/18/93 - Rev 1.0d
- Oops! Fixed a bug that prevented YahWho from being able to locate its
home directory. The help file and score files could not be found if
YahWho was run from outside the home directory.
- Added a little DOS 2.x support (c'mon, folks) so that YahWho can find
the Help and Score files by searching the PATH if it is executed from
outside the home directory.
- New creature comfort to automatically capitalize the first letter of
players names in the New Player dialog box. For you techies, this is
handled with a Turbo Vision picture validator. Actually, it capitalizes
the first letter of each word.
- Minor code changes here and there, mostly to improve efficiency and ease
maintenance.
