1) spell handler refactored to support modding in general way
2) imunnity icons moved to WoG as they depends on wog`s graphics
3) introduced new class template for handlers (todo: use this in other handlers)
4) save format changed
5) introduced "absolute immunity" - unaffected by "the Orb" etc. (todo: use it in config)
6) new format documented on wiki, added json schema.
* more split of registertypes - fixes 32 mingw build
correct conditions.
All custom conditions are now validated using schema.
Note that some of scenarios may not work due to instant win/loss, mostly
because some placeholders fail to import (Mantis #1643)
campaign:
- new file MapFormatJson that implements small subset of Json map
format, as described on wiki
- vcmi will read overrides from file config/mapOverrides.json (currently
empty)
- Json writer for logical expressions
TODO: write data for map overrides
- By default, cmake will keep debug info
- removed warnings from adventure map infobox (part of #1636)
- adventure map infobox will refresh on artifact changes (part of #1636)
- moved terrain music files to terrains.json file
- player should act before AI in all games, not only campaigns
- new property: affinity (might/magic) since in mods it is impossible to
rely on odd/even numeric indexes
- property commander is now part of hero class
- town hall slots now use string ID's
- converted building requirements to new format
- "upgrades" property from buildings now uses string ID's
- several fixes for improved support of alternative creatures
- removed no longer needed "id" property from structures
Old mods should still work but will produce error messages during
validation
- fixed starting armies of some heroes, including Bron #1602
- (debian) added vcmi-dbg package with debug information
- proper randomization of hero secondary skills, fixes#1603
- second capitol will show up as disabled immediately #1604
- proper deserialization of boost::variant

outdated mods.
- generic support for logical expressions that consist from and/or/not
operators.
- string ID's for buidings are now actually used.
- Minor improvements to JSON validation
- Cleanup in SDL_Extensions.cpp
- Implemented new propery for creature format: idle animation duration
- Disabled idle animation of some of conflux creatures (was clearly
broken)
compiled first.
- changed format of modSettings.json, VCMI should properly update file
on the first run.
- implemented property "defaultTavern" that acts as default value for
"tavern" entry in hero class and town formats.
- moved all traslatable strings into one json file, removed threats.txt file
- implemented "spellbook animation" option
- fixed missing central tower when attacking fort
- split JsonNode.cpp into JsonNode and JsonDetail files
- validation should be notably faster (at least 10% faster loading)
- support for "format" field, allows checking existance of files.
- minor fixes in schemas
- msk/msg files are now optional
- boost-locale library is now required (boost 1.48 or higher)
- Unicode namespace that contains UTF-8 handling
- All non-ASCII strings from H3 data will be converted to UTF-8 during loading
- All JSON files MUST use UTF-8.
- H3 data encoding can be selected via launcher or directly in config file
- launcher uses json parser from vcmi lib instead of one from Qt #1469
- fixed abilities overrides for some creatures #1476
- fixed hero portraits in seer huts #1402
- ttf fonts will render text in utf-8 mode. Not really useful at this point
- new settings entry, available in launcher: encoding. Unused for now.
- credits screen will use multi-line label instead of hackish usage of text box

- minor fixes to last commit
- renamed some methods/classes with better names + some consistency (no more print, setTxt and setText that do exactly same thing)
- TextBox now contains label widget instead of inheriting it
- smooth scrolling support (up/down buttons still scroll one line)
- found situation where JsonNode parser won't report warning: comma after last element in arrays or objects. Fixed this in our config files but parser change is disabled for now due to huge number of warnings from mods.
- new fields in mod format, for use with mod manager (check config/shemas/mod.json for details)
- removed some 0.92 compatibility from mods loading
- several compile fixes
- vcmi can play music files from archives
- converted resource_reward fields in bank_config into json object, fixes 3000 gems reward in shipwreck
- some compile fixes for minizip
- removed CResourceLoader class in favor of one that implements resource loader interface
- removed global pool of files, in favour of more dynamic approach
- renamed some files to match current situation
All these changes are needed mostly for future mod manager + .zip support
- removed unused functionality from CCreatureAnimation
- simplified postioning of units in battle, should fix remaining issues with unit positioning
- fixed unit tests compilation
- disabled intro menu animation for now - different position in different versions (WoG, SoD)
- removed no longer needed entry for Linux video from filesystem
* creature abilities bonus properties are updated when the creature id is assigned
* removed decrease morale ability from config file (it was duplicating the one from ZCRTRAIT.TXT
- WoG should be optional, all remapped files are listed in WoG/config/wogFileOverrides.json
- fixed several cases of incorrect positioning of creatures in battles
- some missing sounds for battle effects
- negative luck support, disabled by default
- a bit hackish detection of WoG presence, VCMI should work on SoD-only installs
- mods can access only ID's from dependenies, virtual "core" mod and itself (optional for some mods compatibility)
- metadata field for JsonNode, used to track source mod
- moved wog creatures into wog mod
- (linux) convertMP3 option for vcmibuilder for systems where SDL_Mixer can't play mp3's
- loading of all objects (including H3 objects) will be directed by mod handlers
- common base for all handlers accessible from mod system (IHanderBase)
- json format changes: use struct with string ID's instead of vector
- fixed some gcc/clang errors and warnings
- fixed several cases of memory leaks and invalid memory access (mostly related to usage of bonus system and/or identifiers resolution)
Note that right now loading is much slower than before due to excessive json validation (or not fast enough validator)

- disabled most of now unused code for changing resolution
- added missing spell effect sounds
- adventure map spells sounds
- remaining fixes for big endian systems
Now obstacles should be placed exactly like they were in OH3.
All problems with displaying obstacles in battlefield should be gone. They should be now matched to the single pixel.
If there are still some discrepancies, please report them.
