- macOS: RPATH-related code all removed or disabled
- macOS: new osx/CMakeLists.txt to run some install-code running after all subdirectories
- Assets copying into the runtime output directory implemented for Mac and Linux development
- Most of outdated CMakeLists code removed.
- All Mac-specific code is removed include Sparkle support and vcmibuilder app.
- DMG buidling reimplemented using macdeployqt command.
- Use EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL for FuzzyLite and GoogleTest to avoid inclusion of unneded headers and libraries into installers.
- Set minimum CMake version only in main CMakeLists.txt
- Set project name only in main CMakeLists.txt
- Visual Studio: add assign_source_group function to generate proper filesystem tree
- Visual Studio: set PROJECT_LABEL so generated projects have same names binaries on Windows
- Visual Studio: enabled USE_FOLDERS for projects grouping. This also possibly affect other IDEs.
- Added add_subdirectory_with_folder function to make sure 3rd-party libraries are affected by USE_FOLDERS.
* AI libs registering shenanigans on android;

Enabled threaded init in CMT;
* Prevented a deadlock in logger on some devices;
* Fixed frozen intro frame after interrupting the video;
Added android progressbar displaying during initial data loading;
* Hacky fix for choppy animations during heroes movement (should look better now, but it's definitely not a good solution);
* Changes/fixes for new android launcher building process;
* Fixed app hang after getting SDL_QUIT when activity was destroyed;
* Functioanal, configurable advmap swiping support;
* VCMI changes cleanup;
Added few missing VCMI_ANDROID guards on swipe mechanics;
* Removed unneeded sleep in server startup code for android;
* Removed android ioapi hack (fixed in newest ndk);
* Removed unused android's library loading logic;
* Added android's swipe option to settings schema;

- Implemented Bank Constructor object.
- Merged Pyramid object into common Bank class. Banks can now grant
spells as part of their reward.
- Move bank config code to config/objects/creatureBanks.json. Note: WoG
banks are not updated yet, should be moved to WoG mod.
- Updated AI code so it can correctly evaluate bank danger (should be
generic enough for use with other objects)
- New files JsonRandom.* that contain routines for loading random
objects from Json (still WiP but should be stable)
- moved SoundBase.h to lib since it contains shared data
- added RMG info to object format. Note that data is not yet imported in
configs
- slightly updated API of object handlers
- This file is now split into multiple smaller files in mapObjects
directory
- CObjectHandler itself now contains only core classes (Handler itself,
CGObject and interfaces)
- Cleaned up excessive #include's through whole project
- New files: lib/CObjectWithReward.h/cpp
- Classes that will be replaced by configurable object are now in this
fil
Status: far from functional, currently at "it compiles" point, some
essential pieces are still missing.
- fixed bug when loading victory/loss conditions of the 3rd scenario in the first ROE campaign
- fixed bug when loading artifacts to hero of the 3rd scenario in the first ROE campaign (due to corrupt H3M map)
- implemented function object to quickly find a object by it's sub ID in a list
- added netbackbase.h to header list in CMake
- removed false message which said that the server loaded the map successfully
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
- buiding/structure lists must use object format. This may break some
outdated mods.
- generic support for logical expressions that consist from and/or/not
operators.
- string ID's for buidings are now actually used.
- reorganized internal filesystem structure - all files from one mod are
now grouped in same FS node
- modhandler will now calculate crc32 checksum for each mod
- modhandler now knows validation status of each mod
todo - use checksum to determine mods that have not changed since last
start and disable validation for them.
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.
- 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
- 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.
- Re-organized CMapGenerator
- Created CZone and CTemplate objects in the heap and used pointers
- Added stub classes CZoneGraphGenerator and CZonePlacer (include warnings of unused variables, please ignore them)
- Fixed CRandomGenerator bug that always the same number was produced
- Better structure of Visual Studio project files with using filters
- Updated project files (VS, CMake)
- Excluded compiler warning mismatched-tags (false positive)
- Fixed a bug when compiling with unit tests enabled
- minizip library is now part of sources, located at lib/minizip
- cmakefiles will compile minizip as dynamic library (Note: only 2 files used by vcmi are included in minizip.so)
- zip files can be loaded similar to other archives via filesystem.json
- mods can use Content.zip instead of Content/ directory. Files in directory will replace files in archive.
- 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
- 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
- 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)
