STATUS REPORT 1/M1


Subject: STATUS REPORT 1/M1
From: Tommi Leino (namhas@majik.netti.fi)
Date: Wed Jun 02 1999 - 15:19:34 EEST


DEVELOPMENT (20% done, 37% assigned, 63% unassigned)
  Yorkatur did initial rc-file parsing system. Harum did nothing, except
  a little bit ad-stuff. I did PNG-reader for the client and few misc
  script tuning etc. The source code of the client is released and a
Win32
  port of it should arrive quite soon. Cutter (outsider) fixed one bug
  concerning resize in a window.

DESIGN (10% done, 22% assigned, 78% unassigned)
  McDuff accepted as a new graphic designer and did 3D models of
humanoid
  and mammal bodytypes for example purposes (I will send a summary about
  it later). Glabrezu did "World of names", ripoffed quite directly from
  AD&D DMG, without telling us the reference. Jormap said that he did a
  little bit more Trolls. Belemar took "The Regions of Majik in short"
  and apparently put Majik T-shirts project to background.

Milestone Deadline   Features
M1        01-07-1999 CLIENT: + code made ready for open source
                             - initial object system using a real
                               object-class instead of series of kludges
                             - dummy player object
                             - initial movement system using which the
                               user can move the dummy player object,
                               see from its eyes or from semi-isometric
                               perspective. Movement system should look
                               for collisions and follow the landscape
                             - must be able compile for both Win32 and Linux,
                               without needing any additional libraries that
                               we used only because of a kludge
                             - solid installation base, the client should
                               move all images etc. to directory where they
                               belong and the format for data etc. files
                               should be decided
                             + rc-file parsing system
                             + scripts for building automatic daily snapshots
                               of both cvs source code and pre-compiled
                               binaries
