Graal v4?

raiden0899 · #1 08-14-2005, 09:29 AM

I was told it was released. If it is, how do I download it? I think i was lied to.

Benm00t · #2 08-14-2005, 05:55 PM

It's only released to selected testers. I heard it may be released (probably to VIPs first) soon however.

Is this a better post Lance?

Zickle · #3 08-22-2005, 07:55 PM

So it should be out soon? Neato! Graal hasn't blown its brains out in a horrible way to kill itself!

Well I heard that, but I don't know how true it is. Soon could mean different things to different people. To someone it may mean a week or 2, but to Stefan it could mean several months.

Who knows!

Go with the latter.

It has been ready for a few days, it just needs a new setup.exe to support it, which too is near completion.

raiden0899 · #7 08-22-2005, 11:32 PM

Oh. Cool. I can't wait to see the global playerlist. Is the playerlist a separate window (Like v2.31) or is it like Graal3? (If it's like Graal3 I think there should be an option to change it.)

Seperate window

Sweetness.

Is it going to be just for VIP for now or what?

It is planned to be VIP only, although that could all change.

ForgottenLegacy · #11 08-23-2005, 07:26 PM

This is what I heard: Graalv4 will be released today (23Aug2005) to VIP members only.

That's all I know. z-z Malinko's the one who told me, and here's the linkey:

I don't think it is enough to make me want to buy a vip account. Many people have had problems with graalv3 and I would not want to pay for a program that might not work on my computer.

I'm pretty sure Graal3 was released before it was finished. Graal4 should have way less bugs than Graal3. Since I'm VIP, I get to see it today (I hope)

It will have WAY more less bugs. There has been so much testing on this version. I don't believe v3 got anywhere near this amount of attention.

Actually, Graal4 was written in the same language as Graal2, and has the same interface. Graal4 is a merge between the technical side of v3 and the visual side of v2, from what I understand, although I've been wrong before.

I'd say Graal4 is definitely worth it. Innumerable bugs from v3 were fixed. It takes 3 posts just to show how much has been fixed:

It's been tested for months by over 50 people. It's very stable.

In addition to all the major bugfixes, the playerlist can go outside of the Graal window again. The playerlist being stuck inside the window was one of the big things that turned tons of people away from v3, and now it's fixed.

Graal4 is faster than Graal2, and maybe even faster than Graal3 (definitely faster when starting up). It looks better, too.

Since the things that turned people away from Graal3 have changed, it opens a ton of new opportunities with the new scripting engine. With Graal4, GS2 scripts can be written clientside (think more complicated GUIs, etc).

Besides all the stuff that's been made better, there are a bunch of major new features that I know people will like

All the testers that I know of use Graal4 as their normal client and have left Graal2 in the dust. I'd say it is definitely worth upgrading. I re-upgraded today, in fact.

Graal4 is a mixture of languages; Delphi and C++. It doesn't have the same

Yup, I was wrong. That's the correct information, straight from Chee.

I think I've seen that somewhere else on the forums. Does anyone have a screenshot of Graal4? I'm dying to see it.

Also, if it's 9:30 PM here, what time is it where Stefan is?

Uh... Germany is... +1? So... ((abs(-7) + 1) + 9.5) % 12 = ... Uhm... 05:30.

It's 5:30 AM where Stefan is, currently. Feel free to correct me on my math. z-z Germany is +1, right?

So It actually comes out here on the 24th? That sucks

Possibly +2, but i'm not sure either.

My understanding: On 23 August, they tested the setup.exe for Graal v4. However, there was a big with the setup executible, but it was late at night where Stefan lives, so Stefan decided to push off the final coding and release of the exe to the next day.

On another note, anyone else angry at Malinko for spreading false information on the release of Graal v4?

I said to some staff that the version might be released on the next. We have taken more time to fix the problems though, and we are also preparing news postings for this. If everything goes fine we will release tomorrow, Thirsday, to VIP.

There's no reason to be mad at Malinko. That was an estimated release date. It'll be out soon. We can wait another day or two.

Will players only be able to use v2 and v4 once v4 is released?

HoudiniMan · #37 08-25-2005, 12:36 PM

I'm willing to bet that once v4 is released to everybody that only v4 will work at all.

Also, it updates itself so any incompatibilities or glitches can be fixed quickly and completely. I haven't used any other version for 2 months.

My guess is around sometime in September. The amount of bugs found and fixed in v4 is enormous, so i'm pretty sure everything should almost be working 100% by now. I could be wrong.

On some playerworlds they'll require you to download the newest version once it's released, in which this case would be v4. Although, i don't see why you would want to still use v2 though.
