For your serious attitude and disclipline with bug fixing! Its been my only bone of contention and I'm pleased with the current round of fixes. Thank you!
Thanks BRL

Looks like you've really been putting in the effort recently! If only we could nudge you towards the B3D bugs for 5 minutes, theres a guy with a mouse problem :P
All's going well though, Max hasn't thrown a fit at me for a few days now which is actually rare!

Yep! Definately a round of applause to Blitz Research. :)
Don't think I've seen them go nuts on Bug fixing like this before.

Cygnus - :P
I think it isn't a joke, its just a nice refreshing attitude and reminds me of the seriousness mark used to tackle bugs with. Way back when, Blitz used to be the most bug free, stable language around. Looks like it is due to regain that crown.

Agreed - it's good to see. Thanks, guys!

Three cheers!
Well I'm pretty happy now as I don't use the GUI stuff, so I can just get on with the game now :-)
Still think the StopChannel code or documentation should be altered though ...

I had to sync mods three times in one day!!!!
And most of these bugs I wouldn't even have noticed. Good Work.

Wow! I haven't used Max for ages and after this thread I went to the BlitzMax bug section and it's almost empty!
What about sound? Is that working ok these days? There used to be either crackling or lag.

the main sound problem in 98 got resolved but there is still a minor lag I believe.
For us non Max owners, anyone able to post a version-doc to see what was fixed?

Wow, nice stuff.
Good to see the flip-thing was fixed too, read alot about that one. Will be nice knowing that BMax should provide me no problems when I purchase it around Max3D season.
(aside from possible Max3D Module bugs)
That list for 1.20 is *old*. We are discussing the *new* bug fixes that have been made really recently that you can get with syncmods. The next version will be a really significant leap forward in terms of fixes imho.
