Just wanted to say I'm still here for those not really following along especially as I've not been super obvious on social media by not having announced the recent beta & preview builds from the past few months plus I know a fair number won't have been looking at the forum or vaguely keeping ...

Finally the first build of 2025 which is somewhat late in happening against where I'd been planning to be by now but sometimes better late than never. There's around 100 lines in the changelog since the last #20678 beta build.
The aim is for either this beta build or a small update dependin...
2025-02-28 18:43:05 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the 'fun' of a month ago I've finally got a new beta build up (changelogs for it as normal are at https://getwacup.com/changelog/). This won't be going up as a new preview build since its too close to the holidays now &...
2024-12-21 17:07:34 +0000 UTC View PostLast Thursday my body decided to try to replicate the alien chest burster scene which means I'm posting this quick update from hospital.
Am hoping to get home later this week but coding, etc is on hold for a while until I've recovered.

Last time I'll mention that any build prior to 1.99.20.19994 going back to 1.99.11.18916 will require manually updating to get onto a build that will be able to correctly report there's an update (unless you're "lucky" & are having crashes with those older builds).
Onto today's ...

The crappy bit first, the new version prompt has been broken for all of the 2024 preview builds since April which only came to light around 2 weeks ago for which being annoyed with myself is still an understatement.
Manually updating to the new build is required unless you're one of th...
2024-08-29 13:49:48 +0000 UTC View PostWACUP build 1.99.15.19320 went up last night as a quick fix for an ironic crash from a change meant to avoid crashes (sorry to all for that) & a memory leak.

A few weeks on since build 19100 went up as a preview build & it's now being replaced with build 19312.
This new build primarily brings changes to how the history & local library db files are saved to resolve the unacceptable number of crash reports that the old bui...

WACUP build 1.99.13.19100 just went up as the latest preview build which aims to resolve the main crash issue happening with the prior 1.99.12.18980 preview build. https://getwacup.com/preview/preview_1_99...

The past 3 & a half weeks have been somewhat frantic hence the lack of updates on here with the 3 noted builds along with 2 interim builds that were posted on the beta sub-section of the forum & numerous user specific test builds to finally get to today's releasing of build 18980 as the <...

Another month almost done & as a non chocolatey treat there's finally 2 new beta builds (we won't talk about the one that was pulled) which has been a bit of a bumpy one but has also been a hopefully move in the right direction now I'm looking back at all of the changes that have gone into th...
2024-03-30 14:16:35 +0000 UTC View PostA 3 month update wasn't on the plans but the end of year update went out of the window & then the last 2 months have flown by so I'll try to keep this update fairly brief.

If anyone knows where the 2 weeks I seem to have lost this month have gone then I'd be much appreciative as I've obviously not managed to get a new beta build done this month despite the plan of last month's update so I'm a bit miffed with myself.
Things have been progressing though it's be...

Unfortunately no treats to play with today as October has been a bit of a messy month from having taken one of the two full weeks I typically take off a year & then effectively spending 2 of the remaining 3 weeks just working through the crash reports that have been coming in from the preview...

Beta build 1.9.19.16956 just went up with it also provided as a "beta" preview build before a more formal preview build is done next month (October 2023) to help resolve issues that haven't yet been caught as is likely to arise.
I'm still here & plugging away. Since the last post 4 months ago there's been 10 beta builds, a whole load of interim / dev builds & the replacement local library is now (mostly) loading the expected artwork as of today's build #16242 along with a mass of changes, fixes & a hopefully ...
2023-07-31 22:32:30 +0000 UTC View PostAs some of you may have seen, I posted a screenshot a few days ago on social media showing off an in-progress change related to WACUP's non-legacy mode where modern skins will finally be usable under it. As such we're now into the 1.9.x series of builds :)
Since then I've been improving my ...

Some might've noticed I've been mostly quiet on social media this year (just not feeling things) but I've been diligently working away at things with 5 beta builds since the start of year (1.8.15.14132 through 1.8.21.14638)

You don't see anything for almost 2 months & then 2 betas come along in under a day with 1.8.14.14034 & 1.8.14.14050 (how's that for channelling the old days of Winamp 2.x build releases 😉) trying to get things resolved before the holidays.
Primarily it's just a lot of fixes that...
