UPDATE : our new devblog is at http://iris.schattenkind.net/blog/

i just don't like the wiki as blog anymore *g*

* 2d mode : maploader improved, there shouldn't be black areas when moving around or resizing the window anymore, before it just loaded a (rather small) circle around the player, now it calculates the visisible area on screen.
* win directx crash : when iris detects a crash during render-system-startup, it now asks the user if he wants to use opengl instead at next start. i hope this catches the recent problem, but hasn't been tested under win yet. it won't help if the segfault occurs later, only when it happens during rendersystem startup (OgreInit).

Currently working on new granny loader, to solve the problem with some anims.
The trusty worker beetle especially, it seems to use a different, lowpoly mesh for walk anims, that we somehow have to translate to the full mesh.

Would that also be the cause of the ever popular Mongbat Wing Of Doom?

the old current grannyloader already supports scaling :
Code:
lib.bodygfx.lua : MakeBodyPartGfx :  ...   
        local myscalex = forcescalex or modelinfo.scalex * gGrannyScaleFactor
        local myscaley = forcescaley or modelinfo.scaley * gGrannyScaleFactor
        local myscalez = forcescalez or modelinfo.scalez * gGrannyScaleFactor
        if (myscalex ~= 1 or myscaley ~= 1 or myscalez ~= 1) then
            partgfx:SetScale(myscalex,myscaley,myscalez)
            partgfx:SetNormaliseNormals(true)
        end

but the scalefactor is only loaded from the model-info files in the uo/Models/ dir so far.
So i just added a filter option to trunk/unstable, to allow overriding this :
in the file lua/filter/filter.granny.lua , for custom scaling use gGrannyFilter[400] ={scale={x=2,y=2,z=2}}
please test =)
