The lack of a ChangeLog file
« on: March 25, 2005, 03:32:37 PM »
I would really like op2hacker or LeV to write down every single change they make to each version of Op2.

For the sake of transparency, maintain a "changelog.txt" with dates so we can keep track down any changes made to the game over time. No matter how light the change might be, it is relevant.

Since I don't see any changelog in the op2 package, I urge you to adopt this methodology, so anyone can know exactly what is changing in the game, and obviously what has changed since the last release from Sierra.

That would be a good idea to do, just so people know what's happened in the updates.

I think we'll do it next update :)

and also include what has been changed before the next update, I hope.

Good idea!

Exactly like TH300 said.

I'd like also that you exercice your memory and write down what you know that has changed since you modified the first time the data from Outpost 2 CD-ROM.

I think I actually do have some textfile somewhere, that details the changes made to the code (including the addresses and bytes that are changed).

I should be able to remember all the updates though regardless of that.
