Title: No more out of sync for Annex! MegaGlest found the bug!
Post by: titi on 25 May 2013, 21:09:32

We lately had trouble with the Prax mod and we always saw an out of sync wehn playing crossplatform using it.
Now we found out why ( especially softcoder ) . The reason were floating point rounding differences in linux/windows.

All should be fixed now for annex too! At least we see no more out of syncs in prax mod and we played a great 38 minute annex game without getting any trouble ( windows/linux too )!
And in svn are no more issues for windows64 users too.

the svn revision we used was 4313.

WARNING! This is not compatible with latest annex release! Put it side by side as a full installation of itself .
