XBOX-HQ.COM - LinksBoks 0.99

This release features a major architecture change, the browser itself is now packaged as a library (the "engine"); the actual app as you know it is simply the first and only "host" application of this library (exluding the "Embedded Sample" included in the source package). Apart from these "behind the scenes" change, no major visual changes (sorry) for end users after this long idle period, but anyways, here's the list, splitted into 2 groups to reflect the now separated entities, the "engine" and the "host" application:

ENGINE:
- Rewrote the async DNS lookup system (no useless threads).
- Fixed a small bug in the graphics driver which happens not so often but leads to a crash.
- Fixed some of the display glitches (thin non-redrawed lines) during scrolling.
- Slowed down the "normal" scrolling speed.
- Increased default text size in pages to 18. Can be changed in the Options.
- Restored the original, generic menu options.
- Included a patch by Vedran Ljubovic from links-list mailing list which fixes minor bugs that prevented logging into Hotmail (but you can't do much in it because it's full of unsupported Javascript).

APPLICATION:

- You now can specify your network settings (either static or DHCP) in the Options Manager instead of relying on the dashboard (SEE NOTES BELOW).
- Basic Flash (.swf files) player with interaction (SEE NOTES BELOW).
- Slightly more useful help system (Help>About) with a brand new "Network Status and Troubleshoot" page to help fixing connection issues.
- Improved Keyboard/mouse support.
- New option: deadzone for gamepad thumbsticks. Adjust if you have drifting mouse pointer problems.
- Because of the now lacking menu entry, Video calibration can be accessed at any time with the BACK button (text entry mode now only available with a left thumbstick "click").
