What is blocking Adrian Release

Currently we have done many improvements to the old game, but unfortunately unable to release, since the windows Release configuration crashes unexpectedly. The Debug configuration runs perfectly. The Linux version is running very well too. Some thing appears rotten there.

The problem occurs in some list handling in the MD2 model loading code. So we have two options - debug it or use a more professional loader. Basically we have seen a good open source model loader based on the BSD license at http://assimp.sourceforge.net/. This will be hopefully solve the woes. But I guess it pays to debug what the problem is with the existing code too, but not by blocking the release indefinitely. Technical details are tracked in this issue report.

So that is exactly what was blocking the release. I cant wait to populate the downloads section with the first "official" Beta release version of our game!
