Like the title says, can we keep up the habit of doing weekly updates again? I’m not sure two posts makes a habit but little victories mount up in the end :)
As the development is a rolling process, you may want to check out last week’s update as a few of this week’s work is a continuation.
As the last weekly blog update covered upto week 44 and then everything went a bit awry, I’m hoping now to get back into doing (hopefully) weekly blog posts again but in a less detailed way than the older posts.
My thinking is that it’s then simpler to get an idea of what’s been going on but without you dear reader needing to take a long break out of your day to do it and for me the couple of hours it was generally taking to end up with my convoluted posts :)
So without any further messing around, lets find out what happened during the week just past…
Hello again, it’s been a while since the last blog post and even longer since the last regular blog post updates. I apologise now for this but I’ve been busier coding which isn’t a valid excuse and I know I need to get back into the habit of doing the weekly(ish) blog updates.
So if you’ve not been following me elsewhere & / or via the changelogs then you may not think much has been going on but you are wrong as there’s been 12 beta builds provided since the start of 2017 (not counting some of the interim builds before the main builds were released to all of the beta testers). I won’t recap all of those changelogs here but suffice to say a lot of work has been going on (not as much as I’d like at times) but things are progressing (unlike any official progress from what was recently indicated).
With everything that has gone on over the last 4 weeks (which I suspect most following things already know about or it can worked out from the title of this update) I can only apologise that the blog didn’t get updated at the same time (it’s all been a bit hectic between WACUP work and un-related personal matters).
With this update I’m not going to cover everything as I’m not sure that’d be too interesting or even if I could do that from the notes I’ve made about things as I’ve gone on. If you just want a quick summary of things over these last few weeks then it’s best to have a look at the beta changelogs for the builds that have been provided so far to the beta testers (and due to some of the issues covered later in this post a build wasn’t released during this week).
As some may have noticed there hasn’t been a blog post update for a few weeks which is all down to me being focused on fixing issues raised by those who’ve been doing beta testing (*) of the first two builds of WACUP over on the Community Forum.
So until blog post updates resume (which may be done in a slightly different style as well as day since I seem to be doing Friday beta build releases), you can follow some of the development, etc that is going on via Twitter, Facebook or on the Community Forum.

(*) You can still sign-up (or suggest to friends you know who might be interested) to help out beta testing by creating a community forum account and following the instructions during account registration.
For those who’ve been following things, you’ll have seen that there’s been a few things going on during the last week as part of the prep work for the coming first WACUP beta. With all of that going on, there’s not been as much coding done as I’d have liked but there’s enough for me to ramble on about it for a while :) So onto what was done…
