(+) Points required until next rank added to ranking screen.
(+) New storyboard transformation type 'V' - vector scale. Works like M but accepts width and height parameters for scaling a sprite, rather than movement.
(*) Full level play optimisations are in. Approximately 18x speed boost.
(*) Fixed bug with parameter type storyboarding events.
(*) Fixed avatar not updating when changing active user.
(*) Fixed chat not closing correctly if it was open when logging off.
(*) Sliders no longer save their first point in the .osu file. Slight optimisation.
(*) Moving sliders in editor (non-point editing) is around 95% faster.
(*) Fixed tabs on chat window disappearing when swapping skins.
(*) osu! only allows one instance running at all times.

(*) Added now playing messages back in, but triggered by user command '/np'.
(*) Mouse velocity should be a lot smoother - allows for decimal measuresments. (revoked for public)
(*) Changed order of hitcircle/slider explosions - not sure why they were being ordered opposite.
(*) Fixed dragging starting before mouse cursor is moved after clicking.
(*) Fixed slider issues (copy/paste sprite clones).
(*) Fixed sound of spinner bonus not being affected by per-beatmap sample volume.

(+) osu! offline installer is complete and available for testing. Automatically handles .NET prerequisites.
(+) Added checkboxes for online privacy options (not yet implemented).
(+) Added millisecond and x/y coordinate display in design mode. Handy for scripting.
(*) Slider recalculations are reduced in editor.
(*) Fixed bug with high spinner tick rates displaying incorrectly in design view or after changing timing settings.
(*) Fixed bug where slider ticks sometimes briefly appear (for one frame) as they are fading out.
(*) Fixed skipping possible with spacebar even when skip doesn't do anything.
(*) Fixed universal offset setting audible even when osu! is not focussed.
(*) Fixed exporting online replays to a file (didn't work before).
(*) Changed storyboarding so katsu combos trigger the failing sequence.
(*) Hopefully fixed user screen sometimes leaving users misaligned.

osu! offline installer available for testing.

Gave the installer a quick test drive. Works quite nicely~

Only thing I noticed was for multiple installs: I have an osu! shortcut on my desktop, and the installer overwrote it. So when I decided that I do not want osu! installed on my machine any more :(, it deleted my shortcut ;_________;

Fortunately this means absolutely nothing because what the fuck are you doing with two installs on your machine??? (Actually I can think of a plethora of reasons - well, at least two reasons - but for 98% of the people out there this is a non-issue that will never happen).

So, good work. I had no problems.

(+) Added support for .osb external difficulty-independant storyboards.
(+) Added option to make storyboard layers 1-3 draw in front of combo fire (StoryFireInFront:0 under [General] in .osu file).
(*) Login dialog handles connection errors better (and allows cancelling at all times).
(*) Extended chat should be less broken with transitions (please report if there are still problems with separation of sprites).
(*) Optimisation to hitcircle handling internally.
(*) Fixed some unnecessary saving in editor when both a background image and video are included in a map.
(*) Accuracy on extended chat is always 2DP.
(*) Game fades out slower when exiting.

If you're wondering about the lack of updates this weekend, its mostly because I was in bed recovering from a pretty bad case of flu. Hopefully I can make back some time this week.

(+) No-video links are added by bss.
(+) Can seek to a time in the editor by clicking the time display. Accepts full formatting [00:01:55 (0,1,2,3)].

(*) Clicks during audio lead-in are handled correctly.
(*) Turned off sorting of storyboard events on editor save. Let's see how this behaves!

(*) Fixed a few minor bugs.

http://osu.ppy.sh/?v=mariomedley.flv for a preview of the new feature.

Yes it will be disable-able soon. So don't sstart complaining.

(+) Basic multiplayer implementation.
(*) Scoreboard has cooler effects.
(*) Fixed crash with timing panel popup when deleting existing points.

Yes we had a few multiplayer matches. It is indeed fun, but still a bit buggy and rough on the edges. Nevertheless!

Just a quick request to those who spend the time to read this page: I'm going to aim to get a public release out by Sunday. I'm not sure if this will happen, but it is a good aim...

This would include the basic multiplayer mode in theory.

Anyways that is totally irrelevant, what I wanted to say was: I'd like to freshen up the main menu / editor tips, so please if you have any to add, resurrect the appropriate thread in the general forum with your suggestions.

Also if anyone wants to design a single editor help overlay to replace my crappy one currently in the editor, that would be great too. (this is what you see when you hit 'H').

(+) BSS progress bar actually shows upload progress.
(+) Added skinnable element: fail-background.png 640x480 aligned from (0,0) topleft. Displays on fail screen above the black background, below the buttons.
(+) scorebar-colour can be animated (scorebar-colour-0, scorebar-colour-1 etc.). Will play frames over 1 second for a full cycle.
(*) New HTTP implementation. This should hopefully solve problems with logging in/uploading maps for those few people out there!
(*) osume uses new http code. Should no longer crash randomly.
(*) BSS will not accept uploads with non-ascii range characters in their metadata.
(*) BSS allows aborting of file upload (when clicking cancel). Before, the file would continue to upload in the background.
(*) Fixed crash when hitting tab during a level with no scoreboard.
(*) Changes to song selection rotation physics. Hold left mouse button to drag, hold right mouse button to fly
(*) Song list scrolls when mouse is near top or bottom.

I got distracted today, but in a good way. Take a look at the changes above!
Anyways, this does mean that multiplayer will definitely not be ready for this public release. It doesn't mean there won't be a public release tomorrow, but it does mean multiplayer will be disabled for the time being. I'm guessing one more week should mean we have a very stable system in place.

Implementing multiplayer to OSU! is a very daunting task.
So take as much time as you can, implementing multiplayer, Peppy. ;)

(+) Added applause sound for default skin (this will be improved in the future).
(+) Added combofail sound for default skin.
(+) Added "unranked only" filter. Any suggestions on where to put these checkboxes? They feel like they are floating in the middle of nowhere.
(+) Added skin.ini variable "SpinnerNoBlink". Defaults to 0. When set to 1, it will stop spinners from "blinking" the top of the metre as they rise/peak.
(+) Added single-display help popup system.
(+) "failsound.wav/mp3" is now skinnable.
(+) osu! attempts to solve the scenario where a users *extracts* the contents of an osz file (usually IE users) to the songs directory (without encapsulating it in a subdirectory). It will also warn the user.
(+) Bancho user sort mode is remembered between startups.
(*) Skinnable sounds now load with a .wav OR .mp3 extension. Please use wav files for hit sounds or anything that loops.
(*) Selected song on song select is bold.
(*) fail-background is correct resolution.
(*) Fixed Alt/F10 freezing the osu! window in some cases.
(*) Song list can be dragged during keyboard selection.
(*) Importing beatmaps while in edit mode selects them as expected.
(*) Applause sound stops when exiting ranking screen.
(*) Audio samples are cached at song load rather than when the sampleset changes. Should fix freezes in some songs which use custom samples.

(*) Fixed 'Force tablet initialization' not actually having any effect.
(*) Fixed 'Unranked maps' filter not remembering its toggle state.

(+) Added lighting flood when spinner hits bonus levels (Shader effect).
(+) Added blur when HP hits dangerous levels (Shader effect).
(+) Added lighting burst with star bursts (Shader effect).
(+) Added skin.ini variable "AnimationFramerate". Defaults to playing all available frames per second. Applies to all animated sprites except slider ball.
(+) osu! will give the option to force-kill other copies of osu! if it detects there is another copy running. Useful for hanging processes.
(+) Added multichannel support for external IRC clients (yay!) (Echo)
(*) Local scores for beatmaps which have been deleted will be removed from the database.
(*) Fixed bug where osu! may crash when saving a score.
(*) Reduced softening filter by 25%.
(*) Increased leniance with audio drift checking. Seems to be a lot of false positives currently.
(*) Fixed songs being selected through the osu! button on song select.
(*) Hitting escape to return to previous menu from options makes a sound as expected.
(*) Clicking songs on song select is easier (larger radius allowance, less restrictions in general).
(*) Taiko mode is MARKED AS UNRANKED. A lot of people asked this question...
(*) Fixed pause status being set incorrectly.
(*) Scoreboard names are cut off with an ellipsis when they are too long to fit.
(*) Fixed minimising osu! window over a long period of time causing unresponsiveness on restore.
(*) Fixed minimising osu! window causing random crashes.

(*) Fixed editor saving .osb contents to .osu files.
(*) Fixed bug where video event lines are removed by the editor.
(*) Mouse wheel can have focus in editor/song selection even when F8 chat is visible.
(*) Multiplayer song selection can be changed.
(*) Chat window is hidden when a popup dialog is activated.
(*) Entering lobby doesn't screw with mousewheel focus.
(*) General lobby/multiplayer improvements.

Multiplayer is really getting there. But there are still many many cases to handle (realtime client server stuff really isn't simple even if you want it to be). And the ranking screen hasn't got MP support yet.

Still, I am confident I can have a public release up by Monday night (AU time). So look forward to it.

Whoa! Did you make those graphics? And does the background change color at all? (Not that I don't like the color, I do, but it seems like the kind of thing that would scroll through a bunch of hues.)

Yeah, I think I came when I saw it.

You can think of that sentence in two different ways.

I can't take credit for the creation of the actual globe graphic (only the composition of the two), but it is royalty free if that counts. It is actually very similar to the vista networking icon.

@TiZ: no the colours don't change

(*) Fixed channel logs not properly clearing when swapping to an empty channel.
(*) Fixed receiving new files at song select.
(*) Fixed storyboarded sounds not playing in intro/outro.
(*) Reduced magnitude of blurring in game transitions (shader effect).

Congratulations to me, I made it "on time". This release might just be the most stable osu! release to date (while bancho is still a bit dodgy until it swaps over to the new server), so make sure you update and enjoy it to the full extent. I do suggest you read over the full changelog here

Nah shinn, DDoS aren't avoidable. As I said, it was most probably a random attack and should not need any follow-up action. I can't do anything to protect the server more than it already is - a separate firewall is probably the best option, and the cost of this far exceeds my budget.

Change your old PC into a firewall

Also a refurbished PC would be fine :)

(!) No new development (see signature).
When did you start the coding strike? The reason why I ask is because you mentioned the following in the 'RPM counters for spinners' thread this morning.
