Update
I'm working on ironing out some kinks in the image transfer code. But it is still progressing :)

Also, on a side note, I've recently been contacted by the folks at PCGen, they would like to open a developer discussion on making it possible to get MT/IT and PCGen to communicate together. Neat :)

PCGen could be some coolness. Looks like they are another Java based open source project.

I would so love to see that sort of thing happen with the Hero System folks. Their character creator, Hero Designer, is completely written in Java and uses XML for all its data and I seriously think it would be a match made in heaven for the Hero gamers out there.
You're just jealous 'cause the voices only talk to me.

but I just wanted to check and make sure a critical flaw is being addressed.

Has anyone corrected the fact that players can see object notes under Fog of War?

It's critical for my play style that this gets fixed.
I tried this:

start GM MT
start client MT
connect up
add a token on the object layer
add player and GM notes to it
turn on fog
on the player client, mouse over and click the spot where the token is (it's hidden in the fog)

I didn't get the notes. Are you using different steps ?
I think he meant soft fog, not hard fog.

Ah, good thinking, I'll try that case

Any hope about Maptool 1.3b57 be released this week? I am sleepless for suspense.

Making 'good' use of my time of summer I am 'building' a (humble) 'Camtasian' tutorial about Maptool for spanish girls and boys.

I have decided to wait to Maptool 1.3b57 (Maptool 1.3b56 was released in April). But the wait is proving to be hard psychologically. Sigh!

Well, it should have been out last week, but a series of RL work related events prevented progress. I'll see what I can do ...

Please make the next build into a release version if it's stable. =(

I second this, take care of real life first, then you'll be able to focus on the extra-curricular stuff like maptools.

Trevor. Thank you for your hopeful answer! I expect that it not imply too many problems for you.
