  1. Just thought I'd put it out there. Linux is now my day job, and I maintained my own Angband variant for a while, so I can sorta kinda do C. Oh, and I have a Github account. I'd be interested in helping out with the cross-platform version. Caveat: I'm really really busy most of the time. But I would be quite willing to pitch on in weekends, especially if it might teach me a thing or two more about C++/WxWidgets/etc. Anyway, if there's anything that needs working on in the Wx editor, please mention; I will probably want to start small (don't know much about the more advanced C++ stuff) but hopefully will be able to help matters. Thanks for keeping the game alive!
  2. I figure it's been a long enough break, and things appear to have calmed down a bit. So yeah. Here I am again... Now to vanish for another few months. (J/K. You'll be able to find me in the BoE subforum from time to time. Probably not much elsewhere; I don't have much time for non-programmable games any more.)
  3. I believe the System process is the Windows kernel. In my experience it is not unusual for it (and other OS kernels) to eat up a significant amount of memory, even when the system performs normally. I'm not sure how you could get it to use 0.1 MB, unless you embarked on some massive purging of filesystem caches or something. I can't say exactly what happened here (not enough of a Windows geek). However, looking at your Process Explorer log, I see stuff that probably shouldn't be there: sqlwriter.exe 1,420 K 4,504 K 1844 SQL Server VSS Writer - 64 Bit Microsoft Corporation aspnet_state.exe 1,332 K 4,104 K 3696 Microsoft ASP.NET State Server Microsoft Corporation >>> I'm not that familiar with Windows 8, but these are the sort of things one would normally see on a server, not a desktop. Serving up web content from a desktop is a security hazard. If this is for a class and/or experimentation you might want to use a virtual machine, otherwise you should probably serve the content from a dedicated computer. AVG-Secure-Search-Update_0414c.exe 1,584 K 452 K 3584 >>> This looks like part of AVG, not sure what it's doing on a system without. I'd also recommend uninstalling the browser toolbars.
