IntelliJ 12 has been released :-)

Edit: We've got the freebie open source license for the Ultimate edition now. Convo me for the code (keep it secret, keep it safe) if you've acquired a topic specific Contributor badge

I'll be applying for a freebie open source Ultimate license because why not (benefits to us are limited, but hey). Was waiting for 12 to get released to do so, going to start playing with it soon

Works alright so far, was able to take a fresh Terasology and run straight after "gradlew idea" without having to do a Make Project - mods would even work when enabled, although the code bits wouldn't work (but not crash either) - almost odd

A single Make Project then made everything work as expected.

I could almost swear it feels like the game runs better, but that must be wishful thinking. And a lucky start, as on increasing the view range I suddenly realized I was running with 256m max heap, had to manually add -Xms512m -Xmx1024m to the run config

After that I found a huge lava-fall and started lagging like mad, checking the metrics I saw I had replicated the"ChunkWaterIce" issue with its counter being the majority of processing:



That was with everything default (so minimum) except having bumped up the view range once or twice.

Ultimate license request submitted

Yeah, the version overview looks great... have to try it out this night
Will the free Open Source Ultimate License available for all contributors or do I have to apply for myself?

I believe I get a "site" license of some sort I can hand out somehow. Stay tuned

The changelog reads nice
I think this license would be available for all of us

The software can be installed on any number of computers and used by any number of concurrent open source project members

Okay, I've got the Ultimate license setup now

There is a ridiculous amount of plugins and stuff bundled that you can enable on first run. While a ton of it is focused around web apps and won't be useful to us, there is more that sounds relevant than I thought there was going to be.

Immortius - want to give some of the more interesting options a more thorough look and advise us for what we might want to enable? I see several that sound neat, but you're more familiar with that sort of topic. For instance there's a "Bean Validation" thing that uses annotation for parameter range validation, but I don't know if that's specific to some other framework's nature (like Spring)

There is also something that's supposed to be able to import and export projects to/from Eclipse and even keep workspaces synchronized between IntelliJ and Eclipse. And a way to hook up IM stuff inside IntelliJ so you can send around easy hooks (links I guess) to exact spots in code. Figuring that's a Jabber thing.

To get the info send me a convo here on the forum - I'm thinking we'll limit it to contributors who have earned topic specific badges, which isn't too hard to get, leaves a tiny bit of a carrot effect

License is unlimited, lasts a year.
