1-18-94 - Version 1.0 released! ------- - Added some color to get rid of that real dull feel. :) - Credit Fix will now automatically backup the USERS.DAT file to USERS.CRF in case of any problems. - Added counting feature to count the number of users processed, the number of negative accounts fixed, and the number of accounts updated. - Added new display which shows the processing of the program. It shows the beginning and end of the backup process of USERS.DAT, shows the beginning and end of file processing. - Added display feature which updates the values for the users processed, negative values fixed, and number of user records changed as it processes it thus showing exactly what is going on and giving you some info on what was updated and changed. - A ton of code optimization for speed and compact file size. - Credit Fix must now be run from you main Renegade directory. - New usages for Credit Fix: /all ---- The way Credit Fix v1.0 worked. It will search through the user records and adjust the credits and debits. If it finds an account with a negative balance, it will zero out both the credits and debits. /debits ------- This option will still search through and fix all the credits and debits so that the credits reflect the actual amount of points available - but, when it comes to an account with a negative balance, it will only zero out the debits, leaving the credits intact. 2-2-94 - Version 1.1 released! ------ - Major code improvements for speed and a very compact size. 3-30-94 - Version 1.2 released! ------- - Fixed a bug where credit fix wouldn't update the values if there was a negative ammount of credits, and ZERO debits. This was overlooked previously. Whoops! Sorry about that. Credit Fix will now correct this as a negative balance as it should. - More massive code overhauling. - Changed command line options. The only command line options are now /B or -B to create a backup of the USERS.DAT. The program will not make a backup unless you pass it this parameter. By typing /? you will now see a sceen with the usage and the parameters. Not much now, but I hope to add a lot more to it in the future. - Credit Fix will now zero out all negative balances if there are more credits than debits or a negative credit balance. - Added a newer display for during processing and showing how many records were processed, negative accounts fixed, and total changes made. 6-22-94 - Version 2.0 released! ------- - Minor display bugs fixed. 6-26-94 - Version 2.1 released! ------- - Updated the Renegade data file structures used. - Speed improvements made to the procedure backing up your USERS.DAT file. - This program is now released as part of DiMM - Developers in Mass-Media.

The config file structure is as follows: Line 1: Path to RENEGADE.DAT file (Main RG Directory) with no backslash Line 2: Back up USERS.DAT file (0 = no, 1 = yes) Line 3: Filename for USERS.DAT backup file Line 4: Zero out negative accounts (0 = no, 1 = yes) - Big changes to the display of what's going on. a.

When complete Credit Fix will show you the total # of accounts changed and the total number of NEGATIVE accounts changed. 6-10-96 - Version 3.0 released! -------
