Change Release Notes
- Happy New Year
- Audio Buffer Enhancement for quicker audio play and response
- Camera video performance decreased lag time by a 50 milliseconds in every second will increase framerate
- Biggest performance boost yet. The last few performance increases have been a result of experimenting with Microsoft's TPL to handle the many many threadable controls and background functions in ARC and EZ-B.DLL. While the TPL has provided performance improvements, I have recognized significant overhead in Microsoft's Task Factory which handles thread pooling and resource allocation. Since EZ-Robot is responsible and aware of our resources, i decided to write my own TPL task factory equivalent and replace Microsoft's library. This has provided the biggest performance increase that ARC has ever seen for EZ-Script, Audio, Video Tracking and general UI responsiveness. I call it the EZTaskScheduler, which is technically a factory, scheduler and thread handler all in one. I'm quite pleased with the result, and i'm certain you will be too.
- Added new EZ-Script examples in the examples folder that installs with ARC. One that is relevant to this release is the Procedural 4 (Threading) example.

I have uninstalled this release and re-installed the previous one and everything works OK. After re-installing this release, I have the some problems.
Is anyone else experiencing any problems?
As for scripts skipping lines - that's quite improbable. Can you explain further on that subject? It's pretty much impossible for that to happen, specifically since the complied hasn't been touched in many many months.
