Hooray! Almost all the bugs raised on the GitHub have been fixed perfectly in Hive! 0.0.8. Besides, Hive have became a real multithreaded application, which runs fluently even when the disk or the network is slow.
In Hive! 0.0.8, more animation and interactive components are included. You are free to disable or enable them whenever you want. Actually, with Hive's great optimization, you don't need to worry about its performance at all.
Here is the fun part. Hive! 0.0.8 introduces a multithread TCP server which is capable of transfering multiple large files simultaneously, which also brings the new feature - customized avatar (introduced below).
Can't wait? Don't hesitate to download a preview version in the Download Page. Remember, not all the functions are completed yet, and more surprises will come with the formal release!
#File transfer server is still under construction, and it will be available on the preview builds very soon!
#Zooming, scrolling, and whatever you want to make your avatar perfect.
