|
| | Viper's Graal Issues. |
|
| |
|
| corrected problems with adapting level
| | Hello everyone, as of late, many people have been attacking me on the issues and matters, trying to lie about things, bend the truth, and downright spin to make me and others of my cause look bad, in this text document i will discuss and lay to rest the issues that matter. |
| heights on 3d terrain
| |
|
| |
|
| removed the default map-view animation on
| | I have been involved graal for over three years now, and i used to really like Graal and its admins alot, then slowly after about a year Graal and its admins went in a bad downward spiral, i still stuck with graal in hopes graal would pull itself out of this hole and unixmad would go back to the right path, this however did not happen, instead unixmad and even stefan went fouler and lower than i could have imageined, First with fireing Pachuka and Fuitad, two of the BEST graal admins ever in my view for no other reason than disagreeing with his future plans, then if just fireing them was not bad enough, he threatend to sue them and kill they're families, this was so wrong and bad Fuitad even said he would punch unixmad in the face for saying that if he met him in real life, but that was just the beginning of the downward spiral unixmad foolishly invoked onto graal, he then blatantly STOLE a domain name graal.net from Owl Shimy which costed over 30$ US Dollars, and never gave it back to him and never paid him for the cost of the domain, he also threatend to sue Owl Shimy and kill his family although it was Unixmad which stole the domain from Owl Shimy, then around Graal1.3.1 he blocked off Gservers officially and threatend to sue anyone that ran the former Gservers, although they were released as "Freeware" and actually used to encourage people to use the Gservers, this was a blatant attempt to monopolise , threaten, and intemidate that players that actually helped graal and supported him, he then made claims he copyrighted "Graal" and would contact so called "Lawres" about anyone that used the name "Graal" or had "Graal Files" on there websites, although graal was distributed as "Freeware" or "Shareware" and had no official software copyrights related to it, and that the name "Graal" was actually the name of a holy sacred golden cup used in some religion, and in that he has commited blasphemy against whatever religion has the so called "Holy Graal", then later on Unixmad fired SuperNick, because of his country and his origion and called him an American Asian slut, this was the first sign of racism on the part of Unixmad, towards Graal1.4.1 Unixmad was secretly unwrapping his sadistic plans, he then started claiming credit and claiming to own the copyrights to graal, although unixmad has done nothing but host some stupid weak as servers, and yet Stefan Knorr has done all the real work for Graal, and was the one to make ZeldaOnline , GraalOnline in the first place and has written every bit of codeing for the Graal Client , Gserver, RC, ect, yet unixmad the worthless pile of trash that he is steals all credit for Graal, then in February 2001, Unixmad and Antago release Graal2001 and the start of the "Pay to Play" system, now i have no problem with the fact that it is pay to play, the issue is when you PAY for something you actually expect to get the worth while of your money in this product, but instead they got a shittily made level generated land that was 99% empty, the NPCs were and are laggy as hell, and there were no quests, and there is only two shitty things today for hearts that suck so much i refuse to even call them quests, and to add to that about 40% of everyone that paid and gave unixmad there credit card number NEVER got the accounts they paid 27$ or more for, and those that did clearly got chumped out by a cheap peice of crap that aint worth paying for, it sucked so badly that most people played on Graal Classic still, even those that foolishly paid for pay to play accounts, and in an attempt to "FORCE" people to pay for a shitty product they do not want against they're will Unixmad hired "Tyhm" to deface and ruin GraalClassic in an attempt to make it buggier and less fun than even Graal2001, about this time i was disgusted with unixmad and most of the other admins and decided to downright turn against Graal and for the most part stop playing the peice of crap in general. People starting getting angry, complaining, asking for help, and asking for refunds, of coarse unixmad gave noone a cash refund, and simply deleted and banned "PAID ACCOUNTS" of those who complained, asked for help, or asked for a refund these are PAYING CUSTOMERS, they have the rights of basic service that they PAID for, unixmad promises pay to play players a quality product and customer service, but instead gives them a grade F product and ripps off his customers and delete they're accounts that they PAID HIM money for, his excuse? Credit card fraud, when infact at least 90% of the people he bans for credit card fraud pay legitamately with there OWN credit cards or pay via paypal by check, and yet Unixmad has stolen and used others credit card numbers to buy things for himself on several occassions, he also claims he needs pay to play money to keep graal alive and running, yet there has been evidence that he makes at least 90% profit out of the monies he gets, and that he uses illegal porn ad banners and illegal cookie style web tracking and giveing email adresses of the players and even phone numbers of every player to spam and telemarketting companies without there permission, he even keeps personal player info, includeing email, adress, and phone number on unsecure servers which have already been leaked out, such info about people should not be on a public webserver accessable to the internet in anyway, then after all that Unixmad starts banning african american people, asians, koreans, and or people with images of people of that race from the Graal2001 forums and graal itself, yet again they are paying customers and this is another sickening act of racism on the part of Unixmad and GraalOnline, and then even more disgusting is what Stefan posts on the Graal2001 forums, he makes several anti american, racist, pro terrorist, pro nazi, and pro taliban comments on that post and goes on and on several pages bashing americans, this post was offense, obcene, and disgusting to many people includeing myself . If all that does not make you sick to your stomache or dislike unixmad yet, i am far from done, then Unixmad proceeds to illegally DDOS webservers of mafukie and make threats to him over the phone, and has phone assaulted me over 40 times a day between midnight and 5am, and has made threats to sue dozens of people, kill there families, and shut down innocent websites and servers, while hosting illegal stuff and doing illegal things himself with the use of his own wanadoo.fr servers, stuff which includes child porn, bestiality porn, DVD Piracy, DDOS Attacks, theft of copyrighted materials from gameing companies such as nintendo, Credit Card fraud, theft, spamming, phone harrassment, useage of illegal pirated corperate softwares, all this just to start the list of what Unixmad, Stefan, and they're servers are doing 24/7 for nearly 4 years now , anyone that likes unixmad or thinks he is a good person even after all this is clearly a fool, everything in this document is the truth and why i hate unixmad so much, if you like unixmad after all these sickening things he does, then you are no better than a KKK or Neo Nazi member and should go kill yourselfs, i do not tolerate facists, racists, or nazis, they are all bad people, and unixmad is one of the worst of the worst, and no person with any morales could tolerate or support such a person like Stephane Portha or Stefan Knorr. The people that spin, lie and bend the truth in support of unixmad will always exist, but i will always reveal the truth about unixmad, and EVERYTHING said in this document is true, despite what any assclowns try and say about this, and this supriseingly enough is only 1% of the bad things Unixmad has done, how some people even tolerate, none the less support such a bad person is beyond me... I fight against bad people like unixmad, why? Because unlike many others in this world i actually care about other people, and i will do everything in my power to stop unixmad from hurting graal or its innocent players, many say i want to destroy and kill graal, this is NOT true, i used to love graal, i only wish to stop unixmad's evil sadistic illegal actions and restore graal to the great game it used to be when it was "for the players, by the players" , but if i have to destroy GraalOnline in exchange to stop unixmad's tyranny, it will be regreteable, but sometimes some sacrifices have to be made for the greater good, lets just hope that unixmad drops dead and that sacrifice never has to be made... I love graal and lots of its players, and i wish to someday restore it to the grandness it once had, but bad people like unixmad must be gotten rid of if that is to be achieved...''' |
| Graal Kingdoms when watching the M map
| |
| | |
| script command putleaps works on gmaps
| |
| | |
| script command showani fixed when called
| |
| from a weapon script (parameters are
| |
| correctly used and the animation is animated)
| |
| | |
| | |
| -------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.17
| |
| -------------------------------
| |
| | |
| This release doesn't contain very big
| |
| new additions, but fixes a lot of little
| |
| things and does little improvements. Most
| |
| major improvements have to do with Graal Kingdoms:
| |
| | |
| | |
| major speed ups on Graal Kingdoms overworld
| |
| (drawing of objects, drawing of showimgs)
| |
| | |
| level heights are now loaded and stored in the
| |
| level files instead of the gmap, so making the
| |
| gmap files less big, allowing to change the
| |
| heights dynamically (will be enabled on
| |
| server-side soon), and making the hacking
| |
| of heights on client-side more harder
| |
| | |
| Bug fixes:
| |
| | |
| showani2 finally works
| |
| | |
| when you die the screen is correctly
| |
| made black
| |
| | |
| fixed problems with automapping when
| |
| getting out of the map by wrong links
| |
| or scripts
| |
| | |
| when editing map levels offline then the
| |
| npcs of near levels are correctly displayed
| |
| when in game mode
| |
| | |
| Ganis:
| |
| | |
| gani movies work better, PARAMs
| |
| and ATTRs are correctly loaded
| |
| (see starting movie of Graal Kingdoms)
| |
| | |
| in gani movies you can use message codes
| |
| in text messages and in the chat text of
| |
| actors
| |
| | |
| gani scripts can access the gani parameters:
| |
| when you do setani myani,1,2,3; then
| |
| the script in myani.gani can access the
| |
| parameters '1','2' and '3' via the
| |
| message codes #p(0), #p(1) etc.
| |
| | |
| when an animation is started again
| |
| (not continuous) then the gani script
| |
| gets a 'playerenters' event again
| |
| | |
| Scripting:
| |
| | |
| hideimgs startindex,endindex;
| |
| hides all images/animations/texts/polygons
| |
| displayed with showimg/showani/showtext/showpoly
| |
| that have an index which is
| |
| startindex<=index<=endindex
| |
| | |
| when a projectile lands then the client-side
| |
| can do effects now too, all weapon scripts can
| |
| catch the event with if (actionprojectile);
| |
| the first two paramters (#p(0) and #p(1)) contain
| |
| the position of the impact, #p(2) etc. are the
| |
| normal parameters which you have specified with
| |
| setshootparams before shooting the projectile
| |
| | |
| | |

| |
| | |
| editor-map making (M) is working for gmaps
| |
| | |
| added the gmap-option NOAUTOMAPPING for disabling
| |
| auto mapping for certain maps
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.16 rev6

| |
| | |
| the initializing of DirectX has been fixed to
| |
| work more optimized when switching to fullscreen,
| |
| possibly be more compatible with some gfx cards
| |
| | |
| a 'memory leak' with npcs has been fixed, images
| |
| of npcs have often not been discarded when leaving a
| |
| level, possibly making the game slower after some
| |
| playing, and causing freezing of nvidia gfx cards
| |
| because of too much use of the gfx card memory
| |
| | |
| the script functions screenx/y have been fixed
| |
| for being used by weapon scripts
| |
| | |
| the layer of gani movie actors is set correctly
| |
| | |
| the assignment operator /= has been added,
| |
| so you can now use +=, -=, *=, /=, ++ and --
| |
| | |
| the order how operators are parsed has been fixed
| |
| to match normal mathematical conventions,
| |
| now 4/2/2 is seen as (4/2)/2, which makes 1,
| |
| instead of 4/(2/2) which gave the wrong result of 4
| |
| | |
| the favourite-quote-field in the profile window uses
| |
| the same font like the other fields
| |
| | |
| when you switch from the tutorial into editor mode
| |
| via F4 then the classic character and animations are
| |
| restored
| |
| | |
| new script variable isfocused which is set to true (1)
| |
| when you have currently set a focus via setfocus
| |
| | |
| the debugger hint for array members is fixed to only
| |
| show the value of the member, not the whole array
| |
| | |
| the script command setlevel has been fixed; this command

| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed an endless drawing loop when a gani
| |
| is used as gani attribute and is using itself
| |
| | |
| -------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.16
| |
| -------------------------------
| |
| | |
| This new release mainly brings more ways of using ganis
| |
| (animations), it also brings several speed ups, and more things
| |
| for the serverlist.
| |
| | |
| Scripting:
| |
| | |
| | |
| there is now support for real transperency:
| |
| seteffectmode mode;
| |
| changeimgmode index,mode;
| |
| EFFECTMODE sprite mode (gani file command)
| |
| | |
| The command seteffectmode can be used to change
| |
| the way the npc image is drawn when using the
| |
| setcoloreffect red,green,blue,alpha; command (alpha<1):
| |
| by default the image colors are added to the graphics
| |
| below, with the intensity of 'alpha', which makes the
| |
| image appear like a light since it is making the
| |
| graphics below appear more bright; now there are different
| |
| modes:
| |
| 0 - lights (colors are added, alpha specifies intensity)
| |
| 1 - transparency (alpha specifies how much visible)
| |
| 2 - holes (colors are subtracted)
| |
| | |
| | |
| more 'gani' attributes: #P(10-30)
| |
| In the so called gani attribues you can store additional
| |
| player attributes, which can also be used in the animation
| |
| editor (ATTR1 etc.). On Graal2001 we used them to store
| |
| the filename of the current hat and for the metris height,
| |
| on Graal2002 we also store filenames for arms, legs, hairs
| |
| and the value for the hp display of monsters in those attributes.
| |
| They can be accessed with 'setplayerprop #P1,value',
| |
| 'setcharprop' and can be read by using #P1..#P9 in text.
| |
| Because they are quite useful for a lot of things, there
| |
| was the need for more such attribute fields, so 21 new gani
| |
| attributes have been added. They can be access with the message
| |
| code #P(index), index being a value between 1 and 30.
| |
| | |
| | |
| gani scripts can read all variables/flags now
| |
| (except this. vars of other npcs and weapons of couse)
| |
| | |
| | |
| gani scripts are shared between players/npcs having the
| |
| same gani, meaning less lag and memory taken for parsing scripts
| |
| | |
| | |
| ganis as gani attributes
| |
| As described above, you can store several informations in
| |
| the 'gani attributes' of the players and npcs. Once the
| |
| attribute is sent to the other players, their Graal will
| |
| check if the attribute is a special value, e.g. an image
| |
| filename, and will load it so that the animations of the
| |
| player can access it and display it.
| |
| But plain images are quite limited. To make it possible
| |
| to do more in the animations, they can do gani scripts
| |
| (put in SCRIPT ... SCRIPTEND commands). So they can
| |
| display special images or play randomly sound effects.
| |
| A problem with those scripts is that they get replaced
| |
| once the animation of the player changes, so if you want
| |
| e.g. always display special graphics over the head of the
| |
| player you would need to do it in some weapons script, but
| |
| those are only run locally.
| |
| | |
| So you can now use ganis as 'gani attributes'. You can try it
| |
| by doing the command
| |
| | |
| setplayerprop #P1,tutorial_touch.gani;
| |
| | |
| That will display the 'Touch to get information' animation from
| |
| the wizard of the new starting level on top of the player,
| |
| so your player now has two animations. Since there are 30
| |
| 'gani attribures', you can display 30 more animations on
| |
| top of the player, and all other players will see those too.
| |
| Of course it will not make sense to display 30 tutorial_touch.ganis,
| |
| but you can probably imagine what possibilities open with that:
| |
| you can display a bird pet flying around the players head
| |
| with just one command, and making the gani for the bird of course.
| |
| As long as the attribute is not changed, the bird will continue
| |
| to fly. In the script of the bird gani you can also put
| |
| some sounds.
| |
| Since gani scripts can read all variables now,
| |
| you can even put scripts for displaying stats in the gani,
| |
| and the script doesn't need to be put in a wepaon and sent to
| |
| the player with each login.
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script commands showani and showani2 for
| |
| displaying animations without adding new npcs
| |
| | |
| showani index,x,y,direction,animation,params;
| |
| showani2 index,x,y,z,direction,animation,params;
| |
| | |
| Displays an animation at the specified position. It
| |
| will use the attributes of the npc for the head/body etc.
| |
| | |
| For showani there exist following modifier commands:
| |
| * changeimgvis index,layer;
| |
| * tells graal where to display the animation: 0 - under players,
| |
| 1 - same layer liker players (default), 2 - over players,
| |
| 4 - on the status bar, specified coordinates will work
| |
| as screen coordinates instead of world coordinates
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script commands showpoly and showpoly2 for
| |
| displaying polygons:
| |
| | |
| showpoly index,{x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3,..};
| |
| showpoly2 index,{x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2,x3,y3,z3,..};
| |
| | |
| This commands displays a polygon on the specified
| |
| position. It will close the polygon (last coordinate to
| |
| first coordinate) and will fill the polygon.
| |
| If you only provide 4 numbers (e.g. showpoly 1,{10,10,20,20};)
| |
| then it will draw a line (in this case from (10,10) to (20,20)).
| |
| | |
| For showpoly there exist following modifier commands:
| |
| * changeimgcolors index,red,green,blue,1;
| |
| * changes the colors, red/green/blue must be values between 0 and 1
| |
| * changeimgvis index,layer;
| |
| * tells graal where to display the polygon: 0 - under players,
| |
| 1 - same layer liker players, 2 - over players (default),
| |
| 4 - on the status bar, specified coordinates will work
| |
| as screen coordinates instead of world coordinates
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script commands showtext and showtext2 for
| |
| displaying text (instead of doing showimg 1,@@@ things):
| |
| | |
| showtext index,x,y,font,style,text;
| |
| showtext2 index,x,y,z,font,style,text;
| |
| | |
| It works like showimg, but you are displaying a text
| |
| on the specified position. The style is a string with
| |
| the letters b (bold),i (italic),r (right-aligned),
| |
| u (underscore), s (strikeout), c (centered).
| |
| | |
| For showtext there exist following modifier commands:
| |
| changeimgcolors index,red,green,blue,1;
| |
| * changes the colors, red/green/blue must be values between 0 and 1
| |
| changeimgzoom index,zoomfactor;
| |
| * makes the text bigger/smaller, by default a text is 24 pixels high
| |
| changeimgvis index,layer;
| |
| * tells graal where to display the text: 0 - under players,
| |
| 1 - same layer liker players, 2 - over players (default),
| |
| 4 - on the status bar, specified coordinates will work
| |
| as screen coordinates instead of world coordinates
| |
| | |
| | |
| scriptfunction for disabling features
| |
| enablefeatures flags;
| |
| A description of all flags:
| |
| 1 - M key (map)
| |
| 2 - P key (pause)
| |
| 4 - Q key (weapon select)
| |
| 8 - R key (show ratings)
| |
| 0x10 - S+A key combination for dropping items

| 0x80 - display of chat text
| |
| 0x100 - display of the hearts over player heads
| |
| 0x200 - display of nicknames
| |
| 0x400 - toall/PM-icons on the minimap
| |
| 0x800 - right-click on players opens their profile
| |
| 0x1000 - emoticons (disable it if you want to do other stuff with control+keys)
| |
| 0x2000 - Alt+5 for making snapshots
| |
| 0x4000 - Alt+8/9 for zooming
| |
| 0x8000 - the logframe where savelog stuff is added

| allfeatures:
| |
| So to disable the profile click you can do:
| |
| | |
| enablefeatures allfeatures-0x800;
| |
| | |
| If you want to disable everything except the
| |
| tabulator key, then do:
| |
| | |
| enablefeatures 0x40;
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script variable 'allstats' which is the addition
| |
| of all stats flags, so 'showstats allstats;' will
| |
| enable all default status bar stuff again
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script function getdir(dx,dy): gives the
| |
| direction a player/npc must look when watching
| |
| an object at (dx,dy) relative to the player/npc
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script function log(base,x)
| |
| the inverse of the power function (^):
| |
| base^log(base,val) = val; e.g. log(3,9)=2;
| |
| it tells you with what exponent the base
| |
| must be powered to reach val
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script function aindexof(value,array)
| |
| calculates the positon of the first occurance
| |
| of value in the given array
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script functions min(a,b) and max(a,b)
| |
| calculate the minimum/maximum of a and b
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script functions screenx(x,y), screeny(x,y)
| |
| convert level coordinates (world coordinates) to
| |
| positions on the screen; you must specifiy both
| |
| x and y so that the functions works correctly
| |
| on Graak2002 terrain
| |
| | |
| | |
| worldx(x,y), worldy(x,y)
| |
| convert screen positions (e.g. mousescreenx) to
| |
| level coordinates; you must specifiy both
| |
| x and y so that the functions works correctly
| |
| on Graak2002 terrain
| |
| | |
| | |
| the script variables mousex/y are fixed on zoomed screen
| |
| (when the player pressed Alt+8/9)
| |
| | |
| | |
| the access if string lists has been optmized
| |
| | |
| | |
| the showimg height (z) is fixed when displaying
| |
| showimgs of other players
| |
| | |
| | |
| in string operations the #b message code is passed instead of
| |
| removed, so you can add lines to text that you want display with
| |
| say2, like
| |
| | |
| setstring msg,Hello!#bHow are you?;
| |
| say2 #s(msg);
| |
| | |
| will display:
| |
| | |
| Hello
| |
| How are you?
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed a bug with the else command that was sometimes merged
| |
| with a following if that wasnt supposed to be merged
| |
| | |
| | |
| the onwall(x,y) function is working better when used 'in the sea'
| |
| (Graal2002 terrain that is under zero), it checks for
| |
| npcs at the height 0 instead of the ground of the sea,
| |
| since the player and npcs are normally at height 0
| |
| | |
| | |
| the variables focusx/y have been fixed when assigning negative
| |
| values to them; the limits are -64..128
| |
| | |
| | |
| keydown2 is fixed, when you dont add 256,512 or 1024
| |
| (shift, control, alt) to the key number then it doesn't
| |
| return 'true' when those special keys are not pressed;
| |
| a few keycodes that can be used in keydown2 to check for
| |
| normally unaccessible keys (have not test all of them though):
| |
| 8 - back
| |
| 9 - tab
| |
| 13 - return
| |
| 16 - shift
| |
| 17 - control
| |
| 18 - alt
| |
| 33 - page up
| |
| 34 - page down
| |
| 35 - end
| |
| 36 - home
| |
| 42 - print key
| |
| 45 - insert
| |
| 46 - delete
| |
| 91 - left windows key
| |
| 92 - right windows key
| |
| 93 - mouse popup key
| |
| 112-123 - F1-F12
| |
| 144 - numlock
| |
| 160 - left shift
| |
| 161 - right shift
| |
| 162 - left control
| |
| 163 - right control
| |
| 164 - left alt/menu
| |
| 165 - right alt/menu
| |
| | |
| | |
| in gani scripts you can use changeimgcolors, changeimgzoom and
| |
| changeimgmode to change the attributes of sprites; the
| |
| sprite must already be in texture mode (e.g. by doing
| |
| a line 'COLOREFFECT spriteindex red green blue alpha' in the
| |
| gani)
| |
| | |
| | |
| npc actions/events are no longer mixed with the 'sleep' timeout
| |
| event which caused those events to get vanished
| |
| | |
| | |
| script variables musicpos and musiclen to get the posiiton/length
| |
| of the currently played music track; this doesn't work for
| |
| midis
| |
| | |
| Sound:
| |
| | |
| when graal is starting it doesn set the volume to maximum
| |
| anymore
| |
| | |
| | |
| there is now a special tab for the microphone settings in the
| |
| options window; there is a new choice box for selecting the
| |
| microphone codec used to encode the speech, you can select
| |
| if it automatically selects the best codec depending on the
| |
| listener count (players near you), or you directly select a
| |
| codec if you e.g. want to speak with good quality when all
| |
| listeners have good bandwidth;
| |
| there is also a choice box for selecting the input device
| |
| (sound driver)
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the options window on the 'Audio' tab you can see the
| |
| filename of the currently displayed music track, and
| |
| you can stop/play it again
| |
| | |
| | |
| walking sounds are only played for the default ganis
| |
| | |
| | |
| General:
| |
| | |
| in the serverlist window when clicking on the class/playerworlds
| |
| tab you see a new box for typing in the name of the playerworld
| |
| you want to go in case it is not listed
| |
| | |
| | |
| you can go out of the pause mode by pressing the enter key
| |
| or space (instead of pressing P)
| |
| | |
| | |
| on Graal2002 maps the mini-heads are displayed on the
| |
| correct height
| |
| | |
| | |
| it now displays toalls and message icons for players on the
| |
| big map (M), and it's possible to click on those to open the
| |
| message (previously they only worked on minimaps)
| |
| | |
| | |
| when the animation of a projectile is looped then the animation
| |
| will be played looped instead of displaying the animation steps 1-7
| |
| depending on the flying angle of the projectile
| |
| | |
| | |
| when the game is running too slow and you have light effects
| |
| enabled (direct3d) then you get a warning and the tip
| |
| that it might be better to disable it
| |
| | |
| | |
| when you have udp enabled but the client doesn't receive
| |
| data from other players in the current level then it warns
| |
| you and tells you to possibly disable UDP to fix the problem
| |
| (since graal automaticaly sends verification data all 5
| |
| seconds it can assume that you must receive data from other
| |
| players if the udp connection is working correctly and is
| |
| not blocked by proxies or firewalls)
| |
| | |
| | |
| when opening the profile of a player by right-clicking on
| |
| him/her the window doesn't pop up two times anymore (before it
| |
| first showed the data from the cached profile from hard disk
| |
| and a few seconds later the updated profile sent by the
| |
| server)
| |
| | |
| | |
| updating of downloaded gani movies work correctly
| |
| | |
| | |
| the graal2002 rpg window has been changed to have not
| |
| input field and to be always on top
| |
| | |
| Editor:
| |
| | |
| the scrollbar position / player position in the
| |
| edited level is remembered correctly when switching
| |
| between levels or going into game mode
| |
| | |
| | |
| when deleting npcs in near map levels it marks the level as
| |
| modified so when you click on the 'save' button they are
| |
| saved
| |
| | |
| | |
| flood fill doesn't crash Graal anymore when done
| |
| on near level (when editing levels on a map)
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed undo when editing map levels and going to another level
| |
| | |
| | |
| M much faster, the scrolling cross doesn't appear on the
| |
| generate map image anymore
| |
| | |
| | |
| the debugger uses 4 tabs for the vars/this.vars/npc attributes/strings
| |
| instead of separate lists, so making things more organized and easier
| |
| to access
| |
| | |
| | |
| only needed attributes of npcs are displayed, and it displays the
| |
| gani attributes now (#P(1-30))
| |
| | |
| | |
| debugger: when moving the mouse over variables in the script then it
| |
| displays a short description depending on what is under the mouse:
| |
| for variables the current value will be shown, for script commands
| |
| the parameters, for images the size of the image
| |
| | |
| | |
| there is a new button right of the 'signs' button in the toolbar of
| |
| the editor: when clicking on it you see the currently selected
| |
| tiles rectangle as text, so you can copy it for using it in scripts;
| |
| that is very useful for editor npcs (the editnpc*.txt thing)
| |
| | |
| | |
| the script commands showimg and putnpc are enabled for editor npcs
| |
| | |
| | |
| with and other serverside script functions doesn't cause errors
| |
| anymore when editing the script
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the script editor you see errors on the correct positions
| |
| | |
| | |
| new command line options:
| |
| -play: directly puts the player in playing mode
| |
| -x value: puts the player/scrollbars on the specified x position
| |
| -y value: specifies the y position
| |
| | |

| New features/bug fixes in v2.15 rev2
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed a bug which sometimes crashed Graal on Graal2002
| |
| (and in seldom cases on other servers too)
| |
| | |
| baddies don't walk out the level when its a part of
| |
| a (txt-) map
| |
| | |
| the <graalmsg>#n or other message codes</graalmsg> tag
| |
| in PMs works correctly again
| |
| | |
| | |
| -------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.15
| |
| -------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| this version is mainly for fixing bugs and enabling
| |
| Graal2002
| |
| | |
| fixed a translation error in the starting window
| |
| | |
| scripts don't get keyboard events when the player is typing
| |
| chat in the chat box
| |
| | |
| when using the script command setmusicvolume for setting the
| |
| volume of the left and right speaker then it is setting
| |
| the volume relative to the selected music volume in the
| |
| option window (1=selected volume,0=silent)
| |
| | |
| looping of mp3 and mods work
| |
| | |
| correct coloring and shading of text in gani movies
| |
| | |
| new script command showimg2 for displaying an image in
| |
| '3d-space' (inlcuding z):
| |
| showimg2 index,image,x,y,z;
| |
| | |
| the letters image set with setletters is automatically
| |
| downloaded
| |
| | |
| checking for updates of audio files on the server
| |
| | |
| in the editor you can scroll up/down with the mouse wheel;
| |
| scrolling with arrow keys works in single levels too
| |
| | |
| optimized handling of showimgs
| |
| | |
| | |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.14 rev7
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| major speedup on graal2001 (or other servers using many
| |
| variables on client-side) when walking between levels
| |
| | |
| added script commands enablepause,disablepause,enablemap,
| |
| disablemap to enable the normal pausing (P) or mapping (M),
| |
| and script flags playerpaused, playermap to check if the player is
| |
| in pause mode or is seeing the map;
| |
| if you already want to use use these things before the next Graal
| |
| version is released (and so all players have it) you can also
| |
| check for the variable graalversion to see if the disabling of pausing
| |
| works (if (graalversion<2.147) message please download the latest exe
| |
| if you want to play this minigame;)
| |
| | |
| keydown2 now always returns false when the main graal window is not
| |
| active (so the scripts don't think you are doing something when you
| |
| are actually typing a PM)
| |
| | |
| | |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.14 rev6
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| again changes in the floating point operations to fix
| |
| some problems that appeared in rev5 (script operation %)
| |
| | |
| voice is not activated when pressing the voice
| |
| activation key while typing in the chat edit field
| |
| | |
| when opening the options window then you don't get
| |
| an error message 'cannot focus' anymore
| |
| | |
| | |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.14 rev5
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed the problem with randomly dieing when using
| |
| the voice chat (problems with fpu mode incompatibility
| |
| between the voice chat dlls and Graal)
| |
| | |
| the script variable 'graalversion' is updated to 2.145
| |
| instead of still being 2.134
| |
| | |
| when the z variable of the player is different than 0
| |
| then it is transfered to the other players (formerly
| |
| it was only sent when being on a 3d terrain map)
| |
| | |
| Graal takes less windows ressources (window handles etc.)
| |
| by not initializing stuff at startup that is only needed
| |
| in the editor mode
| |
| | |
|
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.14 rev4
| |
| ------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| the voice activation key and selection of voice
| |
| activation by volume or key is saved so you don't
| |
| need to configure it again when restarting Graal
| |
| | |
| the voice playback and recording is fixed to not
| |
| crash the game anymore when there are a lot of people
| |
| speaking
| |
| | |
| corrected some voice package length errors
| |
| | |
| the soundfx volume is correctly handled (instead of
| |
| soundfx volume=midi volume)
| |
| | |
| when you use the command playlooped then only one
| |
| looping sound is played (fixes draisine sound on
| |
| Graal2001)
| |
| | |
| players on trial accounts can send PMs (Personal Messages)
| |
| to staff (double-click on players in the staff section of
| |
| the player list)
| |
| | |
| | |
| -------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.14
| |
| -------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| the server list has now two tabs, in one tab the servers
| |
| managed by the company are displayed (Graal2001, Graal2002),
| |
| in the other list you see all classic servers (classic and
| |
| playerworlds);
| |
| the servers are sorted by player count
| |
| | |
| | |
| to enable the new voice chatting feature open the Graal options
| |
| and enable the microphone ('Audio' options)
| |
| to test the output speak into the microphone and
| |
| see the output level on the bar on the right side of the option
| |
| window;
| |
| | |
| there is also a rectangle which is red or green depending on
| |
| the voice level, that rectangle shows if the game has interpreted
| |
| the voice level as high enough to be sent to the other players;
| |
| it should only be green when you speak so its not sending data
| |
| all the time; by moving the slider you can change the voice
| |
| activation level, move it up when it's too often green, move it
| |
| down when you can't hear yourself anymore;
| |
| | |
| you can also activate the mircophone by hand if you don't want to
| |
| have it automatically send the voice when you speak; for that select
| |
| 'Key' as the activation method and click on the rectangle right to
| |
| it if you want to change the key that activates the voice
| |
| | |
| in the game you automatically hear other people speaking when they are
| |
| close to you (16 tiles=256 pixels), set the voice volume to 0 in the
| |
| option window if you don't want to hear other people; you can mute
| |
| single players by right-clicking on a player in the player list and
| |
| selecting 'Mute', or in the game by right-clicking on the players
| |
| and enable the 'Mute check box in their profile
| |
| | |
| Graal automatically chooses the best voice encoding codec depending
| |
| on how many people are hearing you; if there are 1 or 2 people then
| |
| it uses GSM (mobile phone quality, 13 kbit), when there are 3-5 people
| |
| then LPC (4.8 kbit), when there are more than 5 people then it uses
| |
| LPC-10 (2.4 kbit). The quality of the voice depends on your microphone,
| |
| it should have something to filter wind, otherwise the lower quality
| |
| codecs have problems and make you sound like you are singing; in the
| |
| options window you can choose a different testing codecs to hear if your
| |
| microphone still works good with lower quality codecs
| |
| | |
| | |
| Graal now supports more music formats: ogg, mp3, mod (and other
| |
| tracker formats), radio streaming, wma;
| |
| you can use the normal play command to play such files;
| |
| to play an url you must add the http:// otherwise it will not
| |
| see that you want to access an internet stream instead of a local
| |
| file;
| |
| wma is only supported on machines where the microsoft wma libraries
| |
| are installed (or recent media player versions)
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the Graal options you can set the volume levels
| |
| for midi, mp3/ogg/mod music, radio streams, voice and sound fxs
| |
| | |
| | |
| new script functions to access the keyboard
| |
| * events:
| |
| keypressed - occurs when a standard key has been pressed; because
| |
| several keys can be pressed at the same time you get the
| |
| pressed key directly as a parameter to the script (like in
| |
| actionxxx event): #p(0) is the keycode, #p(1) the character
| |
| (when its standard key);
| |
| * functions:
| |
| keycode(character) - gets the key code for the character
| |
| (identical to the windows virtual key code)
| |
| keydown2(keycode,ignorecase) - checks if a key has been pressed,
| |
| ignorecase must be true if you want to turn off the check
| |
| for shift/alt/control key, so keydown2(keycode(A),true) will be
| |
| true whenever you press A or Shift+A or Alt+A
| |
| * a script to display 'on' when pressing '1' and displaying
| |
| 'off' when pressing '2':
| |
| | |
| if (keypressed) {
| |
| code = strtofloat(#p(0));
| |
| if (code==keycode(1,false)) message on;
| |
| else if (code==keycode(2,false)) message off;
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| The same without converting it to the key code:
| |
| | |
| if (keypressed) {
| |
| if (strequals(#p(1),1)) message on;
| |
| else if (strequals(#p(1),2)) message off;
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| | |
| the script functions for accessing the mouse are now
| |
| available in the game, some new functions have been added:
| |
| * mouse variables:
| |
| mousex, mousey - position of the mouse in the level
| |
| mousebuttons - tells you which mouse buttons are pressed,
| |
| it's a sum of the values 1 for left mouse button, 2 for middle
| |
| mouse button and 4 for the right mouse button, so it's 1+2+4=7
| |
| when all buttons are pressed; you can also use the flags described
| |
| later to easier check for the mouse buttons
| |
| mousescreenx, mousescreeny - position of the mouse in the game screen
| |
| mousewheeldelta - the movement of the mouse wheel in the last 0.05 seconds
| |
| * flags for checking if a mouse button is pressed:
| |
| leftmousebutton - is set when the left mouse button is down
| |
| middlemousebutton - is set when the middle mouse button is down
| |
| rightmousebutton - is set when the right mouse button is down
| |
| * events:
| |
| mousedown - occurs when a mouse button has been pressed, so
| |
| you can do things like if (mousedown && leftmousebutton) message hi;
| |
| mouseup - occurs when a mouse button has been released
| |
| mousewheel - occurs when the mouse wheel has been used
| |
| * triggered actions (only on npcs where the player has clicked on,
| |
| is also sent to the npcserver):
| |
| actionleftmouse - the player has clicked on the npc
| |
| actionmiddlemouse - the player has clicked with the middle mouse button on the npc
| |
| actionrightmouse - the player has right-clicked on the npc
| |
| actiondoublemouse - the player has double-clicked on the npc
| |
| | |
| | |
| new GraalShop version which introduces the
| |
| 'gani movie mode', where you can add and move
| |
| actors instead of sprites; it allows easy editing
| |
| of the attributes of the different actor types
| |
| (character, sprite, text, sound), movement is
| |
| automatically done when you change the position
| |
| of an actor in two different frames, so
| |
| you can make little movies or cut-scenes;
| |
| by setting the flag 'playerlook' of an actor you
| |
| can specify which actor should copy the look of
| |
| the actor;
| |
| when you use the gani for a player then
| |
| the first playerlook actor will also be focused
| |
| and possibly move the player when the movie
| |
| is finished and the first actor is on a different
| |
| position;
| |
| 'movie mode' ganis have the same ending, to
| |
| switch between (the old) sprite mode and movie mode
| |
| just click on the upper right button in GraalShop;
| |
| the movie mode is not meant to be a replacement for
| |
| the sprite mode: for simple animations you must
| |
| use the sprite mode, while the movie mode is for
| |
| more complex cut scenes
| |
| | |
| | |
| the PM (personal message) window has been changed: when
| |
| replying to someone you still see the original message
| |
| so its easier to keep track of what the other one asked
| |
| you;
| |
| people that play with trial accounts can only reply to
| |
| messages, they cannot start a PM conversation
| |
| | |
| | |
| the attributes displayed in the right side of the
| |
| profiles window can now be customized by the server admins:
| |
| in the server options this line must appear to set the
| |
| default profile attributes:
| |
| | |
| profilevars=playerkills,playerdeaths,playerfullhearts,playerrating,playerap,playerrupees,playerswordpower,canspin
| |
| | |
| Variables can be playerkills,playerdeaths,playerfullhearts,playerrating,
| |
| playerap,playerrupees,playerswordpower,canspin,playerhearts,playerdarts,
| |
| playerbombs,playermp,playershieldpower and playerglovepower.
| |
| You can also give the name of a string variable, if you write
| |
| clientr.maxhp instead of playerfullhearts then it will display the value
| |
| of clientr.maxhp (when its clientr.maxh=50 then it will display 50).
| |
| You can also change the name that is shown on the left side (name
| |
| of the attribute), for that write 'Max HP:=clientr.maxhp', which would
| |
| display 'Max HP:' on the left side. You can do that do add new fields
| |
| you want to show when people right-click on someone else.
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the playerlist you can set your own status, then an
| |
| icon will be displayed on the playerlist and on the map instead of
| |
| your head; the default status types are for 'online' (player available',
| |
| 'away' and 'dnd' (do not disturb); server admins can add new status icons,
| |
| for that change the 'playerlisticons=' line in the serveroptions. For
| |
| adding a 'survivor' status/icon change it to
| |
| | |
| playerlisticons=Online,Away,DND,Survivor
| |
| | |
| Then in the playerlist there will be a new status 'Survivor', for
| |
| the icon the game will try to load 'plisticonsurvivor.png', so you
| |
| should upload an icon under that name before adding the status to the
| |
| server options
| |
| | |
| | |
| with the script command 'serverwarp <world>;'
| |
| you can warp the player to another server; the
| |
| 'world' parameter must be the internal name of the
| |
| server (for classic it is main, for Graal2001 newmain,
| |
| Andor bravo, N-Pulse npulse, ...)
| |
| | |
| | |
| files bigger than 64k can be downloaded, which
| |
| means that big tilesets and maps can be updated
| |
| without releasing a new Graal version;
| |
| to display the status of a download you can use
| |
| the script variable downloadpos and the message
| |
| code #D (filename)
| |
| | |
| | |
| gani scripts work for projectiles (shoot command, see more
| |
| explaination of that command below)
| |
| | |
| | |
| gmaps (maps for the Graal2002 terrain and dungeons)
| |
| are automatically downloaded
| |
| | |
| | |
| the automapping function now works better on the
| |
| Graal2002 terrain and saves the map parts in good
| |
| quality (using octree color quantitization)
| |
| | |
| | |
| the script commands callnpc and callweapon can have parameters
| |
| that are forwarded to the called npc which can access them
| |
| via #p(0), #p(1), ..., like when doing triggeraction on an npc
| |
| | |
| | |
| setmusicvolume should work better now
| |
| | |
| | |
| addtiledef2 works together with setbackpal (again)
| |
| and is fixed (tiledefs don't stay when going into other
| |
| levels)
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the npc scripting window you have a button that lets you
| |
| type in text to search for in the script; by typing 'F3' you
| |
| can continue a search without opening the 'Find' window again
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the npc scripting window it now jumps to the error position
| |
| and highlights the correct script position where the error
| |
| appeared
| |
| | |
| | |
| some stuff that has been added in earlier version but
| |
| were not documented:
| |
| * script variables anistep, playeranistep, players[index].anistep
| |
| which give you the animation frame in the gani of the
| |
| npc / player
| |
| * new script command 'shoot' for shooting projectiles:
| |
| shoot x,y,z,angle,zangle,power,gani,ganiparams;
| |
| x,y and z - specify the starting position
| |
| angle - shoot angle (when looking from the top): east is 0,
| |
| north 3.14/2, west is 3.14, south 3.14*3/2)
| |
| zangle - the angle in vertical direction, 0 means the
| |
| projectile is shoot horizontal, 3.14/2 means straight to the
| |
| sun
| |
| power - the shoot power which is used to shoot the projectile;
| |
| if it's 0 then the projectile is shoot like an old arrow
| |
| (doesn't fall down, moves 20 tiles each second)
| |
| gani - the animation that is used for the projectile; the
| |
| animation can be multidirectional, the engine automatically
| |
| selects the best direction for the flying direction; the
| |
| animation can have 1 step (not animated) or 7 steps, then the
| |
| engine is automatically choosing the good animation step for
| |
| the projectile flying angle - when its raising then step 1 is
| |
| taken, when flying horizontal it is step 4, when it is short before
| |
| the impact then the engine displays step 7
| |
| When the projectile is landing or hitting an object then some actions
| |
| are triggered. With the command 'setshootparams <params>;' you can set
| |
| the parameters that the called scripts get, call 'setshootparams' before
| |
| shooting the projectile.
| |
| Client-side events:
| |
| * actionprojectile:
| |
| is triggered when a projectile lands on the player/npc,
| |
| in #p(0), #p(1) etc. you have the parameters set with the
| |
| command setshootparams
| |
| Server-side events:
| |
| * actionprojectile:
| |
| is triggered when a client has used the 'shoot' command to shoot a
| |
| projectile and the projectile is landed; in #p(0) and #p(1) you have
| |
| the x and y position of the impact in case you want to place an explosion
| |
| or similar things on the ground (the control-npc is automatically warped
| |
| to the level where the impact happened); #p(2),#p(3) etc. contain the
| |
| params set with 'setshootparams' (before shooting the projectile)
| |
| * actionsprojectile:
| |
| is triggered when a server-side script has shot a projectile and the projectile
| |
| is landed; in #p(0) and #p(1) you have the x and y position of the impact
| |
| (the control-npc is automatically warped to the level where the impact
| |
| happened); #p(2),#p(3) etc. contain the params set with 'setshootparams'
| |
| (before shooting the projectile)
| |
| Projectiles are easy to use and don't take a lot of bandwidth because only
| |
| the shooting of the projectile needs to be sent, the movement is calculated on
| |
| the different computers. The projectile is flying like a heavy object thrown
| |
| through the air: the horizontal movement speed keeps the same (moves
| |
| horzspeed=cos(zangle)*speed tiles all 0.05 seconds), the vertical speed is
| |
| initialized as vertspeed=sin(zangle)*speed and is decreased by 0.1 all 0.05 seconds;
| |
| then the new position (calculated all 0.05 seconds) is
| |
| newx = x + cos(angle)*horzspeed, newy = y - sin(angle)*horzspeed,
| |
| newz = z + vertspeed

| New features/bug fixes in v2.13 revision4
| |
| -----------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| fixed making/saving of new levels in the editor when
| |
| using desktop links to start Graal
| |
| | |
| fixed putting tiles and predefined objects on levels
| |
| | |
| | |
| -----------------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.13 revision3
| |
| -----------------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| the script command destroy works again
| |
| | |
| fixed compatibility with Win95/98
| |
| | |
| the setstring command sends the new string variable
| |
| correctly to the server
| |
| | |
| the script variable graalversion is now 2.13
| |
| (instead of 2.1)
| |
| | |
| in the offline mode the player is on the normal
| |
| layer like it is supposed to, so he is not drawn
| |
| on top of objects anymore and arrow and projectiles
| |
| work again
| |
| | |
| the not recommended script command playersays() works
| |
| again (the script is called when the player says something);
| |
| but better use if (playerchats && strequals(#c,...))
| |
| | |
| several fixes of the editor mode: caching of levels in
| |
| the memory, position of the player when clicking on 'play',
| |
| dragging baddies,npcs and chests onto a level works like in
| |
| old days (you can release the mouse button and then move the
| |
| object if you don't want to keep it pressed)
| |
| | |
| fixed memory leaks
| |
| | |
| npc actions are deleted when leaving a level (so
| |
| when using setlevel/setlevel2 then it is not producing
| |
| an endless loop)
| |
| | |
| emoticons are not hiding weapon showimgs anymore,
| |
| emoticons have the index 0 (so don't use index 0 for
| |
| showimg if you don't want it to be hidden when an emoticon
| |
| is displayed)
| |
| | |
| npcservers can now attach players to local npcs (was producing
| |
| warping errors before)
| |
| | |
| detection for players that are in 'hidden under carried object' mode
| |
| but don't carry anything
| |
| | |
| optimized loading and 'playerenters' for npcs on graal2002 maps
| |
| | |
| | |
| -------------------------------
| |
| New features/bug fixes in v2.13
| |
| -------------------------------
| |
| | |
| | |
| in the editor single levels have scrollbars again,
| |
| and on maps you see a big cursor instead of a player
| |
| and the cursor is always on top so it's easier to scroll
| |
| by moving the cursor
| |
| | |
| when clicking on 'play' in the editor then all modified
| |
| levels are saved
| |
| | |
| in the editor it's now possible to script 'editor control-npcs';
| |
| for that you need to create a file editnpcNAME.txt and script
| |
| editor actions in it, see levels/npcs/editnpcSandPath.txt for
| |
| an example; you have new script variables mousex,mousey,mousescreenx,
| |
| mousescreeny,mousebuttons (sum of left=1, middle=2, right=4) which
| |
| only work in the editor mode; currently only changing tiles is
| |
| supported, in the future there could also be things like placing
| |
| random npcs or so
| |
| | |
| the map making button M is fixed (in the editor)
| |
| | |
| there is 'Translate' button in the PM window; depending on
| |
| what language you and the other player have it opens a
| |
| translation website
| |
| | |
| new script functions imgwidth(filename) and imgheight(filename)
| |
| for getting the size of an image which is already loaded in
| |
| the memory
| |
| | |
| optimized parts of the scripting engine (accessing flags and
| |
| string variables, calculating values)
| |
| | |
| fixed bug with the auto-mapping which caused linking errors
| |
| (player disappearing)
| |
| | |
| dont-connnect-levels option works again on normal maps
| |
| | |
| better guild tag protection at login
| |
| | |
| images are not immediatelly discarded anymore; the game will
| |
| wait 5 seconds (will speed up things where you often changed the
| |
| gani and the reloading of images slowed down the game)
| |
| | |
| testplayer() fixed
| |
| | |
| variable actionplayer should work better now (giving the index
| |
| of the player who has triggered the 'triggeraction' event)
| |
| | |
| when the window for updating the Graal version opens then
| |
| Graal will be closed so that the update works correctly
| |
| | |
| | |
| new graalshop version: undo/redo, scrolling of background when
| |
| clicking outside of a sprite and moving the mouse, selecting more
| |
| than one sprite when pressing Shift while clicking on a sprite
| |
| (click Ctrl+mouse button to remove it from the selection), the
| |
| layer of a sprite can be changed with the + and - buttons,
| |
| scrolling and changing layer works also by pressing keys
| |
| (up,left,down,right,+,-), right click on a sprite in the sprite panel
| |
| on the left side opens the 'Add Sprite' dialog for that sprite so
| |
| you can easily change it, you can drag&drop images into the gani
| |
| editor, it will automatically add a sprite definition and a sprite,
| |
| there are new buttons for reversing the animation and removing
| |
| unused sprite definitions which makes the gani file smaller, you
| |
| can also import sprite definitions from other ganis, SCRIPT
| |
| and COLOREFFECT and ZOOMEFFECT commands in the gani are still
| |
| not displayed but not deleted anymore
| |
| | |
| ATTACHSPRITE command in ganis:
| |
| ATTACHSPRITE 100 40 -8 -18
| |
| will automatically draw sprite 40 on top of sprite 100 whenever
| |
| sprite 100 is drawn; in this example it will be shifted 8 pixels
| |
| west and 18 pixels north; the advantage of this is that you
| |
| can just attach things like hats or armor and don't need to care
| |
| about it when you edit the animations (before this command you
| |
| always needed to add manually all the additional sprites and
| |
| move it each time you move the main sprite)
| |
| | |
| new gani attributes 6-9 (in the game #P6-#P9, in graalshop ATTR6-ATTR9)
| |
| | |
| | |
| new RC version with file browser, server list and RC+NC in one
| |
| program
| |
| | |
| Features & bug fixes of versions <2.13 can
| |
| be found in the file newfeatures2001.txt.
