2 * fixed bug causing EM/EMC graphics sets containing original 16x16 tiles
3 to be displayed incorrectly (with broken scaling) when switching
4 between small and normal game graphics (thanks a lot to filbo for
5 analyzing and describing how to exactly reproduce this bug)
8 * removed MS-DOS support
9 * removed native X11 support (X11 now only supported via SDL/SDL2)
12 * cleanup of functions RedrawPlayfield() and BlitScreenToBitmap()
15 * fixed level redraw after quick-loading tape with small tile graphics
18 * added compatibility code for existing request door animation settings
21 * added ultra-generic, ultra-flexible request door animation handling
24 * fixed major bugs in handling single-player and multi-player tapes
25 (for details, see http://www.artsoft.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2086)
28 * fixed various problems with playfield and requester/tape/editor doors
29 defined to be at non-standard screen positions in artwork config file
32 * added envelope style requester dialog (alternative to door requester)
35 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
36 * added setup option to select anti-aliasing quality of scaled windows
39 * improved speed of displaying progress when loading levels and artwork
40 * changed fullscreen and window scaling changes in setup menu to have
41 immediate effect (instead of being effective after leaving setup menu)
44 * fixed toons stopping on continuous touch events on Mac OS X
47 * fixed bug when displaying game envelope with even sized playfield
48 * added graphic configuration options for request (dialog) buttons
51 * fixed some redraw bugs with window scaling under Mac OS X
54 * fixed problems with window scaling and updating related setup value
57 * fixed problems related to fullscreen switching and window scaling
60 * fixed inconsistent custom artwork constants numbering in src/main.h,
61 src/screen.c and src/conf_gfx.c (this really should be cleaned up)
62 (this bug caused custom artwork definition to set wrong variable)
65 * fixed using fullscreen mode on Android instead of pseudo-window mode
66 * fixed keeping desktop fullscreen mode when changing viewport size
69 * fixed remaining text input problems for non-ASCII keys with modifier
70 * added window scaling options to graphics setup menu
73 * fixed key code problems with certain keys for SDL2
74 (keypad keys not being in numerical order; number of function keys)
75 * fixed text input problems for text characters using modifier keys
78 * fixed fullscreen option for SDL2 (using only desktop fullscreen now)
81 * fixed graphical bugs when using renderer/texture based graphics
84 * fixed playing certain sounds (menu navigation sound and counting
85 score sound after solving a level) when "normal sounds" are disabled
88 * continued porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (levels now playable)
91 * added SDL2 renderer/texture based graphics frame handling to allow for
92 "desktop" style fullscreen mode and scaling of game screen/window
95 * removed limitation of artwork files to selected file types (this means
96 that every file type supported by SDL_image and SDL_mixer can be used)
97 * changed default graphics from PCX to PNG (needed for Android version
98 to prevent painfully slow image loading, although not compressing PCX
99 files in the assets directory of the APK package might also work fine)
100 * fixed bug with SDL_BlitSurface creating garbage when source and target
101 surface are the same (this bug also existed in versions of SDL 1.2.x)
104 * started porting Rocks'n'Diamonds to Android (already shows main menu)
107 * ported Rocks'n'Diamonds to SDL2 (first simple version that works)
110 * version number set to 3.3.1.3
113 * version 3.3.1.2 released
116 * improved error handling: display error message on screen (not only in
117 the error file or on the console), and display path of the error file
120 * fixed problem with R'n'D restarting with same level set that may have
121 caused a problem (and therefore failing again and again); after an
122 error, the last level set is now deactivated in file "levelsetup.conf"
123 to restart with default level set (which should work without error)
126 * fixed determining main game data directory on Mac OS X "Mavericks"
129 * version number set to 3.3.1.2
132 * version 3.3.1.1 released
135 * added scripts directory to distribution package to enable building
136 element definitions after editing artwork config source code files
139 * added volume controls for sounds, loops and music to sound setup
142 * version number set to 3.3.1.1
145 * version 3.3.1.0 released
148 * version number set to 3.3.1.0
151 * fixed display of level time switching from ascending to descending
152 when making use of the "time orb bug" (see element setting in editor)
153 (see level 053 of set "rnd_equinox_tetrachloride_ii" for an example)
154 * fixed graphics performance problems (especially on Mac OS X) by using
155 whole-playfield redraw on SDL target, while still using the previous
156 single-tile redraw method on X11 target (using redraw tiles threshold)
159 * fixed code (esp. random/tape handling) when compiled on 64-bit systems
160 (by replacing all "long" types by "int" types)
163 * fixed nasty bug (affecting crumbled graphics) after adding new special
164 graphics suffix ".TAPE" (and messing some things up in src/main.c)
167 * fixed wrong argument order in DrawTextBuffer() in gadgets.c
168 (this caused fonts in envelope config in level editor being invisible)
171 * fixed some problems with half tile size and even tile sized playfields
174 * added level selection screen (when clicking on main menu level number)
175 * added level tracing (played, solved) for use in level selection screen
176 (to display already played or solved levels in different font color)
179 * added alternative game mode for playing with half size playfield tiles
180 * fixed another memory violation bug in the native Supaplex game engine
181 (this potential memory bug was also in the original Megaplex code, but
182 apparently only occured under rare conditions triggered by using the
183 additional added preceding playfield memory area to make a few strange
184 levels using dirty off-playfield tricks (bugs) like "12s033.sp" also
185 solvable (this all worked fine in the classic DOS version, of course))
188 * added graphics performance optimization to native Supaplex game engine
189 * fixed bug with accidentally removing preceding buffer in SP engine
190 * moved some editor graphics from "RocksDoor.pcx" to "RocksMore.pcx"
191 (to prevent compatibility mapping of these newer graphics to older
192 (custom) versions of "RocksDoor.pcx" which did not contain them yet)
195 * added separately configurable game panel background to graphics config
196 * fixed displaying Supaplex time (now based on 35 fps instead of 50 fps)
199 * added tape panel graphics and screen positions to graphics config
202 * added compatibility stuff for redefined "global.door" (which affects
203 all parts of that image that have their own graphics definition now)
206 * added sound button graphics to graphics config
209 * added tape button graphics and screen positions to graphics config
212 * improved single step mode in R'n'D, EM and SP engines
215 * version number set to 3.3.0.2
218 * version 3.3.0.1 released
221 * added configurable key shortcuts for snap+direction player actions
222 (probably most useful for recording tool-assisted speedrun (TAS)
223 tapes using the single-step mode of the tape recorder)
226 * version number set to 3.3.0.1
229 * version 3.3.0.0 released
232 * fixed missing memory allocation in SP engine when saving engine data
233 for non-SP game engine snapshots (which also stores SP engine part)
236 * fixed problem with scrolling in native EM engine in multi-user mode
237 (this bug was just introduced with the experimental viewport stuff)
238 * fixed animation of splashing acid in EM engine with classic artwork
239 * fixed animation of cracking nut in EM engine with classic artwork
240 * fixed (implemented) single step mode in native EM and SP engines
241 * fixed "latest_engine" flag in classic levels (moved to single sets)
242 * updated SDL library DLLs for Windows to the latest release versions
243 (this fixed some mysterious crashes of the game on Windows systems)
244 * replaced EM and SP set in classic level set with native level files
245 * finally added a newly written "CREDITS" file to the game package
246 * removed sampled music loops from classic music set
249 * changed native Emerald Mine engine to support different viewport sizes
252 * changed native Supaplex engine to support different viewport sizes
255 * added initial, experimental support for different viewport properties
256 (with "viewports" being menu/playfield area and doors; currently the
257 size of the menu/playfield area and door positions can be redefined)
260 * added initial, experimental support for different window sizes
263 * added support for native Sokoban solution files in pure 'udlrUDLR'
264 format with extension ".sln" instead of ".tape" for solution tapes
267 * added image config suffix ".class" to be able to define classes of
268 crumbled elements which are then separated against each others when
269 drawing crumbled borders (class names can freely be defined)
270 (Example: "sand.CRUMBLED.class: sand" and "emc_grass.CRUMBLED.class:
271 emc_grass" results in sand and emc_grass being crumbled separately,
272 even if directly adjacent on the playfield.)
273 * added image config suffix ".style" to use two new features for
275 - "accurate_borders": try to draw correctly crumbled corners (which
276 means that a row of crumbled elements does not have two crumbled
277 corners for each element in the row, but only at the "real" corners
278 at the start and the end of the row of elements)
279 - "inner_corners": also draw inner corners in concave constructions
280 of several crumbled elements -- this is currently a big kludge: the
281 number of frames for crumbled graphic must be "2", with the first
282 frame as usual (crumbled graphic), while the second frame contains
283 the graphic with inner (crumbled) corners for the crumbled graphic
284 (These two features are mainly intended for bevelled walls, not for
285 diggable elements like sand; "inner_corners" only works reliably for
286 static walls, not for in-game dynamically changing walls using CEs.)
289 * finished code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
292 * started code cleanup of native Supaplex game engine
295 * integrated playing sound effects into native Supaplex game engine
298 * added configurable key shortcuts for the tape recorder buttons
301 * added (hidden) function to save native Supaplex levels with tape as
302 native *.sp file containing level with demo (saved with a file name
303 similar to native R'n'D levels, but with ".sp" extension instead of
304 ".level"); to use this functionality, enter ":save-native-level" or
305 ":snl" from the main menu with the native Supaplex level loaded and
306 the appropriate tape loaded to the tape recorder
307 * fixed potential crash bug caused by illegal array access in engine
308 snapshot loading and saving code
309 * changed setting permissions of score files to be world-writable if
310 the program is not installed and running setgid to allow the program
311 to modify existing score files when run as a different user (which
312 allows cheating, of course, as the score files are not protected
313 against modification in this case)
314 * added (commented out) suggestions for RO_GAME_DIR and RW_GAME_DIR to
315 the top level Makefile for Debian / Ubuntu installations
316 * added saving read-only levels from editor into personal level set
317 (thanks to Bela Lubkin for the above four patches)
320 * added updating of game values on the panel to Supaplex game engine
323 * finished integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
324 (although some animations do not support full customizability yet)
327 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Infotron.c"
328 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "OrangeDisk.c"
331 * integrated engine snapshot functionality into Supaplex game engine
334 * fixed bug in native Supaplex engine that broke several demo solutions
335 * fixed bug with re-initializing already existing elements in function
336 RelocatePlayer() in src/game.c (causing problems with Sokoban fields
337 counted a second time, making the currently playing level unsolvable)
338 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "SnikSnaks.c"
339 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Electrons.c"
340 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Zonk.c"
343 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "Murphy.c"
344 * done integrating R'n'D graphics engine into file "BugsTerminals.c"
347 * started integrating R'n'D graphics engine into Supaplex game engine
350 * added small kludge that allows transparent pushing animation over
351 non-black background (by using "game.use_masked_pushing: true")
352 * added editor flag to Sokoban field/object elements to automatically
353 finish solved Sokoban style levels (even if they contain non-Sokoban
354 elements, which prevents auto-enabling this feature for such levels)
357 * added new element "from_level_template" which is replaced by element
358 from level template at same playfield position when loaded (currently
359 not accessible from level editor, but only used for special Sokoban
360 level conversion when using "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces")
361 * added special behaviour for "special_flags: load_xsb_to_ces": global
362 settings of individual level files are overwritten by template level
363 (except playfield size, level name, level author and template flag)
366 * added handling of gravity ports when converting Supaplex style R'n'D
367 levels to native Supaplex levels for playing with Supaplex engine
370 * fixed bug in Supaplex engine regarding initial screen scroll position
373 * fixed EMC style pushing animations in the R'n'D graphics engine (when
374 using ".2nd_movement_tile" for animations having start and end tile)
375 * for this to work (look) properly for two-tile pushing animations with
376 non-black (i.e. opaque) background, the pushing graphics drawing order
377 was changed to first draw the pushed element, then the player (maybe
378 this should be controlled by an ".anim_mode" flag yet to be added)
379 * two-tile animations for moving or pushing should have 7 frames for
380 normal speed, 15 frames for half speed etc. to display correct frames
381 * two-tile animations are also displayed correctly with different speed
382 settings for the player (for pushing animations) or moving elements
385 * added searching for template level (file "template.level") not only
386 inside the level set directory, but also in above level directories;
387 this makes is possible to use the same single template level file
388 (placed in a level group directory) for many level sub-directories
391 * fixed bug with steel exit being destructible during opening phase
392 * added token "special_flags" to "levelinfo.conf" (currently with the
393 only recognized value "load_xsb_to_ces", doing the same as the flag
394 "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" on the command line, but as a permanent flag for
395 converting all elements in native (XSB) Sokoban level files to CEs)
398 * fixed some problems with Supaplex engine when compiling for Windows
401 * added special mode to convert elements of Sokoban XSB levels to CEs
402 by adding "-Dload_xsb_to_ces" to the command line starting the game
403 (also adding a dependency to a template level file "template.level")
406 * added reading native Sokoban levels and level packages (XSB files)
409 * fixed bugs in (auto)scrolling behaviour when passing ports or when
410 wrapping around the playfield through "holes" in the playfield border
413 * changed internal playfield bitmap handling from playfield sized bitmap
414 to screen sized bitmap (visible scrolling area), therefore speeding up
415 graphics operations (by eliminating bitmap updates in invisible areas)
416 and removing playfield size limitations due to increasing bitmap size
417 for larger playfield sizes (while the new implementation always uses
418 a fixed playfield bitmap size for arbitrary internal playfield sizes)
421 * fixed bug with single step mode (there were some cases where the game
422 did not automatically return to pause mode, e.g. when trying to push
423 things that cannot be pushed or when trying to run against a wall)
426 * added support for loading Supaplex levels in MPX level file format
429 * fixed SP engine to set "game over" not before lead out counter done
432 * fixed (potential) compile error when using GCC option "-std=gnu99"
433 (thanks to Tom "spot" Callaway)
436 * fixed array allocation in native Supaplex engine to correctly handle
437 preceding scratch buffers (needed because of missing border checking)
438 * fixed playfield initialization to correctly add raw header bytes as
439 subsequent scratch buffer (needed because of missing border checking)
442 * most important parts of native Supaplex engine integration working:
443 - native Supaplex levels can be played in native Supaplex engine
444 - native Supaplex level/demo files ("*.sp" files) can be re-played
445 - all 111 classic original Supaplex levels automatically solvable
446 - native Supaplex engine can be selected and used from level editor
447 - logic of re-playing Supaplex demos migrated to R'n'D tape logic
450 * fixed another translation problem from VisualBasic to C (where "int"
451 should be "short") causing unsolvable demos with bugs and terminals
452 ("bugs" being related to the Supaplex "buggy base" element here ;-) )
455 * fixed bug when reading Supaplex single level files (preventing loader
456 from seeking to level position like in Supaplex level package files)
459 * first classic Supaplex level running and solved by solution/demo tape
462 * started with integration of native Supaplex engine, using source code
463 of Megaplex from Frank Schindler, based on original Supaplex engine
466 * version number set to 3.2.6.2
469 * version 3.2.6.1 released
472 * fixed bug with element_info[e].gfx_element not being initialized in
473 early game stage, causing native graphics in EMC level sets to be
474 mapped completely to EL_EMPTY (causing a blank screen when playing)
475 (this only happened when starting the program with an EMC set with
476 native graphics, but not when switching to such a set at runtime)
479 * deactivated blit-to-same-surface workaround again (see 2009-03-24)
480 and using self-compiled, patched SDL.dll that solves this problem
481 (interim solution until release of SDL 1.2.14 that should fix this)
484 * extended backwards compatibility mode to allow already fixed bug with
485 change actions (see "2008-02-05") for existing levels (especially the
486 Zelda and Zelda II levels and other cool stuff by Alan Bond like FMV)
489 * reactivated workaround to prevent program crashes due to blitting to
490 the same SDL surface that apparently only occurs on Windows systems
491 (this is no final solution; this problem needs further investigation)
494 * version number set to 3.2.6.1
497 * version 3.2.6.0 released
500 * fixed behaviour of player option "no centering when relocating" which
501 was incorrect when disabled and relocation target inside visible area
502 and "no scrolling when relocating" enabled at the same time
505 * fixed problems with re-mapping players on playfield to input devices:
506 previously, players found on the level playfield were changed to the
507 players connected to input devices (for example, player 3 in the level
508 was changed to player 1 (using artwork of player 3, to be able to use
509 a player with a different color)); this had the disadvantage that CE
510 conditions using player elements did not work (because the players in
511 the level definition are different to those effectively used in-game);
512 the new system uses the same player elements as defined in the level
513 playfield and re-maps the input devices of connected players to the
514 corresponding player elements when playing the level (in the above
515 example, player 3 now really exists in the game and is moved using the
516 events from input device 1); level tapes still store the events from
517 input devices 1 to 4, which are then re-mapped to players accordingly
518 when re-playing the tape (just as it is done when playing the level)
521 * fixed bug with player relocation while the player switches an element
524 * fixed bug with EM/DC style exit and EM/DC style steel exit which was
525 not walkable (and did not let the player enter) when in process of
526 opening, but not fully open yet (which can cause the player not being
527 able to enter the exit in EM/DC style levels in time)
530 * fixed some bugs regarding the new level/CE random seed reset options
533 * moved "level settings" and "editor settings" to two tabbed screens in
534 level editor to gain space for additional level property settings
535 * added level setting to start a level with always the same random seed
536 * added CE action "set random seed" to re-initialize random seed in game
537 (this is the only CE action that gets executed before the CE changes,
538 which is needed to use the newly set random seed during the CE change)
541 * fixed redraw problem of special editor door when playing from editor
544 * fixed initialization of gfx_element for level sketch image creation
547 * added switch for EM style dynamite "[ ] explodes with chain reaction"
548 (with default set to "on" for existing levels, but "off" for all new
549 levels), as EM style dynamite does not chain-explode in original EM
552 * added optional initial inventory for players (pre-collected elements)
553 * added change page actions "set player inventory" and "set CE artwork"
554 * added recognition of "player" parameter on change pages when player
555 actions are defined, but no trigger player in corresponding condition
556 (this resulted in actions that only affected the first player before)
557 * fixed bug with change actions being executed for newly created custom
558 elements resulting from custom element changes, when the intention was
559 only to check for change actions for the previous custom element
562 * changed design and size of element drawing area in level editor
563 * added "element used as action parameter" to element change actions
566 * added possibility to reanimate player immediately after his death
567 (for example, by "change to <player> when explosion of <player>")
570 * fixed bug with "gray" white door not being uncovered by magnifier
571 * added score for collecting (any) key to the white key config page
574 * added condition "deadly when <getting hit by>" for custom elements
575 that behaves a bit like the existing "deadly when <colliding with>",
576 but with the following differences:
577 - it only kills players or friends when it was moving before it hits
578 - it does not kill players or friends that try to run into it
581 * fixed the following change conditions where a player element is used
582 as the "element that is triggering the custom element change":
585 - explosion of <element>
587 (the last two conditions already worked partially, but only for the
588 first player, and not for the "Murphy" player when using "move of")
591 * fixed crash bug caused by accessing invalid element (with value -1)
592 in UpdateGameControlValues()
593 * fixed graphical bug when using two-tile movement animations with EMC
594 game engine without explicitly using native EMC graphics engine
597 * fixed bug in new "can dig" feature (see below) so that an unsuccessful
598 try to push something (due to push delay) does not cause a dig action
601 * fixed bug with reference elements used as trigger elements on custom
602 element change pages not being recognized
603 * fixed bug with reference elements not being removed from the playfield
604 * added engine functionality that allows custom elements that "can dig"
605 other elements not only to do so when moving by themselves, but also
606 when being pushed by the player (therefore adding the functionality to
607 push one element over another element, replacing it with the new one)
610 * added command line function to write level sketch images to directory
613 * merged override and auto-override options into new override options
614 with a new data type than can take the values "no", "yes" and "auto"
617 * fixed growing steel wall to also leave behind steel wall instead of
618 normal, destructible wall
619 * fixed handling of rocks falling through stacks of quicksand with
620 different speed (before, the rocks just got stuck in the quicksand)
623 * fixed nasty bug with auto-override and normal override not working on
624 program startup (especially when current level set has custom artwork)
627 * version 3.2.5 released as special edition "R'n'D jue"
630 * fixed X11 crash bug when blitting masked title screens over background
633 * changed build system to support special editions (like "R'n'D jue")
634 * added (hardcoded) loading graphics for "R'n'D jue" special edition
635 * fixed X11 crash bug when scaling images with width/height less than 32
638 * added "background.PLAYING" (only visible as two-pixel border in game)
639 * added default level set for first start of special R'n'D version
640 * changed door animations for editor always behaving like "quick doors"
643 * added new custom artwork setup option "auto-override non-CE sets" for
644 automatic artwork override that is only used for level sets without
645 custom element artwork (as it does not make much sense to override
646 any artwork that redefines custom element artwork for sets using CEs)
647 * fixed default artwork for "special" R'n'D versions always using the
648 "classic" artwork as the base if base artwork is not explicitly
649 defined in "levelinfo.conf", regardless of different default artwork
650 used by the special R'n'D version -- this is needed because any such
651 custom artwork is designed using the "classic" artwork definitions as
652 the base (including menu definitions and screen positions etc., which
653 would otherwise be taken from the different special default artwork)
656 * fixed drawing of animated "quicksand.filling" and "quicksand.emptying"
657 for both EMC and R'n'D graphics engine (heavy workarounds needed due
658 to massively broken handling of quicksand in R'n'D game engine)
659 * fixed off-limits access to array in DrawLevelFieldCrumbledSandExt()
660 * fixed crash bug (hopefully) when scrolling with cursor keys in editor
663 * fixed small bug in toon drawing (introduced when fixing the crash bug)
666 * added graphics definition "game.panel.highscore" to display the
667 current levels current high score in the game panel
670 * version number set to 3.2.5
673 * version 3.2.4 released
676 * fixed crash bug in toon drawing functions for large step offset values
679 * fixed some problems with displaying game panel when quick-loading tape
682 * fixed (experimental only) redrawing of every tile per frame (even if
683 unneeded) for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
684 * added optimization to only calculate element count for panel display
685 if really needed (that is, if element count values defined on panel)
686 * fixed problem with special editor door redraw when entering main menu
689 * fixed bug with displaying background for title messages on info screen
690 * some code cleanup for the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
693 * fixed bug with CE action "move player" always resulting in player 4
694 if there was a CE action with no trigger player (because the player
695 element was calculated by using log_2() from trigger player bits with
696 the value PLAYER_BITS_ANY) -- this is now fixed by also storing the
697 triggering player bit mask and handling all players in "move player"
698 * fixed bug when defined artwork cannot be found for artwork that has
699 default artwork cloned from other artwork (without default filename)
700 * added several fixes to the extended (R'n'D based) EMC graphics engine
703 * fixed broken editor copy and paste for custom elements between levels
706 * title messages are now also searched in graphics artwork directory;
707 those found in graphics directory have precendence over those found
708 in level directory -- this handles title messages stored in graphics
709 directories as part of the artwork set, just like title images; this
710 makes sense, as corresponding special font definitions for messages
711 are usually defined in the same graphics artwork directory, and also
712 because title images and title messages that are combined in a level
713 set introduction should usually not be separated when the level set
714 is used with a different artwork set (e.g. using "override graphics")
715 * fixed problem with door borders on main screen by first drawing doors
716 and then the corresponding border masks, but not vice versa
717 * fixed problem with artwork config entries using the value "[DEFAULT]";
718 this does not what one might expect, but sets the value to an invalid
719 value -- solution: simply ignore such entries, which results in this
720 value keeping its previous (real) default value (in general, entries
721 that should use their default value should just not be defined here)
722 * fixed problem with wrong fading area size from main menu to setup menu
725 * fixed problem with broken crumbled graphics after level set changes
726 when using R'n'D custom artwork with level sets using the EMC engine
729 * fixed invisible "joysticks deactivated ..." text on setup input screen
732 * added use of hashes created from static lists (element tokens, image
733 config, font tokens) to speed up lookup of configuration parameters
734 * fixed bug where element and graphic config token lookup was mixed up
737 * added "busy" animation when initializing program and loading artwork
738 * added initialization profiling for program startup (debugging only)
741 * fixed(?) very strange bug apparently triggered by memset() when code
742 was cross-compiled with MinGW cross-compiler for Windows XP platform
743 (this only happened when using SDL.dll also self-compiled with MinGW)
746 * added graphics engine directive "border.draw_masked_when_fading" that
747 enables/disables drawing of border mask over screen that is just faded
750 * fixed small problem with separate fading definition for game screen
753 * added additional configuration directives for setup screen draw offset
754 menu.draw_xoffset.SETUP[XXX] and menu.draw_yoffset.SETUP[XXX] with XXX
755 in GAME, EDITOR, GRAPHICS, SOUND, ARTWORK, INPUT, SHORTCUTS_1,
756 SHORTCUTS_2, CHOOSE_ARTWORK, CHOOSE_OTHER (where "CHOOSE_ARTWORK" is
757 used to define draw offset on custom artwork selection screens and
758 "CHOOSE_OTHER" is used on all other list style selection screens, like
759 choosing game speed or screen mode for fullscreen mode)
760 * added additional configuration directives to define main menu buttons:
761 - menu.button_name and menu.button_name.active
762 - menu.button_levels and menu.button_levels.active
763 - menu.button_scores and menu.button_scores.active
764 - menu.button_editor and menu.button_editor.active
765 - menu.button_info and menu.button_info.active
766 - menu.button_game and menu.button_game.active
767 - menu.button_setup and menu.button_setup.active
768 - menu.button_quit and menu.button_quit.active
769 * added eight pure decoration graphic definitions for the game panel
772 * added support for accessing native Diamond Caves II level packages
773 * fixed displaying of game panel values for Emerald Mine game engine
774 * fixed displaying end-of-level time and score values on new game panel
777 * added game panel control to display arbitrary elements on game panel
778 * added game panel control to display custom element score (globally
779 unique for identical custom elements) either as value or as element
780 * added ".draw_masked" and ".draw_order" to game panel control drawing
783 * fixed some general bugs with handling of ".active" elements and fonts
786 * cleanup of game panel elements (some elements were not really needed)
787 * added displaying of gravity state (on/off) as new game panel control
788 * added animation for game panel elements (similar to game elements)
791 * added new pseudo game mode "PANEL" to define panel fonts and graphics
792 - panel fonts now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".PLAYING" suffix
793 - panel graphics now use ".PANEL" suffix instead of ".DOOR" suffix
794 (else graphics would have to use ".PLAYING", which would be confusing)
795 * fixed bug when fading out to game screen with border mask defined
798 * added attribute ".tile_size" for element style game panel controls
801 * added <space> key as additional valid key to use for confirm requester
804 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
805 and leaving a "content" screen (in general), and optional definitions
806 for the special "content" screens SCORES, EDITOR, INFO and PLAYING
809 * added (currently invisible) setup option to define scroll delay value
810 * fixed small bug in priority handling when auto-detecting level start
811 position in levels without player element (but player from CE etc.)
812 * added option "game.forced_scroll_delay_value" to override user choice
813 of scroll delay value for certain level sets with "graphicsinfo.conf"
814 * replaced setup option "scroll delay: on/off" by new setup option that
815 directly allows selecting the desired scroll delay value from 0 to 8
818 * added displaying of most game panel control elements (not animated)
821 * added new configuration directives to display additional game engine
822 values on the game control panel, like the following examples:
823 - game.panel.time_hh/time_mm/time_ss - level time in HH/MM/SS format
824 - game.panel.penguins - number of penguins to rescue
825 - game.panel.level_name - level name of current level
828 * added support for preview tile sizes "1" and "2" (1x1 and 2x2 pixels)
831 * added new player option "no centering when relocating" for "invisible"
832 teleportations to level areas that look exactly the same, giving the
833 illusion that the player did not relocate at all (this was the default
834 since 3.2.3, but caused visual problems with room creation in "Zelda")
835 * added new menu fading effect "melt", shamelessly stolen from "DOOM"
838 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for entering
839 and leaving a menu and for fading between menu and "content" screens
840 * fixed small bug with recognizing also ".font_xyz" style definitions
843 * improved menu fading, adding separate fading definitions for fading
844 between menu screens and fading between menu and "destination" screens
847 * titlemessage_initial_x and titlemessage_x set to "[DEFAULT]" in static
848 configuration (set from "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]")
849 * fading settings of "[titlemessage_initial]" and "[titlemessage]" set
850 to "[DEFAULT]" in static configuration (set from "[title_initial]" and
852 * improved title fading, allowing fading animation types "none", "fade"
853 and "crossfade" (including cross-fading of last title to main menu)
856 * added configurability of graphics, sounds and music for title screens,
857 which are separated into initial title screens (only shown once at
858 program startup) and title screens shown for a given level set; these
859 title screens can be composed of up to five title images and up to
860 five title text messages (each drawn using an optional background
861 image), also using background music and/or sounds; aspects like
862 background images, sounds and music of title screens can either be
863 defined generally (valid for all title screens) or specifically (and
864 therefore differently for each title screen) using these directives:
866 to define a background image, sound or music file for all screens:
867 - background.TITLE_INITIAL (for all title screens for game startup)
868 - background.TITLE (for all title screens for level sets)
870 to define a background image, sound or music file for a single screen:
871 - background.titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
872 - background.titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
873 - background.titlemessage_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
874 - background.titlemessage_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
876 to define the title screen images:
877 - titlescreen_initial_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
878 - titlescreen_x (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
880 to define the title text messages, place text files into the level set
881 directory that have the following file names:
882 - titlemessage_initial_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
883 - titlemessage_x.txt (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
885 to define the properties of the text messages, either use directives
886 that affect all text messages:
887 - [titlemessage_initial].<suffix>
888 - [titlemessage].<suffix>
889 or use directives that affect single text messages:
890 - titlemessage_initial_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
891 - titlemessage_x.<suffix> (with x in 1,2,3,4,5)
893 valid values for <suffix> are the same as for readme.<suffix> below;
894 use ".sort_priority" (default: 0) to define an arbitrary order for
895 title images and title messages (which can therefore be mixed)
898 * added full configurability of "readme.txt" screen appearance:
899 - readme.x: <left position used with alignment>
900 - readme.y: <top position>
901 - readme.width: <maximim text width in pixels>
902 - readme.height: <maximum text height in pixels>
903 - readme.chars: <maximum number of chars per line>
904 - readme.lines: <maximum number of lines displayed>
905 - readme.align: left,center,right (default: center)
906 - readme.top: top,middle,bottom (default: top)
907 - readme.font: font name
908 - readme.autowrap: true,false (default: true)
909 - readme.centered: true,false (default: false)
910 - readme.parse_comments: true,false (default: true)
911 - readme.sort_priority: (not used here, but only for title screens)
912 when "readme.chars" and/or "readme.lines" is set to "-1" (this is the
913 default), they are automatically determined from "readme.width" and
914 "readme.height" accordingly; when they are not "-1", they have
915 precedence over "readme.width" and "readme.height"
916 * added internal ad-hoc config settings for displaying text files like
917 title messages or "readme.txt" style level set info files:
918 - .font: font name (default: readme.font)
919 - .autowrap: true,false (default: readme.autowrap)
920 - .centered: true,false (default: readme.centered)
921 - .parse_comments: true,false (default: readme.parse_comments)
922 (the leading '.' and the separating ':' are mandatory here); to use
923 these ad-hoc settings, they have to be written inside a comment, like
924 "# .autowrap: false" or "# .centered: true"; these settings then
925 override the above global settings (they can even be used more than
926 once, like "# .centered: true", then some text that should be drawn
927 centered, then "# .centered: false" to go back to non-centered text;
928 important note: after using "# .parse_comments: false", or when using
929 "readme.parse_comments: false", detecting and parsing comments inside
930 the file is disabled and comments are just printed like normal text;
931 also be aware that all automatic text size calculations are done with
932 the font defined in "readme.font", while using different fonts using
933 "# .font: <font>" inside the text file may cause unexpected results
936 * changed some numerical limits in the level editor from 255 to 999
939 * added option "system.sdl_videodriver" to select SDL video driver
940 * added output of SDL video and audio driver to "version info" page
943 * added group element drawing to IntelliDraw drawing functions
944 * fixed animation resetting problem again (last try broke Snake Bite)
945 * fixed diagonal scrolling in screen scrolling (last try broke Pac Man)
948 * added new (special) "include: <filename>" directive that works in all
949 configuration files (like "graphicsinfo.conf") and that has the same
950 effect as if that directive would be replaced with the content of the
951 specified file (this can be useful to split large configuration files
952 into several smaller ones and include them from one main file, or to
953 store configuration settings that always stay the same into a separate
954 file, while including it and only add those parts that really change)
957 * fixed minor bug (screen redraw of player tiles) in EMC graphics engine
960 * fixed bug in "InitMovingField()" where treating an integer array as
961 boolean caused wrong resetting of animations while elements are moving
962 * fixed problem with resetting animations when starting element change
965 * added sort priority for order of title screens and title messages
968 * changed end of game again: do not wait for the user to press a key
969 anymore, but directly ask/confirm tape saving and go to hall of fame
970 * re-enabled quitting of lost game by pressing space or return again
971 * added blanking of mouse pointer when displaying title screens
972 * added remaining menu draw offset definitions for info sub-screens
975 * added setup option to select game speed (from very slow to very fast)
976 * improved handling of title text messages (initial and for level set)
979 * added new options "auto-wrap" and "centered" for DC2 style envelopes
982 * fixed displaying and typing of player name when it is centered
983 * added special characters to be allowed for player name (not only A-Z)
986 * fixed blit in ScrollLevel() to same bitmap to not overlap anymore
987 (newer versions of the SDL library seem to not like this anymore)
990 * added code for configuration directives for control of game panel
993 * fixed small cosmetical bug with underlining property tabs in editor
996 * fixed small drawing bug in X11FadeRectangle
997 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
998 - EM/DC style exits that disappear after passing
999 - white key and gate (one white key needed for each white gate)
1000 - fake gate (there is no key to open/pass this kind of gate!)
1001 - extended magic wall which also handles pearls and crystals
1005 * changed maximum value for endless loop detection to a higher value
1006 (some levels really used very deep recursion without being endless)
1009 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1010 - growing steel walls
1011 - snappable land mine
1014 * added new elements for newly supported Diamond Caves II levels:
1015 - steel text elements
1018 * added level file loader for native Diamond Caves II levels
1021 * version number set to 3.2.4
1024 * version 3.2.3 released
1027 * fixed malloc/free bug when updating EMC artwork entries in level list
1028 * added workaround (warning and request to quit the current game) when
1029 changing elements cause endless recursion loop (which would otherwise
1030 freeze the game, causing a crash-like program exit on some systems)
1033 * fixed nasty string overflow bug when entering too long envelope text
1036 * added feedback sounds for menu navigation "menu.item.activating" and
1037 "menu.item.selecting" (for highlighting and executing menu entries)
1040 * improved "no scrolling when relocating" to also consider scroll delay
1041 (meaning that the player is not automatically centered in this case;
1042 this makes it possible to "invisibly" relocate the player to a region
1043 of the level playfield which looks the same as the old level region)
1044 * fixed bug with not recognizing "main.input.name.align" when active
1047 * fixed bug with displaying masked borders over title screens when
1048 screen fading is disabled
1051 * fixed infinite loop / crash bug when killing the player while having
1052 a CE with the setting "kill player X when explosion of <player X>"
1053 * added special editor graphic for "char_space" to distinguish it from
1054 "empty_space" when editing a level (in-game graphics still the same)
1057 * fixed nasty bug with initialization only done for the first player
1060 * small change to handle loading empty element/content list micro chunks
1063 * uploaded pre-release (test) version 3.2.3-0 binary and source code
1066 * some optimizations on startup speed by reducing initial text output
1069 * added caching of custom artwork information for faster startup times
1072 * fixed graphical bug when using fewer menu entries on level selection
1073 screen than usual (with "menu.list_size.LEVELS" directive)
1074 * fixed crash bug (Windows/SDL only) caused by BlitBitmap blitting from
1075 the backbuffer to the backbuffer by error (with identical rectangle)
1078 * fixed bug when displaying titlescreen with size less than element tile
1079 * fixed bug that caused elements with "change when digging <e>" event
1080 to change for _every_ digged element, not only those specified in <e>
1081 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when dropping element one
1082 tile over the player that can both fall down and smash players
1083 * fixed bug that caused impact style collision when element changed to
1084 falling/smashing element over the player immediately after movement
1087 * fixed bug that allowed making engine snapshots from the level editor
1090 * fixed bugs with player name and current level positions on main screen
1093 * added configuration directives for control of title screens:
1094 - "title.fade_delay" for fading time
1095 - "title.post_delay" for pause between screens (when not crossfading)
1096 - "title.auto_delay" to automatically continue after some time
1097 these settings can each be overridden by specifying them with titles:
1098 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1099 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.{fade_delay,post_delay,auto_delay}"
1100 fading mode can also be specified:
1101 - "titlescreen_initial_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1102 - "titlescreen_{1-5}.anim_mode: {fade,crossfade}
1103 default is using normal fading for menues and initial title screens,
1104 while using cross-fading for level set title screens
1105 * fixed bug with background not drawn in Hall of Fame after game was won
1108 * added configuration directives for the remaining main menu items
1111 * added additional configuration directives for info screen draw offset:
1112 menu.draw_{x,y}offset.INFO[{ELEMENTS,MUSIC,CREDITS,PROGRAM,LEVELSET}]
1113 * added additional configuration directives for preview info text
1114 * limited mouse wheel sensitive screen area to scrollable screen area
1117 * added highlighted menu text entries to menu navigation when selected
1120 * fixed bug that prevented player from correctly being created in the
1121 top left corner by a custom element change in a level without player
1122 * fixed bug that prevented player from being killed when indestructible,
1123 non-walkable element is placed on player position by extended change
1124 * added configurable menu button, text and input positions to main menu
1127 * added page fading effects for remaining info sub-screens
1128 * fixed small bug that caused some delays when answering door request
1131 * added directives "border.draw_masked.*" for menu/playfield area and
1132 door areas to display overlapping/masked borders from "global.border"
1135 * fixed bug with CE with move speed "not moving" not being animated
1136 * when changing player artwork by CE action, reset animation frame
1139 * fixed bug with not unmapping main menu screen gadgets on other screens
1140 * fixed bug with un-pausing a paused game by releasing still pressed key
1141 * fixed bug with not redrawing screen when toggling to/from fullscreen
1142 mode while fast reloading tape (without redrawing playfield contents)
1143 * fixed bug with quick-saving tape snapshot despite answering with "no"
1146 * version number set to 3.2.3
1149 * version 3.2.2 released
1152 * fixed bug with redrawing screen in fullscreen mode after quick tape
1153 reloading when using the EMC game engine
1154 * changed token names from "last_ce_[1-8]" to "prev_ce_[1-8]"
1157 * fixed bug in GameWon() when level contains no exit (like in Sokoban)
1160 * added engine snapshot functionality for instant tape reloading (this
1161 only works for the last tape saved using "quick save", and does not
1162 work across program restarts, because it completely works in memory)
1165 * version number set to 3.2.2
1168 * version 3.2.1 released
1171 * fixed nasty bugs with handling error message file on Mac OS X systems
1174 * general code cleanup (removing many annoying "#if 0" blocks etc.)
1177 * fixed bug that caused broken tapes when manually appending to tapes
1178 using the "pause before death" functionality, followed by recording
1179 * added setup option to disable fading of screens for faster testing
1182 * code cleanup of new fading functions
1185 * changed behaviour after solved game -- do not immediately stop engine
1186 * added some more smooth screen fadings (game start, hall of fame etc.)
1189 * fixed bug with displaying pushed CE with value/score/delay anim_mode
1192 * added configurable level preview position, tile size and dimensions
1193 * added configurable game panel value positions (gems, time, score etc.)
1196 * fixed small bug with time displayed incorrectly when collecting CEs
1199 * fixed bug with bumpy scrolling with EM engine in double player mode
1202 * added compatibility code to fix "Snake Bite" style levels that were
1203 broken due to a bugfix regarding EL_SOKOBAN_FIELD_PLAYER in 3.2.0
1206 * fixed bug with scrollbars inside editor when using the Windows mouse
1207 enhancement tool "True X-Mouse" (which injects key events to the event
1208 queue to insert selected stuff into the Windows clipboard, which gets
1209 confused with the "Insert" key for jumping to the last editor cascade
1210 block in the element list)
1211 * added Rocks'n'Diamonds icon for use as window icon to SDL version
1212 * added key shortcut "Alt + Enter" to toggle fullscreen mode at any time
1215 * added selection of preferred fullscreen mode to setup / graphics menu
1216 (useful if default mode 800 x 600 does not match screen aspect ratio)
1219 * improved down-scaling of images for better editor and preview graphics
1220 * changed user data directory for Mac OS X from Unix style to new place
1223 * improved level number selection in main menu and player selection in
1224 setup menu (input devices section) by using standard button gadgets
1225 * added support for mouse scroll wheel (caused buggy behaviour before)
1226 * added support for scrolling horizontal scrollbars with mouse wheel by
1227 holding "Shift" key pressed while scrolling the wheel
1228 * added support for single step mouse wheel scrolling by holding "Alt"
1229 key pressed while scrolling the wheel (can be combined with "Shift")
1230 * changed output file "stderr.txt" on Windows platform now always to be
1231 created in the R'n'D sub-directory of the personal documents directory
1232 * added Windows message box to direct to "stderr.txt" after error aborts
1235 * improved general scrollbar handling (when jump-scrolling scrollbars)
1238 * changed scrollbars to always show last line as first after scrolling
1239 (that means jumping n - 1 screen lines instead of n screen lines)
1242 * fixed level versions of EMC level loader (from V4 to V1, V2 and V3)
1243 * fixed level time for EMC levels for V2 engine (V2 and V5 levels)
1244 * fixed special handling of vertically stacked acid becoming fake acid
1247 * fixed bug (very special case) with CE_SCORE_GETS_ZERO, which can
1248 affect multiple instances of the same CE, although this kind of
1249 change condition usually only affects one single custom element
1252 * version number set to 3.2.1
1255 * version 3.2.0 released
1258 * reorganized level editor element list a bit to match engines better
1261 * fixed newly introduced bug with wrongly initializing clipboard element
1264 * fixed bug with displaying visible/invisible level border in editor
1267 * reorganized some elements in the level editor element list
1270 * fixed bug with displaying any player as "yellow" when moving into acid
1271 * fixed bug with displaying running player when player stopped at border
1274 * fixed bug with player exploding when moving into acid
1275 * fixed bug with level settings being reset in editor and when playing
1276 (some compatibility settings being set not only after level loading)
1277 * fixed crash bug when number of custom graphic frames was set to zero
1278 * fixed bug with teleporting player on walkable tile not working anymore
1279 * added partial compatibility support for pre-release-only "CONF" chunk
1280 (to make Alan Bond's "color cycle" demo work again :-) )
1283 * fixed some bugs when displaying title screens from info screen menu
1284 * fixed bug which caused EMC doors #5 to #8 to be passable without keys
1287 * changed file major version to 3 to reflect level file format changes
1288 * uploaded pre-release (test) version 3.2.0-8 binary and source code
1291 * added new chunk "NAME" to level file format for level name settings
1292 * added new chunk "NOTE" to level file format for envelope settings
1293 * changed name of chunk "CONF" to "ELEM" (for normal element settings)
1294 * updated magic(5) file to recognize changed and new level file chunks
1295 * removed change events "change when CE value/score changes" as unneeded
1298 * changed gravity (which only affects the player) from level property
1299 to player property (only makes a difference in multi-player levels)
1300 * added change events "change when CE value/score changes"
1301 * added change events "change when CE value/score changes of <element>"
1304 * added new chunk "INFO" to level file format for global level settings
1305 * added all element settings from "HEAD" chunk to "CONF" chunk
1306 * added all global level settings from "HEAD" chunk to "INFO" chunk
1309 * changed level file format by adding two new chunks "CUSX" (for custom
1310 elements, replacing the previous "CUS4" chunk) and "GRPX" (for group
1311 elements, replacing the previous "GRP1" chunk); these new IFF style
1312 chunks use the new and flexible "micro chunks inside chunks" technique
1313 already used with the new "CONF" chunk (for normal element properties)
1314 which makes it possible to easily extend the existing level format
1315 (instead of using fixed-length chunks like before, which are either
1316 too big due to reserved bytes for future use, or too small when those
1317 reserved bytes have all been used and even more data should be stored,
1318 requiring the replacement by new and larger chunks just like it went
1319 with "CUS1" to "CUS4"); this whole problem now does not exist anymore
1322 * added credits pages to the "credits" section that were really missing
1323 * added some missing element descriptions to the level editor
1324 * added down position of switchgate switch to the level editor
1325 and allowed the use of both switch positions at the same time
1326 * changed use of "Insert" and "Delete" keys to navigate element list in
1327 level editor to start of previous or next cascading block of elements
1330 * added the possibility to view the title screen to the info screen menu
1331 * fixed some minor bugs with viewing title screens
1334 * fixed bug with title (cross)fading in/out when using fullscreen mode
1337 * fixed bug that forced re-defining of menu settings in local graphics
1338 config file which are already defined in existing base config file
1339 * fixed small bug that caused door sounds playing when music is enabled
1342 * added the possibility to define up to five title screens for each
1343 level set that are displayed after loading using (cross)fading in/out
1344 (this was added to display the various start images of the EMC sets)
1347 * added "CE score gets zero [of]" to custom element trigger conditions

2272 * unavailable setup options now marked as "n/a" instead of "off"
2273 * new boolean directive "latest_engine" for "levelinfo.conf": when set
2274 to "true", levels are always played with the latest game engine,
2275 which is desired for levels that are imported from other games; all
2276 other levels are played with the engine version stored in level file
2277 (which is normally the engine version the level was created with)

2399 * changed all "classic" PCX image files with 16 colors or less to
2400 256 color (8 bit) storage format, because the Allegro game library
2401 cannot handle PCX files with less than 256 colors (contributed
2402 graphics are not affected and might look wrong in the DOS version)
2404 2003-08-16 src/init.c
2405 * fixed bug which (for example) crashed the level editor when defining
2406 "dynamite.EDITOR: [NONE]", because graphics may not be undefined
2407 (only set to default) -- invalid graphics now set to default graphic
2409 2003-08-16 src/init.c
2410 * fixed graphical bug of player digging/collecting/snapping element
2411 when no corresponding graphic/animation is defined for this action,
2412 resulting in player being drawn as EL_EMPTY (which should only be
2413 done to elements being collected, but not to the player)
2415 2003-08-16 src/game.c
2416 * fixed small graphical bug of player not totally moving into exit
2418 2003-08-16 src/libgame/setup.c

2440 * fixed bug with missing graphic for active red disk bomb
2442 2003-08-07 src/files.c, src/editor.c src/game.c, src/main.h
2443 * extended variable "level.gravity" to "level.initial_gravity" and
2444 "game.current_gravity" to prevent level setting from being changed
2445 by playing the level (keeping the runtime value after playing)
2447 * fixed graphics bug when digging element that has 'crumbled' graphic
2448 definition, but not 'diggable' graphic definition
2451 * version number set to 3.0.1

2465 * I have forgotten to document changes for some time
2468 * pre-release version 2.2.0rc1 released
2470 2002-08-25 src/libgame/setup.c, src/libgame/sound.c
2471 * Level series artwork now configurable via level series config file.
2472 "levelinfo.conf" may now contain directives "graphics_set",
2473 "sounds_set" and "music_set" to select artwork sets which are
2474 globally defined or which are included into other level series.
2477 * version number set to 2.1.2
2480 * version 2.1.1 released
2482 2002-08-10 src/libgame/system.h
2483 * Default "snap" and "bomb" keys for Mac OS X set to left control key
2484 and keypad enter key -- Macs seem not to distinguish between left
2485 and right modifier keys (both generate scan code for left key). :-(
2487 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2488 * Fixed small NetBSD compilation bug.
2489 Thanks to Adam Ciarcinski for the bug report.
2491 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2492 * Added support for audio device "/dev/sound/dsp" (devfs).
2493 Thanks to Christoph Bauer for the corresponding report.
2495 2002-08-10 src/libgame/sound.c
2496 * Bug fixed that caused regular crashes under SDL/Windows version.
2497 Mixer_InsertSound(): Always stop music before playing new music,
2498 else "mixer_active_channels" can get fucked up.
2499 Thanks to Keith Peterston for the bug report.
2502 * version number set to 2.1.1
2505 * version 2.1.0 released
2507 2002-05-31 src/libgame/image.c
2508 * Read_PCX_to_Pixmap(): Fixed bad memory leak by freeing "ximageinfo"
2509 and "image" after converting loaded PCX image file to X11 Pixmap.
2510 This really showed up when reloading custom artwork several times.
2512 2002-05-20 src/libgame/sound.c
2513 * added support for 16 bit WAV sound files
2516 * version number set to 2.1.0
2518 2002-04-03 to 2002-05-19 (various source files)
2519 * graphics, sounds and music now fully configurable
2520 * bug fixed that prevented walking through tubes when gravity on
2521 * added support for TrueColor PCX graphics files
2522 * enhanced sound system (especially regarding stereo and loop sounds)
2524 2002-04-02 src/events.c, src/editor.c
2525 * Make Escape key less aggressive when playing or when editing level.
2526 This can be configured as an option in the setup menu. (Default is
2527 "less aggressive" which means "ask user if something can be lost"
2528 when pressing the Escape key.)
2530 2002-04-02 src/screen.c
2531 * Added "graphics setup" screen.
2533 2002-04-01 src/screen.c
2534 * Changed "choose level" setup screen stuff to be more generic (to
2535 make it easier to add more "choose from generic tree" setup screens).
2537 2002-04-01 src/config.c, src/timestamp.h
2538 * Added source files "src/config.[ch]" and "src/timestamp.h" (which
2539 automatically gets created by "src/Makefile" and contains an actual
2540 compile-time timestamp to identify development versions of the game).
2542 2002-04-01 src/libgame/misc.c
2543 * Added (currently incomplete) function "getKeyFromKeyName()" simply
2544 for orthogonality. When really needed, this function must be
2545 extended accordingly (analog to "getKeyFromX11KeyName()").
2547 2002-04-01 src/libgame/setup.c
2548 * Changed setup "TYPE_KEY" (internal, X11 style key symbol name) to
2549 "TYPE_KEY_X11" and added "TYPE_KEY" (human readable key symbol name).
2550 (This was needed for custom key setup handling in "src/screens.c".)
2552 2002-03-31 src/tape.c, src/events.c
2553 * Added quick game/tape save/load functions to tape stuff which can be
2554 invoked by a keyboard shortcut. Default: "F1" saves game/tape, "F2"
2555 loads previously recorded tape and directly goes into recording mode
2556 from the end of the tape (therefore appending to the tape).
2558 2002-03-31 src/tape.c
2559 * Added "index mark" function to tape recorder. When playing or
2560 recording, "eject" button changes to "index" button. Setting index
2561 mark is not yet implemented, but pressing index button when playing
2562 allows very quick advancing to end of tape (when normal playing),
2563 very fast forward mode (when playing with normal fast forward) or
2564 very fast reaching of "pause before end of tape" (when playing with
2565 "pause before end" playing mode).
2567 2002-03-30 src/cartoons.c
2568 * Moved some stuff from cartoons.c to the new "src/libgame/toons.c".
2570 2002-03-30 src/libgame/toons.c
2571 * New libgame source file "toons.c" for the program independant part
2574 2002-03-29 src/screen.c
2575 * Changed setup screen stuff to be more generic (to make it easier
2576 to add more setup screens).
2578 2002-03-29 src/libgame/setup.c
2579 * Changed "LoadLevelInfoFromLevelDir()" so that not only directories
2580 with level sub-directories are recognized, but also directories
2581 that directly contain level files.
2583 2002-03-29 src/libgame/sound.c
2584 * Changed "boolean stereo = TRUE;" to "static boolean stereo = TRUE;".
2585 (This was a bug that showed up only when in mono audio mode.)
2587 2002-03-24 src/libgame/x11.c, src/libgame/sdl.c, src/libgame/image.c
2588 * Changed image loading code to not exit on error, but set error by
2589 using "SetError()" accordingly. Image loading errors must now be
2590 catched by above layers (src/init.c for example).
2592 2002-03-24 src/libgame/misc.c
2593 * New functions "SetError()" and "GetError()" to provide more
2594 flexible error handling.
2596 2002-03-23 src/main.c, src/main.h
2597 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new libgame files
2598 "setup.c" and "joystick.c".
2600 2002-03-23 src/files.c
2601 * Generic parts of "src/files.c" (mainly setup and level directory
2602 stuff) moved to new libgame file "src/libgame/setup.c".
2604 2002-03-23 src/joystick.c
2605 * File "src/joystick.c" moved to libgame source tree, with
2606 correspondig changes.
2608 2002-03-23 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/system.h
2609 * Various changes due to the introduction of the new files "setup.c"
2612 2002-03-23 src/libgame/setup.c
2613 * New libgame source file "setup.c" that contains now most setup and
2614 level directory stuff previously handled in "src/files.c".
2616 2002-03-23 src/libgame/joystick.c
2617 * New libgame source file "joystick.c" that contains now all joystick
2618 stuff previously handled in "src/joystick.c" of "Rocks'n'Diamonds".
2620 2002-03-22 src/screens.c
2621 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Another bug in level series navigation fixed.
2622 (Wrong level series information displayed when entering main group.)
2624 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2625 * Slight change to support new gadget event "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING".
2627 2002-03-22 src/editor.c
2628 * Changed behaviour of "Escape" key in level editor to be more
2629 intuitive: When in "Element Properties" or "Level Info" mode,
2630 return to "Drawing Mode" instead of leaving the level editor.
2632 2002-03-22 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/sound.c
2633 * Added command line option "-s" / "--sounds" and "-m" / "--music"
2634 to specify alternative sound and music directories. (The former
2635 shortcut "-s" for "--serveronly" has changed accordingly.)
2637 2002-03-22 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2638 * Added new gadget events for displaying gadget info texts:
2639 "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING" and "GD_EVENT_INFO_LEAVING". Before,
2640 the info text callback function was only called when entering
2641 a gadget (implicit "GD_EVENT_INFO_ENTERING"). But the info text
2642 was never erased. This can now be done by checking the event type
2643 in the info callback function.
2645 2002-03-21 src/game.c, src/editor.c, src/files.c
2646 * 2.0.1 introduced the corrected "Emerald Mine" style behaviour of
2647 gems (emeralds, diamonds, ...) slipping down from normal wall,
2648 steel wall and growing wall (as in E.M.C. style levels). Although
2649 the behaviour of contributed and private levels wasn't changed (due
2650 to the use of "level.game_version"; see previous entry), editing
2651 those levels will (of course) change the behaviour accordingly.
2653 This change seems a bit too hard after thinking about it, because
2654 the EM style behaviour is not the "expected" behaviour (gems would
2655 normally only slip down from "rounded" walls). Therefore this was
2656 now changed to an element property for gem style elements, with the
2657 default setting "off" (which means: no special EM style behaviour).
2658 To fix older converted levels, this flag is set to "on" for pre-2.0
2659 levels that are neither contributed nor private levels.
2661 2002-03-20 src/files.h
2662 * Corrected settings for "level.game_version" depending of level type.
2663 (Contributed and private levels always get played with game engine
2664 version they were created with, while converted levels always get
2665 played with the most recent version of the game engine, to let new
2666 corrections of the emulation behaviour take effect.)
2668 2002-03-20 src/main.h
2669 * Added "#include <time.h>". This seems to be needed by "tape.c" for
2670 compiling the SDL version on some systems.
2671 Thanks to the several people who pointed this out.
2673 2002-03-20 src/libgame/gadgets.c
2674 * "va_arg(ap, boolean)" changed to "(boolean)va_arg(ap, int)";
2675 this caused problems especially on PowerPC architecture (although
2676 it is wrong on i386 and other architectures, too)
2678 2002-03-20 src/libgame/pcx.c, src/libgame/image.c
2679 * Added support for loading and displaying true-color PCX files.
2681 2002-03-20 src/libgame/misc.c, src/libgame/x11.c
2682 * Added command line option "-g" / "--graphics" to specify an
2683 alternative graphics directory.
2686 * Version number set to 2.0.2.
2689 * Version 2.0.1 released.
2691 2002-03-19 src/libgame/system.c, src/libgame/sdl.c [src/tools.c]
2692 * Moved function "GetPixel()" from src/tools.c ("Mirror Magic" code)
2693 to libgame source files; needed for SDL fullscreen bug workaround
2696 2002-03-18 src/screens.c
2697 * "HandleChooseLevel()": Small bug in level series navigation fixed.
2699 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2700 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2702 2002-03-18 src/files.c [src/libgame/misc.c]
2703 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2704 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2705 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2707 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2708 * Moved some common functions from src/files.c to src/libgame/misc.c.
2710 2002-03-18 src/libgame/misc.c [src/files.c]
2711 * Changed permissions for new directories and saved files (especially
2712 score files) according to suggestions of Debian users and mantainers.
2713 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2715 2002-03-17 src/files.c
2716 * Changed "{Load|Save}{Level|Tape}()" to IFF style file format:
2717 Replaced "cookie" header string ("ROCKSNDIAMONDS_...\n") with
2718 real IFF style header "RND1....XXXX" (where "XXXX" is "CAVE"
2719 for levels and "TAPE" for tapes). Old "cookie" style format is
2720 still supported for reading. New level and tape files are written
2723 * New IFF chunk "VERS" contains version numbers for file and game
2724 (where "game version" is the version of the program that wrote the
2725 file, and "file version" is a version number to distinguish files
2726 with different format, for example after adding new features).
2728 2002-03-17 src/libgame/sound.c
2729 * Bug in "StopMusic()" fixed: SDL_mixer functions may be called
2730 even when sound not available.
2731 Thanks to Drew Parsons <dparsons@emerall.com> for the patch.
2733 2002-03-15 src/screen.c
2734 * "DrawHallOfFame()": "FadeSounds()" when entering the hall of fame.
2735 (Before, you heard a mixture of the in-game music and the
2736 hall-of-fame music.)
2738 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sound.c, src/libgame/platform.h
2739 * Added /dev/dsp (streaming audio) support for NetBSD (instead of the
2740 /dev/audio (ulaw) based Unix audio interface).
2741 Thanks to Krister Walfridsson <cato@df.lth.se> for the patches.
2743 2002-03-15 src/libgame/sdl.c
2744 * Workaround for fullscreen bug in WIN32 version of SDL (at least
2745 in the currently actual version 1.2.3) by using "standard" screen
2746 resolutions like 800x600 and mapping all input (mouse events) and
2747 output (screen drawing) accordingly.
2749 2002-03-14 src/events.c
2750 * Function "DumpTape()" (files.c) now available by pressing 't' from
2751 main menu (when in DEBUG mode).
2753 2002-03-14 src/game.c
2754 * "GameWon()": When game was won playing a tape, now there is no delay
2755 raising the score and no corresponding sound is played.
2757 2002-03-14 src/files.c
2758 * Changed "LoadTape()" for real chunk support and also adjusted
2759 "SaveTape()" accordingly.
2761 2002-03-14 src/game.c, src/tape.c, src/files.c
2762 * Important changes to tape format: The old tape format stored all
2763 actions with a real effect with a corresponding delay between the
2764 stored actions. This had some major disadvantages (for example,
2765 push delays had to be ignored, pressing a button for some seconds
2766 mutated to several single button presses because of the non-action
2767 delays between two action frames etc.). The new tape format just
2768 stupidly records all device actions and replays them later. I really
2769 don't know why I haven't solved it that way before?! Old-style tapes
2770 (with tape file version less than 2.0) get converted to the new
2771 format on-the-fly when loading and can therefore still be played;
2772 only some minor parts of the old-style tape handling code was needed.
2773 (A perfect conversion is not possible, because there is information
2774 missing about the device actions between two action frames.)
2776 2002-03-14 src/files.c
2777 * New function "DumpTape()" to dump the contents of the current tape
2778 in a human readable format.
2780 2002-03-14 src/game.c
2781 * Small tape bug fixed: When automatically advancing to next level
2782 after a game was won, the tape from the previous level still was
2783 loaded as a tape for the new level.
2785 2002-03-14 src/tape.c
2786 * Small graphical bug fixed: When pressing ""Record" or "Play" on
2787 tape, cartoons did not get completely removed because
2788 StopAnimation() was not called.
2790 2002-03-13 src/files.c
2791 * Changed "LoadLevel()" and "SaveLevel()" to add new chunk "CNT2".
2792 Fixed bug of "CONT" and "BODY" (chunk size was set to 8-bit element
2793 size even when using 16-bit elements). Added new chunk "CNT2" for
2794 16-bit amoeba content (previously written in 8-bit field in "HEAD"
2795 chunk even when content was 16-bit element). "CNT2" should now be
2796 able to store content for arbitrary elements (up to eight blocks of
2797 3 x 3 element arrays). All "CNT2" elements will always be stored as
2798 16-bit elements. "CONT" (with 8/16-bit elements) now obsolete.
2800 2002-03-13 src/files.c
2801 * Changed "LoadLevel()" for real chunk support.
2803 2002-03-12 src/game.c
2804 * Fixed problem (introduced after 2.0.0 release) with penguins
2805 not getting killed by enemies
2807 2002-02-28 src/libgame/sound.c
2808 * Fixed small problem with new SDL_Mixer 1.2.1:
2809 Mix_VolumeMusic() must be called _after_ Mix_PlayMusic(),
2810 or it has no effect.
2812 2002-02-24 src/game.c, src/main.h
2813 * Added "player->is_moving"; now "player->last_move_dir" does
2814 not contain any information if the player is just moving at
2816 Before, "player->last_move_dir" was misused for this purpose
2817 for the robot stuff (robots don't kill players when they are
2818 moving). But setting "player->last_move_dir" to MV_NO_MOVING
2819 broke tapes when walking through pipes!
2820 ("IS_MOVING()" uses "MovPos[][]", but this fails when it is 0
2821 in a continuous movement. This fact is ignored for friends and
