Translating PGE Project into other languages

Hello!

Small news for everyone:

Some days ago I have set up the WebLate platform which a system to work with translations. That means, everyone can contribute translations for PGE components easily and with less effort!

Here is a profile of PGE Project on WebLate: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/pge-project/
To start work on translation, log in into WebLate (or register an account if needed) and feel free to translate! You can work together with friends and other folks on the same language to make the work go faster and easier rather than doing everything alone!

A delayed announcement of PGE update: PGE Editor 0.3.1.15 and PGE Engine 0.3.1-alpha

Hello!

Greetings everyone! Sorry for the long delay in announcements related to the PGE toolchain. I still mostly work on most of PGE intensely when I can despite having issues with finding free time to do so. For the time being, I am going to to showcase changes and improvements I have made to PGE components for two years.

Hotfix for GIFs2PNG (A component of PGE Project)

Hello, everybody!

Important news, please read!

Recently we found a massive bug in Version 3.0 (older versions aren't affected) of the GIFs2PNG tool: When trying to convert images using a config pack and having the "-r" flag (remove source images) set, GIFs2PNG would also remove masks from the config pack!

We have updated the PGE Project builds to update GIFs2PNG to Version 3.0.1 which fixes this bug!

The next update to the PGE Project will come soon after we complete a lot of work on the engine application. The editor is preparing for a big reorganising and will have many new features!

See you soon! collected_wink.gif

Happy New Year!

Hello, everybody!

This was a very busy year: We were overloaded with various side jobs, we had a lot of surprises, some good, some bad. Although many bad things happened this year, we think that everyone has at least something archived this year. Each of us and everyone as a community.

Happy New Year, our dear friends! We wish you good luck in this year, and many more good moments, and more surprises!

LunaLua v0.7.3.1 is finally released

This version provides an ability to natively run level testing from PGE Editor's call with an ability to quickly restart a level with sending latest in-editor changes, reset checkpoints, toggle playable character, etc.

Here is the changelog:

  • Added non-ASCII paths support! (LunaLUA-SMBX's root finally can be placed into a path with non-ASCII characters. But limit is: don't mix codepages (example: both Russian and Chinese characters in a path, or you will get VB Error "File not found". Same happens on Vanilla SMBX if you have been used non-local characters.))
  • Added a test-mode system which can be controlled by LunaTester inside Windows version of PGE Editor.
  • Added Graphics.getBits32 function which is a fast way to access the bits of an image resource
  • glDraw can draw with scene coordinates (sceneCoords=true as named arg)
  • Added CaptureBuffer class which allows capturing the screen at a specific render priority
  • The max id of Blocks has been increased to 700
  • Added lunabase.lua to LuaScriptsLib which is a global user script file.
  • Overworld sprite can be patched at runtime
  • Added Misc.registerCharacterId which allows registering new characters
  • Added Misc.resolveGraphicsFile which only resolves a file from a custom folder, episode folder or the graphics folder from SMBX.
  • Added Graphics.loadImageResolved which is a handy combination of Graphics.loadImage and Misc.resolveGraphicsFile, with a useful error message if it can't find anything.
  • Added PlayingSfxInstance class which represents a sound
  • Added some new defines
  • Enhanced profile.lua to be useful. Usable by hitting F3 to start and F3 to finish.
  • Add force_disable_fullscreen option to luna.ini because the smbx fullscreen is acting up for some
  • Add Player.getIntersecting

PGE Update (Editor 0.3.1.11, Engine 0.2.6-alpha)

This is a big update for the PGE Project, which contains a reorganizing of the config pack management system and lot of other bug fixes. Configure tools in the config packs like "SMBX Integration" now are working with JavaScript, which allows them be platform-independent and more secure! The PGE Engine got a huge improvement recently and now has an upgraded physical engine which fixes most of the bugs with slopes and with moving blocks (however, there is still improvement for layer move system to be made)!
More detail info in the change logs!

Small and good news for users with portable packages (.ZIP): settings will no longer be lost when you are doing an update, because all settings will be saved into the new-created "settings" folder, which will never be replaced on an update with a ZIP-Package!

A big update is done for the OS X users, which will be able associate LVL/WLD/LVLX/WLDX-files with PGE Editor and PGE Engine by simple placing the PGE Project-folder into the "Applications" directory. In addition many other fixes were made, including the fix for interprocess testing!

All downloads are have been updated!

Note: Old config packs are no more compatible with this version, and lot of glitches are possible with them. Therefore, you must download the new config packs from a main page.

In next time I'll release updates more often ;-)

PGE Update (Editor 0.3.1.10, Engine 0.2.5.1-alpha)

Sorry for taking too long for a new update :P This update contains internal optimizations and very important improvements and bug fixes.

Direct level testing in the SMBX Engine from PGE Editor is finally possible without pre-launching the legacy editor. PGE Engine finally supports backup module with OpenGL 2 to allow support for PGE Engine on older hardwares, finally implemented support for non-power-of-two textures on video cards which support power-of-two textures only. BGO order in PGE Editor finally got fixed (after some research, we extracted all BGO order priorities for all BGOs), so troubles with missmatched order of BGOs in comparison to old SMBX Engine is finally resolved. Also, PGE File Library can finally read and write SMBX 1.4 (SMBX-38A) level files (though support for SMBX 1.4 world map files isn't implemented yet).
