[Enigma-devel] Enigma 1.10 Pre Alpha - Revision 2089

[Ronald Lamprecht]

Hi,

We reached pre alpha of the upcoming 1.10 release! It is revision 2089 
on our svn development trunk! It is a release for level authors and testers.

Since milestone 5 we did fix all known issues with the new API, did 
vastly improve the graphic images, especially concerning the support of 
large and small screen resolutions. The new Sokoban library is ready and 
supplied with 3 levelpacks for test feedback. Levels scores that have 
been played with Enigma 0.92 or earlier will now be marked by a yellow 
warning triangle, as these scores will be invalidated in future. It is 
time to replay these levels with a more reliable current version of 
Enigma. Furtheron the support for Mac and Windows has been updated and 
improved.

I uploaded a Windows compilation:

Even though this release is called pre alpha it is expected to be very 
stable. Please report any remaining problems and inconsistencies.

And what is still missing? Not much :-) The main point is the completion 
of an update feature that will allow us to distribute level updates 
without a release of a complete new Enigma release. Of course there are 
further release specific tasks as an update of the user manual, 
translations, etc.

Level authors may please check the included versions of their levels. We 
still have a large amount of untested or unfinished levels in queue. If 
you like to have one or two levels of special interest being added to 
the official release, please drop a note. The remaining levels will be 
distributed after the release with the update feature.

Greets,

Ronald
