Welcome to AnimatED!
This is the second release of AnimatED. A lot of features has been
added to AnimatED since the previous version. Here's a list of what's
new in AnimatED version 1.2:
* AnimatED now supports animations with a different palette per
frame (as supported by DPaint and PPaint).
* Added support for Med-modules.
* Added the Load Script event.
* Combined the 'Attach Event' and 'Events' window.
* Renamed the events.
* Animations can now be played in a selectable display mode.
* Seperated the Tracker-Mask options from the Sound-event, which now
has become an event on it's own.
* AnimatED now uses it's own special font, based on Thinpaz/XEN.
* Changed the arrowbuttons into sliders for the Timing and Freeze
Frame events.
* Completely changed the Prefs window, splitting it into 3 different
pages.
* Added the Auto-save Prefs option to the Prefs window.
* Added the Refresh rate option to the Prefs window.
* Added the Single palette option to the Prefs window.
* Added the Add icon to script option to the Prefs window.
* Added File-requester buttons to the filepaths in the Prefs window.
* Added a palette editor for the GUI screen in the Prefs window
* AnimatED now remembers where the script was loaded from and gives
this directorypath + filename as default when saving the script.
* AnimatED and AnimatEDPlay will now, when a soundsample,
trackermodule or medmodule can't be loaded, try to play the
animation anyway.
* Completely changed the format in which AnimatED saves it's scripts.
This makes it easier for me to keep old scripts compatible with new
versions of AnimatED and vice versa.
* Coded the ScriptConverter utility to convert AnimatED 1.1 scripts
to the new format.
* Optimised the existing code a bit and removed some bugs.
* Added a nice background window...for which I borrowed the idea
from MainActor. ;)
* Created an Installer script using the standard Installer program.
Also read all about the animation competition (AnimComp.txt file,
which is included in the archive) organised by Dale Hemenway!
