Patch Notes

Build r1153_v0.84 has been released

Hi all,

A new build of TY has been released. Along with a few small fixes, there are some bonus goodies in this build for you all! The quality of these isn't necessarily the best, as we're using videos that we made 15 years ago (video compression has come a LOOOONG way!), but hopefully they provide some enjoyment.

Changes in this build:

BUG FIXES


  • CONTROLS - Fixed mouse input on second page of videos when switching pages or returning to the screen after watching a video.
  • GRAPHICS - fix render order for transparent TY - this allows invisible items to be seen through transparent TY.
  • GRAPHICS - fix for incorrect rendering on the Kaboomerang over water
  • UI - fix for edge artefacts on the "hovering over an UI element" mouse pointer
  • VIDEO - buffered the videos in smaller chunks, to fix out of memory issue hit by some users. Tested this on a 5400rpm external USB2 hard drive and the update rate still appeared fine.

BONUS GOODIES


  • Added in the original TY Krome Logo as a video in extras
  • Added in a video of the original TY prototypes from back in 2000; at the highest quality we have.
  • Added in a video of the first pitch that we did for TY in 2001, to the extras.
  • Added in a video of the second pitch (living world) that we did for TY in 2001, including visuals of the original first level of the game (that we remade in the last week before release!), to the extras.
  • Added in video of the E3 trailer we made for the game for 2002 to the extras.

Current plans are to continue to work on a couple of small items and look to full release in December.
Any problems, please let us know.

Cheers
Linds
