Patch v7.7, download it now!

***Jamul*** · 08-11-2005, 08:42 AM

It's official at last. Supreme v7.7 is here, and you definitely must have it! The merge world may use some features from it.

Grab it at http://hamumu.com/patches.php as always!

Here's the full list of changes in v7.7:

Version 7.7
* Fixed a crash when merging worlds.
* Added "Equation" and "Var Equation" triggers. Warning: these use up the text slot of the accompanying effect! Cannot be paired with Message, Song, Show Pic/Movie, Set Variable, Monster Name effects (you can use them in the same special, but not in the same position)
* colorizing Bouapha now affects the color of the power armor and minisub.
* added "Player" as an option when choosing monsters in specials, refers to anybody with the AI of Bouapha
* Fixed player sometimes appearing behind minecarts he is riding
* You can now set the player's life to more than 128
* You can no longer (I think) be lifted into infinity by Super Zombies
* You are now immune to sucking effects if you are in the grip of a super zombie
* fixed minor problems in Icy Adventures and New World Disorder
* added Shft-I in the editor to create level_scan.txt and var_scan.txt, detailing all specials and badguys in the level (level_scan) and a detailed scan of uses of variables in the entire world (var_scan)
* replaced the "Get Latest News" button (since I almost never updated it) in the internet menu with 2 buttons to visit the High Score Page and the Add-Ons Page
* Changed a gallery goal and a locker
* Message effects that begin with "//" are not displayed and make no noise, so you can use them for comments
* Fixed some specials in Jungle Quest
* File menus in the editor now skip around as you type to make finding easier
* Fixed broken message in Christmas Seals, Winter Wackiness BP
* And a super secret surprise, of course!

The super secret surprise is fun! If a little buggy. Which locker was changed? They're all still open for me, and all the modes are the same.

Hammered · 08-11-2005, 09:26 AM

THE Guide to SWC has been updated to reflect the changed gallery goals and lockers.

Mr.Onion · 08-11-2005, 09:31 AM

Which locker? I looked on the guide but I can't find which one it is. :?

Sokko · 08-11-2005, 09:35 AM

I guess the locker change was fairly inconsequential, because I don't see anything really different. Strange, I seem to already have the new gallery goal, even though I never got 100 points. Intended behavior?

Dave Hettel · 08-11-2005, 09:54 AM

I think the changed locker is Lock Around the Clock.

CatWoman · 08-11-2005, 10:01 AM

The changed locker is the 3rd from the left on the bottom row. If you had already opened it, it remains open. Same with the gallery goal. If you already had goal #10, the patch doesn't take that goal away from you.

Hammered · 08-11-2005, 10:23 AM

One gallery goal which used to be for opening a certain locker has been changed to be awarded for the new secret surprise. This resulted in a need to change the contents of the corresponding locker. It now contains coins.

If you had already opened that particular locker, you already have that locker open and that gallery goal accomplished. If you hadn't opened it yet, opening it will just give you the coins and not the gallery goal.

Mr.Zee · 08-11-2005, 10:40 AM

Gah! I can't find it! (Again.)

CatWoman · 08-11-2005, 10:55 AM

Do you mean the patch?

For future reference, to get to that page, click on the "Help" tab at the top of the site, then on "Patches and Updates".

***Jamul*** · 08-12-2005, 09:32 AM

EMERGENCY UPDATE:

I guess I really need to stop rushing patches out! When developing software, remember, every change will have many consequences, none of them good.

If you downloaded patch 7.7 before this message right here was posted (9:20am Pacific Time, August 12), please download it again, or you may get stuck when riding minecarts. That's the only change, and really I should've changed the version number nonetheless, but well, I didn't.

PS - the best part is, I left the computer on all night to upload the full v7.7! Can't wait to do that again!

Jordo · 08-13-2005, 07:21 AM

so, what is this surprise anyway?

Sokko · 08-13-2005, 08:12 AM

Perhaps if you check out the changes in the Internet menu, you'll discover something extra that's been added.

P.S. My top score is 128.

AtkinsSJ · 08-13-2005, 08:46 AM

Hey, Jamul, every time you leave the internet screen, the score is reset. Know how to fix it?

Sokko · 08-13-2005, 08:47 AM

It's supposed to do that, I believe. Jamul said as much in the 7.7 beta thread.

Dave Hettel · 08-13-2005, 09:11 AM

I believe I've encountered a problem with the tool screens in the editor, at least with the item screen. If you set any of them to none, and I believe, mess with items in the item editor, it shows them as random in the select screen. When trying to place a random item, it crashes.

Julian · 08-24-2005, 06:25 PM

I'm having trouble in Boufpha's mall world. You go on a loop around the mine cart track. Any one else have it?

CatWoman · 08-24-2005, 06:52 PM

Yes, there is a bug in that world since the new patch, but I haven't been able to figure out what's causing it.

lisadash · 09-04-2005, 02:18 AM

I haven't been able to find the surprise. I've looked through all the pizza slices.
