About a week ago I ported Across to Windows. It needs original Across 1.2 assets and I don't want to distribute full assets myself. Sky picture needs to be replaced with a larger one for fullhd reso to work. Labs has made a zip in discord with asset fixes (there was also a bug in killer animation). ...

Not totally the same thing, but maybe it isn't obvious: you can load external levs using URL parameter, for example: https://m-l.fi/files/eol2/eol2.html?lev=https://api.elma.online/dl/level/542728 or multiple levs (this won't autostart any lev, but levs will appear in the external level menu): https...

New beta: https://m-l.fi/files/Elmanager_beta.zip Changes: * SLE: Added basic saveload support when playing. * SLE: Physics FPS can be changed. * SLE: Shortcuts can be disabled when playing. * SLE: Bugfix: Tab key was not working well if used as turn key. There is some problem with DPI (something to...

Sorry late reply. Yea it's possible to add that feature ("autograss selection"). But the current autograss code is kinda convoluted, so I'm not sure how hard it is to add. I'll add a github issue for this.

Smibu

Nice Lousku :) I'll add that video to Elmanager homepage (and also any other new SLE videos that I can find) when I get around to updating the page. I'll also add links to other kinds of tutorials such as tej's. I'll take a look at that tab bug some day. Only thing I'm missing is some basic saveload...

Say goodbye to alt+tabbing: this beta adds support for in-editor testing for SLE! Feel free to find out yourself what kind of things are possible. ;) pskrip also contributed a couple of fixes and features for this version - thanks! Changelog: * SLE: Added support for in-editor testing. * Replay view...

After thinking about this lately, I don't feel comfortable enough to publish the physics code, specifically because of the 3rd point mentioned in the first post. Sure, it seems pretty unlikely that something like that would happen and cause trouble for me, but these days I want to take safe paths. I...

Smibu

Thanks Daniel for the clarifications! I have some thoughts/questions about the legal worries... If somebody comes forward with an accusation that the code contains their algorithm or implementation, for example, it would incur potentially large costs, and would be a tough situation due to the histor...

iCS wrote:Save level as SVG should export grass polygons/objects only if enabled in elmanager view (as in export PNG).

Yep thanks, fixed in the latest beta.

Changelog.

Edit 25 July: Released the new version now. Looks like the changelog link in old version is broken, but download should still work.

Smibu

Very short background info: Several years ago I obtained code for Elma's physics engine through reverse engineering. The physics code has not been public so far. I had a brief discussion with Daniel a couple of days ago. I asked whether he'd be okay with if I published the physics code in some form,...

Some news about the upcoming version: * Level manager has been rewritten. It is now similar to Replay manager. The ancient VB code is gone. * Due to moving to .NET Core 3, Windows XP and Vista are no longer supported. So, the minimum is Windows 7. * Thanks to .NET Core 3, .NET Framework is no longer...

Smibu

Changelog * SLE: Added support for SVG import and export. * SLE: Added support for drag & drop import. * Elmanager DLLs now reside in "bin" directory, making EOL folder less messy if Elmanager.exe is in the same folder. (Contributed by tej!) * Bugfix: Elmanager failed to start in Wine...

ye, dont get the wrong idea, im wasnt saying the code is badik or anything liek that (im dont know im havent seen it), i have no reason to think it is Yea ofc not, I just realized I never really mentioned the refactoring thing, so I did it now. bigest thing i gues: im dont like the CEGUI interface,...

Smibu

Replying to some of the "whether to use EOL2 code or not" discussion: biggest reason is that its just impsy to work with other ppls code, it would be biger effort to figure it out than to write my own. As a data point, I refactored EOL2 code quite a lot in 2017-2018. It seems like there we...

Smibu

I don't remember much about the case (because it wasn't at all a big deal for me). I think I thought he was just taking a nap or texting with gf.

Smibu

Fixed, thanks.

Edit 17 July 2019: The Elmanager update server has been rewritten in Rust. The server used to be a quickly-written Python script, so now the server (and therefore the download button) should be a lot more stable.

There's also many situations where this would just make life a little easier, without it being a problem: Whenever the optimal placement of a texture is defined by one of the corners. Ok dani, I wrote that down. jblaze: Yes tabs have been requested many times and it's on the list. Needs work of cou...

Smibu

I have considered that, but so far I've decided against it for a couple of reasons: Quite a few people (I count more than 10) already have EOL2 code (at least some version of it). All of them are people who know how to code, but they lack the time and/or motivation to continue EOL2. I base this assu...

Smibu

Would be nice with 'right click in empty spot' -> 'put start here' function. When editing large levs always spend a lot of time just looking for where start is. Agree, I'll add that. By default you place pictures like on the very right, but it would make life much easier if could toggle between pla...

Smibu

It's now been over six months since I did any EOL2 development (the latest thing I did in April was a CMake refactoring, so nothing user-visible). Right now I feel I will not be able to finish EOL2 (let's say finish = reach feature parity with EOL) in any reasonable timeframe. My motivation is large...

Smibu

Thanks for reporting; should be easy to fix. I'll try to release an update next weekend.

Edit: Done; that level shows a topology error now.

Smibu

Lev without any objects gives internal error. As long as there is either an apple or a flower it should work. You're right; I finally bothered to check it. :) Next version will only require 1 object of any kind in addition to start object. There is a new topology error if you forget to add one. Whe...

SLE is a part of Elmanager. So Elmanager = Replay manager + Replay viewer + Level manager + SLE. The screenshots in the homepage are from SLE, Replay viewer and Replay manager.

Nicolas programmed the first version of ALE in 2003. Smibu adopted the popular project in 2009. Some feedback about this: * I didn't really adopt ALE (Elmanager does not use ALE's code at all). I wrote SLE from scratch. I definitely copied some ideas from ALE. * Might be worth mentioning the editor...

1) Good work! The cross OS support is amazing! I can't really play myself anymore because windowed Elma doesn't work in my Win10 and I just can't put that much time to playing that I would go full screen. Also not in work for same reason. The browser version works pretty well! Thanks. Offtopic, but...

A few issues/feature requests. Might have mentioned some of these before, don't remember. - While editing title ctrl c/ctrl v applies changes to lev. - Trying to save for example as testest43452 (any number) using Filename editbox (not save as) while there is a level called testest gives Error 'A l...

Smibu

Try ticking that box:

If it doesn't work, try deleting all Elmanager*.dat files.

Smibu

Yeah, I think some option to allow topology errors in text is simple to add.

Smibu

Ok nice, no bug reports from the beta version, so I pushed the update.

Pab: You might need to revert the DPI workaround thing.

Next version beta. Last year I wrote this: Alright, I improved the handling of default values in picture tool based on your suggestions and common sense. The logic goes like this: * Change distance and clipping to default values automatically when creating a new picture. * Change distance and clipp...

Poll has been running for a week now and the gap seems clear, so EOL2 is the winner name. I'll start renaming stuff. How is EOL2 "Elasto Mania Online 2/Elma Online 2" not confusing with Elasto Mania 2? I think people will use the words "elma2" and "eol2" most of the tim...

Official Elma 2 is out, so the unofficial Elma project needs a new tentative name. After discussing in Discord, I picked 2 candidates for this poll.

CE = Community Edition

Smibu

Would it be possible to render grass as the game does inside SLE? It's possible for sure (issue here ) and I will make it if I get enough motivation + time. Biggest problem is that I don't know how exactly Elma renders grass, so it would always look slightly different in SLE, so you'd have to check...

Smibu

Anyway, is it possible to make browser version (when ran locally from disk) to save my control config? At this moment I have to change control setting each time I run Elma 2 Browser version. I've thought the same; should be possible. Issue here: https://gitlab.com/Smibu/elma-2/issues/45 And maybe f...

libstdc++ version is incompatible... there is some info e.g. here for how to fix it, but I'm not sure if those are applicable to Mint.

Smibu

Not sure, but I'd guess a multipage tiff doesn't do any kind of delta encoding between frames. At least couldn't find any hints from google. It's probably just "multiple files in one".

The zip format for lgr probably helps reduce the total size, but hard to say how much.

Smibu

Before running, try:

Code: Select all

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/elma2/lib

It doesn't look from the lib dir for some reason...

Don't know about Mint, but on Ubuntu it's just:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove elma2

Smibu

can you or someone who knows tell how the framerate for animation is determined? or the details, i assume all animations have same speed as apple animation but what is it exactly etc? Yeah so far everything has same anim speed, and that's 30 FPS. So technically the frame index is chosen like: retur...

Ok Pab nice - it was a complete guess. I've never used that option.

Primary Surface cannot be made. Google doesn't give much help; it seems to be a pretty rare message with just a few results to some Delphi forums. ALE still works on my comp with latest Windows 10, so as Markku said, it might be some driver-related problem. Some features I remember ALE has but SLE ...

Smibu

sunl: Yea ok, should be easy fix.

Pab: It probably has something to do with high DPI. Can you try if changing that option helps at all?

Smibu

sunl: Added the transparency ignore thing to buglist. > Bug: when i select Ground and select different options with arrows, the whole map moves along with Up and Down. Then, once a type of ground is selected, i cant move the map with arrows anymore (but i can get it to work again pressing different ...

Smibu

Do you need us to report this kind of things? Yea of course small things can be reported too. They're more likely to get fixed/added than big ones, after all :) For example this "#" bug needed just one character addition to be fixed. sunl: No qgrass support yet, but I'll try to add it for...

Yeah, you can't add levels in browser version.

I have a question about Serpents Tale. In the game I get a tiny masking error (see a little blue dot?) on the first brick polygon, however according to the editor it should be masked fully. So is SLE slightly inaccurate? Or is it something that depends on the game resolution or I don't know what an...

Smibu

Hmm... does the exception come right after selecting the buggy font, or only after clicking OK/Apply?
