Was just curious as to when the next BYOND update will be coming? And if we could get some sneak preview of what's been changed / fixed? Would be nice. That and I'm bored ;-)
Thanks for your time.

Sounds cool. Are you selecting specific testers, or will you release a public Beta download? We typically test with a group of veteran users, but we'll see how things go. | |
Sounds awesome, I really look forward to seeing its release. Thanks for replying Tom. I have something to look forward to now. *grins cheesily*

There is a very good reason why they can't. As far as I know, the icons change frame every tick. But I could be wrong. Changing the FPS would make BYOND need another ticker to look after icons, and that would just be madness.

Yo. You said Skins. Will you be setting up a Skin Database on Byond so ppl can own'load em? And if so... Will you release a program allowing people to make thier own?
| |
I'm pretty sure we will all be able to create our own skins. Otherwise, there would be almost no point at all to them.

I think ther shud be a option for standerd and also a option for skin so you dont hav to use the skin if you dont want to.

Sorry, just had to:

It was supposed to be about last year at this time :( As it stands, I can't really give any dates because I'm only able to work on it in spurts. If I can get a good chunk of time and sync up with Dan, we'll probably be able to put something out-- a lot of the work has been completed already. We'll probably have it in "beta" for a while and iron out the new bugs and some of the older ones during that time.
The update is mainly an aesthetic one... it allows you to change the "skin" for BYOND and create menus and buttons and so forth. We've also separated out the pager and made the interface more intuitive. The idea is to allow people to make more professional-looking games. If you search for posts by me there should be an overview in there somewhere.
