Aleph One Preview Build
Posted By: treellamaDate: 3/14/07 5:42 p.m.

I've uploaded a Pi-day preview build to treellama.org:

Mac OS X:
http://www.treellama.org/alephone/AlephOne-20070314-OSX.tar.bz2

Windows:
http://www.treellama.org/alephone/AlephOne-20070314.zip

Linux:
http://www.treellama.org/alephone/AlephOne-20070314-nolibs.tar.bz2

Source:

(there is no classic Mac OS version of this preview build)

Changes:

+ Removed Pfhortran

+ Fixed a Lua remote crash vulnerability

+ Added support for transparent liquids in the software renderer, but
forgot to add the MML files to the releases. You can get them here:
http://www.treellama.org/alephone/Software_Transparent_Liquids.mml

+ Fixed a bug rendering terminal PICTs that use JPEG compression

+ Updated SDL sound code to use linear interpolation instead of zero
order hold; also defaults to 44100 Hz output. SDL builds sound as good
as NIBs and Marathon 2 did now.

+ Fixed a bug with signed 8-bit sounds that caused the PiD doors on the
first level of M1A1 to sound awful.

+ Switched to libmad for mp3 playback instead of SDL_Sound and SMPEG.
This fixes a deadlock when resuming saved games in Windows. Also, we now
use libsndfile for AIFF/WAV music playback (ADPCM compression is
supported), and Ogg/vorbis using libogg and vorbisfile. Ogg/Vorbis is
now the recommended music format.

+ L_Fade_Out doesn't stop playback, just clears the playlist

+ Added MML replacement sound support for all platforms. MML replacement
sounds must be AIFF/WAV, and are fully loaded into memory when used, not
streamed from the disk.

+ Music fades now work on all SDL platforms

+ Added a volume slider for music playback

This preview build is network compatible with the previous release. This
is not a stable release, so keep your old version around in case
something you need doesn't work.
