- Welcome to AnimatED!
-
- This is the second release of AnimatED. A lot of features has been
- added to AnimatED since the previous version. Here's a list of what's
- new in AnimatED version 1.2:
-
- * AnimatED now supports animations with a different palette per
- frame (as supported by DPaint and PPaint).
- * Added support for Med-modules.
- * Added the Load Script event.
- * Combined the 'Attach Event' and 'Events' window.
- * Renamed the events.
- * Animations can now be played in a selectable display mode.
- * Seperated the Tracker-Mask options from the Sound-event, which now
- has become an event on it's own.
- * AnimatED now uses it's own special font, based on Thinpaz/XEN.
- * Changed the arrowbuttons into sliders for the Timing and Freeze
- Frame events.
- * Completely changed the Prefs window, splitting it into 3 different
- pages.
- * Added the Auto-save Prefs option to the Prefs window.
- * Added the Refresh rate option to the Prefs window.
- * Added the Single palette option to the Prefs window.
- * Added the Add icon to script option to the Prefs window.
- * Added File-requester buttons to the filepaths in the Prefs window.
- * Added a palette editor for the GUI screen in the Prefs window
- * AnimatED now remembers where the script was loaded from and gives
- this directorypath + filename as default when saving the script.
- * AnimatED and AnimatEDPlay will now, when a soundsample,
- trackermodule or medmodule can't be loaded, try to play the
- animation anyway.
- * Completely changed the format in which AnimatED saves it's scripts.
- This makes it easier for me to keep old scripts compatible with new
- versions of AnimatED and vice versa.
- * Coded the ScriptConverter utility to convert AnimatED 1.1 scripts
- to the new format.
- * Optimised the existing code a bit and removed some bugs.
- * Added a nice background window...for which I borrowed the idea
- from MainActor. ;)
- * Created an Installer script using the standard Installer program.

- Also read all about the animation competition (AnimComp.txt file,
- which is included in the archive) organised by Dale Hemenway!
