Bury - I think he's got some stuff inside the USERS MANUAL, too.. Mvgulik - Help.com module ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- Changelog --------- Release 0: Vanilla Noctis IV, with the 'speedup' disabled Release 1: ADD: 'm' is now an alias for taking a snapshot, and 'n' is now an alias for taking a panoramic shapshot FIX: Panoramic snapshots don't bug up Noctis IV anymore CHANGE: Speedup on the roof of the stardrifter is now enabled. Release 2: CHANGE: Kicked supports.nct out of noctis.exe (it's now a seperate file again inside the DATA folder) CHANGE: Small internal changes (#include defs.h) ADD: Makefile, compile.bat ADD: 'b' and 'delete' are now aliases for taking a 'raw' snapshot (without starname/planetname data) ADD: Jetpack and jumping (including the 'c' jetpack directonal control cutoff key) CHANGE: Snapshots are now numbered NICE-style ('00000001.BMP') instead of NIV-style ('SNAP0001.BMP'). This allows for way more screenshots. ADD: Mouselook. Hit the UP key whilst on a surface to change mouselook (there are 3 modes). Doesn't work in space. ADD: Omega Drive. No flashy Omega Drive status inside the SD though, and you'll have to hexedit your current.bin to enable it.. ;) ADD: Moviemaker (works also in space, same controls as in NICE plus a pause function and some other improvements; moviemaking manual has also been added to the package). ADD: Raw snapshot while in space (I don't really know if this feature was lost...). ADD: Radius info now displayed in the Remote and Local target data windows. ADD: Status messages on surface now work (ie: mouselook change). FIX: 'm' key snapshot doesn't bug labeling anymore. CHANGE: Extended viewfield of objects. CHANGE: Roofspeed has now a switch to control it (press 's' while in the SD). ADD: Bundled 'help.com' module again Release 2.1: FIX: DL module has been updated. It now correctly shows the number of notes of the main object, if queried about a planet (previously it still showed the # of notes of the star). FIX: 's' and 'p' don't activate their respective functions when labeling, anymore.
