ENIGMA Development Environment

DS2~ fyi fonts that are copyrighted and used without the authors permission are always illegal, whether the font is in its  original TTF format or is converted to a texturepage, just as illegal regardless of the format, if it isnt your property, it just isnt, end of story.

lol - if that were the case then a lot of microsoft word users are breaking the law.  So by that definition if I use a font in word and print a document I am illegal ? If it were illegal don't you think many companies would be trouble ? All those developer tools with fonts support, illegal too ?

Nice question

Either way, it would have done far better than not being sold and under the helm of M.O.

As to YoYo, they made some shitty decisions, but there again most companies do, in the field, so might be unfair to say that it would have done better with Atari.  YoYo was stuck from the start from the pile of poo that was the code base, would Atari have simply re-written the base from start, who knows. Would have been nice to skip straight to GM Studio bypassing the few disappointed updates they released, would Atari have simply run it through the ground and no GM ?  In terms of bug fixes and frequent releases, would it be far less than YoYo? I guess so, perhaps given that YYG is mostly devoted to GM, so in my opinion I think development might be better of with YYG. In terms of the bad decisions I think they both equally would have made some, who would have made the worse is open for pure speculation, though my bets would go towards Atari.  Perhaps the product would have been more expensive......however ATARI would have had better funding perhaps ? would this translate to a better product ? In my opinion not necessarily.

Though I'm sure the product name would have sounded more professional than YoYo Runner, YoYo Compiler, YoYo Playa, etc. and maybe they would have adopted a new name, who knows.

Though I wonder, why the bloody hell would ATARI have bought this ?

However there is another thing, YYG's relation to Microsoft......Wasn't it founded by someone who worked at M$ ? developed for M$? so given YYG's relation to M$, might enable better support, licensing, etc. Though this fucking compiler should have been part of the product base since Studio, along with the VM runner, but not an option you paid for........ All in all I think it might have been a wise move to sell it to YYG, even though some people seem to think YYG was going to run it to the ground, but somehow they improved and change a lot since day 1 and made big changes and in 2.0 will probably be the biggest change and makeover they make, including code base, IDE and new function set to replace old legacy ones.  So yeah......would ATARI have done the same ? sooner ? Later ? Some might say maybe, I'd be a bit skeptic on that, or if the product were to be better it would take far longer.......

Maybe it could have gone better in some aspects either way.  There are pros and cons.

YYG blames everything on the Delphi code base and limitations of the original GM, and now they bloody woke up years later and will do things way different in GMS 2 , about bloody time !
they have a bigger dev team now and the funding, though who knows how this alleged subscriber model will work.

I agree about the publicity trainwreck comments, but that does not necessarily mean ATARI would have released a better product feature wise.

One thing for sure that I am confident on, with ATARI they'd have a far better forum, not this pile of dung they are using, they would have a much better structured community, PROPERLY moderated, and better support initially, not the FIASCO that was the support desk initially.  Where I am not 100% sure of my answer is product feature base, quality and price. 
Biggest fucking mistake #1, keep the IDE and codebase and simply duct tape. That was the fastest easy way, perhaps ATARI would have had a bigger team and suffice funding to make the bigger changes early on.  but then how many features ? how many updates ? bug fixes? there is too many things to take into consideration.

So if it's GPU intensive then why the hell would the YYC drop your FPS 40% ..... it's weird.......it's as if it's actually disabling hardware acceleration and using CPU to render lol!

So we can assume it's not the YYC slowing shit down but the CRAP that it is that was never optimised.

I feel sorry for people who actually paid for this crap and yes some have

Well I can't be arsed to check that right now I'll be away for 2 weeks on special assignment   when I come back will give this some testing, don't expect anything drastic and will only make me realise that it was $300 well saved!

What you haven't heard ? Minimum to request payment $10k lol!

5 month is bloody unreasonable. 

Yes it's going to be quite a delay, they sure know how to excite people and then break the news...GM2 probably will be delayed too - remember they said they hoped for a beta in 2014 LOL.
I bet you this "DELAY" can extend beyond new year.  They don't want to release the YYC before finalising the touches on 1.4, I bet you they bloody knew that and did that on purpose to lure people to spend money on exports before the 6th......nice and clever.
I'm leaving soon for 2 weeks (special assignment too ) and when I am back I expect they will announce the delay OFFICIALLY and as usual people will complain they were having wet dreams over the YYC bla bla bla.....

Ok works now.

Started some NEW egm, things compile now, I tried with all graphic systems.

VERY nice this searching in resources thing, this is extremely useful for big games when locating specific things,
combined with proper use of commenting, this can be a big time saver!
Thanks for this feature.

Otherwise yeah I have no time to spend hours for today but spent a few minutes torturing LGM and it survived lol.

Tomorrow evening as I come back I will put it to more torture and see

What the bloody hell did I miss ?

You downloaded both the new plugin and LGM jar correct? Open git-bash and enter "cd enigma-dev" "git fetch" and "git pull"

Of course I did i mentioned it
I have done it many times before,
both JARs were replaced with newer version.  Then I updated the engine.
I always did that fine. and yes the git says already up to date

You also need the engine updates, the EGM format has had some changes, I can fix your projects and PM them back to you.

It would also help if you could http://www.pastie.org or http://www.pastebin.com some of these errors after attempting the above.

I already updated the engine and I sent you a log of errors in PM
I'm sure this has to do with the changes in EGM (version numbering), it cannot open old EGMs......
