Build 20230129 released!


Happy (late) new year, maties!

This update is focused on improving the user experience, alongside rolling out the support of the new help site. Due to unexpected issues with Northbridge Mantis, I've rebuilt it from scratch. The new one uses Blazor for the entire stack, allowing me to expand it a lot easier. I'll talk about it at a later point.

Changelog

Common

  • Switched the links to the new site.

  • Dropped Windows 7 and 8.1 (as .NET 7 no longer supports them)

Northbridge

  • Overhauled the Save Manager and Backup systems, to support the new, universal, archive format.

    • Switched compression from Zstandard to Brotli.

    • Structural improvements.

  • Improved memory usage when Northbridge checks or interacts with the files.

  • Minor changes, in order to support new features.

  • Changed the version format in the About dialog, so it matches with the game's version.

  • Fixed a bug where importing files would crash Northbridge.

It's pretty early, but here's a look at a mob manager, handling the enemies in the game. The code streamlines the programming of the enemies. Hopefully, I can expand it to more useful ways.

Added achievements. Because why not?

Wrote a tool that installs the game's dependencies. That means Northbridge will always use the latest version of the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime.

While I'm preparing August's Monthly Sync, I'm preparing a Trello board for the game. You can see what I'm working on here. https://trello.com/b/CjFyzH50/immortal-sins-game-development Pardon my dust, while I'm getting this up and running.

Added the option to rebuild the cache. This will clear the cache and then decompress the files from the packages.

A bit of an old but goodie coming back: Quick Load! In an upcoming update, you can jump back to where you left off with a push of a button.

Hello, everyone! The second chapter of Divine Disports has been released! The forests of Enderaen are swarming with monsters as the kingdom of Mesfahld prepares for war... While a lonely mercenary sets out on his journey. I hope you'll like the chapter!

It's still pretty early work, but I am working on making the UI more dynamic and sleek. Including faces changing depending on their HP.
