Spellbound Dizzy Lite v1.11 (DizzyAGE Remake) [DOWNLOADABLE]

The remake of Spellbound Dizzy Lite is now available to download. Enjoy!

Localisation
This is the first of the remakes to include language localisation, i will make the language files available on request for translation, these will then be included in the games main file when translated.
With v1.1 we have a polish translation thanks to Dizzy9

v1.11 Update (26/12/2011)

:egg: Fixed an issue where the water surface in the evaporator does not appear - this is due to a duplicate object id, caused by fixing a previous error in v1.1

:egg: Added some blocking material around the pipes in "the Control Center".

:egg: All scrolls are now centred on screen

:egg: Update to polish language files, and polish font.

v1.1 Update (26/12/2011)

:egg: Added polish translation, and polish font (Due to size issues with the polish font, the inventory when playing in polish will default to the standard DizzyAGE inventory dialog).

:egg: Updated the windy shaft to stop dizzy from getting thrown into the walls, and travel up in the ground.

:egg: Fixed an issue where dropping an item at the same time as picking up the trampette caused a 'unable to drop' message.

:egg: Renamed the attract screens to "press action to start" rather than space to start as this would not do anything.

:egg: Added a blocking element to the "egg eating plant" to stop dizzy becoming trapped.

Finished! {yolkfolk}:raspy:

But seriously though, to those of you who have never played the Lite version, you're in for a treat. :smile:

And what one of the scrolls says has a good point.....Where is Stuart Sidley these days?

Great stuff, was waiting for this.

Great! I request those files for Polish translation.
BTW:Language files include font bitmap? Polish Alphabet have more letters than english.Months ago I created a Perfect PL Font. It's perfect Polish font, was used in some translations(Dizzy excalibur, for example). But it requires replacement of "4 font.fnt" and "4 font.tga" files, so it might be a problem.Still, translation can be done with english alphabet.So it's not a big deal.

I have found 2 bugs, I'm not sure where to report these, so I'll just wirte it here:

Bug1:

Simple-Wind can blow too early when leaving starting cave.Not a big bug(you end up on upper screen, and nothing crashes), but I feel responisbility to let you know.

Bug2:

This happens when you try to jump on the plant-you'll get stuck forever.

Thank you Peter for your hard work. {yolkfolk}:clap:

The font replacement will work fine with the locale system that i've implemented, i'll send you a PM with a link to the language files.

Ok thanks for pointing these out.

As for bug1 i'll just leave as it is because dizzy will just float up until he's free.

And bug2 i'll add an extra blocking element in there to prevent it from happening anymore.

What’s the basis for the “You can’t drop this now!” messages? I got it every other time I tried to drop the trampette, for one thing.

I've just taken a look at this, i believe it is due to the invisible 'jumping' material that is under the trampette has not yet been disabled and so the games engine is refusing to let you drop an item in the same spot.

I've got an update to upload today with the polish translation, and a few other fixes so i'll get this one fixed aswell.

Arh! more bugs

ok all fixed will upload v1.11 later :blush:

Okay, I started version 1.11, and right away I noticed that the lever graphics are missing. {yolkfolk}:scratch: The game is going pretty well so far otherwise; I didn't get stuck in the plant this time. :cool: A few of the mechanics feel questionable, but I'll have to play some more and compare to the original before I go into detail.

Somebody on our Facebook page was having the same issue on v1.0, and he's also a Win7 user.
I've never had problems with the lever graphics as they do show up for me. :confused:
