Marble Blast Platinum :: Patch 1.10
Total number of fixes/additions/removals: 85
General Fixes: (14)
- All original 25 Official Marbles Set are now smooth looking (especially the big marbles) thanks to the increased poly count.
- 'Mid-P' and '3D Marble' are now set to the same size as the remaining marbles and can now be played with when aiming for World Records.
- 'MBP on the Marble!' and 'Moshe' marbles now display the correct texture instead of being reversed/mirrored.
- Checkpoint triggers bug is now fixed (the marble was restarting at the trigger, not the actual checkpoint dts).
- Ctrl+L (The one that creates an automatic level picture for a level in the level selection screen) now created a PNG file rather than JPG. This fixes the bug where game crashed when a JPG was put rather than PNG.
- Statistics and Achievement GUIs no longer have an 'Apply' button. It's now 'OK'.
- Fixed a UI bug where the custom levels option was selected when you pressed to the right of the Achievements button (orange bit, needs a bit of clicking around).
- Fixed a UI bug where the expert levels option was selected when you pressed to the right of the Marble Selection and Statistics buttons (on the pic background itself, a little bit to the right of the orange of the selection screen).
- Checkpoint bug fixed where any powerup item picked up [and then hitting the checkpoint] was lost when going out of bounds and respawning on the checkpoint.
- Renamed 'Gravity Defyer' to the correct form of 'Gravity Defier' across MBP's levels, help/credits etc.
- Added a 'Loading...' text to the Achievements UI while it loads the achievements.
- Level Search now looks for MIS's in the missions (root) folder as well as inside the folders in the missions folder (previously done mission folders only and not the root one).
- Fixed the GUI where pressing F11 for level editor while in level select screen gives you a window with nothing in it but an Okay button.
- Fixed GUIs that had similar problem to the above but looked funny.
Removed: (2)
- The code that quits the game every 1250 times that you go Out of Bounds. Instead you only get those messages but it doesn't quit the game.
- Some unusable level editor bits such as the Terrain Editor, Area Editor and others. Modified the level editor. Now only buttons and such that we use appear and those we don't use disappeared and deactivated.
New additions: (12)
- Added Colmesh.dts to shapes
- Custom Marble (Evil Eye) now has correct amount of polys and moved to Official Marbles.
- New texture for the Random Powerup [the old shape and textures have been saved in a ZIP file in shapes folder].
- New texture for the Time Modifier item.
- Added 13 more marbles to the official marble list [all created by the awesome Phil!].
- Added a new marble with GarageGames's logo and it is the size of MBU's marble. It can be found in the offical marble list [now totals 40 marbles].
- Added new information to the Help/About menu regarding MBP features.
- Added a 'delay' to the teleport with a default time of 2.0 seconds but if you add this is a teleporter's TeleportTrigger [like bonusTime for Time Modifier], you can change it from 2.0 to any value you want.
- Added some new textures for MBP.
- Cancel button for the Demo Recorder has been implemented.
- Implemented a Custom Resolution button in the options menu. A dialog box would pop up and you can choose any of the given resolutions. Once you applied those, the game will adjust accordingly and give you 10 seconds in which to decide if you wish to keep the new resolution before it automatically reverts back to the old one.
- In order to support the GarageGames marble throughout Marble Blast Platinum, 9 levels, Learn the Edge Hit (beginner), Double LoopLoop, Marble Agility Course, Puzzle Ordeal, Gym (intermediate), Recoil Ultra Course, The Time Modifier Race, Don't Jump! and Mastering the Marble (expert) were modified slightly so that the GarageGames marble can fit through several parts of the levels.
