Basinc 1.794

Leave a comment

There is not much in this update. First of all, you’ll see a few improvements to the UDG Editor that DamienG requested.

Second, while making a few fixes about the SimpleCON device, the bug is also cleared. There are still other minor code fixes but they are not worth writing.

But if you came here via BasinC’s own update check reminder, congratz (to both of us)! it’s good right =) Please leave a comment. Do you think basinc will benefit from improved internet functions? And mention your own ideas. (if you are not–don’t forget to enable update check under Tools > Basinc Options > Basinc Network).

Warning! Do not overwrite your snippets file! (BasinCSnips.dat is provided for first timers only. I’m going to change the file behaviour in the next release.)

BasinC Version 1.7

Leave a comment


This article is obsolete. Get basinC 1.79 instead. https://arda.kisafilm.org/blog/?p=1379&lang=en

Here is a better basinc 1.7. Again, this is NOT alpha. Please update your basinC.

Download BasinC V1.7 (~3.5MB zip file)

Do not merge old basinc folder with this one. Create a clean folder for this version to work.

If you desperately need your old preferences, just rename your old basin.ini file as basinC.ini and copy it into new basinc 1.7 folder. Basinc will upgrade your ini file as it exits. Some of your preferences may be lost in the process.

 

// BasinC v1.7 20.11.2017

// Added new toolbar buttons
// Added toggle breakpoint navigation buttons (see view menu)
// Added auto backup feature. Basinc saves your work in the background every 3 minutes.
// it keeps 10 copies going back up to 30 minutes in /autoback folder.
// To turn this feature off, use: Options > Filing > Auto Backup
// Changed – Basinc now requires basinC.bin and basinC.ini rather than old basin.ini.

BasinC 1.7a

This release is an untested alpha release (ok, actually, every basin release might be marked as Alpha).

Not worth for 1.7 glory, you may see some icons missing and some functionalities reduced because I planned to make them better, yet failed to complete all the work. Basinc demands more time that I don’t have.

The project is not abandoned. V1.7 will hit the sinclair basic scene someday in the future 😀

btw. I can accept fancier toolbar icons. Comment or email me if you are interested.

Yours truly,
Arda
