Hi people, I released Fish Fillets 1.0.0 today. What is new: * Dutch spoken dialogs for all levels (by Astrid de Wijn and friends). * Disallowed a move, to be consistent with the original Fish Fillets. Pushing of partially supported objects is disallowed. The object has to be supported by a wall or by a fish who isn't directly under it. http://fillets.sourceforge.net/img/manual/pushing_partially_supported.png You could switch back to the less restrictive rules by using "strict_rules=0" config option. Thanks Brian Raiter for reporting the discrepancy. * Provided music looping without fading (by Brian Raiter). Download from: http://fillets.sourceforge.net/download.php Thanks for improving the game. Your translations and bug reports are helpful. Have a nice next year. -- Ivo Danihelka |

> Luckily, it isn't affecting the hall-of-fame solutions. > They all continue to be valid. Thanks Pavel for retesting them. I've managed to test all the solutions that I had saved, including older ones I had in backups. The only places where I found problems with the strict rules were in "Closed Society", as I mentioned earlier (Roland Paul's 114-move solution is invalid, for example), and in "Eight Vikings in a Boat", where a lot of my early solutions involved pushing the hair over a shield carried by the big fish. b |

I improved the strict_rules by another commit. It will be now consistent with the behavior in the original Fish Fillets. The rules can be described as: The pushed object has to be supported by a wall or by a fish who isn't directly under it. Luckily, it isn't affecting the hall-of-fame solutions. They all continue to be valid. Thanks Pavel for retesting them. -- Ivo Danihelka |

I implemented the config option in CVS.
Its help:
{{{
strict_rules=<boolean> Disallow pushing a leaning stack of objects.
}}}
It is enabled by default now.
You could toggle it on the command line or inside
~/.fillets-ng/script/options.lua
Should I build a Linux or Windows binary for testing?
PS: I attached an image to explain the disallowed move.

I look a very quick look around, and my hunch is that it's not a situation that comes up very often in regular gameplay. "Closed Society" is probably the most likely place. On the other hand, I've verified that the 110-move solution is still possible in the original. "Outraged Greenpeace" is another likely place. b |

I just tested it in the orignal Fish Fillets (wine 1.2 is able to run them). I attached a saved position for Fillets NG. It is before the pushing by the small fish. I will prepare a config option to switch between the behaviors. We could then test the new levels and other things with the original behavior. -- Ivo Danihelka |

Quite by accident, I discovered a mismatch in the game logic of Fish Fillets NG compared with that of the original. The difference comes up when there is an object that is being carried by a fish, and is also resting on a second object being carried by the same fish. If the other fish then pushes the first object, then the fish dies in the original Fish Fillets, but survives in Fish Fillets NG. (Assuming that the object has no other supports, of course, and that it doesn't get pushed off the first fish's back entirely.) The easiest way I could find to reproduce this case is in the level "Welcome To Our City": small fish moves: lllllluuuullluullllldrrrrrruul large fish moves: LLLLLLLLLLLLLLUUUUULLLLLLLLLDDDDDRRRUUUU ... then the small fish swims left to push the statue arm. (It's also not hard to reproduce in "Closed Society" by having the small fish push a snail up to one already on the big fish's back.) I'm assuming this discrepancy isn't already a known issue, since I didn't see it documented anywhere. Maybe it should be? Or should it be considered a bug and fixed? My instinct is that it's better to be faithful to the original -- but at this point Fish Fillets NG has been out for so long that maybe it's too late to change the game logic. b |

That sounds like a good solution. (I considered something similar, but I wanted to minimize the number of new files in my patch.) > The attached patch shows the additional changes. Looking over the attachment, I discovered that I accidentally included an unrelated change in the patch I sent you, namely the one-line change to WorldBranch.cpp. I forgot to take that change back out before I ran my diff. My mistake. That said, you might want to consider including that change. What it does is replace an exception with a warning when node_bestSolution() is invoked on a nonexistent level. I've been annoyed by this exception a couple of times in the past: I downloaded a new worldfame.lua file from the link on the Hall of Fame page, only to have the game stop working because worldfame.lua included scores for levels that hadn't made it into my distro yet. I think it's better for the program to just ignore those scores and keep going. b |

It is a very good patch. Its coding style is consistent with the other code and the looping done in SDLMusicLooper::musicOutput() is very smart. It allows to fade-in and then repeat the known music loop. I changed the lookupLoopData() to obtain the loop definition from a *.ogg.meta file. The meta file contains just two lines with the start and end loop positions. The attached patch shows the additional changes. I also attached a small Python script to discover the looping positions in a given WAV. Thanks again, -- Ivo Danihelka |

I don't really know much about this subject, but from what I could tell from my limited research is that OGG has no standard for metadata, so people typically make up their own ad-hoc solutions. My research also made it clear that there are no plans to add support for metadata to SDL_mixer. Thus if the data was attached to the OGG files, the program would have to parse the OGG file and extract it manually, as a separate step. (I also thought about just having a separate text file with the information in it, but that seemed like extra work for the code for no particular benefit.) b |

Thanks for the patch. I was able to apply it and compile without problems. I still have to read the code fully. Is there a program to extract the loop positions from a wav? Or is it possible to read about them in a WAV specification? How are they named there? Does ogg some something similar? -- Ivo Danihelka |

Enclosed is a patch that corrects the looping in the music to not include the introductory segment (fade-ins and the like). This is something I've been meaning to do for a while but never had the time. To do this, I went back to Altar's distribution and extracted the loop metadata out of the original WAV files. This also required adding a new class to handle the loop-playing correctly. Let me know if there are any issues with this. I hope this feature can be added to a future release. b |

The patch is quite smart. I like that the animations are enabled by default. The patch is mainly effective in the emulator level. The EffectZx is used there on large images. The other effects are not used so often. I guess you will not need the patch after the emulator level. Or maybe you will want to disable additional CPU eaters, e.g., WavyPicture. -- Ivo Danihelka |

Hi, first of all, thanks for the awesome game! I found that the game eats my netbook battery way too fast, I'm currently stuck in the "emulator" level. I don't know whether there is an "official" way to disable some animations, I found the attached patch quite effective. I just tested it in the "emulator" level, of course the graphic suffers from it, but at least I can think about it now without AC connected. Bye, Christoph |

Hello, I have a bugfix release of the Fish Fillets - Next Generation. What is new: * Fixed undefined behavior in the last levels. The outgoing objects could be stopped by an obstacle (thanks Josef Peterka for pointing it out). * Fixed strange background colors on the F10 and F1 screens. SDL-1.2.14 would fix these too. * And the data have only updated worldfame.lua. Download from: http://fillets.sourceforge.net/download.php -- Ivo Danihelka |

Definitely one of the most powerful Sudoku Programs out there. You basically get everything you'll ever want and need from Sudoku, including unlimitted puzzles generated at the skill level you like, cheats, hints, and even the ability to design your own puzzles. http://www.sudokusnake.com -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Sudoku-Snake-tp24851152p24851152.html Sent from the fillets-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. |

I was trying to get it (http://fillets.sourceforge.net/intro.avi) included into the Ubunto repos but a question came up about it's legal status and license: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fillets-ng/+bug/241483 I think having the video available as an optional (recommended) package is important as it provides context to the game. If it's legally permitted to redistribute, can the devs supply a version in Theora instead of DivX? The DivX codes are a pain. |
