Created a new header file for action records that mainly
serve to manipulate data. This is done in preparation for the
addition of SetValue, SetValueCombo, and ValueTest.
Added a feature that stores whether the player has won
the game at least once, and activates a specific event flag
if so. This may or may not enable easter eggs in the
game data, but definitely affects the (still unimplemented)
quotes easter egg in the version screen.
Fixed several issues with the nancy7 ad button:
- the sound in the main menu no longer cuts out when
returning from the ad
- an ad scene now never ends up in a second chance save
- going to the ad 2 times in a row does no longer continues
the game instead.
Also, the GotoMenu record now always forces the player
back to the menu, even when original menus have been
disabled; the old behavior never made sense.
The SpecialEffect action record got some significant changes
in nancy7, including a new type of fade, and the removal
of the predefined number of frames to fade. Testing with the
original is tough, since it runs way too fast on modern PCs,
and the new fade type is never actually used properly, so
the current implementation is only an approximation. Also,
I've discovered that prior to these changes the entire screen
got crossfaded, so the screenshotViewport() function is now
entirely removed.
Added support for the new type of item introduced in nancy7,
which, instead of getting picked up, transports the player to
a new scene with a close-up view of the item.
Added support for a short variant of Hot1FrSceneChange,
which combines all the directional scene changes into one.
Due to the weird way the data is combined, significant
changes to the way ActionRecords are created had to be made.
Added support for three different action records types
(TableIndexOverlay, TableIndexPlaySound, and
TableIndexSetValueHS), all of which use nancy6's newly-
introduced TABL chunk, which describes a table of values
that can be changed through interaction. This is used
in nancy6's museum narrations puzzle.
Modified the Textbox code so the conversation font is no
longer the default, but rather has to be requested by
Conversation types. This fixes the nancy6 tutorial having
a blue highlighted text while explicitly needing red.
Added a separate class for handling hypertext (tagged
text used in conversations, etc) in preparation for the
addition of Autotext, which will also use it.
Implemented the action record type responsible for
overriding the default "I can't" sound for a specific item.
Also implemented closed captioning for the same use
case, since it had previously been overlooked.
Fixed an issue where certain sound channels wouldn't get
paused when changing state. Collapsed the pause/unpause
functions inside Scene into a single function, and placed it
inside SoundManager.
Moved all puzzle action records to a separate folder. Split
recordtypes.h into three different files, depending on record
function: navigation, sound, and miscellaneous.
