----------------------------------------------------------- The Games Factory (V1.06) - Home version Copyright (c) Clickteam & Europress 1996-2000 ----------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to The Games Factory. FILES ----- For size reasons, the install program of this shareware version of The Games Factory does not contain all the files of the CD-Rom version. Additional packs are freely available on the Clickteam Web site, www.clickteam.com. These packs have been splitted into small files, so that you can download only the files you need. WHAT'S NEW IN TGF 1.06 ---------------------- This version includes 3 bug fixes since the version 1.05: * The problem with the actions "Load/Save Position" of the INI object in the 32 bit version is now fixed. * The 16x16 icon of the stand-alone applications is now correctly saved. * 32 bit version: when you save an application which contains levels with more than 64 Kb of events, sometimes these events could be corrupted, making TGF unable to reload your application. This problem is now fixed. Note: this does not apply to the 16 bit version of TGF, as it cannot handle more than 64 Kb of events per level. Also, this version allows you to integrate a preview image to your Internet games. This image is displayed by Vitalize 2.x or above while it's downloading your .ccn file. If you haven't yet installed Vitalize! on your machine, please connect to our site and download it. The Vitalize! plugin allows you to play in your Web browser the Internet applications created with The Games Factory or Multimedia Fusion. WHAT'S NEW IN TGF 1.05 ---------------------- This version is different from the CD-Rom version, as it now accepts the Click & Create extensions, like the List box, Combo box, or even the extensions made by 3rd party developers. How to install a Click & Create extension: 1. Install the .cox file (resp. .ccx for the 16 bit version) into the root directory of The Games Factory. 1. Change the .cox extension (resp. .ccx) to .gox (resp. .gfx) 2. If the first 2 letters of the filename are "KC", rename them to "GF". Example: KCFLX.COX -> GFFLX.COX CD-ROM ------ If you prefer to buy the CD-Rom of The Games Factory, please contact Europress, www.europress.co.uk.
