|

|

0.10.0:
|
||||
Major improvements have taken place in this version, mostly for behind-
|
||||
the-scenes stuff. First, we have migrated to GCC for building the Windows
|
||||
CE port. This helped take care of some obscure compiler bugs which were
|
||||
in there for quite a long time. It has also lead to efficient code
|
||||
generation due to GCC's advanced capabilities and consequently increased
|
||||
runtime speed. The second important change was the overhaul of the SDL
|
||||
library port. The benefits from this are twofold: The real-time code paths
|
||||
have been optimized, including contributed ARM assembly code for critical
|
||||
functions. Further, the screen display and mouse/keyboard input code has
|
||||
been partially rewritten to allow for increased compatibility across all
|
||||
devices.
|
||||
Due to the update of keyboard handling code, the keycodes have changed
|
||||
slightly. Running this version of ScummVM will overwrite your key bindings
|
||||
with the new defaults. See the section on how to play on Smartphones and
|
||||
Pocket PCs below for the new default keybindings.

|
||||
- Redesigned 'Free Look' action (Pocket PCs)
|
||||
In order to accommodate for the requirements of the lure engine, the
|
||||
usage characteristics of the 'Free Look' action have been improved. The
|
||||
new behavior is available for use in all engines, but is is *strongly*
|
||||
recommended for at least when playing 'Lure of the Temptress'. By using
|
||||
the new scheme, when in 'Free Look' mode, it is now possible to enter
|
||||
left clicks by clicking a second time near the current location of the
|
||||
mouse pointer. Left and Right clicks at the current point location
|
||||
are also available by using the respective actions' bound key.
|
||||
|
||||
- Reduced optimization build
|
||||
The ScummVM executable has grown quite large, prohibiting some devices
|
||||
from running memory demanding games (or any games at all). Code
|
||||
optimization level has been reduced to offset the growth of the executable.
|
||||
Games run slightly slower. This will be addressed before next release.
|
||||
|
||||
- Several bugfixes
