Beta 7.0


This is likely going to be the last major beta version before the official release (it is really a "release" if it's kind of already been released for a year and a half...?). v1.0 will focus on Freshening Up the Experience, by replacing some of the old stuff from Windows PE 4 and adding some New and """Exciting""" things.

The changelog may look long, but it's mostly just quality-of-life improvements (not sure why/how we're improving your quality of life to begin with but whatever) and other less interesting changes.

  • Added window resizing and maximizing (finally)
  • Replaced IE with the "experimental" version that can access real webpages (very poorly). This particular feature still only works on Linux for the time being (but the program is at least now accessible at all on other OSes)
  • New startup screen
  • Added vibaphysics. This is a "port" of a standalone LOVE program that was made a while ago.
  • Implemented the Sounds tab in Control Panel
  • Replaced the WIP WPGUI library with a new design that's hopefully slightly less confusing, and rewrote some apps to use this new library
  • Most textboxes should now properly handle UTF-8 text, hopefully, unless there's some weird edge case we haven't found yet. Ëṅjôý tÿpìŋĝ yóūr fûńňy šymɓǫlś!
  • Updated g3d to 1.5.2 and added lighting effects to 3D Epicness. Yes, the textures are weirdly rotated now, and the lighting doesn't even take rotation into account. We don't feel like fixing that.
  • Changed installer interface to use GUI buttons instead of key presses
  • Added "Reverse" effect to Sound Recorder
  • Notepad is now properly aware of when a file has unsaved changes
  • Added Ctrl+N, Ctrl+O, Ctrl+S shortcuts to Notepad
  • Updated the Games for Windows image
  • Made server messages in PEChat grey colored, to reduce visual clutter a bit
  • PEChat server-side: Fixed names containing non-alphanumeric-underscore characters still being accepted
  • PEChat server-side: Invalid usernames will be truncated if too long and have invalid characters removed, instead of being outright rejected
  • PEChat server-side: Server messages (joins, disconnects, etc.) are no longer included in replays
  • Improved(?) the user interface of Paint
  • Removed the custom cursor on Windows (since they still haven't fixed that one bug where custom cursors appear with incorrect sizes on Windows.)
  • Removed the FNAF ""game"" (from the Games list, anyways. it still secretly exists.)
  • Removed the Soundboard app; it's functionality has been moved to Control Panel
  • UCanCode version 1.1: Now supports tabulation and comments
  • Fixed items in file GUIs being still clickable when offscreen
  • Fixed file GUI tooltips not being clickable sometimes
  • Allow scrolling in Explorer
  • Fixed some Command Prompt commands
  • Fixed the "Run" button in Visible Studio for Vurl projects
  • Tweaked UI positioning in some programs
  • A lot of minor bug fixes and tweaks, of course (wait a second, we're Crap OS, why the hell are we FIXING the bugs??)
