I've updated the Dizzy colored tiles set.
There was one frame of the Dizzy walk tile, where Dizzy had one of his hands white.

You can get the updated version of the tiles set, from the official DizzyAGE site:

erh Jamie, i think alex was on about the 'coloured' dizzy tiles with the red gloves which are available as an additional download, not the standard plain white ones that come with dizzyage

Yep, the coloured dizzy tiles.
I use them in my game, so that's how I noticed it

I've added a small new article:

How to make the player jump on a trampoline item?

A trampoline, like in Dizzy V.

ahh i see.

i always use the white gloves, as that's what he had on the spectrum.

i'm curious, which do people prefer?

DizzyAGE v2.1b available!

http://www.yolkfolk.com/dizzyage/download.html

This is a beta-testing version, for the next games coming from PTeal, Jamie and myself (with The Other Side).

It fixes the stack overflow crash (thanks Jamie) and adds a few other stuff, like F2 key for the debug console.

So, please download, use it and let me know how it performs.
(see history.txt inside)

Thanks!

...if i didn't mentioned this, in the history.txt file,

now, static brushes support the ANIM property
if it's set to 2 (loop), they play, if not, they don't and only show the frame
set in their FRAME property, that they now take advantage of.

I'll add the B_ANIM define, in the next update/version, so you can access it from script too. (this one I forgot to export in this beta). It has the same value as O_ANIM.

So, check your maps for animated static brushes and make sure they work as supposed to.
