Release Version 1.1.4

Build Number: 15038

Release Version: 1.1.4

New features

  • New 'Dead' stock mood, which turns off breathing, blinking, saccades and improvisations.
  • The Advanced Mood Customizer can now set a character's blinking and breathing rate and its UI has been slightly revised.
  • We have added support for components of buildings which 'snap' together to support the upcoming Town Buildings content pack.
  • Set objects in Set Workshop View now appear as translucent until placed on set.
  • New 'Reset camera' button added to Modder's Workshop, which centres the 3D view.

Resolved issues

  • Accessories (in Dressing Room) have customization options once again. Just click the accessory on the character model to cycle through the material options.
  • Wallpaper over window and door sections will no longer appear corrupted upon saving and loading a movie. If you have an existing movie in which the wallpaper is appearing incorrectly around a door or window, select the door or window in the Set Workshop View, and change to a different version of that door or window, and (optionally) back, before re-saving your set or movie.
  • When passing through doorways, characters can now use different gaits other than the default.
  • Characters should open doors correctly rather than walking to the wrong side of the door prior to opening it.

Known issues

  • When running Moviestorm on an Apple Mac Mini, the program will crash every second time it is run.
  • Mac users running MacOS X 10.5 (Leopard) may experience slow running of Moviestorm, caused by the graphics card overheating.
  • Targeted camera shots can produce inconsistent results when targeted at characters.
  • The undo/redo functionality does not work when applied to vehicle movement commands.
  • The Modder's Workshop does not currently save any changes made to morphable heads.
  • Gestures or Improvisations can stop the Handcuffing activities from starting. If you encounter problems with trying to put in a Handcuff animation, try stopping the prisoner from improvising (using change mood, or by turning off improvisation for the whole scene via the script editor > settings tab).
  • Modders Workshop - A template, part or bodypart saved with a new name will sometimes not appear in the browser tree. The 'Refresh Browser' button should make the new file appear.
  • Modders Workshop - The Modder's Workshop will need to be restarted every time a set object is imported using the Sketchup Importer. The 'Refresh browser' button will cause the files to show up in the tree, but the model will not load.
