Sorted 29 11月 2010 by Muvizu_Admin in News A little while ago, we released a Muvizu version that contained a health warning - "may contain nuts" - but we're pleased to say that we've put an updated release out this afternoon that, er, contains merely traces of nuts. We're pretty sure, however, that we've nailed the more irritating bugs and it's actually been quite heartening to see so much content created even with the previous bleeding-edge build. I hope that Mysto won't mind us embedding his teaser video here as an example. It shows off a lot of the musical stuff that now comes with Muvizu: We can't wait to see the finished piece - and I'm sure that Status Quo will be magnanimous in their acceptance of a Muvizu user borrowing their copyrighted material :-) Anyhow, back to the business of today's release. The issues we know about stack up like this: Using the timeline to extremes - to record, re-record, undo, reorder and redo multiple times may cause a character to become confused and stop responding When scrubbing through the timeline, a character may appear to slide rather than perform animations, or perform animations standing rather than sitting. However, rewind and play back again and you should find that everything is as it should have been Animation blocks may be moved forwards but not backwards, so be careful of the order in which you record or to which you move Character attachment changes are not covered by the undo system If you put a decal on the back of the female adult character, it will colour her fingertips as well. (This has to be the silliest bug ever and had been fixed, but the fix didn't make it to the release version today so enjoy/suffer this while you can.) As usual, we'd appreciate feedback on this release. Also, we've had a couple of reports of videos being uploaded to YouTube via our website or the Muvizu application which haven't appeared in our content management system. This happens usually when the copyright protection stuff kicks in (most of the time you can still view the content on YouTube but we can't display it on our site) but we suspect a few glitches somewhere. Any info would be appreciated. We hope that you enjoy today's calmed-down version of the previous Muvizu release and look forward to watching what you create with it. Best regards, The Muvizu team
