Zoom 1.1.1 July 27th, 2007

Well, it seems that some of the new features in Zoom 1.1.0 had a few of the usual .0 release issues. I’m not sure how I managed to miss that TADS 3 games were failing to save.

Zoom 1.1.1 fixes these issues and adds many new features to the plug-in system so now Glulx, TADS and Hugo games all get the same save-game features as Z-Code games, at least as far as is possible with their respective interpreters.

Read on for the complete change log. Zoom 1.1.1 is brought to you by the revision number 2691.

Fix for black-on-black issue in Zoom 1.1.0 July 9th, 2007

The X11 version of Zoom 1.1.0 has an issue that can cause it to appear black on black. Oops: this was caused by a new preference in the OS X version not having an equivalent in the X11 version.

I’ve made a patch for this problem, which you can download here.

(Updated 13/07/07 to fix a further issue which could result in some games now having psychedelic colours. Sigh.)
