SilverCreator is a new card-based game and application development system from SilverNetworks! SilverCreator lets you express your ideas quickly, easily, and freely.
You can even sell your programs, because theres no royalties. Sprites, movies, sound, and more let you create a multimedia rich game.
Scripting, Methods and functions let you create a modern game easily. 2-player ONLINE games are easy, with built-in game socket support. And with click-areas and keyboard support, theres so much more.
Enhancements:
- Sound support has been expanded. First, STOPSOUND will now stop all sounds currently playing, unless you specify which sound to stop in the command, i.e, STOPSOUND "Gun". Also, LOOPSOUND can now loop a specific sound if you specify it. If no sound is specified, the sound which was played last will be looped. Additionally, SOUNDPLAYING now returns true if any sound is playing, unless you specify which sound, and if you do, only if that sound is playing will SOUNDPLAYING return TRUE. Finally, PLAY has been depreciated, and PLAYSOUND should be used instead.
- - Added a new compiling window. When you choose Compile from the Special window, this new window will appear and let you select which platforms you want to support, and allow you to enter in your games version, creator code, and info text. When you click Compile, SilverCreator will ask you where to save each program and then compile the program(s). In the future this window will let you paste the icon you want to use on your program. Also includes a new option to make .sit files of your games. DropStuff required.
- - Significantly redesigned button, click-area, card setup, and game setup windows. These new windows are non-modal and follow Aqua HIG guidelines. You can now open multiple button, click-area, and card setup windows, each editing a different thing. You can even edit buttons and click-areas on cards other than the one currently being displayed in the editor!
- - Fixed INPUT command bugs which let you manipulate text which should not be manipulatable: Placing the cursor outside of the editable area now moves it back into the editable area, Select All now selects only the editable area, and selecting part of the editable area and some uneditable text will change the selection to only the part of the editable text that is selected.
- - Fixed the splash screen on OS X preventing double-clicked project files from loading if SilverCreator was previously closed (ie, double-clicking the project file caused SilverCreator to launch). This also removes the splash screen flicker on OS 9 where you would see the splash screen for a split second followed by the project window.
- - The filter windows have been touched up a bit. The exact center of the card image is now always visible in the preview area, and if you resize the window, you can see the whole image, but you will no longer see white area because the window can no longer be resized bigger than what is necessary to show the image.
- - Various scripting commands have changed. For example, INITSPRITE is now CREATESPRITE. Several other commands have also changed. SilverCreator will automatically convert all old syntax to the new syntax and will let you know if any syntax was changed. Please read the Help window for the new syntax.
- - Fixed additional or incorrect error dialogs, crashing, and/or failed assertions occuring after error dialogs caused by syntax errors or invalid values in values passed to scripting commands. The majority of commands in SilverCreator were affected. This should fix most scripting-related crashes.
- - Close widget in the game editor window is now active. Closing the window asks to save changes. If the window is ultimately closed, either by successfully saving, or clicking "Dont Save", then SilverCreator will act like it does when clicking "Nothing" or "Cancel" in the splash dialog.
- - The "save your changes before closing/quitting" dialog is now more accurate. In some cases it would have shown up even when no modifications had been made, and in other cases it might not have shown up after manipulating card text, sounds, or sprites, causing potential data loss.
- - Most read only functions, including SPRITEX, SPRITEY, WINDOWLEFT, and WINDOWTOP are now settable. This means you can use code such as "LET SPRITEX(1) = 50" to move around sprites and "LET WINDOWLEFT = 200" to move around the window.
- - Fixed visual problems which temporarily occured when first seeing the running/compiled game window on Mac OS X. This includes a bug where extra buttons would be shown in the game window if an ALERT was shown in the Open event of the beginning card.
- - The game editor window now has a proxy icon and, on Mac OS X, now displays the red dot in the close widget if modifications have been made since the last time you saved. On Mac OS 9, the proxy icon will be dimmed when modifications have been made.
- - Fixed a terribly peculiar bug where after a scripting error in a click-area, the script might be replaced with either "RuntimeViewWindow" or a bunch of random garbage, or the program might have just quit or freeze up the computer.
- - Fixed a cosmetic bug in the Sprite Editor which caused the "i-beam" cursor to inappropriately display when the mouse was in the picture area, and caused a blinking dot to appear in the corner of the picture area when you clicked on it.
- - Added SELECT CASE support! SELECT CASE is similar to IF... THEN but you can check many different values against the value you are checking while only using one SELECT CASE block. See the built-in help window for examples.
- - Includes new method for including runtimes in SilverCreators data fork. This allows Stuffit to be more efficient when compressing resulting in a smaller download size, and also fixes situations with people losing their runtimes.
- - Fixed various commands not accepting a variable for the boolean part. So, if you set a variable to TRUE, and then tried to pass the variable to these commands, it would not work and instead would act as if you had passed FALSE.
- - Fixed various sprite and socket commands not handling commas correctly. This would cause these commands to break if, for example, you used something such as "MOVESPRITE 1, SOMEMETHOD("48,56"), 59".
- - Added SPRITETOUCHINGXY function that returns true if a sprite is touching an X, Y coordinate! For example, to see if sprite 5 is touching at 52, 60, you might use "IF SPRITETOUCHINGXY(5, 52, 60) = TRUE THEN".
- - Fixed an error handling bug which caused some game functions to continue running after a scripting error in an Open Card or Close Card event. This would cause additional fatal errors and/or unexpected behavior.
- - Added Script Formatting button to the script editor window! Just click this button to reformat your script into an easier to read format thats great for fixing bugs and understanding other peoples code.
- - Fixed HUGE memory leak which caused games with a lot of card changing to quickly fill up large amounts of RAM. This will greatly reduce the required memory for games, especially on the classic Mac OS.
- - Fixed a significant long-standing IF...THEN handling code bug that caused the code after ELSE to occur when the code before ELSE should occur, and there was no code before ELSE (and after the IF...THEN).
- - Fixed close and quit events still being executed after a game error on Mac OS 8 and above on PPC, or on Mac OS X. This caused erratic behavior and/or additional errors. 68K and System 7 were not affected.
- - Faster Sprites! The Simple Test Games "Sprite Test" and "Optimized Sprites" are both 26% faster versus SilverCreator v1.1!
- - Added SETWINDOWTITLE command and WINDOWTITLE$ function. The function is both gettable and settable, meaning you can set it with the LET command and the windows title will actually change.
- - Fixed KILLSPRITE not completely removing the sprite from memory. This meant sprite commands could still call on the sprite number even though it was supposed to be completely gone.
- - Improved project saving and game compiling speed by as much as 220% in some instances, and improved project and compiled game loading speed by as much as 30% in some instances.
- - Fixed minor drawing bug which caused a border of the game windows background color to be drawn inside of the text field frame. This was noticable if the background color was not white.
- - Added a new preferences option, "Open filter windows at full size". When selected, all graphics filter windows will open at their maximum size, which shows all of the image.
- - Added SPRITESTOUCHING function that returns true if two sprites are touching! Just indicate the two sprites, for example, "IF SPRITESTOUCHING(2, 3) = TRUE THEN".
- - Added two ways to move the window around: by using LET to assign WINDOWLEFT or WINDOWTOP the desired coordinate, or by using the new MOVEWINDOW command.
- - Fixed a bug in the internal script optimizer which left extra spaces at the end of a scripting line if the end of the line had a comment which was prefixed with spaces.
- - Fixed the font faces, sizes, styles, and colors menu items being inconsistently checkmarked much of the time. Now the items should be appropriately checkmarked.
- - Internal script optimizer now trims non breaking spaces as well as regular spaces. This fixes an uncommon bug where perfectly fine looking code would not work.
- - Fixed scripting errors that occured if you used REM at the end of a scripting line but REM was not captialized, ie., "LET x = 5 rem This command sets x to 5".
- - The game about window has been redesigned and now resizes to fit the about window text, meaning you can now fit more text (but only up to 255 characters).
- - Now supports compiling PPC and OS X games which are larger than 16MB. Previously, this would cause the compiled game to be corrupted and not work.
- - Added sprite flipping! Use the XFLIPSPRITE and YFLIPSPRITE commands to flip a sprite horizontally (X), vertically (Y), or a combination of the two.
- - Added SPRITEWIDTH and SPRITEHEIGHT functions that tell you the width or height of a sprite. Changes in the sprite, such as scaling, are considered.
- - Fixed a problem where custom methods that started with "REM" would not work, because they would be mistakenly filtered out by the pre-parser.
- - Added a new floating info window that tells you the width and height of the card picture, and the X and Y values of the mouse relative to the picture.
- - Fixed game text field not being scrolled to the top when changing cards. This should fix the text sometimes being clipped off or not visible at all.
- - Added "Clear" button to the Button Editor. This allows you to clear all data associated with that button, including the caption, script, sound, etc.
- - The version number and get info text that you enter are now actually used to make a vers resource (and a plist on Mac OS X) for your game.
- - Fixed a bug which caused the KeyDown event to be incorrectly executed twice for most keys if the text field was visible and had the focus.
- - Added pencil and brush painting tools. The brush will use the line width setting chosen. The pencil will always use one pixel width.
- - Click-areas in the game editor are now translucent! Now you can easily see whats beneath a click-area without having to move it.
- - Fixed the sound rename dialog being limited to 32 characters. SilverCreator can handle sounds with names up to 255 characters.
- - Scripts that repetitively call commands that accept multiple values are now faster on Mac OS X due to a new caching algorithm.
- - Fixed game continuing to run and causing unexpected behavior after executing an IF statement that didnt have THEN at the end.
- - Added BEGIN COMMENTS/END COMMENTS. Anything between these two lines is ignored and is not included in compiled games.
- - Fixed a minor internal bug in various parts of the scripting code that caused an integer variable with no name to be created.
- - Mac OS X compiled games are now fully supported on Mac OS 8.6 and up with CarbonLib, as well as Mac OS X (10.1 and up).
- - Choosing "other color" in the graphics or text color pickers will now load the previously chosen color into the color picker.
- - You can now play a looping sound just by checking the new "Looping" checkbox in the click-area, button, or card editors!
- - You can now hold down option while drawing a box, rounded box, or circle, in order to create a proportional figure.
- - Fixed NilObjectException error if you tried to access an uncreated socket. Now a more appropriate error is given.
- - Fixed FILETYPE$ and FILECREATOR$ not processing strings correctly, making them generally useless until now.
- - Added sprite scaling! Use the SCALESPRITE command to set the percentage of the scale for the sprite passed.
- - Sprite Manager, Sound Manager, and About Window editor are now integrated into the Game Setup window.
- - The compiling status box is now more verbose. It now tells you which stage of compilation is taking place.
- - Fixed carbon compiled games possibly crashing on quit by adding ".app" to end of carbon game names.
- - Added documentation for UPARROW$, DOWNARROW$, LEFTARROW$, RIGHTARROW$, and ESCKEY$.
- - Fixed the Help window text field not scrolled to the top when changing the help topic on Mac OS X.
- - Fixed previous card text overwriting current card text when turning off wide picture mode.
- - Added PROMPT function (exactly like PROMPT$ but the input field only accepts numbers).
- - Fixed CAUTIONALERT and NOTEALERT using the note icon instead of their respective icons.
- - You can no longer open the help window or other windows like that while in Run mode.
- - Fixed a longstanding bug that randomly caused the picture to be erased while drawing.
- - The "Platformer" example has been updated, enhanced, and optimized. Check it out.
- - Added more internal error handling to should give more accurate error messages.
- - The add graphic window now shows how the graphic will look in the game window.
- - Improved error dialog when entering an invalid card into the Go To Card window.
- - "Darker" and "Tint" graphics filters are now faster and use much less memory.
- - Added a warning dialog if you try to import a MIDI file into the Sound Manager.
- - Added Other Font Size option to the Format menu and the Place Text window.
- - You can now resize click-areas! Hold down option to reveal the resize box.
- - Added COMMANDKEY, CONTROLKEY, OPTIONKEY, and SHIFTKEY functions.
- - Fixed movie looping not being turned off after loading another movie.
- - Redesigned the Place Text, method editor, and add graphic windows.
- - The INPUT command now moves the cursor to the end of the field.

The Zope Object Database provides an object-oriented database for Python that provides a high-degree of transparency.
Applications can take advantage of object database features with few, if any, changes to application logic. ZODB includes features such as a plugable storage interface, rich transaction support, and undo.
The components you get with the ZODB release are as follows:
- Core ZODB, including the persistence machinery
- Standard storages such as FileStorage
- The persistent BTrees modules
- ZEO, for scalability needs
- documentation (needs more work)
ZODBs primary development platforms are Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows XP.

System requirements:
-

Enhancements
New Features (in more or less reverse chronological order):
- The Database class now has an xrefs keyword argument and a corresponding allow-implicit-cross-references configuration option. which default to true. When set to false, cross-database references are disallowed.
- As a convenience, the connection root method for returning teh root object can now also be used as an object with attributes mapped to the root-object keys.
- Databases have a new method, transaction, that can be used with the Python (2.5 and later) with statement
- This uses a private transaction manager for the connection. If control exists the block without an error, the transaction is committed, otherwise, it is aborted.
- Convenience functions ZODB.connection and ZEO.connection provide a convenient way to open a connection to a database. They open a database and return a connection to it. When the connection is closed, the database is closed as well.
- The ZODB.config databaseFrom... methods now support multi-databases. If multiple zodb sections are used to define multiple databases, the databases are connected in a multi-database arrangement and the first of the defined databases is returned.
The zeopack script has gotten a number of improvements:
- Simplified command-line interface. (The old interface is still supported, except that support for ZEO version 1 servers has been dropped.)
- Multiple storages can be packed in sequence.
- This simplifies pack scheduling on servers serving multiple databases.
- All storages are packed to the same time.
- You can now specify a time of day to pack to.
- The script will now time out if it cant connect to s storage in 60 seconds.
- The connection now estimates the object size based on its pickle size and informs the cache about size changes.
- The database got additional configurations options (cache-size-bytes and historical-cache-size-bytes) to limit the cache size based on the estimated total size of cached objects. The default values are 0 which has the interpretation "do not limit based on the total estimated size". There are corresponding methods to read and set the new configuration parameters.
- Connections now have a public opened attribute that is true when the connection is open, and false otherwise. When true, it is the seconds since the epoch (time.time()) when the connection was opened. This is a renaming of the previous _opened private variable.
- FileStorage now supports blobs directly.
- You can now control whether FileStorages keep .old files when packing.
- POSKeyErrors are no longer logged by ZEO servers, because they are really client errors.
- A new storage interface, IExternalGC, to support external garbage collection, http://wiki.zope.org/ZODB/ExternalGC, has been defined and implemented for FileStorage and ClientStorage.
- As a small convenience (mainly for tests), you can now specify initial data as a string argument to the Blob constructor.
- ZEO Servers now provide an option, invalidation-age, that allows quick verification of ZEO clients less than a given age even if the number of transactions the client hasnt seen exceeds the invalidation queue size. This is only recommended if the storage being served supports effecient iteration from a point near the end of the transaction history.
- The FileStorage iterator now handles large files better. When iteratng from a starting transaction near the end of the file, the iterator will scan backward from the end of the file to find the starting point. This enhancement makes it practical to take advantage of the new storage server invalidation-age option.
- Previously, database connections were managed as a stack. This tended to cause the same connection(s) to be used over and over. For example, the most used conection would typically be the onlyt connection used. In some rare situations, extra connections could be opened and end up on the top of the stack, causing extreme memory wastage. Now, when connections are placed on the stack, they sink below existing connections that have more active objects.
- There is a new pool-timeout database configuration option to specify that connections unused after the given time interval should be garbage colection. This will provide a means of dealing with extra connections that are created in rare circumstances and that would consume an unreasonable amount of memory.
- The Blob open method now supports a new mode, c, to open committed data for reading as an ordinary file, rather than as a blob file. The ordinary file may be used outside the current transaction and even after the blobs database connection has been closed.
- ClientStorage now provides blob cache management. When using non-shared blob directories, you can set a target cache size and the cache will periodically be reduced try to keep it below the target size.
- The client blob directory layout has changed. If you have existing non-shared blob directories, you will have to remove them.
- ZODB 3.9 ZEO clients can connect to ZODB 3.8 servers. ZODB ZEO clients from ZODB 3.2 on can connect to ZODB 3.9 servers.
- When a ZEO cache is stale and would need verification, a ZEO.interfaces.StaleCache event is published (to zope.event). Applications may handle this event and take action such as exiting the application without verifying the cache or starting cold.
- Theres a new convenience function, ZEO.DB, for creating databases using ZEO Client Storages. Just call ZEO.DB with the same arguments you would otherwise pass to ZEO.ClientStorage.ClientStorage.
- Object saves are a little faster
- When configuring storages in a storage server, the storage name now defaults to "1". In the overwhelmingly common case that a single storage, the name can now be ommitted.
- FileStorage now provides optional garbage collection. A gc keyword option can be passed to the pack method. A false value prevents garbage collection.
- The FileStorage constructor now provides a boolean pack_gc option, which defaults to True, to control whether garbage collection is performed when packing by default. This can be overridden with the gc option to the pack method.
- The ZConfig configuration for FileStorage now includes a pack-gc option, corresponding to the pack_gc constructor argument.
- The FileStorage constructor now has a packer keyword argument that allows an alternative packer to be supplied.
- The ZConfig configuration for FileStorage now includes a packer option, corresponding to the packer constructor argument.
- MappingStorage now supports multi-version concurrency control and iteration and provides a better storage implementation example.
DemoStorage has a number of new features:
- The ability to use a separate storage, such as a file storage to store changes
- Blob support
- Multi-version concurrency control and iteration
- Explicit support dfor demo-storage stacking via push and pop methods.
- Wen calling ZODB.DB to create a database, you can now pass a file name, rather than a storage to use a file storage.
Added support for copying and recovery of blob storages:
- Added a helper function, ZODB.blob.is_blob_record for testing whether a data record is for a blob. This can be used when iterating over a storage to detect blob records so that blob data can be copied. In the future, we may want to build this into a blob-aware iteration interface, so that records get blob file attributes automatically.
- Added the IBlobStorageRestoreable interfaces for blob storages that support recovery via a restoreBlob method.
- Updated ZODB.blob.BlobStorage to implement IBlobStorageRestoreable and to have a copyTransactionsFrom method that also copies blob data.
- New ClientStorage configuration option drop_cache_rather_verify. If this option is true then the ZEO client cache is dropped instead of the long (unoptimized) verification. For large caches, setting this option can avoid effective downtimes in the order of hours when the connection to the ZEO server was interrupted for a longer time.
- Cleaned-up the storage iteration API and provided an iterator implementation for ZEO.
- Versions are no-longer supported.
- Document conflict resolution (see ZODB/ConflictResolution.txt).
- Support multidatabase references in conflict resolution.
- Make it possible to examine oid and (in some situations) database name of persistent object references during conflict resolution.
- Moved the transaction module out of ZODB. ZODB depends upon this module, but it must be installed separately.
- ZODB installation now requires setuptools.
- Added offset information to output of fstail script. Added test harness for this script.
- Added support for read-only, historical connections based on datetimes or serials (TIDs). See src/ZODB/historical_connections.txt.
- Removed the ThreadedAsync module.
- Now depend on zc.lockfile
Bugs Fixed:
- fixed Python 2.6 compatibility issue with ZEO/zeoserverlog.py
- using hashlib.sha1 if available in order to avoid DeprecationWarning under Python 2.6
- made runzeo -h work
- The monitor server didnt correctly report the actual number of clients.
- Packing could return spurious errors due to errors notifying disconnected clients of new database size statistics.
- Undo sometimes failed for FileStorages configured to support blobs.
- Starting ClientStorages sometimes failed with non-new but empty cache files.
- The history method on ZEO clients failed.
- Fix for bug #251037: Make packing of blob storages non-blocking.
- Fix for bug #220856: Completed implementation of ZEO authentication.
- Fix for bug #184057: Make initialisation of small ZEO client file cache sizes not fail.
- Fix for bug #184054: MappingStorage used to raise a KeyError during load instead of a POSKeyError.
- Fixed bug in Connection.TmpStore: load() would not defer to the backend storage for loading blobs.
- Fix for bug #181712: Make ClientStorage update lastTransaction directly after connecting to a server, even when no cache verification is necessary.
- Fixed bug in blob filesystem helper: the isSecure check was inversed.
- Fixed bug in transaction buffer: a tuple was unpacked incorrectly in clear.
- Bugfix the situation in which comparing persistent objects (for instance, as members in BTree set or keys of BTree) might cause data inconsistency during conflict resolution.
- Fixed bug 153316: persistent and BTrees were using int for memory sizes which caused errors on x86_64 Intel Xeon machines (using 64-bit Linux).
- Fixed small bug that the Connection.isReadOnly method didnt work after a savepoint.
- Bug #98275: Made ZEO cache more tolerant when invalidating current versions of objects.
- Fixed a serious bug that could cause client I/O to stop (hang). This was accomonied by a critical log message along the lines of: "RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration".
- Fixed bug #127182: Blobs were subclassable which was not desired.
- Fixed bug #126007: tpc_abort had untested code path that was broken.
- Fixed bug #129921: getSize() function in BlobStorage could not deal with garbage files
- Fixed bug in which MVCC would not work for blobs.
- Fixed bug in ClientCache that occurred with objects larger than the total cache size.
- When an error occured attempting to lock a file and logging of said error was enabled.
- FileStorages previously saved indexes after a certain number of writes. This was done during the last phase of two-phase commit, which made this critical phase more subject to errors than it should have been. Also, for large databases, saves were done so infrequently as to be useless. The feature was removed to reduce the chance for errors during the last phase of two-phase commit.
- File storages previously kept an internal object id to transaction id mapping as an optimization. This mapping caused excessive memory usage and failures during the last phase of two-phase commit. This optimization has been removed.
- Refactored handling of invalidations on ZEO clients to fix a possible ordering problem for invalidation messages.
- On many systems, it was impossible to create more than 32K blobs. Added a new blob-directory layout to work around this limitation.
- Fixed bug that could lead to memory errors due to the use of a Python dictionary for a mapping that can grow large.
- Fixed bug #251037: Made packing of blob storages non-blocking.
- Fixed a bug that could cause InvalidObjectReference errors for objects that were explicitly added to a database if the object was modified after a savepoint that added the object.
- Fixed several bugs that caused ZEO cache corruption when connecting to servers. These bugs affected both persistent and non-persistent caches.
- Improved the the ZEO client shutdown support to try to avoid spurious errors on exit, especially for scripts, such as zeopack.
- Packing failed for databases containing cross-database references.
- Cross-database references to databases with empty names werent constructed properly.
- The zeo client cache used an excessive amount of memory, causing applications with large caches to exhaust available memory.
Fixed a number of bugs in the handling of persistent ZEO caches:
- Cache records are written in several steps. If a process exits after writing begins and before it is finishes, the cache will be corrupt on restart. The way records are writted was changed to make cache record updates atomic.
- There was no lock file to prevent opening a cache multiple times at once, which would lead to corruption. Persistent caches now use lock files, in the same way that file storages do.
- A bug in the cache-opening logic led to cache failure in the unlikely event that a cache has no free blocks.
- When using ZEO Client Storages, Errors occured when trying to store objects too big to fit in the ZEO cache file.
- Fixed bug in blob filesystem helper: the isSecure check was inversed.
- Fixed bug in transaction buffer: a tuple was unpacked incorrectly in clear.
- Fixed bug in Connection.TmpStore: load() would not defer to the backend storage for loading blobs.
- Fixed bug #190884: Wrong reference to POSKeyError caused NameError.
- Completed implementation of ZEO authentication. This fixes issue 220856.
