The presentation of this software is professional looking . Don't know that much about lua nor java script. Screenshots(features) looks very cool. Few tips - zipped / html version + exe, attached manual (F1 didn't work)/ video demonstration, EULA ( don't know i missed it or not ). Nice.
Thank you appreciate you looking at it and giving us your insights.
You spot on about the F1 help and also an EULA. We really need to get those done and in.
I am not sure what you HTML version attached, did you mean the help?
Html means, if you're using any framework that support to make / convert to html of your tool will help you get more review and easy to engage ( for jam , for final exe or online tool both works). Hope this helps.
I understand now. There is not facili6to export to HTML. But we will include exe and zip movong forward. Have already seen that the installation caused some issues.
Honestly, I dont clearly understood, how it tool work.
But sreens are very promising and remind me Articy Draft.
Also I think, that better if we can choose installation folder and if we have some instruction/help/manual.
But, tool seems like a great thing in near future. Good work!
Thank you for checking it out. We will look at improving the messaging so the use case’s are clearer it’s useful to know that is not coming across well.
We have noted the installation limitations and are investigating how we can solve that with the tool chain we using.
Probably the coolest tool so far. Only problem I have is with the installer. I don't really want it on my C drive.
Thanks so much for the compliments.
I agree man hate when project force that. The installation is build with a tool that ends up using WiX I need to allow more advanced settings. Thanks for highlighting that.
Very cool tool! Kind of like what I made, but more focused on items and more customizable (a GOB could be a dialog option too!)
I feel like there is a bit of a learning curve, but it can model surprisingly complex scenarios!
Well done! 😃
Thanks for the feedback. Definitely diakog design and editing was definitely one of the design inspirations.
I agree the learning curve is steep, we need to see how we can make that smoother. Sample projects and hints and of course more comprehensive documentation.
We hope to build this into a single flexible place to capture most any sort if game data.
A promising tool! This is one I’ll have to keep my eye on.
Thank you.
We know there is a lot we still need do to get it more useful. We welcome ideas that will help us make it more useful.
Your docs completely sell the idea, but you should probably mention how to actually add GOBs and views. Clicking on one tiny title was not my first intuition. Anyways, good idea for a program regardless. I mostly like the idea of coding your own export tool (that way it works with any game engine and such).
Thanks BarryArray,
I will try add some step by step parts to help people get into the tool.
I really wanted to try but after i try to open the exe file, nothing appears and Windows configuration instantly disappears.
Oh man, that’s not good. I retested it here one thing I notice is Windows 11 did try block it the first time since it was downloaded. Not sure if that is what you seeing.
What version of Windows are you using?
There is a zip of the tool downloadable from our web page (It is the exact same version as the jam one, just not an installer. If you could test that one to see that at least it runs and we just dealing with an installation issue it would be appreciated. InfomanceForge)
Thanks
Yea, now it worked! I've downloaded from your website. Also mine os is win11. There might be a problem with setup in your jam version.
