Just to report the chm now has the content section showing up correctly and the links to self in a topic are also fixed.

If someone wants to contribute writing about the AGS Editor, the manual still has empty sections

Maybe you can use some other language (python?) to generate the ags script functions to read things and write in your variables and vice-versa. (I do that to create classes from json for c++ with quicktype and boost for a completely unrelated project)

Honestly feels like a lack of some dictionary like type will make harder to write this in a pretty way.

Sometime ago I pursued something similar here (I never finished but maybe there is something useful for you in the discussion):

I linked the file on the previous comment 

Here are magical lines for packing tar.gz on Windows, for Linux, preserving the permissions. Requires having 7z.exe on path.

Code: batch

pushd %AGSGAMEPROJECT%\Compiled\Linux && 7z a -ttar -so archive.tar . | 7z a -si agsAwardsLinux.tar.gz && popd

Clicking on Download page from the main website goes to here:

https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/ags/

But a lot of the contents are not really updated.

AGA, would you be ok with having some webpage for downloads built on github to be cloned there? I feel it could easen the update process for that particular page.

Steam supports binary patching, so it usually can make the downloads works with one big file, providing it has some logic - my experience with ags is the diff is rarely big, a new room hits 3 MB and not 900 MB when updating... But for other systems, if something needs to be updated, they DON'T support binary patching, so separate files are preferable.

Sorry, I am myself from south america too (maybe assuming too much here from your linked game name) and have had a ton of problems with lacking accents on pixel fonts, so when you said the things were working erratically, my guess was it worked where the font had the accents and it didn't where it didn't have. Anyway, I haven't attempted translations yet, but the ANSI thing CW is pointing is probably what's killing your file. I couldn't verify because your game doesn't have it but I noticed the Leeme.txt is UTF-8, so maybe.

I get an error when trying to read VisualStudioDark.json:

Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Error parsing comment. Expected: *. Line 732, position 31.

It appears it doesn't support comments. AGS itself uses the same json parser, so maybe it's just a missing option.

You can maybe check which channels has something playing and then use tween to also lower volumes.

I have done something using tween module and gui for custom transition and use timer module for timer, but I never used speech.

Uhm, just a curiosity, are you sure the fonts you are using support the characters you are trying to print?

Also, can you make a minimal game where your problem happens? Just create an empty game and do a display with translation and use the fonts you are using.

Is this our new local meme?

Yes!

About the actual project, that's a damn good README, I want to dive into the code soon, because I want to understand how the ini options were created. Very cool seeing the code!

Look it up on Google

You are Swedish, Blondbraid ?

Darkman ?

Come hangout with us on IRC AGA,

The Invisible Man?

Couldn't we have also a small icon to IRC at top?
