eidos 0.1.7

What's new in 0.1.7

• macOS: 3D scenes draw again. The title screen's Reshiram, the new game's house scene and the starter choice showed as a flat white or green screen. 3D edge smoothing is off on macOS for now.
• macOS: choosing your ROM no longer crashes the game.
• Remaster battles: about 150 battle places now have a camera placed and checked by hand, so the battle shows the right part of the map. Story battles start where the player stands.
• Remaster battle menus: your Pokemon's HP plate stays at the bottom right, and the actions and moves show as a small grid above it, in each move's type colour. Moves use their modern names (Double Slap, Dragon Breath).
• Remaster starter choice: the gift box in widescreen, the game's own text, and a small box with the Pokemon's animated sprite in the close-up. Its cry plays when the close-up opens.
• Remaster intro: the trainer choice keeps the DS frame, and the flight over the house fills the window.
• Remaster menus: menus and apps open and close with smooth fades, with no flashes or black frames, and going back to the menu from an app is quick. The menu icons are the game's own sprites. The Pokedex shows each Pokemon's animated sprite and opens with a short animation. The interface has more room in small windows such as 1280x720.
• Launcher: Play shows when a new version is out, and Settings has a ROMs section for Black and White.
• Settings: values no longer overlap their arrows, and long text such as the mods folder is shortened to fit small windows. The CONTINUE card on the title menu keeps its cut corner.
• Downloads: the macOS launcher is a disk image (.dmg) with a READ ME FIRST file for the first start, and each release has one file per download.
