Tidalis:0.854 Beta Release

New & Updated Levels

• A number of small tweaks have been made to the Sampler levels, most notably to their text.

Misc

• The font sizes on the game over popup have been increased to be more readable like those on the before-level popup.

• Some improvements have been made to the fonts used to increase readability and avoid cutoff of the text in certain circumstances.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where, on Windows in particular, sometimes the game was using the incorrect folder for reading and writing settings, etc.
  • If this causes your settings to get reset, we apologize for that; but it will also solve your settings seeming to be lost every time you update your game, if you were seeing that issue. You can get the old settings back by looking in the following locations:
    • Vista/Windows 7:
      • C:\Users\(your windows username)\AppData\Local\Tidalis
    • Windows XP:
      • C:\Documents and Settings\(your windows username)\Local Settings\Tidalis
  • If your settings are missing, most likely your savegames are, as well. You can just copy the Save folder and the settings.dat folder over to be inside the RuntimeData inside your Tidalis install folder, and you're all good. The default folders for that are:
    • Vista/Windows 7:
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Tidalis\RuntimeData
    • Windows XP:
  • C:\Program Files\Tidalis\RuntimeData
  • Again if this bugfix causes you any inconvenience, we do apologize. It's definitely for the best in the long-term.
