June 9 2025 build
It contains only the files in SVN, and can be safely downloaded to your computer. |
It contains good information related to Skyscraper Simulator. |
This build has a number of important fixes, and some new features. Since the Skyscraper 2.1 codebase has the new intro music, I added an intro music volume option to the INI file, and backported this to 2.0. I'm in the process of working more on the Glass Tower building, and started doing some ceiling fixes in the side complex structures. Walls were not fully movable objects before, I fixed this and so now you should have much more control over wall positioning in the Move Object window. The original native file selection dialog has been brought back, as an option in the INI file. If this is used, is provides a more advanced Load Building dialog. See the "Skyscraper.Frontend.SelectBuildingNative" in the INI file for this. To deal with situations where there might be unwanted sounds in the simulator that won't turn off (such as elevator motors), I added a basic sound enable/disable option, that lets you forcefully turn off sounds when needed (you can use this in the Sound Manager window).
Some fairly serious bugs were fixed, they were regressions from the main menu code rework. The FMOD reverb is now reset when returning to the main menu, this will fix an issue where the simulator's reverb would stay active. I fixed an issue where the simulator wouldn't fully return to the main menu and leave the screen black, by making sure VM's loadstart state is properly reset.
