Up Topic Gosu / Gosu News / Gosu 0.7.12 released!
- By jlnr (dev) Date 2009-02-08 15:16
Gosu 0.7.12 has been released yesterday and so far I have gotten no further error reports, so I hope everything's working fine!

This release was again heavily driven by fixing problems that arose during gaming competitions.

• Added Song and Sample looping
• Added Song#pause, #paused? and SampleInstance?#pause, paused?, resume
• Added Window::setMousePosition/set_mouse_position/mouse_x=/mouse_y=
• All: Gosu::angle_diff() fixed
• Mac: Window::close/Window#close now closes the Window immediately, not after the next event happens (thanks BackupBrian!)
• C++: Added Gosu::zImmediate (bypasses Z ordering)
• Win: Improved timing code
• Win: Automatically link against Windows' socket libraries

The next release will focus on the graphics component, which will likely be completely rewritten in order to be efficient enough for complex iPhone games. I doubt that I can officially support the iPhone port, but improved performance always sounds like a good thing.

Another thing that I will take a look at are the great contributions from the forums, like the all-in-one RMagick bundle as well as the Ruby 1.9 and Mac/Windows SDL_mixer versions of Gosu, to see what I can merge into my release process or link from within the docs. You guys rock! :)

Also, I've updated the MSVC projects to the 2008 format. If that breaks stuff for anyone, let me know. I just wanted to test 08 and am not really impressed anyway. (How hard can it be to get rid of the ugly plain-text output window?)

Dastardly Julian! Just when I finish working on the Gosu build process and get back to working on my game, you improve Gosu!

I'll let you know how the new version builds for me in a couple of days.

None of this should be in any way taken as saying I don't appreciate the updates, as I most certainly do! Thanks for your hard work!

(Also, nice look for the forums)

I've started to get an error since updating. I'm not sure if its something I'm doing or not (as it does feel out of the blue)

after a few runs of a gosu program I get this error in a white dialog box titled "Run Focused Unit Test"
Error: This doesn't appear to be a TestCase or spec

which is right, its not. the only way I can get rid of it is to reboot the computer. and again after sometime the error will appear again.

PS: on mac

UPDATE: it does seem to reset it self after abit without restarting
