Makelangelo software update v7.3.0-alpha

2016-01-19 Dan

This update for the Makelangelo software contains many new features and UI improvements.

Current translations are out of date. Please submit your translations so that we can share with everyone.

Changes:

  • Streamlined user experience
  • Removes artwork that broke some dialogs
  • Supports localized fonts for text generation
  • Decouples many classes for cleaner, simpler heirarchy
  • Improves preview of machine
  • Shows long image calculations as they are happening (less mystifying)
  • Adds Sandy Noble style
  • Adds some fractal generators

The English translations file can be found here. Please translate only the elements >value<like this>/value<.

Once this update has translations it will become the new official release and the master branch of the software will be updated.

I’m a Makelangelo believer. It’s everything STEM is supposed to be. STEM is so huge in the states, that the term is often used to get attention. Makelangelo is the real deal.

We couldn’t say it better ourselves. Thanks, Paul. You rock!
