WinAGI v3.0.0 BETA is now officially AVAILABLE!

[AGKorson]

Here it is at last:
https://github.com/AGKorson/WinAGI-GDS/releases/tag/v3.0.0-beta.2
(edit: this should work on all Windows systems now)

I would greatly appreciate any feedback. Feel free to either post an issue to the git page, or leave a comment here on the forum.

I forgot to mention one of the biggest additions to this version- it is 100% compatible with original Sierra syntax. It will compile all the original source code that has been made available. So if you want to go retro and program like it's 1985, WinAGI is for you.

I've installed it. Unfortunately, trying to run it gives the error "This app can't run on your PC", the same error that appears when trying to run a 16-bit program in 64-bit Windows. I think something's wrong with the installer or the executable.

Sorry about that. I didnt' realize the build was targeting ARM instead of x86. Turns out that lets it install on a Surface laptop (which I use for development), but not on other Windows systems.

I recompiled and rebuilt the installer. It should work now. Can you please try it again?

thx,

Okay, now it's working. I've updated my AGI3 remasters of Residence 44 Quest, Tonight the Shrieking Corpses Bleed, and all the Tex McPhilip games. I should play-test them again to make sure nothing broke.

Thankyou for this! Can't wait to try it!

Beta.2 is now the current build. It fixes several issues with filenames not working correctly, namely the NewGame, OpenGame and ExportResource functions. Link in the title post has been adjusted.

Minor error from me - the .msi file is called "WinAGI.installer.msi" but setup.exe is looking for "WinAGI Installer.msi".

Slightly bigger error - when opening a previous .wag file it updates the logic files and places those in a backup folder, but copying those files back into the src folder is giving me a "invalid or corrupt game property file (AGI.wag)" in WinAGI 2.3.7.
