Beuc, that tireless pioneer trying to make Dink accessible to the entire world, has updated DFArc 3.

The main feature this time is the ability to run the game and the editor at the same time, however there is also improved performance, six new languages and some other fixes.

Of course, the source code is also available should you want some bedtime reading.

Awesome, now if only Beuc made a resolution settings, at least for 4:3 aspect ratio and make it compatible with FreeDink only.

4:3 aspect ratio will be properly implemented in the next FreeDink.
If you want to beta-test: http://www.beuc.net/tmp/freedink-109.0-bin.zip

Schweet, but one problem. It does not play any music, at least when i am using Timidity++ in Windows 7. Now only the resolution setup is needed. Ya know, for high quality videos.

I didn't know you could use Timidity++ under windows, you have to explain me how to do that

The resolution stays the same now, the Dink graphics are automatically scaled on your graphic card, so you already have your best resolution (though... we don't have any kind of "high quality videos" in Dink I think ).

Mayhem crashes both the engine and the editor (when previewing) on screen 70 with an error code -805306369.

Thanks for the report - apparently there's a sprite with height=0 somewhere there, which caused a weird resize ratio, and SDL2 is less tolerant to this.
Fixed, new version available at the same place

All i have to do is just download this version of Timidity++ and install everything in there, even drivers. After restarting the PC, i install this little program to change the MIDI output from Control Panel. After that i edit the timidity.cfg which is found at the musix folder, which is located in the timidity folder and add some soundfonts to use. I recommend using either SGM-V.2.01, WeedsGM3 or GeneralUser GS Fluidsynth soundfonts....or just add 'em all. This is what i have in my timidity.cfg:
dir "C:\timidity\Musix"

soundfont "SGM-V2.01.sf2"
soundfont "WeedsGM3.sf2"
soundfont "GeneralUser GS FluidSynth v1.44.sf2"

#extension opt -U



And now i enjoy playing Dink with orchestrated or metal music. Depending on the MIDI.
