Hi again folks.
This dev-log won’t be of note to most people as it concerns changes to some internal data structures. However, there are folks out there hacking around with the internals of TaleSpire, and this will be relevant to them.
As some non-modders will be reading along, here is a little intro to the state o...
Good morning folks!We have a couple of small fixes to the board folders feature today. Boards inside folders are sorted correctly nowWe've fixed a case where renaming a board after moving it into a folder would take it back out of the folderMore little tweaks are on the way as we prepare for creature mods. Enjoy!BUILD-ID...

FOOLISH HEROS! You have stumbled into a diabolical dungeon, an 'orrible oubliette, a maddening maze!This is the MegaDungeon tile set, and with it, you can build boards the likes of which TaleSpire has never seen before.Seriously! This is the first pack where we are experimenting with diagonal and circular walls. We'd l...
Heya folks,
Today was a tedious one.
I finished up last week by moving a whole bunch of code out of our Unity project and into a separate C# project that referenced the Unity DLLs. We are doing this as we want to ship TaleWeaver as compiled code[0].
I finished that task, and the TaleSpire project compiled, but whe...
Heya folks!After a few weeks of public activity, it feels weird to be quiet again, but things are progressing well.My big task is restructuring our projects so we can ship the creature modding tools as DLLs.This task involves some decoupling from Unity, so I’ve been removing the dependency on Unity.Entities. We didn’t us...
After a week in Beta, we are happy to release board folders to you all! With this new feature, you can now group your boards using folders, making it easier to manage your campaigns.Here is a quick video showing how it works.That is all for this release, but behind-the-scenes work is progressing on allowing you all to ad...
’Allo folks.
Today went well. I’ve got a texture format I think we can work with, and I’ve made a de/serializer for it. Here is a quick pic.There isn’t really a way to tell it’s from our format, but I guess that’s the point :P
I need to put this all together into a file format, but that is easy with the work from the...
Hi again folks,Today, I continued working on our custom mesh format. The image below shows some of the progress.This is the first mesh I’ve taken from Unity to our format and back again!With that working, my next task for creature modding is to work on how we will store textures on disk. I should be able to work on that ...
Heya folks! I’ve not written in the last couple of weeks as we’ve been going hell for leather, trying to ship two patches a week.
That’s been very successful, and it’s a lot of fun to do from time to time, but it is pretty unsustainable when you hit bigger features. So this week, we are only aiming to ship the board f...

In today's release, we bring one new feature and some fixes. Let's get into it!It has been a blast seeing how the community has taken to the slab-browser.

We have had Linux support via Proton for a long time, and it's been almost ideal. The one problem has been that talespire:// URLs did not work unless you did a bunch of hackery to set them up yourselves[0].This release fixes that.While testing on all distros and window-manager combinations is not practical, we have done ...
Well yesterday was nice! Borodust migrated the database without any major hitches and Golbin shipped another asset pack. I’ve been helping out but my main focus has been on board folders and the slab-browser.My first pass at my server-side code was a little more broken than I thought, but all of the fixes were easy enoug...

Heya folks,It felt good to get the slab-browser beta out, and while I do have things to fix before it is ready for prime time, I couldn't help but take a swing at a different feature. One we have all wanted for a while. Board folders.Today was mostly spent writing server code for this feature. I tested some of it but wan...
