This release contains multiple new features. Special mention deserve some changes made on how <e-Adventure> is distributed. On the one hand, the multiplatform version has been improved in terms of general compatibility, and now works properly under Windows and Linux systems with Java JRE 1.6 installed. For Windows users we have also improved the Win32 version including now a bundled installer that does not require having Java installed on the computer. Mac users can use our deeply revised Mac version, which solves most of the compatibility problems reported by users. Given the improved compatibility with Linux environments of the generic multiplatform version, we will not release any more Linux-specific versions.

Besides, all the versions include two sample games for your convenience. Try them out!

The detailed changes are:

• New look and icons!
• The placement of elements in the scene has been completely redesigned and now is fully drag & drop. Besides it now allows users to adjust the size of the elements for each scene, along with the order in which each element must be painted thanks to a new layer system.
• Documentation has been updated and now is distributed along with the release.
• Movement system improved by the use of trajectories in combination with barriers.
• Set items can be defined now in <e-Adventure> to improve how the games will look.
• Interactivity has been improved by the inclusion of custom actions for NPCs and items.
• Now it is easier to implement a narrative flow in <e-Adventure> thanks to the inclusion of variables, macros and global states.
• Support for active areas has been enhanced.
• Export & Import system improved in both game editor and engine.
• New animation system: much more flexible, powerful and easy to use.
• The HTML books editor has been also improved.
• Multimedia-content compatibility has been improved.
• Compatibility with Mac and Linux systems has been enhanced.
• Multiple bugs fixed.

NOTE: The Win32 Installer presents some problems in the presence of some firewalls (including COMODO Personal Firewall). If you have problems running the installed application, please revert to the generic multiplatform version.
