------- version 1.24.2 - 17.01.2001 One more bugfix release. * Fixed a bug crashing editor on load in versions 1.24 and 1.24.1 with message "Access violation at address 004A72BD" * Fixed a bug which fail mapping import from manager (Access Violation error box) under certain conditions (probably every time). * Fixed an OLE error in Validator that have absoluttely no effect on functionality. * Drums mapped as melodic were shown as drums, and melodic presets mapped as drums were shown as melodic in Editor. Now fixed. * Error messages in Manager ("Already exists") are made more user-friendly. ------- version 1.24.1 - 14.01.2001 A bugfix release. No major changes. * Fixed "DLL missing" bug under NT 4.0. * SoundFont Device Interface in megafont v1.24 was working only if v1.24 pre-release were used before on this PC. Now fixed. * Auto-refresh strategy for tree view in editor is made more "smart". This should fix too-often refreshing problems that were in 1.24.1, especially when preview was turned on. * A "disable auto-refresh" option for tree view in Mappings Editor is implemented. Just in case a "more smart strategy" mentioned will fail... * Fixed a bug causing megafont to crash sometimes ("Error" message box) when starting Mappings Manager. * If the currently active mapping were edited and then megafont.exe exited then in registry were saved an old version of mapping. Now fixed. * If someone have mentioned that .EXE's in 1.24 were packed? This was the first and the last time... They are no packed now. * Fixed wrong link to a US mirror in About box. * Fixed a bug with "Not enough memory" message when the preset mapped is not found in .SF2 file. * Megafont icon in tray now shows busy state more precisely. * Fixed a bug in the Winamp plugin which in very rare cases could cause incorrect total time display. * Changed look of megafont-exported patch list for Evolution. * Drum kits are made more selectable thru SoundFont Device Interface from Cubase. * Bank 125 and 126 were disabled in SoundFont Device Interface. Now I've turn them on because now I don't see the reason why I disabled them. I seems that they were crashing Cubase but it seems that all OK now... * Help is made more readable (now the font size can be changed in Explorer). * Added one more quick start guide to Help. For those who can't handle the old one. * In "Using megafont with Cubase" Help chapter notes regarding Cubase 5.x features are added. * Added one more technical note in help. * Some minor changes in help files. * Quartz sequencer support added: patch list (.set) creating and the appropriate help page. * "Stay on top" option for Monitor window implemented. * Added "Integration" page in preferences, allowing to hide unused sequencer buttons on toolbars. ------- version 1.24 - 12.12.2000 The first non-beta release of megafont ever ;) Christmas release ;) * Help files (!!!!) * Installer. * Preview bug fixed (only first preview was correct in 1.24 pre-release). * Waveforms preview crash fixed. * Toolbars dirty code fully rewritten. Now they are much better. New icons also. * Using both A: and B: synths crash fixed. * Temporary files erasing in Winamp fixed. * Bug with incorrect sorting after detach in editor is fixed. * Bug with presets doubling ater current file change in editor is fixed. * "Include Bank Name in Preset Names" option for SoundFont Device Interface implemented. * Some bugs with real-time mapping change are fixed. * Changed behaviour of the "Import mapping from file" - name suggested now is from the file name, not from the currently edited mapping. * Extended info of MIDI file in Winamp plugin now read at least 5 times faster. * Winamp plugin bug causing MCI257 error when adding last played file to a playlist is fixed. * Correct presets reloading after "Clear all" command. It was buggy. * Bank name change when only bank header is selected allowed. * Bug with not selecting appropriate attached preset when double-clkicking on the preset in "Presets in file" window fixed. * Message if there were no errors after "Check Integrity" command implemented. * Bug with "smoothed" images in tray, listboxes and toolbars on some videocards (such as ATI Rage 128 GL on Win'98) under win'98 is fixed. * Added commands in Monitor allowing to create mapping textfile based on cached presets. * Bug with not turning on megafont from Monitor if "Turn on on start" is off fixed. * "Disable SoundFont Device interface" option implemented. * Fixed bugs with Logic patch list export. It was my great mistake... * Bug with unloading randomized presets despite they are used is fixed. * Some MIDI file parsing bugs are fixed. * Tree browser in editor changed to local non-removable drives only. Possibly users will not like it... * Tree browser now displaying "+" at a folder only if this folder can be expanded (contains subfolders or sounds). * Bugs with disabling commands on floating toolbars is fixed. * It seems that CheeseCow left the project. ------- version 1.24 beta pre-release - 29.06.2000 Pretty messy version ;) But many major changes and new features. * New logo and tray icons. By CheeseCow who is entered project as designer. * Toolbars. * Fixed error caused crashes under NT 4.0. * Multiple simultaneous mappings support ("Combos" concept). * .WAV files support. * More native SBLive! support (including "Max. cache size override" option).

Patch was made because sources of v1.22b were lost ;) * Crashes under NT 4.0 fixed. * Bank Select 32 message filtering enabled (there was a bug appearing when both BS0 and BS32 are sent, for example in older versions of Evolution sequencer). ------- version 1.22 beta - 07.05.2000 Cornerstone version :) * Interface slightly changed. * Many bugs fixed, there is no more serious memory leaks. * Ability to change mapping in realtime (for example, one GM bank to another). * MIDI reset now works. * MIDI channels displayed in cached window. * "Save as SoundFont" function. * Emagic Logic support. * Preview function in Editor changed. ------- version 1.21.7 beta - 24.04.2000 More bugfixes.
