Subject: JSWED 2.1.1 uploaded

 

JSWED 2.1.1 has been uploaded. This corrects the following bugs:

* Didn't seem to draw the bounds of vertical guardians in the right
place.
* When you were asked whether to add a horizontal or a vertical
guardian to a Manic Miner room (or should that be 'sheet'?), it always
added a vertical guardian.
* It should now be possible to save JSW128 games in TAP or +3DOS
format.
* 48k games upgraded to 128k now support diagonal guardians.

The last bug is an interesting one. It seems that ever since the
original JSWED2, 48k games upgraded to 128k did not have the 'diagonal
guardian' patches applied (an example of a game in this condition is
Party Willy 128). Such games didn't upgrade cleanly to HL9 with JSWED
2.1.0. When it detects one of these games, JSWED 2.1.1 reapplies the
diagonal guardian patch, and then redoes the HL9 upgrade.

I haven't been able to replicate the other reported bugs (flashing
colours, or losing information between ED00h and F700h).
