WasFlash Devlog # 10                                           Alpha 3.1- Pre Release 2

What I worked on today:

   - Implimented the following:

        ~ DefineBits2 + Corresponding Bug testing Files

        ~ DefineBits 3+4 + Corresponding Bug testing Files

        ~ DefineBitsLossless + Corresponding Bug testing Files, and custom image |          assemblers for speed.

~ Changed Zlib to Wuffs for much faster decomp times.

Notes:

Hello Friends, it’s been a while, and I really try to avoid 10 hour devlogs, but I really wanted a good real world testable result for bitmaps before I made one. The main reason being that next on the list is sprites, which will complete the animation stage of this project. Leading us to Alpha 4.0. Now I wanted to take the time to name each coming stage, as each one will be long, yet monumental. I am nearly done with bitmaps, and soon enough, I will be working on the grueling task of implementing the sprites. I think so far the most difficult task was shapes, because it required a very deep understanding of the SWF shape system, but sprites might be a close second. I really appreciate you guys’ support, even though there aren’t too many of you. I love this project, and I am so happy I get to express it here.

Agenda:

   - Impliment DefineBitsLossless2

Whats Next:

   - Create actual autobuild script for both WASM and Native Linux

   - Adding Sprite Support

   - Adding Bitmap Support - In Progress

   - Adding Jpeg + Font Support

   - Add a GUI to Native Linux Build

   - Finally Release for Native Linux Builds

   - Port for Windows and MacOS

   - Work on more tags in the future…

WasFlash Devlog # 9                                           Alpha 3.1- Pre Release 1

What I worked on today:

   - Implimented DefineBits - Parsing and rendering

        ~ Updated Dependency Script to include libJPEGTurbo

        ~ Created 2 test SWF files using jpexs

        ~ Fixed major shape disappearing issue

Notes:

Hello Friends! I spent quite a bit of time on this, both parsing and processing bitmaps. So far we only have one working bitmap parser of 6, and that is the most bare bones one. There are some weird errors that can occur with the JPEG headers, but it is impossible to find SWF files with DefineBits, so I made my own, one without the error, and one with it. It currently works for both, which is great, and I am excited to see where I can take this project. I am so close to being ready for Sprite support. I just need to keep pushing through these tags. Thank you to anyone who’s been keeping up with this, for others, feel free to follow if you think this is cool. See you guys next time!

Agenda:

   - Implement the other 5 DefineBits Types

   - Get EMScripten libJPEGTurbo

Whats Next:

   - Create actual autobuild script for both WASM and Native Linux

WasFlash Devlog # 8                                                                        Alpha 3.0

What I accomplished today:

   - MAJOR UPDATE! – NEW RELEASE – MAJOR UPDATE!

   - Fixed Morph Shape issues - Fixed wrong MorphShape Order

   - Fixed the Matrix Signing Error - This has been causing the shape warping

   - Optimized Rendering Packets

   - Updated Web Implementation

Notes:

Hello friends, My most recent Devlog may have reflected some distress, but I finally figured it out! The weird warping of shapes was caused by a bug in a script I wrote about 5 months ago, that I thought was solid. There was a signing error, so all numbers ended up unproportionately large if they were negative, because the first bit was being counted towards the value. With a quick change of 2 lines, it completely changed the look of animations. As for the color bug with morph shapes, there is no bug at all, in fact the morph shapes typically are used as templates for sprites. So if you see any odd colored shapes, that’s why :D. Lastly, for some reason morph shapes are interpolated in reverse when using Skia, so I simply reversed the inputs, and the morph shapes are working as intended. The final thing was updating the main tag processor to send render instructions in batches, not one at a time, as to reduce overhead. This is a tough project, and I have poured my soul into it, if you think it’s cool, please feel free to follow it! Anyways, see you guys next time!

Whats Next:

   - Create actual autobuild script for both WASM and Native Linux - Some time a       little less in the future…

   - Adding Sprite Support - Will take a very long time

   - Adding Bitmap Support

   - Adding Jpeg + Font Support

   - Add a GUI to Native Linux Build

   - Finally Release for Native Linux Builds

   - Port for Windows and MacOS

WasFlash Devlog # 7                                           Alpha 3.0 - Pre Release 3

What I worked on today:

   - Implimented DefineMorphShape’s - Still not fully working

        ~ Implemented MorphFillStyle Translator

        ~ Implemented MorphLineStyle Translator - 1 and 2

        ~ Implemented MorphGradient Translator

        ~ Implemented DefineMorphShape to Shape Builder*

        ~ Fixed parsers to work with builders

Notes:

Hello friends, I did a lot of work in this long extended session! I decided that it would make sense to just convert the morph variants to the normal variants, and use my current framework to just build 2 shapes, and interpolate them. There were a lot of issues, because there are some odd SWF bugs that happen sometimes, and I thought they were my own errors, so I spent like 2 hours trying to get things working, and I just ended up putting in some fall back code, and got things working, but now there are some weird color bugs, so I need to work those out, but overall it seems to be working ok. It’s been a rough week, so I hope it gets a little easier(It’s not gonna be with sprites, but it is what it is). Anyways, thank you guys for following along, for anyone else coming across this, feel free to like this comment, and follow the project if you think it’s cool. See you guys next time!

Agenda:

   - Fix odd color issues with morph shapes

   - Clean up parsing output

After countless fixes I have managed to get a functioning FAT12 filesystem working, including listing and loading files. Saving (writing) is not functional yet. The key issues were: CHS mismatch, BPB was wrong, broken multisector loading, and other. Next I will try to make writing possible.

WasFlash Devlog # 6                                           Alpha 3.0 - Pre Release 2

What I worked on today:

   - Implemented Full DefineMorphShape Parsing - Currently not fully working

        ~ Implemented MorphFillStyle Parsing

        ~ Implemented MorphLineStyle Parsing - 1 and 2

        ~ Implemented MorphGradient Parsing

        ~ Implemented SHAPE Struct Parsing

        ~ Implemented DefineMorphShape Parsing

        ~ Implemented DefineMorphShape2 Parsing

Notes:

Hello friends, as you can see, this Devlog is pretty long. This took around twice as long as ordinary Shape Styles, seen in DefineShape tags. This is because each DefineMorphShape tag contains a pair of each type of data for interpolation, rather than one set. For the most part this was just pretty tedious low level Bitmath operations, and a lot of nested structures. It wasn’t too bad, because I had a good reference from the original DefineShape structures, and just general experience, but yes, it was very tedious, and likely the least fun part of this process. Hopefully my next Devlog has a better timeframe, and parsing is working! Thank you all for stopping by, as always, please feel free to leave a comment with any questions you might have, or just feedback in general, as well as following and liking this post!

WasFlash Devlog # 5                                           Alpha 3.0 - Pre Release 1

What I worked on today:

   - Started Development Of DefineMorphShape tags

        ~ Created new SHAPE base structure

        ~ Set up all required structures for DefineMorphShape

        ~ Added DefineMorphShape to tags.h

Notes:

Hello friends, you may have noticed a different version type, “Pre Release”. This is simply an indication that this is not an official change, and is not implemented into the project. Pre Release Devlogs should tend to reflect 1-2 big changes, with a large majority of the content nested inside, as shown above. This Devlog serves to both announce the beginning of Morph Shape Development, and represent what to expect from Pre Releases. As a quick note to the fact that Morph Shapes were not even on the To Do list, I recently discovered that Morph Shapes were just as important as Sprites, when properly rendering animations. Anyways, though this one was short, thank you for stopping by, and feel free to check out my project, follow it, and like this post if you think it’s cool! See you all next time!

WasFlash Devlog # 4                                                                        Alpha 2.2.1

What I accomplished today:

   - Added even more optimizations to the shape processing

   - Implemented DefineShape4 support

   - Pushed Updates to Web

   - Updated Skia Git Clone - To prevent the deadly stack trace issue

Notes:

Hello friends, this session was very exciting! I was able to get DefineShape4 Shapes to render properly, and although it was a pain it looks really good! I had to kinda rework the processor a little bit, because DefineShape4 adds a few flags, but I already added LineStyles2 support, so it implemented well. I also got rid of the redundant line/fill storage, which was a small optimization, but still mostly noticeable. To end off the session, I changed the Skia commit hash, so we won’t need to deal with outdated headers.

Whats Next:

   - Create actual autobuild script for both WASM and Native Linux - Some time a       little less in the future…

   - Adding Sprite Support - Will take a very long time

WasFlash Devlog # 3                                                                        Alpha 2.1.4

What I accomplished today:

   - Fixed scaling of canvas on website

   - Added anti-aliasing to smooth out animations on both web and native builds

   - Pushed web compiler flags to main build

   - Made Cinnamon Rolls

Notes:

Hello friends! I spent a lot of time trying to figure this one out, many hours were spent debugging this session. Originally the website was just plugging the file into the WASM binary, and re-scaling to output to make the output match the canvas size, but this would cause blurriness and distorted quality. The good thing about this is, because we actually have to build each shape, we can just tell Skia to draw the shapes bigger, so the scaling still produces a native shape, just with different dimensions. So I had to rework the way the scaling worked. I also added back anti-aliasing, because the optimizations worked so well, that we can run anti-aliased’ output at full speed! There wasn’t too much going on this time around. but it really made a big difference! Thank you all for being here, I really appreciate it! Please feel free to leave a comment, with any questions or feedback, and like this post if you think it’s cool, and follow the project, if you think it’s cool! Have a good day everyone! PS. The cinnamon rolls were yummy!

WasFlash Devlog # 2                                                                        Alpha 2.1.3

What I accomplished today:

   - Added major optimizations to WebAssembly compilation

   - Revamped WasFlash official color scheme - Using the Catppuccin color scheme

   - Fixed some bugs with buttons + Added functionality to a few buttons

   - Updated logo with new color scheme

Notes:

Hello friends! I made some big differences to the look of the website, with a new logo, completely different color palette, and the general feel of the website. My original idea for WasFlash was a kind of cyberpunk theme, I spent countless hours adding little glowing effects, and these moving gradients, but I couldn’t shake the awkward feeling of it all. A flash emulator is old software, but it is by no means is it retro. I decided it was time to finally change it up, and I am so happy I did, because the website feels much cleaner, and well implemented. While pink and blue are my favorite gradient palette, cyan and green are a close second, and worked perfectly for this. Overall the website is much nicer on the eyes, and generally better to use! Finally I updated the popup to mention Stardance instead of Flavortown. Thank you for joining me today!

WasFlash Devlog # 1

What I accomplished today:

• Debugging deadly stack trace error - Ended up being outdated headers from Skia

• Updating Skia headers to modern version

• Re-Added gradient shape fill support

• Added heavy optimizations for all locally built dependencies, for native Linux builds - Removes latency entirely

• Cleaned up loose files

Notes:

Hello friends, today was a little bit of a drag, given the fact that I just could not figure out what was causing this nonstop stack trace. I finally looked into Skia, and realized my headers were out of date with the actual program, so I had to update those, ultimately fixing the program entirely. I also took some time to add optimization, so much so, that there is now zero latency in both audible, and visual playback. Overall, this was a productive session, even though it took ages.

Whats Next:

• Porting current version to WebAssembly - With similar optimizations

• Adding DefineShape4 support + Port DefineShape4 to WebAssembly

• Update Wasflash Website with new Catppuccin color palette

• Create actual autobuild script for both WASM and Native Linux - Some time in the future…
