Build 2299 adds text localization for the new GIF Creator and Sync features.

Today’s changes:

• Customize your keybinds (for instance for AZERTY keyboards).  When starting the game via AESU, check ‘File > Show Resolution Options on Launch’ then launch the game.  On the input tab, you will be able to adjust the keys.
• Level graphic is now displayed on level up
• Mouse panning enabled while in sell mode
• Quick jump from buy mode to sell mode just by pressing sell key
• Camera scroll speed should no longer be dependent on FPS
• Text size changes to registration page for some languages

AESU on Windows has been updated to version 5 to include a fix that prevents a popup window from showing when “Next” is clicked on the Popular Blueprint Ideas tab.

This AESU build is optional — Windows users can download from the download page or via Steam.  AESU4 for Mac and Linux already include these fixes.

Now you can easily record a GIF with March of Industry!  Simply head to the options menu and use the new GIF Recorder tool.  You can even set an optional caption.

Which makes a nice GIF:

I’m planning to do a livestream Sunday at 1PM Pacific (convert to your timezone)

I will:

• Show how to use Mod Sync to choose some mods and download them into March of Industry
• Create a blueprint live and then download it in-game
• Maybe give out some Steam keys 😉

It will be streamed on our twitch page.

Now you can download resource and weapon blueprints into the game.  This allows you to make & share your own resources and weapons!

Simply click Sync on blueprints that you want to download.  When you next start the game, they will be downloaded automatically.

You can manually tune a blueprint’s parameters (for instance, its ingredients), by modifying the appropriate file inside March of Industry\game\MarchOfIndustry_Data\StreamingAssets\ResourceMods\MOD_ID.resmod

If a blueprint needs to be updated, you can force it to be re-downloaded by deleting the appropriate .resmod’s.

You’ll note that when editing blueprints, you can now select whether they are resources or weapons.

There’s also now a forgot password page, a link to blueprints from the options menu, and the build number is moved to be inside the options menu.

• Fixed bug where some text localization didn’t take effect until after a game restart was performed
• Fixed occasional issue where a save game could not be uploaded to cloud
• Volume level now saves/loads
• Steam trading cards are now launched

You can now play MOI on OSX, either via standalone download or via Steam.

The build was tested on OSX Yosemite, but I believe any OSX 10.7 or later should be OK.

You may now get MOI as a Linux build in the following flavors:

• Standalone 32bit (via download page)
• Standalone 64bit (via download page)
• Steam 32bit (via Steam)
• Steam 64bit (via Steam)

These builds have been tested on Ubuntu 15.04 and 14.04

Steam beta keys are now available to backers!  The Steam build also includes Steam achievements, and (pending approval from Valve) will also include trading cards.
