– The sprite file selector can now open multiple files at once. – The file selector now works correctly when typing in a file name. Filling transparent areas now works as expected. – When filling you can now indicate whether only the color value should match or also the transparency. – When drawing a filled rectangle (or disk, …) without a boundary, the left color is now used. – The color picker now also changes the transparency value. – Changed the icon for the eraser in the image editor to something more meaningful. – Cut/Copy of a fully transparent image now keeps it transparent rather than making it black. Also a list is given of the suggestion that I did not follow (with a motivation). The following changes have been made since the previous public test verison 0.7.

I kept to the decision that the editors should be easy to use and that for more advanced image control people should use a separate program.” The suggestions together involved making something like Paint Shop Pro which would require an incredible amount of work and would make the editor way to complicated for novice users. Mark added that “there were many more suggestions that I did not follow.

The updated version of the editor implements some of the suggestions and fixes bugs that were submitted following the release of an earlier version about a month back. UE4 is free to use with the full list of features and you only have to pay royalty after getting your first $1 million from the project (and that's just the default case, you can always discuss custom license with an upfront fee, if you want to).Mark Overmars has released version 0.9 of the image and sprite editor that will be included in Game Maker 8. At the same time, each major version update is painless so you can upgrade your project during development to get new features. Later while working with Unreal, I've realized it has very consistent roadmap with constant improvements and adding new features. Blueprints are very helpful for beginners, C++ has a lot of 'syntax-sugar' - macroses, a lot of convenient in-engine types for everything. And suddenly it clicked, everything works as I expecting, UI is clear and much more powerfull, no need to build custom tools to work on the game itself. After some time, I've decided to try UE4 despite there was a lot of rumors that it's 'heavy' or requires an AAA team. But never get it worked because of the clunky UI which is very hard to understand for a new user. When I started to learn game development, I've tried to use Unity multiple times because it's the most popular option.
