Changes in v3.11.0 Release Candidate 1 (2024.12.04): | ||
Changes in v3.11.0 (2024.12.14): | ||
|
||
Additions | ||
|
||
* Added a 'Loop end tick' option in the song properties. | ||
* Setting it to a tick greater than the song length will add a silent note at that | ||
tick to move the loop point further. | ||
|
||
* The MIDI import instrument mappings have been tweaked to be more accurate | ||
to General MIDI (GM) instruments. | ||
|
||
Bugfixes and improvements: | ||
|
||
* Fixed layer buttons triggering inconsistently when dragging from bottom to top. | ||
* Fixed window animations not working after opening the 'Import sounds' window. | ||
* Fixed uninstall function of exported data packs not loading correctly. | ||
* Updated the NBS icon to a flat version. The previous icon can still be used with | ||
the 'Old icon' setting. | ||
* Changed all instances of 'Minecraft Note Block Studio' and 'Open Note Block | ||
Studio' to Note Block Studio, as part of an ongoing rebrand. | ||
* Replaced the icon for the 'Browse songs' button in the greeting window with | ||
the Note Block World website icon. | ||
* Improved wording across various places. | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Changes in v3.11.0 Beta 5 (2024.12.02): | ||
|
||
Additions: | ||
|
||
* The behavior for clicking layer buttons has been changed: | ||
* Multiple buttons can now be pressed consecutively by holding the left mouse | ||
button and dragging the mouse over them. | ||
* This should make it much easier to add, remove, select, lock and solo multiple | ||
layers! | ||
|
||
* Holding Ctrl is no longer necessary to select multiple layers. | ||
|
||
* Selected layers can now be deselected by pressing the 'Select all blocks in this | ||
layer' button a second time. | ||
|
||
* Removed the 'Loop to bar end' option. | ||
* This option was misleading in that it 'masked' the true loop point of the song, | ||
which is after the last tick, causing playback behavior to vary across different | ||
NBS installations. | ||
* To make sure your songs loop at the right point, add a note block with velocity | ||
0 at the last tick before the looping point. | ||
* This setting may be re-added in the future as a property stored in each song file. | ||
|
||
* Added an entry in the File menu for restoring unsaved files. | ||
|
||
* If present, song author and original author are now displayed in the main view | ||
for the Player Mode. | ||
|
||
Bugfixes and improvements: | ||
|
||
* Fixed songs not loading when opened via Explorer or by dragging and dropping. | ||
* Fixed backup file for packed songs being saved with the .zip extension, despite | ||
them being .nbs files. | ||
* Lag compensation is now cancelled if too much time has elapsed (for example, | ||
when moving the window around). Playback will resume from the previous | ||
point instead of skipping a large section. | ||
* Lag compensation is now applied to more timers, which should be more | ||
accurate: | ||
* Auto-save and backup saving timers; | ||
* Flash animation when editing piano keyboard shortcuts; | ||
* Time tracker for minutes spent in a song; | ||
* Scrollbar appear animation for fullscreen mode. | ||
* Ticks behind the playback marker will no longer play when dragging it around. | ||
* Silent notes have been added at the end of the demo songs to make sure they | ||
loop at the proper point. | ||
* Songs opened via the nbs:// URL protocol have the file extension removed from | ||
their display name. | ||
* Fixed pointer cursor not appearing when hovering keys at the edges of the | ||
piano in Player Mode. | ||
* Fixed the Player Mode playback progress bar going past its intended length at | ||
the end of a song. | ||
* Fixed blurry appearance of the Player Mode's central area with odd window | ||
dimensions. | ||
* Fixed dropdown menu for MIDI devices not displaying text properly in the | ||
English language. | ||
* Fixed incorrect entries for the bass drum sounds in the sounds.json file for the | ||
extra notes resource pack. | ||
* Fixed the Stereo macro being referred to as 'delay' in the tooltip for the | ||
'Reversed' checkbox. | ||
* Fixed a crash when playing an instrument that was assigned to a MIDI device. | ||
* Fixed swapped arrows for the instrument selection box when using | ||
high-resolution textures. | ||
* Fixed original author not displaying in the accent color in the song stats window | ||
when using the Fluent theme. | ||
* Added a debug launch option to get additional logs for bug reporting. | ||
* Updated the asset index version names for Minecraft: Java Edition 1.21.2 and | ||
1.21.4 (18 and 19). | ||
* Removed the 'experimental' label from the max. frame rate setting. | ||
|
||
Hidden changes: | ||
* Added a button on the greeting window to open Note Block World, our brand | ||
new website for browsing and sharing note block songs! | ||
|
||
* Tempo can no longer be set to under 0.25 ticks per second with tempo changers. | ||
* Added tempo change indicators to the timeline. | ||
* Added a sound import assistant to help you use sounds from Minecraft: Java | ||
Edition in your songs! | ||
* Accessible from Settings > Import sounds from Minecraft. | ||
* Make sure to launch the version you want from the Launcher before | ||
importing its sounds. Set your Minecraft installation path and game version, | ||
click the button to get sounds and watch them get imported automagically! | ||
* The sounds from the selected version will be copied to the 'minecraft' | ||
folder in your Sounds folder. | ||
|
||
* It is now possible to save a song with its custom sound files attached. | ||
* Reach over to File > Save song with instruments... to find this option. | ||
* This makes sharing songs with custom instruments easier than ever! | ||
* The saved file is a regular ZIP file containing the song, as well as the | ||
sound files used in it. | ||
* This feature replaces the 'Export sounds' option, previously accessible | ||
from the Instruments window. | ||
|
||
* The behavior for clicking layer buttons has been changed: | ||
* You can now click and drag over consecutive buttons to trigger them | ||
without needing to click each one. | ||
* This should make it much easier to add, remove, select, lock and solo | ||
multiple layers! | ||
* Selected layers can now be deselected by pressing the 'Select all blocks | ||
in this layer' button a second time. | ||
* Holding Ctrl is no longer necessary to select multiple layers. | ||
|
||
* The fade in and fade out macros now work relatively to each note's velocity, | ||
multiplying it by the decay factor. | ||
* Previously, only the first note block in each selected column would be | ||
taken into account for determining all velocity values in that column. | ||
* Notes at each end of the selection will no longer go down to velocity 0, | ||
or into negative values. | ||
|
||
Changes in v3.11.0 Beta 4 (2024.11.28): | ||
* Added Minecraft version setting to data pack export. | ||
* You can choose between 1.13-1.20 and 1.21+. | ||
* This was necessary due to a change in the internal structure of data | ||
packs, in order to not break compatibility with older versions. | ||
|
||
* Fixed note panning taking the value of velocity when loading a song. | ||
* The 'Check for development releases' is now enabled by default when installing | ||
a development release. | ||
* Added a new auto-recovery system which takes multiple open instances into | ||
account: | ||
* Songs with unsaved changes are saved to a backup directory every minute. | ||
* When NBS quits abnormally (due to a crash, power loss or system restart), | ||
you'll be prompted to recover the files the next time you open the program. | ||
* Clicking 'Yes' will copy the files to a restore directory so you can move | ||
them somewhere else. | ||
* Clicking 'No' will leave the unsaved files in the backup directory so you | ||
can recover them later. | ||
* You can also open the backup directory by going to File > 'Restore | ||
unsaved files'. | ||
* This mechanic is experimental, so make sure to leave your feedback so we | ||
can improve it further! | ||
|
||
* Note Block Studio now registers itself as a handler for the `nbs://` URL | ||
protocol on startup. | ||
* This can be used to download and open NBS files directly from an external | ||
application, such as a blog or website. | ||
* By default, the program will launch in the player mode when handling the | ||
protocol. | ||
* To prevent security risks, the file won't be opened if it can't be | ||
detected as a valid song, or if it's over a certain size. | ||
|
||
* Added a 'Loop end tick' option in the song properties. | ||
* Setting it to a tick greater than the song length will add a silent note | ||
at that tick to move the loop end point further. | ||
|
||
* Removed the 'Loop to bar end' option from Preferences. | ||
* This option was misleading in that it 'masked' the true loop point of the | ||
song, which is after the last tick * causing playback behavior to vary across | ||
different NBS installations. | ||
* To make sure your songs loop at the right point, change the 'Loop end | ||
tick' in the song properties, or manually add a note block with velocity 0 at | ||
the last tick before the intended looping point. | ||
* This setting may be re-added in the future as a property stored in each | ||
song file. | ||
|
||
* Blackout mode is now available in Player Mode, including the shortcut (F10)! | ||
|
||
Changes in v3.11.0 Beta 3 (2024.11.28): | ||
* If present, the song author and original author are now displayed in the | ||
Player Mode's main view. | ||
|
||
Additions: | ||
* Added new OpenNBS social links to the greeting window, the Help menu and the | ||
About window. | ||
|
||
* Added a new auto-recovery system which takes multiple open instances into | ||
account: | ||
* Songs with unsaved changes are saved to a backup directory every 10 minutes. | ||
* When NBS quits abnormally (due to a crash, power loss or system restart), | ||
you'll be prompted to recover the files the next time you open the program. | ||
* Clicking 'Yes' will copy the files to a restore directory so you can move them | ||
somewhere else. | ||
* Clicking 'No' will leave the unsaved files in the backup directory so you can | ||
recover them later. | ||
* Added donation links! If NBS is useful to you and you'd like to support its | ||
development, feel free to check out this option in the greeting window or the | ||
Help menu. | ||
|
||
* The fade in and fade out macros now work relatively to each note's velocity, | ||
multiplying it by the decay factor. | ||
* Previously, only the first note block in each selected column would be taken | ||
into account for determining all velocity values in that column. | ||
* Notes at each end of the selection will no longer go down to velocity 0, or | ||
into negative values. | ||
* Added a small banner to the greeting window which lets you buy us a coffee | ||
via our Open Collective. Thank you! | ||
|
||
* Blackout mode is now available in Player Mode, including the shortcut (F10)! | ||
|
||
* Added a button to the greeting window to open Note Block World, our brand | ||
new website for browsing and sharing note block songs! | ||
|
||
Bugfixes and improvements: | ||
|
||
* All operations involving selections are now much, much faster, including | ||
loading a song, moving, selecting, placing and deleting notes, changing note | ||
properties, applying macros, and undoing or redoing actions. | ||
* All macro operations can now be properly undone. | ||
* The 'Max loop count' option is now respected during playback. | ||
* The MIDI import instrument mappings have been tweaked to be more accurate to | ||
General MIDI (GM) instruments. | ||

option is enabled. | ||
* The Chorus macro now better handles selections with more than three layers. | ||
* Fixed an error that would cause note blocks/command blocks in the track | ||
export to be missing. | ||
* The extra notes resource pack can now be saved from the Compatibility window. | ||
* The popup shown when the data pack export is complete now shows the syntax to | ||
play the song from a command block. | ||
* Added 'Schematic' and 'Structure Block' labels to the different Minecraft | ||
version options in schematic export. | ||

* Macro windows are now closed immediately if no note blocks are selected, | ||
which should prevent certain softlock cases. | ||
* Fixed auto-save ticking down into negative values and saving the song every | ||
frame once the timer reaches zero. | ||
* Fixed opening songs with the nbs:// URL protocol not working in some cases. | ||
* Fixed a crash when compressing a selection with some particular note | ||
arrangements. | ||
* Loading and saving songs have been made much faster. | ||

* Lag compensation is now cancelled if too much time has elapsed (for example, | ||
when moving the window around). Playback will resume from the previous point | ||
instead of skipping a large section. | ||
