We are working on v1.0 release which is mostly the same as 0.20, but  needs to finish game data. When game will be finished, we will annonce v1.0 release.

thats good news ;9, please give it full mouse support - I was suprised that one have to fight with keyboard

There is full mouse support, just configure it in Configuration->Input.

Disable "Do not use mouse"

Enable "Mouse aim"

Enable "Move hero using mouse"

Will there be new trings to translate? I don't check in here every day, so it would be nice to get a automatic heads-up somehow, so I can get my translation back to 100% before the release.

How would you feel about using a translation platform like Transifex?

When the time comes, we'll post an aanoucement to the flarerpg.org website prior to the translation period. You can subscribe to the blog's RSS feed for automatic updates.

Since I don't use RSS for anything else, it's the same sor me if I have to remember to check the RSS or to check the blog ;)

I still think it would be a good idea to get the translations up on a translation platform like Transifex or a Pootle server. The important thing about choosing a translation platform is to make sure that it allows fuzzy matches, so translations won't get lost when a small change is made to the source string.

Some translators are uncomfortable with using offline tools (don't ask me why), and it will also be easier for translators to see the stats and if anything needs doing. More importantly, translators won't have to learn how to use git - not all translators are techy persons.

Just checking and saying hi.

My ultimate aim is an Eschalon-like RPG (I really enjoyed everything about those). Whether or not it will ever get done is another thing entirely but, in the meantime, FLARE looks and acts in a very similar manner and I THINK that it gets me halfway home without too much effort.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Great! First post and it's in the wrong place. Sorry .....
