I have very good news - Zing has finally been released for Windows!
I sincerely apologize for the extreme wait in releasing the Windows version, and as a bonus, I have added an extremely special feature courtesy of nXIII - a fully integrated, working update system.
You can now upgrade Zing! without having to uninstall and reinstall all over again. When a new version of Zing! is released, you'll have instant access to the new version by simply downloading a patch file and updating Zing! with it. Simple as that! With the patcher, you can also add new functionality - advanced blocks, new features, customizations, and even beta features!
For those who have a Mac and are interested in the patcher, the next Mac version of Zing! will be version 1.0.3 due to some unfortunate problems with the code.
I'm so sorry about the incredibly long delay in the Windows release of Zing. I have been working with my dad to try to figure these technical difficulties out, and have delved into registry entries and metadata in order to do so. Unfortunately, we have still not figured out the root cause of this problem, and are desperately trying to solve it.
However, I have some good news! I am happy to say that I have found a solution to the problem - and am releasing it very soon! By following a few simple steps, you can install Zing on your Windows machine in no time!
Watch the download page or this blog for more information - even better, sign up for the brand new newsletter on the download page!
ATTENTION: THE WINDOWS RELEASE OF ZING IS UNFORTUNATELY DOWN DUE TO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. I AM ACTIVELY WORKING ON A SOLUTION, AND HOPE TO RELEASE IT SOON.
I am happy to say that after several days of work, the first Windows version of Zing! has been released! Check it out on the download page.
I am happy to say that Zing! 1.0.1 has been released! Check it out on the Download page!
Sorry this is a little late.
As you might know from my last post, the 1.0 release of Zing! was discontinued after a few short hours due to credit concerns. In the meantime, I have been working on Zing! 1.0.1, and will release it later today! Watch the download page to grab it when it's out.
AS OF 10/16/2010, THE CREDIT AND CODE REMOVAL PROGRAM HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED
Well, the Zing release did not go as smoothly as I had hoped. It seems I have forgotten to take some features out that I had never meant to release to the public.
As a result, I have decided to remove the Zing! 1.0 download, and replace it with version 1.0.1, a patched version.
I am also working on a Credits section, with credits for all the many helpful people who have code used in this mod. Read on for more...
Zing has finally been released! Check it out on the download page!
Zing is coming along nicely - I have about 3 more files to replace, then I'll be done!
I'm still working on the website, so check back often for new content. Zing will be released on Sunday, but I'm not sure what time - I have choir in the morning, so it might be in the afternoon. I'll post here and in the forums when it's released, so keep watching! :)
Well -- that was easy! Feel free to explore, and have fun!
