Fixed an issue with "Move Selection" and "Cancel Selection" button not working.
A small release to fix a couple of bugs:
Heyo! It's major update time! This feature marks a culmination of very important features that give you total control over how your works on DanielX.net Paint Composer look and sound. First we added custom SoundFonts, then we added custom spritesheets, then custom VFX shaders, and now we've added the ability to render directly to .mp4 video! You no longer need to use separate screen capture software and the quality is much higher since the rendering happens offline, syncing up the audio and video precisely for each frame.
Custom VFX Shader Editing
This update adds support for custom spritesheets!
Drag and drop a PNG image into the editor and the "Import Spritesheet" modal will appear.
Choose a name for the spritesheet (this is what will appear in the spritesheet picker dropdown in Settings)
Specify the tile width and height. This is the size of each tile in the PNG image. They must be aligned on a grid.
Specify the scale. The default spritesheet has tiles that are 48x48. If you are uploading a 16x16 spritesheet you can choose 3 and they will be upscaled. For a 24x24 spritesheet 2 would be a good choice.
Choose "Includes Active State" if each tile has a corresponding state for active beneath it in the spritesheet.
The spritesheet can be any number of rows and columns. If the sprtesheet includes active states then each row will be two tiles tall with the default states on top and the active states below.
Here's an example of the default spritesheet. It includes active states. Feel free to use it as a template!
To choose a spritesheet select it from the dropdown in the "Settings" panel:
I hope you enjoy the update!

Now when publishing your songs to a public URL Paint Composer will also publish the SoundFont used in them as well. This way you can share a link with anyone and they will be able to hear your song exactly the same way you hear it! The MIDI file includes metadata that links to a permanent URL of the SoundFont so that when someone visits the link Paint Composer automatically downloads and caches that SoundFont to their machine.
To add a custom SoundFont simply drag and drop a .sf2 file from your desktop into Paint Composer.
To change which SoundFont your song uses select one from the dropdown in the "Settings" panel.
When you "Publish to a shareable URL" the SoundFont will automatically be uploaded (if it hasn't already been) and anyone who follows the link to your song will hear it the same way you do.
Enjoy!
P.S. always feel free to share any questions, feedback, or comments. I listen to all the feedback I can to make sure that Paint Composer will make your wildest dreams come true.
New feature: Added "Solo" buttons and "Unmute All" to the channel mixer.
Returned Feature: Key signatures got lost in the MIDI rewrite but now they are back! There are still some legibility issues and general room for improvement but it should cover most common cases very well. As always let me know if you discover any bugs or weirdness, thanks!
