Your updates totally broke this game:

and this game:

http://scratch.mit.edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/2176968

Not impressed.

Howdy!

We have another round of Wednesday updates for you all.

- Added new assets to the Scratch editor. Can you find them all? (Hint: New sprites, background, and sound)
- Optimized 3D graphics rendering in editor. That means visual and color effect blocks will produce better looking results! Woo!
- New “Pong” tutorial in the Scratch editor.
- Added a Press page to keep track of all the awesome news articles about Scratch. A link to that page lives in the website footer.

Scratch On!

what are all of the updates?

when green flag clicked
ask [what are all of the updates?] and wait

Yay! Also, does the fact that I am getting my studio activity now (4:13 PM EST, 5:13 without DST) have anything to do with anything?

Sorry about that - we have a fix coming out shortly.

In your future reports, more detail would be appreciated - “totally” broke isn't very descriptive.

Sorry, but the previous poster on this thread isolated the issue perfectly.

That's the issue.

This is a great day!

Number of things happened at school that was awesome,
the DLC for Mario Kart 8 (Legend of Zelda DLC Pack, A.K.A. Pack 1) came out,
and these updates!

That's the issue.

This has been fixed in v428a of the Scratch Player.

Thanks!

Awesome, but I really think that there should be a block for save files in your game, so you don't have to put in a code to continue. Maybe it should use browser cookies?

Yeah dude. I totally agree with you. I would forever

scratch then.

Could you add messaging to other players. That would be nice so you could have easier communication with other people.

The updates sound great! However, there is one problem. In my “What's Happening” page, all it says is “Here is where you will see what the Scratchers you are following are doing. Click here to check out some Scratchers to follow.” I am following 77 people, and it is acting like I am a new scratcher!
That happens to me, too. That just means that none of the people you are following have been doing anything recently.

…and Yay! Updates!

Ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Scratch can use 3D? This means… I CAN MAKE TACOS IN 3D WITH SCRATCH!

You've always be able to make 3d rendered stuff in Scratch.

What would be cool is if you could create a 3D version of Scratch, where the stage is already set in 3D to make it easier. You could add special motion blocks that allow you to rotate and move the camera.

Hello there!

COMMENT GLITCH!!!

I have noticed a major bug that has occured with 3 witnesses (as of right now) including Aceofbass, me, and infinety12321.

What happens is each time I comment, a glitch occurs that the date shows a random symbol, “일분 전”.

I actually translated that word to Korean, meaning ‘one minute ago’.

Please fix the glitch!

I just recently got back into scratch, what kind of 3D rendering do y'all mean?

Ah, it's not what you think. It's just some of the graphic effects that Scratch has always had. We're doing them using a graphics library called “Stage3D” but it's still just the same effects you've seen before - sorry to get your hopes up.
