    oh no,  no mac beta version T__T
    Yeah. I can not test also. I only have Linux, Mac OS and a Virtual Windows XP. None of these systems is suitable. I hope a Mac OS version is planned.

    Ah, yeah. I will post a script later for the in scene videos, it can only be done with lua currently, also it's a little bit experimental. 

    Here a script for WASD + arrow keys (you still need 2 borders).
    local charmove_x = 0 
    
    local charmove_y = 0
    
    
    
    function vKeyboardHandler(eventType, character, keycode, modifiers) 
    
     if eventType==eEvtKeyUp then 
    
      print('key up: ' .. keycode) 
    
      keycode = keycode % 1073741824 
    
      if keycode == 80 or character == 'A' then -- left 
    
       charmove_x = 0 
    
      elseif keycode == 79 or character == 'D' then -- right 
    
       charmove_x = 0 
    
      elseif keycode == 81 or character == 'S' then -- down 
    
       charmove_y = 0 
    
      elseif keycode == 82 or character == 'W' then -- up 
    
       charmove_y = 0 
    
      end 
    
      createEvent('eEvtControllerAxisCharacterMove', {x=charmove_x, y=charmove_y},25) 
    
     
    
     elseif eventType==eEvtKeyDown then 
    
      print('key pressed: ' .. keycode) 
    
      keycode = keycode % 1073741824 
    
       if keycode == 80 or character == 'A' then -- left 
    
       charmove_x = -100 
    
      elseif keycode == 79 or character == 'D' then -- right 
    
       charmove_x = 100 
    
      elseif keycode == 81 or character == 'S' then -- down 
    
       charmove_y = 100 
    
      elseif keycode == 82 or character == 'W' then -- up 
    
       charmove_y = -100 
    
      end 
    
      createEvent('eEvtControllerAxisCharacterMove', {x=charmove_x, y=charmove_y},25)
    
      end
    
      return false
    
    end
    
    
    
    registerEventHandler('keyEvent', 'vKeyboardHandler')

    @Simon_ASA:
    - can I change the windows position or the tabs order to personalize the interface?  

    Currently not, is planned, but was not working well enough to keep it in.

    - Is it risky to work on my project with the Beta now?

    No, we're all working there.

    - can I see the name of the file that I'm currently working on?

    You know the title bar was a little crowded and I couldn't get space for the filename there... So currently you can't see it I'm afraid.

    Thanks SimonS!

    I just experimented small problems with the Actions part (Objects Actions).

    1/ I can copy/paste the actions listed, but I can't seem to be able to copy anymore a group of action (for example a Left Click group, or a Called By Other Action group).
    I know it was possible in VS4 to use ctrl+c, ctrl+v on them, but here I can't.
    When I right-click I can see 2 copy options, but then there's no paste option.

    2/ I have some issues with one of my lists of actions and I don't know why. See picture:

    @ Simon: downloading now. Will test it out later this afternoon.

    In regards to some of the stuff I've read on here...

    720 height should be about the minimum you should be aiming for though the most common laptop resolution is 1366x768 (15.4"). For people working on laptops, I highly recommend buying a cheap 23 to 24" monitor for native 1920x1080p display as it's much easier to work on & leaves your laptop screen available for running Snake Tail realtime log application which is something I find very useful or alternatively for browsing the web &/or talking to people on your preferred IM. Great for watching TV & movies on too.

    About the title name, what about adding a small status bar at the bottom? Maybe it could contain useful information such as current projects name & coordinate position of mouse & maybe language change option for editor & option to toggle fullscreen/window mode on or whatever... Alternatively you could use fancy tooltips or something maybe.

    @ Lebostein: you can purchase a windows 8.1 or 10 pro windows oem key from opiumpulses web store for less than €20. I paid about €9 for my windows 8.1 key & about €16 for windows 10 key. The prices fluctuate up & down, but pretty cheap regardless. I'm using windows 10 key on my custom built gaming/development pc & the windows 8.1 key on a mac mini running parallels VM - works fine, though the mac is a bit old so does run a little slow, but should be fine on newer macs.

    I have already thought about it...  I have purchased a Windows 7 license some years ago, but this shop (http://www.softwarebilliger.de/) was branded as "half-legal" some weeks later (https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Softwarebilliger-de-...), I am not sure what I have purchased. Until now all Windows Software I use requires Windows XP only. But I will try to install that (hopefully legal) Win 7...

    As far as I'm aware opium pulses (a uk digital distribution store) gets all or at least most of their keys through official developers/publishers but in most cases they only have limited stock & once it's gone it seems they either take ages to acquire new keys or don't bother renewing them - not sure which. Have bought a few games from them besides the 2 windows keys & all have worked fine so far.

    Hey Simon, is it possible to add a function to work with Steam achievements easily? ^^
    You can sort out steam achievements & stats (also gog galaxy) with Lua script. Functions have existed for a while. Think they are pretty simple to work with already. Basically get/set achievement/stat name. I'm not sure about setting them up on Steam, but I'm pretty sure that anyone on here that has released a game to Steam with achievements can probably provide a step by step - if not then I'll create one when I get around to releasing a game myself (will probably be a while though).

    Bugs I have seen are;

    1-) I tried keyboard ctrl script, but it doesnt work. I deleted the waypoints and tried with borders only, and still didnt work.

    2-) Character Tab / Outfits; 

    i-) When I select the 3d character, on the right settings, Lighting all 3 radiobuttons can be selected and they dont deactive again. So its not possible to select only one of them and cant deselect any.

    ii-) Lighting Position listbox doesnt work. I click it but doesnt show anything.

    iii-) Ambient Light Color, color box doesnt shown but when you click the blank area, it pops out.

    3-) I've opened the scenes I did it prev version. And the 3d character's scales are all changed. Character is now smaller. Is it a bug or I should resize the character for all scenes for the version 5?

    4-) 3d character has a strange shadow like transparent image arround it. Even I click shadows off at the outfit settings, it doesnt make any difference.

    Thank you smile
