Edge Display Scaler Minor Update (v1.2.2)

May 02, 2015 /
Edge Display Scaler has received another minor update, bringing the latest version up to 1.2.2. This version is all about updating a new feature added in 1.2.0, which embarrassingly was actually incomplete when it first arrived. That feature is edgeds_view_fit, a sort of 'training wheels' script to give new Edge DS users a simple aspect ratio scaling solution without having to entirely rework old projects for 1:1 scaling. The new version of the script still functions the same way, however it will now scale ...

New Square Enix Tech Demo Shows Off Power of DirectX 12

May 01, 2015 /
At Microsoft's BUILD 2015 conference this week, Square Enix vicariously made a brief appearance to show off a bit of what their Luminous Engine can do when taking advantage of the power of Microsoft's newest version of their popular graphics API, DirectX 12. For a bit of history, in the past we saw Luminous Engine running on DirectX 11-level technology in 2012's 'Agni's Philosophy' tech demo, and more recently we've seen a rough build of the engine running on home consoles in the form of Final Fantasy XV, ...

Welcome to ThinkBoxly! In case you hadn't noticed, things look a bit different around here today! If you've followed ThinkBoxly since the beginning, you'll have heard me say this a number of times—six, to be exact. Quite a lot for a website just celebrating its third birthday!

Asus Transformer Book T300 Chi – A Worthy Compromise (Review)

April 10, 2015 /
It’s been some time since we last saw a major step forward for laptops in the 12-13″ range. Initially the form factor was the sole territory of low-powered netbooks, but then in 2009 Intel and NVIDIA teamed up for a one-two punch with the Atom and ION chips, offering then-unparallelled performance for such small packages, and soon after Intel joined the graphics game with their own Intel HD chipsets. In the years since we’ve seen upgrades only trickle in, with each successive model being an ...

Edge Display Scaler Gets Another Minor Update (v1.2.1)

April 09, 2015 /
Sometimes it feels like there's always more that can be done with display scaling. Just when Edge Display Scaler got its first major update to 1.2.0, 1.2.1 is already a thing and out in the wild! The new update adds just one new feature: edgeds_set_screenres, an alternative script to the default edgeds_set_scale that gives the developer a bit more control over the display while still utilizing the 1:1 scaling Edge DS is designed for. To be more specific, edgeds_set_scale runs with each CPU cycle to check ...

FREE - Make_Color_Hex Released as Standalone Script!

April 02, 2015 /
It's no April Fools joke! There's a new one for the Marketplace: Make Color Hex! While this script itself is nothing new (it's been around since the first release of Edge VN) it represents the start of a new addition to the Edge Engine family: Edge Utils. Edge Utils will not be a product of its own, but rather a broad term for any handy Edge Engine scripts that get independent releases such as this. So what makes Edge Utils special? Well, put simply: it's free. Yup, anything released under the 'Edge Utils' ...
