Homebrew developer Zack is back with a new and improved version of the LuaPlayer Euphoria. This update definitely has something more in store for us gamers. It has an ogg and dialogue support, plus it is considerably faster than the previous versions.

And because any coder who uses Lua should be stepping up their game to the fifth, Zack decided to release this upgraded version of the LuaPlayer Euphoria.

More details for the LuaPlayer Euphoria:

System:

- System.dialogue(STRING, OPTIONS) - Brings up the Sony Message Dialogue window with your text

- System.about() — Shows the LuaPlayer Euphoria version, credits and info (using Sony message dialogue system)

Ogg support / playback:

- Ogg.init() — Initialize the Ogg System.

- Ogg.load(filename) — Load a Ogg.

- Ogg.play() — Play a Ogg.

- Ogg.stop() — Stop a Ogg.

- Ogg.pause() — Pause a Ogg.

- Ogg.kill() — Stop and Free a Ogg.

- Ogg.free() — Free a Ogg.

- Ogg.endOfStream() — Get the end of a Ogg (ie . if Ogg.endOfStream == 1 then).

- Ogg.getTime(string) — Retrive the current play time position of the Ogg.

MP3:

- “end” is a reserved keyword in Lua, so Mp3.end() would never have worked… It is now: Mp3.kill()

The LuaPlayer Euphoria version 5 also uses InfraFront by BenHur and a speedup of about 8>10 frames per second.
