Developer Preview Update

Hey everyone,

We've just released an update for the developer preview which includes the following changes:

General
- Translation files should now show credit on the startup credits in game.
- Chat windows now open with a notice informing people that they are in a public channel.
- The alignment panel now has clearer lock/unlock icons.

Cutpoints
- There is now a 'cut here' tool available in the default interface, available by right clicking. For the moment, this tool is only available on Alignment Puzzles.

Bug Fixes
- Wiggle should no longer lock the center of a segment in space.
- Rotamer cycling using the arrow keys in the selection interface should work again.

New Alignment Tool videos & folding meeting notes

Auntdeen has posted a detailed report from the first Foldit Dev Meeting where we invited 2 players to Skype in: http://fold.it/portal/node/992653

One of the topics brought up at that meeting was the need for players who understand how to use the new Alignment Tool to create a tutorial video for everyone else.

Until then, jflat and ceiben have added 2 new Alignment Tool videos to the Foldit youtube page:

Lastly, check out the blog to hear about Foldit's participation in the CASP10 WeFold Project.
