Woohooo what a amazing big featurelist! :shock:
That's really great work, Fred and team. Thank you very very much for this big christmas present.

Merry Cristmas to all of you and still a happy apocalypse day. ;)

PS: Is the work at the feature wishlist now completed or is there any chance that some of the remaining wishes are realized in the near future?

Thanks is hardly enough.

What an incredible amount of work must have gone into this - and so soon after the major release!!

I'll have to find the Donate button in the new year.

Best wishes for the festive season.

Thanks Fred! Is there any plans to finish the terrain system? It's nice that you added support to render large terrain in the previous update, but we're missing the functionality to actually load large terrain via paging. Right now it just loads everything, fills up the memory and crashes.

JCALG1 dropped??

It's unfortuante that this was dropped ...

For upgrading, there is no way to "recompress" old compressed files -- so to upgrade an application using it, it would require you to write a program in pre-5.1 to decompress all data files and then in 5.1 compress them. Adds a layer of complication...

It would be nice to have at least decompress available.

Why was it dropped?

I think it should be doable to add it for uncompress only for this version to ease migration (but packfiles won't be supported).
