Bugs

  • Conversion script to update older versions.
  • Several User Interface bugs.
  • Template heightmap fixed.
  • Shader bug in Terrain (this caused a black screen).
  • US feet roundoff fixed.

  • Web panel scrolling fixed.
  • Use Esri for basemap color instead of Cyclomedia.
  • Fixed appearing hover panel.
  • Fixed brush set disable/enable.
  • Fixed global panel.

  • Fixed height tool.

Performance

  • Higher framerate on low-end systems, resulting is a more responsive interface.
  • Improved grid calculation speed by 20%.
  • Again improved the TQL performance.
  • The editor panels remain visible during a test run (so you can check values and helps with debugging Excelsheets).

  • Check the Cache at startup of your project is faster.
  • Video/hardware test is faster and more robust.
  • Intel cards support is better.
