DEPRECATION NOTICE:

Please note that the next public build (v1.14 series) will deprecate the OpenGL 1.2 (legacy) renderer, meaning that GL4.1 will now be required. The new renderer is considerably faster in all cases, and allows for various things (particles, shadows, complex keyframe animations) not supported by the legacy renderer.

OpenGL 4.1 is supported by all graphics cards, and most integrated graphics solutions from ~2012 onwards.

Significant Changes:

• Change: Update handling of incorrectly rooted paths.
• Change: More improvements to object transformations. (Aditiya Afrizal)
• Change: Improve compatibility with Hmmsim specific CSV route variant.
• Change: When a Cylinder has an invalid number of faces, it is not shown when hacks are active. (Matches BVE2 / BVE4 behaviour)
• Change: Update routefile compatability database.
• Fix: Two further $Include related issues introduced in 1.13.0.3
• New: Add Options.StartingDirection command.
• BVE5: Don’t attempt interpolation between two identical values.
