Version 0.7.33 Nov 22, 2020

adds 3 buttons to the top bar of the property dialog,
- minus sign (deletes an object),
keyboard (show hide the property dialog keyboard) allowing you to rename objects, enter numeric values, etc.
“finger/browse” which will pop up a browser similar to the file browser, but looks at objects in the zone. Button for this is there but it is not hooked up yet

Version 0.7.34 Nov 27, 2020

Implements "zoneBrowser" - this is a popup on the property editor which lets you select and edit the properties for any object - not just those you can see.

Version 0.7.36 Dec 2, 2020

The "change parent" button is experimental and may or may not work. You cannot reparent to anything other than a composite and it gives no indication of this - and the object may jump or reorient badly
There is as yet no confirm dialog for delete, but the delete button is moved to a safer location
Implement enhanced buttons for doing stuff on property dialog. Property dialog now shows both the path and the parent path and has obvious buttons for modifying the parent, deleting the object, and changing the object you are editing. These functions have been moved off the ribbon into the main dialog area and enhanced with labels to make it obvious what is going on. Only the KB button remains on the ribbon

Version 0.7.39 Dec 10, 2020

Resurrect the visual edit mode, and make this an explicit mode on the edit palette. When edit is selected, go to this mode, which allows the interactive adjustment of things like lights.
Implement rotate and translate on the light rep, patch this through to the relevant object properties
Fix a problem where property editor changes to the light properties didn't go immediately into the light, but required a zone reload
Add artwork for the visual edit mode
Load textures referenced by .daes from the tex sub-folder, if they exist there. If they do not exist, load them from the containing folder as before

Version 0.7.40 Dec 16, 2020

Teleport now has send location and send rotation properties. These set how the viewer will be positioned and their direction of view at the destination of the teleport action. If these are not set (checkbox is not checked) the user will teleport to the default location and orientation for the destination zone (the spawn point)

Version 0.7.41 Dec 16, 2020

Disable polygon (which caused crashes on new)
Remove "system objects" like representations from browsable objects in the zone browser. Changing the edit object and parent now make more sense

Version 0.7.42 Dec 17, 2020

Comprehensively clean up the new object menu by editing the various *Intrinsics.xml files, which control where objects appear in menus
Remove the representation stuff, which was confusing and had crept into the menus
Re-enable newing of skybox, which lazzaro had complatined "he can't find anywhere"
Generally rejig the new menu so it makes more sense and is more like it should be

Version 0.7.43 Dec 18, 2020

nullptr checks in shader - should prevent some crashes

Version 0.7.44 Dec 18, 2020

Fix problems with NPE in saving caused by bad node instantion map null values.

Version 0.7.45 Dec 18, 2020

fixed the save problem.

Version 0.7.46 Dec 23, 2020

Fix problems with property editor - could not select/edit the resource locator for the skybox
Begin work on relative path translation
implement path conversion and deconversion stuff for relative paths. This will be used to convert the existing absolute paths into relative paths, which will make moving content around easier

Version 0.7.47 Dec 27, 2020

fix previously seen issues with wiring and adding things to the wiring tool palette

Version 0.7.50 Dec 28, 2020

Have a decent go at sorting out the mode weirdness in wiring tool. Now works in a more intuitive way.

Version 0.7.52 Dec 30, 2020

More wiring improvements

Version 0.7.53 Jan 7, 2021 make visual view tool (4-arrows icon menu item) respect draggable flag

Version 0.8.04 Apr 25, 2021

Entity - same as mesh, but does animation and has properties for that
Waypoint - make these and then tell any object to move to them using the appropriate properties
WarpMarker - click on this and be transported there and reparented
fixed the cause of various crashes in openGL driver
Did a bunch of work on picking necessary to fix wiring
Fixed wiring for the most part
Asset sync should finally be reliable

Version 0.8.16 May 17, 2021

The warp marker now works only in play mode.
The orientation of the ground plane is changed so that it is parallel to the floor.
Peter's changes should improve asset sync.

Version 0.8.20 May 20, 2021

improvements to asset sync for administrative upload
Fixes to composites for animation
fixed some wiring palette issues

Version 0.8.23 May 26, 2021

a few changes from peter related to asset sync

Version 0.8.31 Jun 17, 2021

Fixed problems with animation of multiple characters
Fixed several crashes changing zones
Fixed intermittent problem launching zones
Added monitoring pages
Reenabled web API and console
Multiuser zone switching now works
Removed stray cube at 0,0
Logging optimized
Removed vfns from display list gaining some performance improvements
Various launcher improvements

Version 0.9.67 Jan 26, 2022

major update - bug fixes
updated version with peter's change for Kinect plus position,rotation and scale changed outputs
Improved animation speed

Version 0.9.68 Jan 27, 2022

Support FBX models

Version 0.9.69 Jan 28, 2022

New version of Assimp library.

Version 0.9.77 Feb 15, 2022

Supports embedded textures in FBX models

Version 0.9.79 Mar 4, 2022

Added support for joysticks on HP Reverb VR hardware and fixes for textures on QuadButtons and Quads

Version 0.9.80 Mar 7, 2022

texture issues with quads and quad buttons

Version 0.9.81 Mar 8, 2022

fixes the issue with the controller/movers not controlling multiple objects

+* The "change parent" button is experimental and may or may not work. You cannot reparent to anything other than a composite and it gives no indication of this - and the object may jump or reorient badly
-So i think next i do a few things:  1) get you repeat on property dialog buttons 2) confirm dialog for delete 3) edit mode representation for composites, skyboxes and other non visible things 4) add a reparent button to the property dialog.
+* There is as yet no confirm dialog for delete, but the delete button is moved to a safer location

+* Implement enhanced buttons for doing stuff on property dialog. Property dialog now shows both the path and the parent path and has obvious buttons for modifying the parent, deleting the object, and changing the object you are editing. These functions have been moved off the ribbon into the main dialog area and enhanced with labels to make it obvious what is going on. Only the KB button remains on the ribbon
-Oh and make text quads right way round

-My suspicion is that that will be enough for laz to work in the new version, but could you verify that?

-Ie if there is anything else i can get it

-Probably also solve this steam id problem

+* Resurrect the visual edit mode, and make this an explicit mode on the edit palette. When edit is selected, go to this mode, which allows the interactive adjustment of things like lights.
-Laz, this should address your concerns with the fiddly buttons.  Let me know by what percentage you want to size various things like the property dialog and menu buttons down.  I can also compress the property dialog a bit with less space between the fields.  this should leave more space for the keyboard
+* Implement rotate and translate on the light rep, patch this through to the relevant object properties
+* Fix a problem where property editor changes to the light properties didn't go immediately into the light, but required a zone reload

-known issues (should be filed as bugs):
-a) if you quickly click and release on something like a light rep,
-the meta menu will show up, but this requires some work to get it
-working properly. Can be ignored for now
-b) The rotate mode on light reps is a little weird - the adjustment
-rings will change scale in an unstable way. This is something to
-do with lights not really having a scale. Some investigation is needed
-here. It is useable however. (edited)
