This maintenance release now permits you to save
and undo material changes. Several shortcuts were
added to speed operations, such as a new "repeat
material change" option. A crash which occurred
when loading a tile with no terrain has been
eliminated. Refresh bugs in the object library
window are gone. Several enhancements from the
next 0.4 branch have been backported.
The biggest change in this release is the switch from GTS to CGAL for computational geometry to achieve better reliability. Some work has also been put on map fragments to allow arbitrary, polygonal, image boundary, and to offer USGS image download from terraserver-usa servers. Usability enhancements are also there, including a more versatile export dialog.
This release is intended to follow recent changes made to the FlightGear
project: API changes in SimGear, a new scenery layout, and shared
objects. Multiple path and Terrain subfolders are now fully supported.
Several bugs have been fixed and GTS 0.7.2 is now required.
This is a major rewrite to drop the dependency on the unstable fltk 2.
fltk 1.1.4 is now required. New features include UTM support and the
ability to manually change face material.
Many bugs have been fixed. FlightGear sceneries can be imported by choosing the corresponding tile files. FlightGear can be started from the location indicated by the mouse.
