- New paintengine with multilayer colour painting on 8 extra layers.
Similar like in popular 2d paint programs you can turn the visibility of each layer on and off and you can change the opacity for it. All 8 layers will be rendered into one single colour texture, so no extra texture slot required. - Automatic lightmap generation and a GUI control for it.
- Migrated to a lot newer versions of the libraries Artifex is based upon. Ogre 1.72 (stability), PagedGeometry 1.14 (grass can receive lighting).
- Changed the mousepointer to native so it no longer disappears. Right mouse still works to drag GUI elements. Something many wished for.
- Reworked and improved the existing terrain shader material.
- New project templates: A triplanar rendering shader to avoid texture stretching upslopes. A singlepass shader without normalmapping.
- New texture bar control to navigate through the textures for texture painting and editing.
- Improved memory handling to reduce leaks and crashes.
- Overhaul of most of the GUI and workflow to improve the user experience.
- Improved the texture manipulation control and made it accessible via texture bar.
- New system for filepath and filename handling.
Note: The undo system has been deactivated for this version of the beta, it will be put in again soon.
