• Vehicle rotation basics working: We can now spawn the vehicles with any rotation. Some minor usability problems are to be fixed in the upcoming days.
  
• 64 Bit support basics added: We added support for 64 bit for Torque3D and it was quite some work to get 64 bit support working well with all the libraries and the new Lua integration.
  
• Added little launcher that will launch the 32 bits (x86) or 64 bits (x64) version, depending on the operating system. The real binaries are now in separate folders as this is the only possible workaround.
  
• Added internationalization basics to the user interface. Not done at all yet, still WIP (needs to use the steam language if available)
  
• Lua basics integrated into Torque3D. We slowly replace the integrated scripting language with Lua.
  
• FMod re-integration tests (not published, for internal testing only)
  
• OpenAL sound backend integrated
  
• Joystick absolute axis support for spacemouse 3d support (also input map added for that)
  
• Mouse Cursor hiding: It hides itself automatically now if no activity is detected for a certain amount of time. This function is disabled for some special cases (cefdev, mainmenu)
  
• Triggers now work with the new T3D Lua
  
• new Thrustmaster TX F458 wheel input mapping
  
• The console now defaults to T3D Lua, also improved support for the other languages in there.
  
• added Fanatec Base v2 input mapping basics
  
• T3D Material selector defaulting to 100 materials per page, more materials per page possible now
  
• Improved Wheel debug UI App

• Sync with latest Torque3D upstream (lots of bugfixes, some minor new features)
  
• more bugfixing on the new Scene Octree
  
• fixed lots of memory problems, errors and potential crashes, as well as used, uninitialized variables that were found during static code analysis.
  
• fixed bug #155 where objects rotation modified its scale: http://redmine.beamng.com/issues/155
  
• Changed default decalBias for fix DecalRoads render too high over terrain.
  
• 3D roads now have collision
  
• Fixed crash to desktop bug on async shader compilation
  
• Fixed userpath usage: now the file is called 'userpath.ini' and works well with relative paths. (Also added examples to that file)
  
• Fixed some bugs on the XInput manager, improved xinput cache file format, added some default known controllers
  
• Lua FFB code now knows about the attached devices and can get the config
  
• Fixed invalid normals on 3d mesh loading
  
• Improved D3D9 fatal error messages: Now they produce a messagebox and show it to the user instead of the game failing in some undetermined way.

• Fixed 360 controller zoom buttons sticking
  
• Fixed occlusion handler for the headlights shining through under certain conditions
  
• Fixed several memory issues with the game
  
• Fixed combo box render bug within the UI, renders correctly now
  
• Fixed laggy main menu: reverted to older CEF version to use the software-only rendering which is a lot faster and easier on the CPU/GPU
  
• Fixed filesystem file change notifications: working recursively now, removing the need for empty directories inside the cache folder.
  
• Fixed 'Parts Configuration' dialog from always popping up when hitting ctrl+r
  
• Removed BeamNG watermark logo from the bottom left corner finally
  
• re-encoded mainmenu videos to 720p for increased performance
  
• Fixed bad video mode bug where the game's res could end up bigger than the current screen's resolution.

• Fixed stretching parts on T75 when certain parts fell off
  
• Textured D15 flatbed trailer
  
• Lots of changes and fixes for T75 deformation
  
• Other minor vehicle tweaks and fixes
  
• Hamster wheel now detachable

• Added tents and stadium lights to Hirochi Raceway
  
• Added parking lot to HR
  
• Added corner distance signs to HR
  
• Improved roadside visuals for HR by adding in lined edging to suggest maintenance + road materials
  
• Improved road barriers and rumble strips on HR (rumbles aren't so high anymore)
  
• Improved the lighting on HR and ECA (the distance is more blue now, slight ambient changes as well)
  
• Improved terrain and grass colors for HR
  
• More work on the details of HR (more forest, decals, etc), improvements and texture additions
  
• Minor adjustments and additions to ECA
  
• Fixed a heightmap issue on ECA (there was a sharp pyramid sticking out of the road)
  
• Removed duplicate car on Small Island (it was sitting in the ocean)

• new startup screen
  
• Force Feedback basics (disabled by default), not working out of the box yet, might damage your hardware, try on your own risk. FF is currently always on for the first wheel and it might be inverted depending on your hardware.
  
• Asynchronous shader compilation: reducing lag/halts when playing, funky material loading at startup now but reducing the loading times significantly
  
• FPS limiter: Max FPS is currently hardcoded to 60 to allow a smoother gameplay experience, will be set-able later on.
  
• Improve speed of generation for grass and other small objects when camera are moving: this fixes the microlag that occurs when driving fast.
  
• New HTML GUI for options/settings (supports live changes) (WIP)
  
• New CTRL + Space vehicle selector with filters and factory colors
  
• Force Feedback Debug app: we wrote some helper applications that display the steering wheel position vs the applied force feedback
  
• Lua integration into Torque3D for simpler controller binding workflow (just started with it, WIP)

• Parts Chooser is completely broken as we are in the transition phase from the old version that uses the legacy T3D GUI towards the new HTML version.
  
• Input Tester is broken
