RE: August 2011
Released for Windows:
-local lights (LightPoint, LightSqr, LightCone) parameter "Bool shadow" in "add" method has been changed to "Flt shadows_opacity" (old parameters will work correctly as old "false" is equal to "0.0" opacity which disables shadows, and "true" is equal to "1.0" opacity which is default full shadowing), this can be used to manually blend in and out shadowing for only few lights (nearest to camera) and keep distant lights without shadows to improve performance
-Edit::Blocks mesh building now accepts neighbor blocks pointers which when used can reduce the number of generated triangles and include neighbor blocks in ambient occlusion calculation
-small fix to Edit::Blocks phys body generation
-Edit::Blocks phys generation now accepts body Matrix instead of world position which additionally allows to specify custom orientation and scale
-destructible and animatable objects will now be included in mini-map generation
-decreased mini map generation viewport fov to work better with maps with objects placed very high, and tweaked shadow biasing to work better with smaller fov
-replaced LightCone angle,angle_range members with 'falloff' (0..1), angle range is now taken from pyramid.scale member
-fixed rendering cone light shadows with pyramid.scale!=1
-game object light cone can now accept object parameters "angle" and "falloff" (just like sample "sdk/obj/light/cone.obj")
-new documentation topic "server side/client server communication"
-updated shader files inside engine.pak (Ineisis Lite data files need to be re-downloaded)
-updated Ineisis Lite sources (small fixes)
-updated Ineisis Lite documentation and moved it from Source Package to Esenthel Wiki and Esenthel .chm Documentation

RE: August 2011

-Editor will now ask if save changes to files (Editor: material, Model Editor: mesh, skeleton, animation, physical body, particles, Gui Editor: objects, World Editor: world, object params) on Editor exit
-setting parameters of WorldSettings class is now done by usage of methods, because of that you don't need to set heightmap resolution values to 129, you can set 128 and it will be automatically adjusted to 129
-fixed Code Editor autocomplete when after "if(..)" codes
-Data Browser Verify Paths button will now list also files that are not found
-highlighting skeleton bones in Model Editor will now draw parent-child connections
-Material Editor slidebars are now oriented horizontally so text descriptions can fit more characters
