=============

Changes:

  * Numerous bug fixes
  * Additional Lua functionality (see Lua.html)
  * Support for Apple Silicon
  * Improved UPnP router configuration support (now using miniupnp)
  * Adds an FOV override slider and warning
  * Adds a checkbox for native file dialogs (mac OS and Windows only)

  * Bug fixes
  * Additional Lua functionality (see Lua.html)
  * macOS: support for Apple Silicon
  * Updated UPnP router configuration support (now using miniupnp)
  * Add an FOV override slider and warning
  * macOS and Windows: added a checkbox for native file dialogs
  * Removed high-res plugins from all-in-one downloads. There are many more \ 
options now than there were when we started bundling
    them, so this will give users more flexibility. Links to the old textures \ 
and a guide to hi-res textures will be provided soon;
    in the meantime the data files with hi-res plugins can be found in the 1.4 \ 
release.

Aleph One 1.4
=============

Note: This release is not network compatible with Aleph One 1.3 and earlier.

Changes:

  * Adds support for Lua ephemera: optional scripted effects like precipitation \ 
or gore, that can be turned on and off without
    affecting saved games, films, and net games
  * Adds a new "Editor" mode that integrates better with Weland for \ 
seamless visual mode editing
  * Adds new high frame rate interpolation. Choose 30 fps for authentic classic \ 
play, 60 fps or 120 fps capped, or unlimited fps
  * Adds many new Lua API functions. See Lua.html for details
  * Adds support for weapon hot keys. Hot keys 1-9 switch weapons, but can be \ 
overridden by Lua scripts; hot keys 10-12 are
    reserved for Lua scripts
  * Restores some retro/nostalgia features in the software renderer: \ 
every-other-line mode, and 8-bit color
  * MML/Lua can now set the maximum inventory on a per-difficulty level. This \ 
should add versatility for balancing difficulty in
    new scenarios

1.4rc1 Pre-release
==================

Changes since 1.4pre2:

  * add support for weapon hotkeys; hotkeys 1-9 switch weapons, but can be \ 
overridden by Lua; and another 3 hotkeys are available
    for Lua

every-other-lines mode, and 8-bit mode
  * MML/Lua can now set the maximum inventory on a per-difficulty level
  * numerous new Lua API additions
  * bug fixes

Note: Aleph One 1.4rc1 is not network compatible with previous versions, due to \ 
the addition of hotkeys

1.4pre2 Pre-release
===================

Changes:

  * High frame rate interpolation; choose 30 fps for authentic classic play, 60 \ 
fps or 120 fps capped, or unlimited fps
  * New Lua API functions
  * Bug fixes

1.4pre1 Pre-release
===================

This is a preview release, with support for ephemera (optional scripted render \ 
effects like precipitation or extra gore) and a new
"editor" mode that integrates better with Weland 1.4.5

Aleph One 1.3.1

res plugins are still included but are not enabled
    by default

Aleph One 1.3a1
===============

This is a pre-release to allow community members to assist in testing some \ 
internal code changes. Please see the Pfhorums thread if
you would like to help.

The latest stable release is: Aleph One 1.2.1

Aleph One 1.2.1
===============

The 1.2.1 release fixes a crashing bug when carnage message MML is used. \ 
Otherwise it is identical to the 1.2 release.

Aleph One 1.2
=============

The Aleph One 1.2 release features online leaderboards and game statistics, a \ 
streamlined saved-game system, and full multiplayer
support for the original Marathon game. This release also includes a number of \ 
other new features and bug fixes.

If you do not use the bundled downloads, we recommend that you update your \ 
scenario files. Each game includes a new plugin for the
online leaderboards, and the Marathon scenario includes an important \ 
compatibility fix.

Aleph One 1.2 is not network compatible with the previous stable release.

Online features

Aleph One now integrates with the online leaderboards and player stats at \ 
lhowon.org. Sign up within Aleph One to send your
Marathon, Marathon 2, and Marathon Infinity game results to lhowon.org, where \ 
you can see your overall win percentage, kill totals,
and more.

From the new "Internet" preferences section, you can register your \ 
chat name, opt in to player stats, and configure other options
relating to online play.

Saved games

Saving your game no longer stops the action until you type in a name. Each time \ 
you use a pattern buffer, a new saved game is
created. The "Continue Saved Game" dialog shows you the in-game \ 
location, date, and game time for every save. Use the "Load Other"
button to open a saved game from an earlier version of Aleph One.

Marathon compatibility

  * Cooperative play is now supported in the original Marathon scenario
  * Net games no longer use incorrect physics models
  * Goal checking in repair levels now matches the original game
  * Grenade trajectory in low-gravity levels now matches the original game
  * Certain terminals and rechargers could be activated when they shouldn't have \ 
been. You must use the 1.2 scenario data files to
    get this update.
  * If you have an existing saved game on an "exploration" level, you \ 
may need to re-explore the level before you can exit. We
    apologize for the inconvenience.

Lua

  * Additions to the Lua API:
      - Triggers.projectile_created()
      - Game.dead_players_drop_items
      - Level.index
      - Level.map_checksum
      - Line.visible_on_automap
      - Polygon.visible_on_automap
  * Additions to the Lua HUD API:
      - Level.name
      - Level.index
      - Level.map_checksum
  * Custom fields on projectiles, monsters, etc. are cleared when the object is \ 
destroyed
  * Lua error messages contain more diagnostic info
  * Player:find_action_key_target() no longer triggers side effects

Other changes

  * New preferences:
      - Camera Bobbing (Graphics) — if disabled, the camera and weapon will \ 
remain steady, to reduce motion sickness
      - Join Pregame Lobby by Default (Internet -> Pregame Lobby) — if \ 
checked, when you choose "Join Network Game", Aleph One
        automatically presses "Find Internet Game" on the next screen. \ 
Hold down the Alt (Option) key to join a local game.
      - Use Netscript in Films, Netscript File (Environment) — use these \ 
preferences to play back films of games recorded with
        netscripts. Solo Lua scripts are no longer loaded during playback of net \ 
game films.
  * Logging in to the pregame lobby uses HTTPS to protect your password
  * The editing cursor in text fields can be moved with the arrow keys or the mouse
  * Command history in the Lua/chat console can be accessed with the up and down \ 
arrow keys
  * Team color selection in the Join dialog is disabled when the game does not \ 
support teams
  * Plugin API changes:
      - Scenario compatibility, to create plugins that load only for specific \ 
scenarios
      - More combinations of items are allowed within a single plugin
  * The Plugins dialog (Preferences > Environment > Plugins) lists the \ 
components of each plugin
  * Lua HUD support is available by plugin only
  * A custom port can be used when gathering net games. The port number can only \ 
be changed by editing the XML preferences file.

  * <player light="..."> MML setting respected in OpenGL \ 
(Shader) renderer
  * Motion sensor on magnetic levels works properly when frame rate lags (SF #372)
  * Styled chat names display properly in pregame lobby game info dialog

Platform-specific fixes

  * Linux:
      - A new configure script now succeeds when optional dependencies are \ 
missing. The script also summarizes which features are
        enabled. Packagers should review the configure options, which have changed.
      - Aleph One builds and runs with more versions of FFmpeg / libav (SF #576, \ 
#578, #582)

  * Plugins ignore references to non-existent files
  * Popping is reduced in certain ambient sounds
  * Various MML settings are correctly reset when changing levels
  * Some common but unhelpful messages are no longer written to the log file
