====== L3DT release 2.3a ======

Released on the 16th of July, 2005 ([[http://www.bundysoft.com/news/doku.php?id=l3dt:ann:v2.3a|see announcement]])

===== Changes =====

  * User interface
    * Users can store and recall preferred settings in most wizard dialogs using the [[l3dt:userguide:wizards#wizard presets bar|presets bar]].
    * The wizard dialogs now support display DPIs other than 96dpi (normal).
    * Added a link to off-line documentation in the help menu.
  * Light mapping
    * The transmission coefficients for water surfaces are now calculated using the Fresnel equations, giving physically accurate elevation angle dependence (see [[l3dt:algorithms:lm#light_absorption_by_water|water effects|algorithms page]]).
  * Bug fixes
    * Fixed map display where the map didn't resize when the window was resized (only happened during calculations).
    * Fixed water mapping routine where odd-numbered side-lengths were mismanaged.
    * Fixed perlin generator where non-multiple-of-64 side-lengths were mismanaged.
    * Fixed 'import design map' wizard bug that prevented the generation of mosaic maps.
    * Fixed 'select heightfield algorithms' wizard bug (selection of algorithm from list after hitting the '<< prev.' button was buggy).
    * Fixed L3DTVi2 compatibility with new ATI cards that support OpenGL 2.0.
  * Installer
    * Built new installer using the [[http://nsis.sourceforge.net/|NullSoft Scriptable Install System]] (NSIS).
    * Included L3DTVi2 and documentation in the installer package.
