Speed optimizations to slope software rendering.
Small optimizations to software depthbuffer.
Optimizations to multithreading walls software rendering.
Uncapped framerate scales better in multi-core CPUs.
Added interpolatereducelag console variable. When set, it will try to reduce lag. Default is "false".
New menu for uncapped framerate (Options/Display/Advanced/Uncapped FrameRate).
More efficient segs clipping to speedup rendering of huge maps.
Added r_voxellightmapaccuracy console variable. Values are 0, 1 & 2 for low, normal & high accuracy. Default is 1. It can be set from the Lightmap menu.
Speed optimization to the software rendering lightmap.
Speed optimizations to voxel software rendering.
Improved uncapped framerate integrity and performance.
Proper windowed mode (Software & OpenGL).
The player can choose to use CAPS LOCK for autorun.
Version 2.0.7 build 732 - (20220318)
-----------------------
Fixed seg rendering in lines from (0, 0) point.
Version 2.0.7 build 731 - (20220317)
-----------------------
Added -wandstart command line parameter.
Prepare drawseg list in separate thread in software rendering.
Use general purpose threads in 8 bit software rendering blit.
Speed optimizations in R_PointToAngleEx().
Speed optimizations of big maps in software rendering.
Fixed misspelled of "joystick" in the menus.
Fixed UMAPINFO possible warning message when parsing multi-strings.
Better multithreading scaling in software mode (prepare clipping info for sprites & voxels).
Fixed crosshair drawing in OpenGL mode.
Added support for tall patches in PNG format.
More robust uncapped framerate.
Speed optimizations to the OpenGL rendering.
Fixes to 3d collisions of actors moving up or down other actors.
Default sound channels raised to 32, maximum sound channels raised to 64.
Key bindings for the AUTOMAP keys.
Improved multithreading handling in software rendering mode.
Added dotestactivethreads console variable, when it's set to true (default) the engine will tweak active threads without workload.
Version 2.0.7 build 730 - (20220302)
-----------------------
Fixed flags in A_ChangeVelocity() ACTORDEF function.
Export info tables to Pascal.
Added ExportInfoPascal, InfoExportPascal, ExportInfoPascalBI, InfoExportPascalBI, ExportInfoPascalBuiltIn & InfoExportPascalBuiltIn console commands.
