Known Issues

• We are still looking into the Intel Integrated GPU-related performance regressions, especially on Mac.
• We are also looking into the Intel Integrated GPU-related crashes on Windows.
• Crossbows & slings have a split/twisted appearance and animation. A fix is planned for 8165. 

Fixes

• A crash has been fixed with the toolset that would trigger when re-opening a conversation from search results.
• The toolset should now run on Wine again.
• Toolset script compiler no longer crashes when attempting to include a missing script.
• The toolset now defaults to the NWN user directory when im/exporting erfs.
• The camera bounds as configurable in the .ini now default to 1.69 values (unlocked).
• Toolset crash when deleting an area with a uppercase resref was fixed.
• The multiplayer server list doesn’t select a random server on open anymore.
• The multiplayer server view now displays the server game type properly.
• Combining parts no longer causes some geometry to sometimes disappear.
• Normal mapped static lighting no longer causes lighting to be black for some static geometry.
• Skin animations for parts that are attached now synch up exactly to the attached object and will no longer animate a few frames behind in certain situations.
• Skybox position is now centered on the character, so skybox warping will no longer be apparent when you’re at the edge of large maps.

Features

• Game and server binaries now error out if no data files can be found, instead of crashing.
• The console open/close key can now be typed in the game chat bar.
• Some further memleaks in the Toolset were fixed.
