The wxWidgets port of SLADE is coming along nicely, and if it keeps going at this rate it'll be ready early february. All I have left to do now is finish some of the UI stuff and get it to compile in linux/mingw.

To kick off 2006, here's version 1.02 of SLADE:

-> Added keys to copy/paste Sidedef data in 3d mode
-> Texture browser textures can be sorted by usage frequency
-> Status bar on the editor window
-> Improvements to line drawing (drawing 'over' vertices now works correctly)
-> Changed input system to include mouse buttons, so now they are properly configurable
-> Added keys to increase/decrease sector(s) light level in 2d mode (; and ' by default)
-> Grid snap is now toggleable
-> Bugfixes etc

I've actually been sitting on this for a while, just haven't gotten around to releasing it until now. So what's next? I've started porting the GUI over to wxWidgets, which works much better in windows than GTK (and uses GTK in linux :P). From a coding point of view it's much easier to work with since it is written in c++ rather than c. Anyway I'll probably have the first wxWidgets version out sometime in february or march, which will be version 1.1.

SLADE v1.01 is here. New stuff here:

-> Copy+Paste
-> 3d mode resolution selection
-> Fixed some problems with slopes in 3d mode
-> Window properties are now saved
-> Scroll wheel now works in the 2d editor (zoom in/out)

There are also plenty of bugfixes too. As always, grab it from the downloads section right now :P

I've uploaded a patch for v1.0 (v1.0a) that fixes a few bugs and adds a few minor features. Here's some changelog stuff:

+ Added functionality to the 'New Map' button on the wad manager window
* Sometimes the map/grid lists wouldn't update correctly (casing them to disappear at certain times)
* PNG files missing an alpha channel wouldn't load correctly
* Starting 3d mode with no map open would crash
+ Added option to invert the mouse Y axis in 3d mode
+ Gravity in 3d mode is now toggleable
~ A message is now shown if a hexen format map is loaded when a non-hexen format game is selected
* Textures weren't reloading properly (I wasn't clearing the PNAMES data)

Well it's been a few months, and now finally I am ready to release SLADE v1.0, now with GTK ;) Head on over to the downloads section to get it. If you have any problems with it, post over at the forum or contact me via IRC (#zdoom on irc.oftc.net). Anyway have fun and that ;)
