Summary of changes for the update of Ya3dag V 1.20.

• High resolution texture support for Ya3dag and Qoole (the .bsp model editor).
• All textures for the .bsp models were revised. There are now about 2600 textures. Color depth is 24 bit. Many of them have double resolution.
• Phong shading for .bsp models. Models with curved surfaces now appear smooth. Phong shading is not yet working perfectly. However, the results are impressive.
• If the current weapon is a spell, then there is a visual effect on the player's hand (for Q3 player models only).
• Ya3dag Leveleditor
  • For misc_actor, the player models are grouped by model. Per playermodel there is now a subdirectory with the skins grouped together. This results in faster access of models/skins for misc_actor.
  • The brightness of lava can be adjusted in 3 steps.
• Bugfixes
  • Q3 schader script
    Function: rgbGen wave
    Multiply with and add of was done twice.
  • func_train model into nirvana.
  • Crash after loading level with a func_train.
  • LoadJPG() function, the final FS_FreeFile() of the image raw data was missing.
  • After changing levels, Q3 Player models lost the current weapon model (the weapon holding in the hand).
• And many more small changes.
