<h2 class="appendixsec"> C.5 Release Notes from 0.92 to 0.94 </h2>
<p>This section documents the major changes between versions 0.92 and 0.94 of of
Crystal Space.
</p>
<a name="1"></a>
<h3 class="subheading"> Loader and Saver Changes </h3>
<p>All plugins implementing <samp>‘iLoaderPlugin’</samp> will have to be changed
since the material and mesh factory lists are now replaced with a
<samp>‘iLoaderContext’</samp> parameter.
</p>
<p>This change also means that <code>iTerrFuncState::LoadMaterialGroup()</code>
now expects an <samp>‘iLoaderContext’</samp> instead of <samp>‘iMaterialList’</samp>.
</p>
<p><em>Warning</em>: This loader change means that the searching restricted
on the current region now actually works. This means that by default
when loading a map it will <em>only</em> find objects defined in this map.
</p>
<p>The <samp>‘iSaverPlugin’</samp> interface has also changed. It now uses an
<samp>‘iFile’</samp> parameter instead of <samp>‘iStrVector’</samp>.
</p>
<a name="2"></a>
<h3 class="subheading"> iCamera Changes </h3>
<p>Added <code>iCamera::SetFarPlane()</code> and changed <code>iCamera::GetFarPlane()</code>
to return a pointer to the far plane. This function will return null if
no far plane is used.
</p>
<p>The following constants have been renamed in order to avoid pollution of the
global namespace:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<code>VEC_FORWARD</code> => <code>CS_VEC_FORWARD</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_BACKWARD</code> => <code>CS_VEC_BACKWARD</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_RIGHT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_RIGHT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_LEFT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_LEFT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_UP</code> => <code>CS_VEC_UP</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_DOWN</code> => <code>CS_VEC_DOWN</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_ROT_RIGHT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_ROT_RIGHT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_ROT_LEFT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_ROT_LEFT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_TILT_RIGHT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_TILT_RIGHT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_TILT_LEFT</code> => <code>CS_VEC_TILT_LEFT</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_TILT_UP</code> => <code>CS_VEC_TILT_UP</code>
</li><li>
<code>VEC_TILT_DOWN</code> => <code>CS_VEC_TILT_DOWN</code>
</li></ul>
<a name="3"></a>
<h3 class="subheading"> Engine Changes </h3>
<p>Far plane handling in the engine has changed. Polygons are no longer
clipped exactly to the far plane but instead the polygons are rejected
which are fully behind the far plane.
</p>
<p><code>iEngine::LoadMeshFactory()</code> and <code>iEngine::LoadMeshWrapper()</code>
used to have a <samp>‘classId’</samp> parameter. That parameter has now been removed.
</p>
<a name="4"></a>
<h3 class="subheading"> Various Changes </h3>
<p><code>csPlane3::ClipPolygon()</code> will now by default consider the
polygon to be visible on the negative side of the plane
(<code>csPlane3::Classify()</code>) as opposed to the positive side like
it used to be. It now has a third parameter <samp>‘reversed’</samp> which
you can set to <code>true</code> so that it behaves again as before.
</p>
<a name="5"></a>
<h3 class="subheading"> Various Constant Changes </h3>
