0.6.3: Technical/API - Light updates are now processed in parallel. - The light updater is now more selective of the levels it processes, fixing a memory leak. 0.6.2: Update to 1.18.2 0.6.1: Fixes - Fix crash when loading block entities for Flywheel to render, most common when exploring the end. - Fix occasional visual artifacts when enabling optifine shaders. Technical/API - Added more debug information to the F3 screen. - Distance update limiting can now be disabled. 0.6.0: With this release, Flywheel is no longer needed on servers! Forge finally has client commands, and the /flywheel command now takes advantage of this. Fixes - Fix crash when running with sodium/magnesium. Technical/API - Backend is now a static class. - Shaders are now compiled on-the-fly and cached. - Significantly reduced the amount of boilerplate needed in instancing shaders. - Struct types no longer need to be registered ahead of time. - Simplify unnecessarily complicated game state system. 0.5.1: Fixes - Fix crash on resource reload with backend off - Fix artifacts while using Optifine shaders - Fix crash when trying to access biomes in a VirtualRenderWorld Technical/API - Refactor instance renderer registration to separate client and server logic (thanks Pepper!) - VirtualRenderWorlds now have a "biomeOffset" field which gets added when looking up biomes - Added GlStateTracker which hooks into GlStateManager to track changes in buffer, vertex array, and program bindings 0.5.0a: Fixes - Address crash experienced by some users while rendering any tile. - Fix crash caused by loading a world with flywheel backend off. 0.5.0: New - Added parallel batching backend, effectively a CPU instancer. - Now partially compatible with starlight. Technical/API - Much more flexible vertex formats. - Do instance updates/ticking entirely async. 0.4.2-rc: Fixes - Partially fix crash on intel and mesa drivers (needs Create to update) - Fix garbage rendering on AMD GPUs 0.4.1: Update to 1.18.1 Changes - Use cylindrical fog to match vanilla Fixes - Fix crash affecting systems that don't support persistent mapping - Fix crash when Create contraptions extend below Y=0 - Fix Create contraptions having misaligned light when launched after world load - Fix minecarts disappearing on chunk reload 0.4.0: Update to 1.18 Fixes - Fix potential nullpointer rendering breaking overlay - Fix inconsistency in minecart model - Fix memory leak when instance worlds get reset Technical/API - No more MaterialSpec, everything is StructType - Move most user facing interfaces to flywheel.api package - Refactor InstanceData to have no package private fields - Rename many interfaces - All materials use the same vertex format: UNLIT_MODEL - call #tick and #beginFrame on instance creation - Fixes weird delay in object appearance when reloading chunks - Add instances when chunks are built for rendering - Server worlds are not flywheel worlds
