A few annoying regressions in R58 was fixed. A safe upgrade for everyone. I also think the world has lost interest in the API3 branch so no more releases there. That is all.

Python 3.10 or 3.8 is now required. Yay for super regular Python releases. The rest is more or less bug fixes. Have fun.

It happened a while ago and bugs got fixed. That’s all.

As usual all major new releases have a lot of bugs. Now there are a lot fewer.

• Performance fix for large resolution (4k+)
• Fix memory leak in VFW when reloading script
• Make working dir behavior match API3 again
• Lots of other small fixes

Now only those pesky people who use the output() function in Python have poor performance.

Starting from today there will separate builds of the new audio branch (master) and the old (api3) branch provided for those who need full compatibility with old scripts.

The biggest fixes in this release is that the handling of pow in expr has been fixed and no longer produces unexpected output. There’s also a new vsrepo included that once again works. That’s about it. It’s the life of a maintenance branch where only super serious things will be fixed.

If you’re wondering why it’s taken so long since the previous release it’s partly due to R52 having surprisingly few bugs. You could say that I’m a too good coder (on occasion). The new R53 release mainly exists to add Python 3.9 support to windows and apply a few contributes bugfixes.

Regression fixes for R51. Everyone should update from R51.

It’s not interesting because it’s all bug fixes and nothing else really. That’s because I’ve been busy working on audio support (99% done) and a big API update (~90% done) so come back for that in a few weeks. That’ll need a huge post.

R50 is a pure regression fix release and has nothing new of interest. Install it now!

R51 will probably have lots of changes merge and maybe there’ll be a new audio test build soon too.
