Changelog for Superfighters Deluxe 1.5.0 update preview.

An update preview for Superfighters Deluxe is available @everyone.

The map editor and dedicated server tool is not available in this update preview yet!
This preview is perfect for you and your friends who want to play together using Steam Network connectivity (see notes below). You no longer have to configuring port forwarding.

Here's the full changelog:

• Special thanks to Odex for his work with this update!

• SFD is now 64 bit using FNA framework instead of XNA framework. SFD now requires:
  • 64 bit Windows.
  • DirectX 11 compatible graphics.
  • .NET Framework 4.7.2 (Included in Windows 11 and Windows 10 April 2018 Update. Older versions of Windows need to install .NET Framework 4.7.2 separately).

• Online play updated to use Steamworks Networking.

• As a result of the above changes:

  • Improved connectivity as a result of Steamworks Networking. SFD now rely on Steamworks Networking backend to list, discover and connect to hosted games and hosted servers.
  • Join a friend's game directly via your Steam's friend list and "Join game" feature.
  • Improved Gamepad support as a result of FNA framework and various bug fixes and improvements to Gamepad support. Most controllers now work out-of-the-box and can be plugged in anytime.
  • DirectX11 rendering which requires DirectX 11 compatible graphics.
  • Optional OpenGL rendering by adding ENV_FNA3D_FORCE_DRIVER=OpenGL to your config.ini file in your Documents/Superfighters Deluxe folder.
  • Resolutions beyond 2048x2048 now supported thanks to FNA framework.
  • Public games in the game browser show estimated ping using Steam functionality.

• IUser.ConnectionIP - Obsolete. This now returns a fake (generated) IP.

• IUser.AccountName - Still returns the user's profile name in Steam (which can be changed).
• Script Editor now has code highlighting.
• Script Editor now has search and find functionality.
• Added script API examples and tutorials available directly in the map Script Editor. (Previously available on MythoLogic Interactive's old forum.)
• ElevatorHelper no longer plays the 'ding' sound the first 300 ms of map start to avoid the 'ding' sound playing when starting a map with elevators.

• Pressing back in menues now navigates to the Back/Cancel/Exit button first before closing the menu.
• Reduced resource usage for clothing items and better handling of texture usage related to items to reduce memory usage, cpu usage and potential stutter.
• Fixed some issues when interacting with scroll bars in menues using only the mouse.
• Fixed navigation issues in the profiles menu when using keyboard or gamepad.
• Suppressed the "Can't find effect 'HIT'" message.
• Other fixes, tweaks and improvements.
